Well I like various types of food. I'm not sure what my favorite is...as of right now it's cashew chicken and pocky ha ha. I've kinda been into the asian cuisine recently lot of food tastes better than it looks and smells. natto? I've never had that, well just because it smells bad doesn't mean it tates bad. Ha ha I'm a fane of sweets myself and a chocolate lover as well. I know how japense valentines day is, I've read up on it, due to curiosity on weather Japanese celebrate certain holidays like the US. Ha ha, I've only recieved Valentine's day gifts from my mum...lol she's done that since I was little. Yea men and women do exchange gift to each other on Valentine's day but mostly it's the males giving the females presents. We also have a sweetest day, though it's not really widely observed in the US as much as Valentines day. It actually started here in Ohio. Anyways sweetest day today is like your Valentine's day, the women give gifts to their special someone. If you want to you can but if you do, expect something in return (even if it ends up a bit late.) :) I'm off to study for a while. can't wait to hear from you again ^_^ これ（上記）が以下の自分の送信メールに対する返答です。英語が得意な方、どうかこれ（上記）を翻訳してください！！ Thank you, too. BTW,what kind of food do you like? I like natto. As you know, natto is Japanese food. It’s a sticky food made of fermented soybeans. Although it’s rich in protein, some people dislike it because of its distinctive smell. What about you? But I love sweets (especially chocolate) rather than it. I’m honest. Though the women have to give chocolate (handmade is better) to the men (that special someone) on Valentine's Day in Japan, LOL I’ve not received chocolate for Valentine's Day since I was a little child. I hope this Valentine's Day I get some chocolate...( I said to myself ) :) In Western countries, both men and women exchange presents on Valentine's Day you know. Though the gift won’t reach you until the day, if it’s okay with you, I do want to send you a gift...(略）

<訳例> そうね、私は、いろんなタイプの食べ物が好きよ。自分の好物が何かはっきりしないな～、現時点では、カシューチキンとポッキーね（笑）。最近、アジア料理にちょっとはまっちゃってて、多くの食べ物が、見た目や香りよりも味がいいのよ。納豆?私は食べたことがないの。そうね、においが悪いからって、味が悪いってことにはならないわね。（笑）私は甘い物好きだし、チョコレートだって大好きよ。日本のバレンタインデーってどんなのか知ってるわ。私、それについては読んだことがあるの、日本人が、アメリカの様に祝日を祝うかどうかについて好奇心があったのでね。（笑）私は、バレンタインデーの贈り物は、ママから受け取るだけよ…（爆笑）ママは、私がちっちゃかった頃からしてるの。そうなの、バレンタインデーには、男性、女性、お互いにギフトを交換するわね、でも、たいていは、女性にプレゼントするのは男性よ。こっちにはスイーテストデーて言うのもあるの、アメリカでは、バレンタインデーほど、ほんとはあちこちで見られるって訳じゃないけどね。その日は、実はここオハイオで始まったの。とにかく、現在のスイーテストデーは、あなた達のバレンタインデーに良く似てるわ、女性が特別な誰かに贈り物をするの。あなたがしたければ、してくれても構わないけど、すればやっぱり、お返しを期待するでしょう（たとえ、ちょっぴり遅れてもね）（微笑）ちょっと、勉強に行かなくっちゃ。また、あなたから連絡があるのが待ち遠しいわ。（微笑） *** order さん、こんにちは。
