Hey guys,
i really appreciate ur replies and viewpoints but what utsu san said was really incredible! that shows that anyone who is 'infatuated' with japanese and consider it as their goal can fulfil their dream of mastering it in such a short time! and that really requires effort, i know..... But it is still hard 4 me to believe the guy whom i told ya about of being able to reach the proficiency level in a couple of months~~
In fact, i've been learnin japanese 4 about half a yr and i could master 'writing kanji' in one week only! in other words, i have the potentia to write ANY kanji symbol with the correct stroke order 筆・書き順. But wut i really wish to do is to become able to read'em the way any other japanese person does~~ However, my main problem is time, i am a 16 yr old high school student and the school is becoming gradually more stressful! so it is very hard to adapt. Furthermore, i study 5 languages out of japanese and yesterday i decided to start avoiding to study any other languages and concentrating on japanese.
As 4 the way i study japanese, it is actually a self study via internet since we don't have here (in Nazareth,Israel) neither japanese teachers nor textbooks and that really makes me feel nervous! i am sure that if i had someone to teach me, i would master it even in less than a yr! u have no idea how much i love the japanese accent, grammar, kanji etc.... i am ready to dedicate the 24 hrs of my day 4 the most language i've ever loved, japanese.... So how do u think i can improve it now??? i am not planning to go to japan currently since my parents do not allow me to~~ but i may go to either England or the US this yr. do u guys have some good learning sources there?
PS
to Utsu): can ya plz do me a favor and PM me some contact information in relation to that woman (4 instance, her e-mail address) i really need to talk to her~~ maybe she can inspire me or sth.....
