Question for my #Japanese speaking friends:

I'd like to write a small thank you note for our guide before we leave because she has been the most patient and kind person I've ever met amongst a difficult group of older British tourists ... and then the two of us.

Mostly the note will be in English, but I'd like a short phrase in Japanese at the beginning to say thank you. It will be vertical.

Is there something better than ありがとうございます?

My biggest complaint about #Mastodon, at the moment, is the inability to #translate posts. Being given the option to translate a post, from a language you don't speak, should be on by default. There are some posts I can click an option to translate and others (see example image), I can't.

It does bug me as I would very much like to know what these #Japanese posts are saying, especially those that relate to #anime.

New #introduction post!

I'm Alicia and I'm a fibre artist (#dyeing #handspinning #felting #needlefelting #weaving #crochet #embroidery #upcycling #sewing) with interests in #mandala #art #psychedelicart #sacredgeometry #neurographicart and #watercolors.

My family and I run a business called @Fibre2Fabric where we dye all sorts of exotic #fibre #yarn, and #fabric.

I live in the country with my partner and our 6 #cats, 3 #dogs, #snake and #crestedgecko where I enjoy my many interests. (#gardening #plants #herbalism #fungi #music #ukulele #piano #dancing #flowart #reading #writing #tarot #poetry #haiku #cozygames and I'm getting more into #opensource / #linux)

When I say flow art, I mean spinning props like #hulahoop #leviwand #puppyhammer #poi #staff #silkfans #firefans etc.

I love #languagelearning. I studied #German and #Spanish as a kid, took #Japanese in uni, and I'm currently studying #ASL #Cree #Tokipona #Spanish and #Chinese. I also dabble in #French and #Latin sometimes and I'm learning #Greggshorthand to write faster. Cree is my favourite language and Spanish is my second.

I've been cursed since childhood with that lovely trifecta of #heds #pots and #mcas. Healing slowly but surely.

Hope I get to meet even more cool people the algorithms would normally drown out on other social media sites. I love it here!

I like #donkeys. You should too.[1]

You can get lots of lovely donkey posts in your feed by following the #asstodon tag.

I have no idea why, but a large fraction of the posts I see are from users whose first language is French. I don't speak it, but I really like seeing other people talking about the things they're interested in or passionate about in their language of origin. Electronics hobbyists in Swedish, pet enthusiasts in Japanese, Euro politics in German or Spanish, on and on...
