Hello I am new to the forums and to text fugu as well i guess… I have the best resources available to me(outside of an actual teacher) including ds games, books, cds, rosetta stone and of course text fugu… To be honest I think text fugu is perfect for those who are teaching themselves. I always enjoy learning the HOWS and the WHYS before learning phrases….I mean what’s the point in learning something if you can’t understand it amirite? I have been studying for a few years now…But I always stop and then start up and then stop, etc. This time I’m doing my best to stay on track. I think rosetta made me lose focus, and I’m not going to touch that until I have more than just a basic knowledge of japanese. Anyways feel free to respond, I look forward to learning together! Be genki! <3
