Hi! I'm learning Japanese, but I'm not too good at it.
こんにちは！ 日本語を勉強しているんですけど、かなり下手です＾＾；

逃げる vs 逃れる What's the nuance? There's a usage note on 大辞泉 (scroll down to the bottom). |

What is the ちょ in こなしてちょ? I wasn't sure how to tag this question. If anyone would like to re-tag it with something more appropriate, it would be appreciated :-) |

Encountered な with ten-ten @yadokari Besides 濁点（だくてん）, they are sometimes called 濁り（にごり） or colloquially てんてん. In English, you can use Japanese terms like "dakuten" or call them "voicing marks" or "voiced sound marks". |

Use of はじめて and どれだっけ? @Chocolate Or a type for 'ate', perhaps. |

Use of はじめて and どれだっけ? You wrote "れだっけ" and "doredake" and "どれだっけ", which are inconsistent with one another. I made them all consistent with the kana in the quote (どれだっけ), but please edit it if I picked the wrong one. |

What verb is in 覚えてみたい? Are you sure 覚{おぼ}える isn't in your dictionary? (Am I misunderstanding the question?) |

How to say “for” When you use ために with a noun, you usually put the particle の between them, like 愛のために. |

Typing Japanese text from images or clothing "Typing text from images"? Questions about input methods and OCR (optical character recognition) are on-topic on superuser, so you could re-ask there, but make sure you read their FAQ and tailor your question to fit their community. |

キリンとゾウ：どっちが大きい？ @Flaw I think if you or Nicolas Raoul edit the question to ask something specifically about 大きい, and make it clear the OP isn't just trying to figure out whether elephants or giraffes are bigger, you might be able to get the question reopened :-) |

Are 行きゃあ and 行きゃ both contractions of 行けば? I found a post by Bart Mathias about ちゃあ and ちゃ groups.google.com/group/sci.lang.japan/msg/a276c9c0c4e5a8e1 |

Why is 〜に受かる used to mean “to pass”? This seems interesting: dspace.lib.kanazawa-u.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2297/3599/1/… |

Can 助動詞(auxiliary verbs) be used with other 助動詞? See page 2 here for some discussion, starting with "The JCV [Japanese Compound Verb] is a highly productive form...". In particular, "it is generally recognized that many more JCVs are in use than are lexicalized." |

Can 助動詞(auxiliary verbs) be used with other 助動詞? I think the paper suggests that these "three-verb-combined verbs" are generally the combination of a lexicalized compound verb with another verb. This second verb may be a simple verb or another compound verb (in which case they overlap). In other words, it's usually (A + B) + C or A + (B + C), or in overlapping cases (A + [B) + C]. |

Which romanization system should I use in my word game? Personally, I don't think this question is too localized, because it's really asking "What system of romanization are native Japanese most comfortable with?" (Although it doesn't sound that way from the question title. Maybe it could be rephrased?) |

Question about もらう In the second example, how does 俺に become [①俺は][②お前に]? |

Why censor this one kanji? Maybe they were paranoid about getting sued? (I have no idea if this makes sense or not) |
