HOMEWORK - Feelings

1.ARE FEELINGS, EMOTIONS AND FACIAL EXPRSSIONS UNIVERSAL ACROSS BORDERS, HAPPY, SAD, ETC..?
These have no borders wheather or not our nationality, native language, rerigion..etc are different, everyone have feelings and emotions. But like when people feel sadness or happiness is not same each people. Thus it is not easy that we tell our own real feelings others and that we understand others' own feelings.

2.TRY TO NAME AS MANY FEELINGS AS POSSIBLE IN JAPANESE. THEN, WRITE THE ENGLISH TRANSLATION.
さみしい ― lonely      うれしい ― happy
つかれた ― tired      つらい ― bitter
落ち着く ― calm      心地良い ― comfortable
眠たい ― sleepy      腹ペコ ― hungly
不安 ― timid        くやしい ― frustrated

3.ARE THERE ANY FEELINGS IN JAPANESE THAT CANNOT BE TRANSLATED INTO ENGLISH?
たいぎい (Hiroshima Dialect)
I think that it cannot be taranslated into English and standard Japanese as well.
