a question... does anyone know how to say 'happy birthday' in japanese?

@ chibcheb : 2 weeks to wait, calm down or you will have a heart attack

@ Eireen : tanjoubi omedetou :

O-tanjoubi omedetou gozaimasu. (formal)
お誕生日おめでとうございます。

Tanjoubi omedetou. (casual)
誕生日おめでとう。

^ Don't forget we're limited to 130 letters, with "O-tanjoubi omedetou gozaimasu" and "[your username] from SCANDAL HEAVEN, you have about 100 letters left :/

Arigatou!

It's 140 letters i think?

Also not sure how it counts if you write the "happy birthday" part in japanese?

Is お誕生日おめでとうございます 14 letters?

Now that I have a Twitter account too, I´m ready.
Please add me to the List.

twitter have 140 letters . . .
"O-tanjoubi omedetou gozaimasu"
should use [your username] ?
and maybe #SCANDALHEAVEN <---- we can use it for the hashtage

I'm totally in on this as well. I'll also need some help tweeting SCANDALove's birthday video to her as well. So follow me on twitter if you want to help me out =) @scandalove_com. Also if you want to contribute a message longer than 140 characters you can email a submission for the birthday video up until May 16th. Might extend it by a couple days cuz I don't have many submissions for Mami. I've got a ton for Tomomi though. Lol. Help me show Mami some love from SCANDALove and check out this link for the submission guidelines =) -> Mami and Tomomi Birthday Video Guidelines

@Yassu
I'm sorry if this reply is out of the topic .please.

@HaruRinaBankai
I'm thinking about send or not the video cause I don't speak in english very well... maybe I'll to try... and I don't know if this video is in english or japanese... (I think her will watch to it and maybe doesn't understand) Do you know if is this in english or japanese?

@tomomilover: If you want, we can try to sub in Japanese but I think it's better if you say it in English or Japanese

This is why I'd love to have Japanese letters installed on my phone. Two/three letters per word. Or maybe since it's 7 a.m. in my place I should just do it on my computer...

If we're gonna use [username] and #SCANDALHEAVEN, we might as well use "[your username] from #SCANDALHEAVEN" .tsk.

Then again, with Romaji letters "O-tanjoubi omedetou gozaimasu" and "from #SCANDALHEAVEN" both leave us with 91 more letters to add, and depending on how you're gonna write your username, you might end up with 80-90 more characters to write. So I'm thinking we do it without mentioning our username, just to be fair to those who have such a long one. .ehem.

Also, お誕生日おめでとうございます is 14 letters in Twitter. So it's better if we use Japanese for the templates, and English/whatever we want for the rest of the tweets.

What do you say?

I'm in!

Yassu already posted the hashtag in the first message, he edits it with the members too :

We'll send our tweets with this hashtag: #HappyBirthdayMamiFromScandalHeaven

Yassu's hashtag looks better but Medio's idea is cool too. Obviously with Yassu's hashtag it's useless to add our SH username (well unless you have a different nickname i guess), the hashtag says it all anyway. Also the point was to hashtag about Mami not just SH so Yassu's sounds better but i'm a total twitter noobie so i don't know

Well i use whatever you will agree in the end !!

I always planned to write the happy birthday in japanese, it's even better if it counts only for 14 letters!

Something like that :
お誕生日おめでとうございますMAMI-さん！ nice message here in english.......................................... #HappyBirthdayMamiFromScandalHeaven

We are all so excited by this, i don't know how we will survive until her birthday

aa.. that's kinda good.. i like it..
but if everyone is agree...

so we don't need to use our nicks, just a hashtag like that ^?

May i join ?

I was thinking that i will give cake .....
or a collection of photo album of her??

count me in, please. :3 Thank you! xD

I want to do this!!
Please! Enlist me!! XDD
It's a very good iniciative ^^

add my name in list...looking forward for confirm "template" to use.....and I'll ready...my tweet app can save draft so I can save the message and will post on the time that we have set to tweet together @... GMT+9 (Tokyo) at 09:00:00 on 21 May 2013

#HappyBirthdayMamiFromScandalHeaven

Count me in man!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Count me in too, even if I have to wake up early. (I sure hope I do, lol) Whatever it takes just to greet Mami on her special day! Yay.

Great idea.
But in the end we'll still end up with 83 characters left for the rest of the message. So pretty much not a lot of difference character-limit-wise.

I'll go with whatever Yassu decides in the end. .clap.
We still have 13 days anyway. That's like 11-12 more days to decide

count me in!
if it's 9AM Tokyo time, i don't mind waking up early to greet Mami!
and then let's greet her again before the day ends

Well 83 characters is still a lot, unless you plan to write her a long love letter

But it's kinda the point of twitter to keep it short ^^ Or you could split your message in 2 and send her 2 tweets in a row very fast, just prepare the text and copy/paste it quickly.
