A thread for practicing Japanese sentences. Hopefully it will come in useful for others as well. I'm going to edit this first post and compile a list of correct sentences for practice, keeping everything in one useful spot! Please let me know if you spot anything wrong with these sentences.

Regards,
Kaede
