Everybody wants to learn Japanese in the quickest time possible.
Somebody will want to find their own ways to learn them through their own developed methods.

But really, shortcut methods are doomed for failure. You get hot and interested very fast, plough in all kinds of brilliant learning methods that you think you developed them yourself.

Then, you get stucked. But because you are so determined to get it right, you go round circles, run through all your notes and search across the web, or like what you did, spent an hour searching for ONE word.

Soon, you get frustrated, and weary, and your determination begins to wear off. Then your interest will begin to wane and the more you look at it, the more frustrated you will get. Two to three months down the road, you've given up.

I've seen them all. You should take it easy and don't rush yourself.
