Learn Japanese!

 

Here you can learn many words and phrases in Japanese. Amaze your friends and fellow peers with this awesome, yet complex language! ..I sound like someone in a Learn Japanese book hehe Gomen nasai! Anyways, as I said before, you can find many different words and phrases, and even the numbers used in Japanese from 1 to 10. Hopefully when you leave my site, you'll be able to say some new words and such in Japanese! :) NO, by the way, I do not speak fluent Japanese, nor do I speak very much at all, I'm simply learning it on my own since I don't take Japanese classes as I would like to do. If you want to learn more on this site, you can talk about it in the Forums and perhaps I and other people there can help you!

PRONUNCIATION GUIDE:

Proper pronunciation of words and vowels is very important! Without proper pronunciation, it may be harder for other people to understand what you're saying.
