AnnoyedCops 04/29/20 5:38:53 PM #5:	Yeah it does not necessarily mean "It's" going to be weird. Could be he, she, they, etc. Google translate is good for getting the gist of a text but often has inaccuracies.

zebatov 04/29/20 7:12:22 PM #10:	Ikimasu is a polite verb (plain form is iku) that means go. I think it means literally move from here to there. Go(ing) to the store. Not sure if it can be used in the way of Its going to be good. I think that sentence would have to end in desu or da yo.

AnnoyedCops 04/29/20 7:22:11 PM #11:	"~te iku/ikimasu" means go on ~ing, ~ from now on. It's not "going to" like future tense because Japanese has no specific future tense.

You use "da yo" only after nouns in standard Japanese and "desu" after nouns or ii-adjectives I thought there was no present tense because technically there is no present with time.

AnnoyedCops 04/29/20 7:39:05 PM #14:	The dictionary form or just "masu" is not really future or present IMO.

The requirement for teaching there is pretty stupid because you dont have to have a degree in teaching or English, just any four-year degree and even if that was something I wanted to do I wouldnt want to wait four years to get it.
