Japanese |Learning the language|
« on: January 14, 2008, 11:26:38 AM »
This is a blog that I found randomly w/o even looking a few months back. It seems like a good resource for anyone who wants to learn japanese.

The site's a little bit weird to navigate through but just click the various links and you'll find more info.

People are always talkin' about the Japanese language and stuff so I figured I'd post this up ..

Last week I went out and bought three books, and found my Rosseta Stone I thought I lost. lol

I'd like to try to relearn japanese again. I knew a good part of it back when I lived there, but when I moved back my dad didn't like it, so I haven't spoken it in about 12 years. lol

I haven't used it in a while. But from I can remember (years back), it had alot of analogy and pictures.
As for the conversation part of it, I haven't gotten that far before I lost it, so I'll let you know once I work my way back up to it.

Sweet. I decided to make it a goal of '08 to learn Japanese. Who else here speaks it? I know some of you are translators .. you thought no one read those credit pages?
