    はじめまして、

    わたしはザカリといいます。

    And with that, I’ve exhausted my limited knowledge of にほんご。 =) For now.

    Just starting season 2. Glad to ‘meet’ you all.

    I live in the USA in the lovely, green, and rainy, western half of the State of Washington. Just so you all know, it’s a lie that we get rain nine months out of the year; it’s only really about eight. Well, maybe eight and a half. We had some people come up visiting from California one year around August and they were marveling at how ‘green’ everything was. We were marveling at how they could think the landscape was green. It was August, don’t you people know that things are brown and crunchy once you’ve had three months of good weather? =D

    Anyway, looking forward to learning some grammar. Strangely, or not so much so, I’ve found my grammar in foreign languages is typically better than in my native tongue (I took a year of Spanish and dabbled in Hebrew).

    ‘See’ you all around,
    Zachary

    Zachary – welcome to the forums! I visited Seattle and Portland last week and loved all the green. Compared to the Arizona desert, the NW seems like heaven. :)

    Good luck with your Japanese studies!

    Ha, ha, I’ve never been out your way, but it sounds better than my homeland Michigan where we have 8 months of snow. ;)

    Actually it’s closer to 6.

    Now you know why I moved to the south. ;)

    Welcome and good luck!

    My husband moved from Michigan to Arizona and wants to go back! lol I think it all depends on what type of weather you prefer. ;)

    Ah, so you actually can go to Seattle and look at the ocean from a cliff…
    (I just started 2/3 stroke radicals…Seattle Seattle Seattle… ;) )
    Good luck with your studies :)

    Heh, yup. However, I’m about three hours south of Seattle. It actually takes less time to get to the ocean than it does to get up there (we live only about an hour from the ocean). Frankly, I’m tired of visiting the ocean, cliff or no cliff. I’d rather go to the mountains. We go to the ocean four or five times every year.

    Hey Zachary, welcome to TextFugu! It’s nice to see another Northwesterner – all of us at TextFugu are based out of PDX.

    Good luck learning Japanese!

    I’m more a mountain man too :)
    We lack both over here though, no oceans, no mountains. No problem though, that’s what travelling is for! :)

    Howdy howdy all. I’m back after about a three month break. Now I’ve forgotten everything and have the fun task of starting over. =)
