"Gomen-ne wakarimasen..." replied the orderly, confusion evident in
his eyes, "gomen-ne, Amerikago-wa wakarimasen..."

Tannim nodded, before turning and asking, "Sumimasen, roomu-wa doko

The orderly looked in the notebook clutched in his hands.  "Hai.
Tannim-san roomu-wa shichi-juu-san desu.  Kagato-san roomu-wa shichi-
juu-yon desu."

"Arigatou gozaimasu."
