Writing and speaking Japanese is very hard to learn especially if you're learning it as a second language. In my case if I get "lucky" (or not, even if I get the subject during enlistment) I'll be able to have Elementary Japanese as a foreign-language subject next semester. I've already done 6 units of French and 3 units of Italian.

lol, just remembered the other day when i was looking for a new manga to read i came across one called "yoru made matenai". i ended up spitting out what i was eating in laughter at the title.

I probably understand about 50% of the Japanese I hear in anime. I can usually tell what they are saying well enough to get the gist of conversations.

When my brother watches anime in the other room, I sometimes catch myself laughing at the jokes. It usually takes a few seconds for me to realize they were speaking in Japanese. lol.

i'm the same. i pick a lot more up hearing it, than i do reading it.

morpha would disagree, but his pronunciation makes him harder to understand.

Good for you then, I can hardly understand Japanese. lol

Word for word I can understand some, but when it's a whole sentence, oh well. xD

you get 3 out of 5 words and the context and you can figure the rest out.

I try, but I just really can't grasp it. :ohwell:

And it's not like I'm not watching anime/hearing Japanese for the first time. :laugh:

Like right now, I'm listening to OP2 of Gundam 00 2nd season.

Can't believe the members of Stereopony are months/a year older than me.

morpha · May 28, 2009

because of time restraints in the japanese lifestyle most/all japanese have only ONE hobby. If you play guitar you dont do anything else... you dont read, fish, play computer games NOTHING. As such, they all tend to be really good at that one hobby at a very young age.

this is why all the good shit comes out of japan and the other asian countries these days...

if you dont like hentai style (proper genre name "echi") make sure you dont watch kissxsis.

on another note, how does a picture of hanma yujiro kicking a 30ft+ elephant going from oldschool japanese style on one corner to detailed davici style anatomycal study on the other corner in A2 sound?

i didnt said i dont like hentai i just didnt liked this one because its not enought action and humor in it.But its only my opinion,so dont hate me

Cold Storm · May 29, 2009

The way i learn most of the Japanese that I am getting to know, is the same way I learned Spanish... Listening to the Music and reading the translation of it... That makes me understand it more.. I did bad in the first year of Spanish, but 2 & 3 was A's! :rockout:

Hummm I need to watch some anime... lol

morpha · May 29, 2009

saying that you can all learn japanese by just listening to it amuses me. The spoken and written word (in japanese) have about as much in common as modern day spoken english and Shakespeares style of writing.

Cold Storm · May 29, 2009

I'm glad I can amuse you by the way I learn things...

kid41212003 · May 29, 2009

What do you think about 7 Ghosts? I think it's an Yaoi/Shōnen-ai Anime/Manga, lol.
Yet to see a single main female character.

Cold Storm · May 29, 2009

I've downloaded 7 ghosts... but I haven't watched it yet... I have seen tons of wall papers and non yet have shown a girl....

Nobody actually said they are "learning" Japanese in a serious manner. We just understand some of what's spoken. huge difference. And nobody made any claims to learning written Japanese.

WTF just found out that Souske Sagara of the full metal panic live action gonna be played by Zac Effron WTF is wrong with the world :banghead:

It certainly has a bit of that vibe. I know a scanlator who swears it isn't though. As for what I think about it, I'm pretty meh. It also has some of the lamest particle effects I've seen in an anime

entropy13 · May 30, 2009

Random it is not. "Old" news as well.

And Zac Efron's really confirmed for FMP??? NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
