Removed #5 Posted May 24, 2013 Report Share Posted May 24, 2013 and now I see how I could have asked these in the same question ... oh well ... Again not too concerned about how well you speak it - everything from basic familiarity to fluent count in my book. Again, just curiosity. BTW, don't you Brits insult me by saying you all speak English BTW II: If your language isn't on the list, drop a note here and I'll add it (if I can) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wish I'd taken more time to learn more Japanese while I was there. With the exception of reading and writing it is a very neat, concise and easy language! Does the difference / similarity between Chinese and Japanese characters bother you much? I'd tell a story about my R&R in Hong Kong - it's amusing, but I'd get myself in trouble. oyasumi nasai, Riv!

Is it really ok? oh and no, the similarity between kanji and han zi actually helps me a lot. Mandarin is a school subject, and I always get good grades because I know (some) Japanese kanjis. In the other hand, learning Mandarin at school helps me memorize more kanjis I like Japanese more than Chinese though it just sounds better in the ears Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
