Okay, my friend and mentor (I would use sempai or senpai, but there's a gender distinction, but i don't know which is which) preacher33800x warned me off of lip synching for a while, and I tried it the other night... it's a hell of a lot easier than I thought.

There is? Wow. The only one I ever heard was Sempai, which I'm guessing is for the males. Sempai=Dwchang

I... don't think there is a distinction, although someone could correct me if I'm wrong.

As far as I know, the syllable-final 'n' symbol in japanese can be read as 'm', particularly in the middle of words, without causing any semantic change.

Otohiko has it correctly. 'n' and 'm' are the same character.

But you don't <i>pronounce</i> it as an M unless it precedes a *takes out Japanese textbook* m, n, b, or p.

Wait, you don't pronounce it as an m unless it's before an 'm'? Isn't that a little odd?

Ah, yes. Thank you Scintilla. I haven't gotten to those nuisances of the language yet, but I do remember something on that.

Yea, as for the two 'm's - that would be the 'n' kind of 'm' (the one in sempai) and the 'm' that's a part of syllables (ma,mi,mu,me,mo).

Different symbols, that's all.

Oh, right. Thanks for the clarification, Otohiko.
