But I feel that if someone really has there hearts set on Japanese. I use hiragana... though though text thats harder then when you sit down with someone and teach them...
One other advantage to romaji, is when you have a text based format that cant decode Japanese (Yahoo, G-mail, etc.) My friends and myself can't use any kana or kanji when emailing. other wise it ends up all gibberish. So we have use romaji...
well thats my thoughts any how..  |
I hadn't thought about those that don't have Japanese access on thier computer, so in that case, it really makes sense.
I am not worried as much about people not trying to learn the language as people looking for free translation ... because I don't know how it will be used in the future.
