    Any other shows people could recommend to aid learning?

    I watch Samurai Champloo and Ninja Warrior – not because I think they’re brilliant to help learn Japanese; they’re just brilliant!

    Thanks all.

    I should have known young people would be responsible for this. Damn young people.

    Thanks.
    I suspected (and worried) as much!

    Well, online personals you say -> okcupid.com – a lot of people use it not for dating but for just meeting people & making friends.

    You can also go to Edit/Browse Items then there is a button “Toggle suspend”, which I think stops the card suspension.

    In here you can also “un-suspend” cards, by going to the filter and select “Suspended” to show all suspended cards, then you can un-suspend them (sorry I can’t remember the next bit, but you’ll see it)

    Ok, now I’m more suspicious about the “kaesu” anki card…I listened to the “temae” anki card and the “ae” part did not sound at all like “ai”, it was clearly different.

    Thanks – there may be a lesson on this in textfugu, but I’ve not got to it yet (sorry if there is!)

    Thanks for your help guys, I’ll keep an eye out (or ear) for this.

    By chance, I got the “kaesu” card in Anki today…grr…maybe it’s just that one card (I hope), as it did sound very “kaisu” – anyway I will persist.

    Thanks Joel.

    In sensei – the ‘ei’ kinda sounds like ‘A’ in English – you saying ‘ee’ would sound like this ‘A’ as well?

    That’s what I thought with ‘ai’ & ‘ae’ – hence I was real surprised with “Kaesu”.

    I’ve looked at JLPT a few times and can’t quite get an idea of how advanced it is, even the first exam.

    How advanced do you have to be to take the first exam?
    Roughly, how long should you have been studying for before you’d ready for the first exam?

    Thanks for this, these were very useful.

    Are there similar decks for the kanji by any chance?
