I wish I could do that for other languages. I'm fairly good at French, but most of the time iit's harder to find information in French, and if there is it won't usually be as good as English so I'm just stuck using my native language.

I wish it was that easy with Japanese. English is so fucking easy to understand that you only need a handful of words and basic grammar to start learning and understanding your first sentences. With Japanese you need training and a couple of thousand words to understand at least a few words per sentence.

Let's hope in 10 years my understanding of Japanese is at least half as good as that of English.

I'm learning Japanese too! (Afterall I have to live up to my username!). It has been difficult, I must say, but I feel so great when I make progress. There's also a whole bunch of Japanese media that can keep my interest unlike French, which I'm mainly learning as I live in Canada and it's helpful for employment.
