Free Online Japanese App - I need your Feedback - 01-08-2010, 06:57 PM

I am just developing an online language tool to help to learn Japanese (among other Asian languages). I have currently 40 lessons online, it is free to use and runs in your browser.

Learn Japanese language for free with 40 online Japanese lessons

I am now actively looking for people to give me feedback so that I can decide which features I will implement next. So I would really appreciate to hear from you. Also, if there is anything not working properly, please let me know. Thank You!

あなたのホテルに。。。 sounds like a dubious phrase. 1) You can go for years in Japanese and not use あなた and 2) chances are the owner of the hotel will not be the person checking people in.

Look at the first hotel lesson.

Did a native Japanese proof all these lessons?

Thank you for pointing this out. We will check that lesson with our Japanese translator. By the way, we had the lessons proof read by two Japanese natives but if you find anything else not correct please let me know so that we can get it corrected.

1) 料理人 says "ryoori jin" in romaji. But personally I almost never hear this term. コック and シェフ more often. (料理人 doesn't even show up in a dictionary search for "chef".

2) Isn't 医者 usually 医者さん?

In terms of user mechanics, it's not too bad. I would like to see an option for 'hiragana' instead of romaji though. Also, japanese aside you need to check your english spelling. 'Cutlery' has only one 't' in it.
