Memorizing literature in Japanese

[Cihan]

Do you think memorizing Japanese Literature will aid me in speaking and writing Japanese. I can write in Japanese but not to the level I want. What do you think?

Nope. It'd help your reading comprehension, though.

You improve your Japanese speaking and writing abilities by, well.. speaking and writing. Memorizing literature isn't going to help with that at all.

Go ahead if you can read what I'm writing below without any problems. I warn you, reading and memorising literature will be much more difficult.

冗談きつすぎだよ。昨日ＪＦでカナについて質問してた 人が、今日は文学作品の暗記について質問してる訳でし ょう。物事には順番ってものがあるからね。もう結構日 本語を知ってるって事だけど、日本の文学作品を暗記す るってそんな生易しいもんじゃないよ。はっきり言って 私でさえそんなことできないね。少なくともこれくらい の文章がスラスラ読めるのは最低条件だと断言しておく ね。万が一こんなのも解読できないとしたら文学作品な んて１００年早いっつーの。なめてもらっちゃ困んのよ 、我が日本文学を。

To Nagoyankee:

I don't know if you misunderstood what I meant in my post. What I was trying to find out if by memorizing literature, my knowledge of kanji and sentence structure, etc. would benefit from it. I don't mean no disrespect in this post, I'm just trying to elaborate what I meant. Next time, I will myself more clear. Thank you.
