今日は, everybody!
私はネイトです。
(I’m Nate.)
I’m using TextFugu for a few reasons:
I want to be able to speak the language when I do a semester in Japan like I’m planning to do, and I’ve always just loved Japanese culture. My parents spent a lot of time in Japan before I was born, so our family has a lot of Japan-oriented traditions, my sister took Japanese classes in high school (although she forgot most of it), and I’m a total anime geek, so I’m just completing the next step in my life-cycle, right? My first long-ish-term goal is to be able to read <I>Sword Art Online</I> manga in Japanese as soon as possible, and then to be able to watch the show without subtitles, but ultimately I want to be fluent enough to manage in Japan!
Anyway, I’m loving TextFugu so far, and I look forward to learning with you all!
