Japanese Options

[Lenyo]

Hey, I've been seriously considering it for a WHILE.

I've got tons of free time on my hand, I finish all my chores early in the morning, and I decided I want to start an intensive study on the Japanese language. And further delving into such matters later, I wish to learn to read Kanji.


I know we have a plethora of Japanese speaking people on this forum, and I don't know of any classes I can take in real life to help me learn Japanese, so could anybody here help give me tips, teach me the tricks and stuff, and help me out?

Thanks.

the thing about patience is true~

like for japanese? it can get really really frustrating (4 years .....daaah) but everyones learning ability is different~ so sometimes it seems you make no progress at all~ but then! bamm! you make a big jump foreward :3

also another important thing about japanese. many people say japanese is really difficult~ this is not mainly because of the kanji or grammar......the most difficult thing is the cultural context.

talking in japanese depends on the circumstances. with whom, where, when, about what, your social position.....this is all really important...and thats what will knot your brain up ._.

:P but don't give up! it's a wonderfull language
