Question

What does; "Ganbatte kudasai shiken desu," mean?, my good people!!?

Answer 1

Do your best or Good luck in Japanese.

Answer 2

Well, "Ganbatte kudasai" and "shinken desu" doesn't seem to really go together, but anyway,

Ganbatte kudasai = Hope you do well! Please keep up the good work!

Shinken desu = I'm serious (in a earnest way).

* edit - @Rotbuche haha ok you're right. I thought there was an "n" there hehe. Yeah "Shiken desu" is "It's an examination" =P

Although it still sounds awkward.... Might sound better if it's the other way round, i.e. "Shiken desu. Ganbatte Kudasai!"

Answer 3

Ganbatte kudasai = 頑張って下さい。Good luck.

Shiken desu = 試験です。It's the examination.

Somebody has wished you good luck for an examination.

@Imperio Alma

Shinken = 真剣 means serious, but in the question there was written shiken not shiNken.
