Ni hao again,

Told ya that I would write back. ;) Anyway, I'm back from Oregon and it's a fine place. Also, I haven't seen America while I was there but I left a note just in case before I came back. Oh wait.. *finds note in desk and unfolds it* turns out that America wrote out this: YO DUDE, YOU STILL OWE ME SOME CHINESE FOOD, MAN! You'd better give some to him quick.. And about my Hello Kitty doll, yes, go ahead and hug it all you want. ^^

See ya,

P.S. Yeah I know... I shouldn't get involved but I'm just saying that if you need help, call me. Or at least send me a reply for it.

P.P.S. No, your way of saying "aru" isn't annoying me. But for one thing, I'd NEVER heard a Chinese person say aru like you do (I'm not sure why.. help me out here?) AND the reason why I'm mentioning this is because some guy made this bet (in story form) that you can't say "aru" after your sentences and that you might die from it... I think.

Ni Hao, ShunKazamis-Girl!

Ah, I'm sure Oregon is nice there.

*reads note* Aiyahhh... That America, always asking me to cook him food. Other than that, he's always stuffing his mouth with hamburgers aru. I'll send him a crate of my food to him.

*Hugs Hello Kitty* uu~ It's sooo CUTE aru! I love it~! Xie Xie!

P.S: Liao Jie! (I understand!)

P.P.S: Ah, I see. Hmm... *shrugs* I guess it's only me aru. I don't have to say "aru" all the time. But it became a habit to say. Aiyahh...

A/N: A lot of the Hetalia fans wonder about the same quesion. The answer is shown if you research it on Google, and it appears in the very first volume of Hetalia at the end. Apparently, "aru" is like the Japanese way of depicting a Chinese person.

That's why the real Chinese don't say "aru"when speaking.

It's sort of like a small stereotype.

However, "Aru" can also be used when speaking Japanese.

For example: Kore wa hon de aru.

Which means (literally translated) "This is a book". Hon meaning book and Kore meaning this. De Aru is a short way of saying arimasu which means that something is present.

In other words, "Aru" in general, is the informal way of saying something.

I hope this helps your understanding!
