More on Japanese

Sun May 18, 2008, 12:17 AM
Just thought I'd post a link to an interesting page on why it's impossible to learn Japanese as a foreign language...

[link]

It's pretty old now and you might have seen it before, but if you haven't, it's a fun article to read.


I haven't done much on dA lately because I'm spending most of my free time learning Japanese. I'm also doing a fanfic beta and writing some software for spaced repetition learning to help me learn kanji.

Speaking of kanji, I have a few more ideas for artwork so I'll try to take a break from studying to do that.

If you are learning Japanese and you haven't heard of spaced repetition, then send me a note and I'll explain it to you.

XD OMG that is one of the best-weirdest-strangest-funniest articales I have ever read.

At first when I started reading it I was felling a sense of dread that reading it would somehow knock down my level of enthusiasum to read it... but then I got to the part about the Katakana, Hiragana, and Kanji, then I started laughing at it.

I was very amused by the classmates section part of that. which reminds me I need to see how far away the nearest colelge/tech school is that might have that as a major so that I can attend. ^_^
