Simple question :). I'm interested in getting a Japanese conversation thread going if there's enough interest!

Don't know many phrases, know just little sayings, like "Hai", "Iie", "Nani", and so forth. I also remember the numbers from 1-10. Ichi, Ni, San, Shi, Go, Roku, Nana, Kyuu, and Ju. XD

Hahaha, thanks. XD

At least I don't say "Baka" to everybody or anybody, or commonly at all. That'll make me feel like a total n00b. I'll focus solely on Engrish thanks. And Thai. :P

But I had to stop to focus on regular studies.. :cry:

One day, it's a dream, i'll learn it and go to Japan.

I'm so damn sure about it..

I haved learned some japanese vocabularies as I started to play Japanese TV video game when I was just 5.
Some common words like "magic" "equipment" "item" etc(mostly from RPG LOL).
I can clearly identify them, but it is difficult for me to write.

Yeah I speak... of sorts. It's been a long time since high school.

Learnt on and off for awhile, but now I'm doing it at university, progressing nicely. :)
Starting 'advanced 1' next semester, probably along side introductory Chinese :shock:

I'm also like Lumino, on and off. I'm planning to take it in University, so maybe it can be something I teach my students (I plan to become a teacher, yes...more school. Huzzah! :roll: )

I guess I started this thread but never really mentioned my history!

I studied Japanese through high-school and university, and majored in it. I don't use it much since I graduated apart from watching japanese TV so it is gradually deteriorating in my head :(.

Nice. :D
I've forgotten a lot of what I learnt now, which sucks. I can still read hira/katakana easily and I still know enough to use Japanese P2P programs. As well as kind of understanding game centre cx.

I minored in it after taking two years. Would've (double-)majored, but I started it too late in my junior year.
I graduated two years ago, and have lost a bit since I graduated. I've tried to self-study to not forget it, but I still have a long way to go for it to be useful.

a friend of mine went to japan once. shes teaching (as well as our friends) a little of what she knew.

I also have a jap-eng dictionary! That and the 3-CD course but it didnt help.

一年勉強する!

少し読めるでも、話せない。 余りしません ^^;

I plan on going to Japan next year, so hopefully I can make the jump to pseudo-fluency by then.

ohha!
Born in Japan, came to Australia at very young age. I speak Japanese at home with my parents.
I used to go to saturday school everyweek (until high school), but never paid attention.

Watch a little bit of anime here and there, enjoy variety shows, and listen to jpop.
