Let's say that I am walking with someone and point down a road, I say, "I want to go in that direction". Or I ask someone, "what direction is the ... in?" This kind of direction. How do I say it? If it is common to use more than word, or other words not meaning direction, for this sort of...

I already know quite a bit, but there are still gaping holes in my knowledge. No one will tell me how to say them (on line or elsewhere), but they are an important part of becoming fluent. Does anyone know where I can get some information on the common words for a lot of these terms? Ie. how to...

I was thinking, since it's now owned by google, that maybe...? What do you think? And do you know more about this?

Tomorrow I have a mandatory CAS orientation in which I am supposed to choose what courses I will be taking for the rest of the year. AS I have no idea what is available, I would like to have a heads up, if possible, who know what's offered? I am a Bio-major, but I also want to take Japanese...
