Forums - General Discussion - Japanese Language Thread

Welcome to the Japanese Language Thread. You can just chill out, speak Japanese, speak English, speak giberish for all I care. Have fun, or if you want to learn Japanese (well, you can learn AND have fun) just let it out here.

Tips:

  • Start off slow, don't have such high expectations, and don't be discouraged if you don't meet them
  • Brute epetition helps in remembering things.
  • Application helps in remembering and actually writing and speaking Japanese. (Write practice sentences, make random phrases)

Google translate sucks trust me, anyway I started basic hiragana which isn't bad but In haven't had the motivation to follow through. Akvod HELP ME!

My speaking level is a way higher level though (through the countless jap drama viewing)

I think you said kanji was the hardest? I think thats the only thing I can catch on.



"Life is but a gentle death. Fate is but a sickness that results in extinction and in the midst of all the uncertainty, lies resolve."

Eh, thats long. I'm sorry but I can't be bothered reading such a wall-of-text, especialy the kanjis, which I have to search in dictionary.
But, if you just want to talk, I'm up for it anytime.
I have reformated my PC a while ago so I don't have any other languages than English (and Slovenian) set. (so I can't write, but reading is no problem)

Well, its already 1 in the morning so I'm going to sleep. Good night.

Something like that.
