Ignore what my sister said shes only a kid and shes shy and silly. I guess she was trying to defend our website which it doesn't need any defending, it is crap.

But now that I am here. Is there anyone who is actually willing to point our some of the errors and proof read it. Anyone who proof read in the past failed obviously.
Only on the condition that you switch from romaji to kana. Anyone who needs to know how to say "brown brush warbler" in Japanese should be able to read kana already.

I know it sounds like I'm being a bit of a bully, but I honestly think it would be a waste of my time to make romaji corrections. Maybe someone here thinks differently, and you'll have better luck.

Regardless, you and your people do seem to be nice and reasonable, so I do wish you the best of luck in getting things good to go.

As a sign of good faith, I'll go through the first vocab list and put them up in Japanese and include kana if there's kanji in the Japanese.

I'm whipping up a Python script to do the initial vocab stuff for me. I'll post the mammals wordlist here soon.

Full disclosure: there are a few animals I didn't know in Japanese (seven years, and I've never had to say "wolverine"), so I had to look them up. The rest were auto-generated from the Python script I whipped up, and I scanned over the list to make sure they're correct. It worked pretty well, only pulling about five incorrect words. I corrected those in a jiffy.
