need help on my japanese
 

haha i speak fluently in engllish and filipino. i wanted a 3rd language so i chose japanese. :) i took classes already but they didnt go that far, it was like a 4month course. i know my katakana and hiragana now and i can read it. i want to speak japanese. so far i got basics down. so can anyone help me. onegaishimas...:o

Read this: Tae Kim's Japanese guide to Japanese grammar
And ask more specific questions. None of us are going to teach you a full course over the internet, and none of us are even qualified to do so (probably).

So ask specific questions. And read that link. It's an excellent guide to Japanese. There are a couple things there that I didn't know even after two years of study.

haha i guess you're right. thank you

You are lucky you took a japanese course. I never got that opportunity.

right now i am taking a japanese course and it's helped me pretty well.
i speak fluent english and spanish and now i can pretty well speak japanese.
you could get "japanese phrasebook" which teaches grammar, sentence structure, and basics very good.
also haha (im a videogame dork), you can get "my japanese coach" for the DS. It helps very much in learning japanese!

the ds has a japanese coach?! lol i never knew that

It does, but to be honest, it's not that great, and not that fun either :D

If you want to learn Japanese, you're best off just reading as much as you can; no software will be of particular help.

Just to clarify, I'm 25. I went to a public university in my home state that is nowhere near Japan. I grew up in a small Texas town with no Japanese speakers.

If you're still in high school and don't have the opportunity to learn there, I feel your pain: I was once in your shoes.

But if you're older, you have the ability to go where you want. You only need to decide how important speaking Japanese is to you. For me, I decided that learning a third language was more important than majoring in electrical engineering.

In a roundabout way, learning Japanese led me to getting a doctorate in jurisprudence rather than becoming an engineer.
