I have been trying to learn Japanese for a very long time, but always lose motivation. I never lose motivation to make stupid LJ posts though, so I thought I could combine the two. I'm trying to head to Japan if not in June, then definitely at the end of 2007, so I have time to get *some* understanding.
The other thing I realised while studying Japanese is that the best way for *me* to learn is to teach someone else while I'm learning. It's my education-student mentality, I suppose. So I'm going to pretend that some of you are reading this.
I know a lot of you are trying to learn Japanese too, so maybe we can help each other out. I'm going to make these posts as frequent as possible, (read: every second day) and stick them under cuts and tag them. Also, I obviously suck at Japanese, so if you *do* know Japanese and I make a mistake, please tell me. Today's post will probably be the longest.
I also suck at languages in general, so think about this as a Japanese for Idiots or something. Or Japanese for People Who Watch Prince of Tennis, and other such animes.
