I visited that site. It was very interesting!
I have never been to Chicago, so I have no knowledge about their local language.
I am going to learn some and use some with my Chicagoan workmate!

Can you give me some good sentenses to make him sureprised?

What made you interested in learning Japanese?

What I did to learn the language (for me, it was English), was
watching the same movie over and over! and read the book (the same title) over and over!
Until I almost memorized all the lines.

If you have any favourite Japanese movie, even anime, please try this!
you're welcome!

really! i just love evrything about it even when i was little, because my uncle visited there in Japan for like a couple of months! and then it was like in 7th grade when i decide i want to learn the language , since i knew a little about the people and the culture! And some of my family is Japanese and i heard them speak the language, and i just thought it sounded beautiful!

wow...then you know quite alot!

i do with this movie called Final Fantasy, but i can't find any books though, but do you have any recommendations?

Well, if you like it that much , you should go to Japan and live!
I guess you are a student(?), why don't you go there to study or something?

Well, I like Hayao Miyazaki's works. Most of them.
Like Totoro, Kiki and Spiritual Away..I like how they
speak.

If you like to learn everyday life language,
"Sazae-san" "Chibi Maruko chan" could be good.

How old are you?
I would recommend, any movie the main charactar is about your age.

I recently learn a lot from the American Drama "Friends".
The main charactars are my age.

Haha it has to sorta do with the sentence structures...
but the thing about the Chicago Accent is the way you
talk.
Like...
We tend to put a weird stress on, like, a and o.
I dunno how to explain it, you kinda have to just hear it...
Here's Chicago's Mayor, you can listen to they way he talks...
I dunno, try looking up people from Chicago.
