I was about to vote yes. But the truth is... I'm steadily loosing my motivation.
It's no piece of cake.

I think I will truly learn the language eventually. But for the moment, I'll be honest and vote No.

Yeah, I'm still trying to learn it. I'm still weak, though, since I don't have much of an opportunity to practice it, hence my wanting to go to Japan, where I'll be surrounded by it, and can therefore practice it to help raise my ability with it.

I tried taking the lvl 3 JLPT last year, but didn't do too well and I can't afford to take it this year. I really wanted to try and pass lvl 3 before they added level 5...

Yeah, I am learning Japanese. I've been learning Japanese for few months.
I have started on listening and speaking skills at home. I have tried to speak Japanese and it went well. I'm currently concentrating on reading and writing Japanese too.

I want to learn it. I had a tutor teaching me for a bit. But he had to move.
My work schedule is weird. So it's almost impossible to enroll in a class.

Yes? As in, I just started on Friday.

I'm having a little trouble with deciding how to go about learning it, though, because I don't have internet access at home right now and I'm too broke at the moment to order any textbooks . . . .

From what I've heard on here and what I read on Friday, it seems like the best place to start is by learning the kana. Does that sound right?

(Massively uncertain of my capability to learn on my own)

Learning it during the Winter minimester.

Trying to get a small head's start though.


The color of the sala flower reveals the truth that is... To flourish is to fall. The proud do not endure.

Heaven or Hell, Let's Rock!

Like a passing dream on a night in Spring. The mighty fall at last, to be no more than dust before the wind.
