Japanese IM chat
 

Hello,

I kinda mentioned something like this a while ago and now I'm going to try to actually make something out of it.

Would anybody, a couple people actually, be willing to dedicate maybe an hour or two a week to an online chat where we talk about anything in Japanese. I figure this would be mutually helpful to all of us. It will help as it is good practice for speaking more on the spot. I have a working knowledge of kana and about 75 kanji with a limited vocabulary, it would be great if you're near my level, but I am willing to talk to anyone.

Also if a native or very educated speaker wouldn't mind passively monitoring or even better, being a part of the chat, that would be great if that person wouldn't mind helping us with grammar. I am not saying they have to keep a sharp eye on the chat, just if they could check in every couple minutes and do a quick check for grammar or fluidity in our grammar mechanics.

So if we could get a couple AIM accounts posted here we could have a large address book of people we can talk to. Then we could also arrange for one or two times a week we could all get online and have a big chat.

on AIM I'm jakeofcanadia

anyone??? This would be a good chance for speaking, on the spot, in the form of writing.

Sounds cool.

japandougbrowne is my aim screenname

I don't have AIM but I have MSN, so if anyone wanted to do that there, I'd gladly join in, as long as you're willing to put up with an exceptionally slow reader.

Thanks for helping me tonight!

What I'm going to do is form a word-bank and define the words and use them to make sentences until I really can recognize them.

The book is meant to come with an audio-track also which is why I was having a bit of trouble moving along with it.

I would also be willing to try and do this, but be warned my vocabulary is very limited lol, one of the reasons i make so many mistakes is because more often than not i just don't know the correct words to use.

I don't have AIM but my windows live address is [email protected]
I can type in Japanese in the evenings (5:30pm onwards GMT) and on the weekends when i'm not at work.
