J'accepte les réponses rédigées en français, anglais et japonais.
I accept answers in English, Japanese and French.
日本語、フランス語や英語での答えを認めます。

  • I write in British English, so, if you correct my messages, please stick to it (e.g., colour/color, kerb/curb, flat/apartment, marmite/vegemite).
  • J'écris principalement en français de France (avec une orthographe non-simplifiée de préférence), mais il m'arrive d'y mélanger du français du Québec.
  • 主に標準語で書くんだけど、なかなか流暢に使える東北弁でも書くことがある。んだげんともほどんど通ずねぇがら、使わねごとにすっぺちゃ!

comment The plural 等 in おいら, おら
Tohoku's "ora" is singular, and written 俺 in kanji. I don't know why you think it's plural. Moreover, I don't see why you post Yoshi Ikuzo's picture either: he song "おら東京さ行ぐだ" is about a single person, not a group. FWIW, all my Tohoku-ben speaking friends and I say "おらたち" (or rather, おらたづ) when using plural.

comment Describing aptronyms (names that fit their owner)
I do not wish to make my name public, but it is an aptonym related of a feat of my body (in French). Other common examples you can find in French communities are tall people named "Legrand" (i.e, Mr. Tall), or "Petit" (ie, "Small").

comment Pluralization in Japanese: usage of -たち and -ら
No kanji, but use of ら: see for example www-kb.is.s.u-tokyo.ac.jp/~koba/papers/JVM-IFlow-full.ps.gz page 15, first paragraph.

comment Pluralization in Japanese: usage of -たち and -ら
@ZhenLin: For my last claim, I have several years of experience doing academic research in Japan. But suddenly, you make me doubt… I've often read "ら", and I'm pretty sure the kanji was used as well.

comment Is there any difference for compounds with/without okurigana?
@ZhenLin: I have not been taught vocab with two spellings, and there's no harm in consistently assuming one is correct. I'll remove "only", and your comment will smooth my sharp answer anyway.
