I have no idea what you are saying. As i said, i've only just started learning today.

I started by audiobook, this does not mean i expect to learn everything this way. it is purely a way to get started with speaking Japanese.

However, i would also like to learn to write Japanese and understand the characters. This will take me a lot longer so for now i can't understand most responses if they are in Japanese.




@Sashimister - Noted. I'll make sure to leave Kanji alone for now.

I certainly thinkg writing them down is also the best method. That way i'll remember them much better because i have to actually sit and write them out time and time again. So i'll get used to the symbols and what each one means.
I see little point in using the keyboard to translate it other than to communicate some words across to see if i'm doing things correctly.
If i use it too much it's just doing the work for me and i won't have as much of an understanding.

Initially my plan is to learn the basics in speaking the language for about a week. In this time i expect to be able to describe hobbies, past times etc, order foods, drinks, greetings etc etc. The usual stuff required if i was visiting as a tourist.
After that week or so, i'll start on understanding the characters used in Hiragana and see how long it takes me to memorise those and go from there.
