Hi there,
Figured that I would make a real effort to get back into my Japanese, doing some initial learning of it back in 2008. I recently read an article that learning a language gets harder as you get older. Although some people disagree (even TextFugu as I read on one of its pages), I don’t want to take any chances.
I’ve wanted to be bilingual for most of my life and as they say; there’s no better time than the present.
Out of all the world’s languages, Japanese would probably the one I would use the most often and would like to travel there at least once.
Like a lot of people here, I suspect, reading manga, playing games, and watching movies/anime, would be great without having to rely on translations, although if get really good at it, may take a stab at translation myself.
Nice to meet you all.
Oh, a Kiwi. =P
Welcome! =)
It’s certainly worth visiting. I did so myself six years ago, before I started learning Japanese – managed to get by with a second-hand phrasebook, some half-remembered words, and charades. These days I’m actually working on a translation, of a drama series named Teppan.
