not "desu", but something shorter.

I'm starting to think it has something to do with describing yourself like "I am"

fireman dess
"I am fireman"

Not sure though...

*sigh*

Are you a troll?

"domo", as you say, has a few meanings depending on context. It could be "thanks" in a relatively informal way, it could be "very" as in "thanks a lot" in a formal way, it could be a few things depending on context

by the way...why are you asking /jp/ for something so simple? You need to stroll onto tae kim's guide to japanese grammar
