Re: MAXDESU#14: Video Baton (Survey!) ビデオーバトン！

Why I, Loretta, am studying japanese! Great question, 'maxdesu'! Good opportunity for a bit of introspection for the japan-crazed youth of america! (Yes this will be me rambling about my experience with Japan, Japanese, etc.) =P

How much Kanji do you know?

[kemushichan]

I actually don't know... Kanji is one of my weaker points actually. I can read many, but I forget how to write many because I'm out of practice... hrm...

[sarius24]

I want to take Japanese but people will think im crazy XD

[kemushichan]

;) i'd watch video number '6' then ;)

[azmosis]

my real purpose for learning japanese was to watch anime without subtitles. but now, I like the language in itself. like what you said, falling in love with the language! :D

[ViperaLLAP2U]

You are really going to be somebody!!! WOW!!! Japanese is such a beautiful language too! Keep it up and good luck! :)

[gxcad]

[cipher10000]

dedication! man, I'm impressed this is great I to have been researching the culture but not studying the language yet.but you are an inspiration.

salamat. i think nihongo is offered in ue or feu. for spanish there's the instituto de cervantes. malayo kc up. the only problem is i don't have the guts to enrol :(

napansin ko nga me hawig ang nihongo sa filipino in terms of patterns...

[azmosis]

may spanish na language course sa u.p. i suffered a whole academic year of forced education. ng spanish. lawlz. yeah, if you want to learn japanese, advice ko lang na maghalo ka ng Filipino grammatical connections. it works!

Ive got the same idea about Japanese culture, etc., as you. I dont know why though. Personally, Im really interrested in Japanese lifestyle, and I'd really want to visit Japan and to feel what its like to live in a totally different environment. I use to live in Ukraine for 16 years, and now Im in Canada, so it is too a different environment, but theres something about japanese culture ("peacefulness") that draws me to it.

hmmm, there are so many languages i wanna learn. arab, mandarin (due to my sino-arab ancestry), spanish (philippines used to b a spanish colony but teaching spanish in schools has been abolished 2decades ago), hangul (hit by the korean wave big time!), italian (i must've bn a venetian in my previous life), NIHONGO (i would looove to visit japan). i also feel that nihongo is pretty easy and very simple, much like filipino...
