RE: Top 8 Possible Titles for a Great Novel about Life in Japan (Notes from Under the Tatami Mats–46 … My Adventures in Japan)
It seems as if you are trying to motivate me to write those novels. I'll consider it, but don't expect too much, and please don't expect any novels any time soon. But thanks for the encouragement.
By the way, in Japanese, the word "ai" means "love." However, in English, we use the expression "ai, ai, ai" when we hear something that is just a little bit unpleasant, just a little bit negative.
You alone know the reason behind the titles. Even if someone else writes it, it may not be as eventful and interesting as it would be if you write it. Beside, you're already a master in English vocabulary. So you have the tools.
Yes, that's probably true that I might be the one who should write them.

Anyway, re the expression "Ai, ai, ai, ..." , I just heard it while watching this vid –
At the 8:35~~8:39 part, the announcer expresses his shock at how stupid Trump seems to be. After reading one of Trump's statement, then puts his head in his hand and says ... "Ai, ai, ai, ..."
In this world we need more novel writers so do it!
