Re: nd-notation. How to count anything in tp?

Ugh! tenpo would be at best a pun for the englishification of multiplication! OK, now that I've calmed down, maybe multiple tenpo (occurances) of adding the number...

Re: nd-notation. How to count anything in tp?

Re: lukin e nanpa mute

I was casually ruminating about day and month names today, partly because Japanese is so boring in that regard (although I have a list of antique Japanese month names somewhere, usually they just number the months). And I recall reading somewhere that Tolkien did a large part of his extra writing to...
