Kakkoii desu. Anata ha nihongo wo hanashimasu. I thought I was the only one (I need to learn that in Japanese). What type of computer do you have? Because my computer won't allow me to type in Japanese (I've tried). Soshite, anata ha nihon ga sukidesuka?

Dude, Japanese rocks!
:D

Second, it's just Windows XP, but I downloaded this really sweet little program that lets me type out my words in kana and then convert them into Kanji if I want! I love it! :grin:


And I very useful tip for you!
-When it's being used as a particle, the character "ha" is still spelled as such, but it's pronounced as "wa." (Soshite, anata wa nihon ga sukidesuka?)


がんばって! :grin:

Naniyo? There are 2 members who can understand and speak Japanese!!!!
Geee, I love anime and manga, but I'm clueless about ever forming a sentence in japanese except the real basic introductory phase (Hajime mashite thingy)

Alright, I think I'm the only one who can read/write chinese character then???

It's Hajimemashita, and thanks for the tip, paperflowers. Also, although they mean different things, Kanji is derived from Chinese language, so if you learn Kanji, it's as hard as learning Chinese.
