what is gambarou ? means dumb ass ?

ganbarou = ganbarimashou = let's do the best / let's try hard / let's work hard

oooo same as gambatte ?

In a sense yes. ganbatte is just the te form to make ganbatte kudasai which means please keep it up, etc.

In shows, you normally hear ganbatte only cause in casual speech the kudasai is dropped cause both the listener and speaker know what you're getting at.

Btw, no more translation for the time being as my computer broke so I can't type Jap for the time being =(.

you buy the JLPT form at ICLS or JLSM?

i buy from ICLS but i submit myself to JLSM to get the exam voucher no immediately...

really got me confused, I done some google search and found out JLSM have two addresses:

The Japanese Language Society of Malaysia
42-2B, 2nd Floor, Jalan Sultan Ismail,
50250 Kuala Lumpur.

THE JAPANESE LANGUAGE SOCIETY OF MALAYSIA (JLSM)
2nd Floor, Selangor Hokkien Association Building, 41, Jalan Hang Lekiu, 50100 Kuala Lumpur.

Which one is the real one?

the jalan sultan ismail one is the real one, u know std chartered building ? that row having pizza hut, is next to pizza hut.
by the way, u first time taking? Level 4?
next year onwards JLPT will be revised and convert into 5 level....

yeah first time taking level 4.Ohh really?

is jlsm.org JLSM website, it seem down. I am taking JLPT test first time as a private candidate.

thanks very much , I will buy the form at JLSM. you know the opening hours? any thing I should take care of?

domo arigatou.

to inform all of you, i already registered and submit the form to my sensei already, this year taking Level 2, wish me luck, and taking IT course this month too, waa have to climb high, so i always hear the climb from Hannah Montana Soundtrack

Planning to taken JLPT 3 this year, haven't get the form yet, will get it from ICLS Subang probably this Sat or next.

deadline　まだ　ですね。

皆一緒に頑張ろうね！！

Note: Ganbarou utilizes 命令形 (command form) but it is common usage in this type of sentence.　

i see, you taking level 2 this year...did you attend any level 2 prepratory class ? I saw ICLS website seems they do have the short course..
