Japanese! Sometimes simple, sometimes almost incomprehensibly complicated.
Learning any foreign language can be slow and painful. But being able to communicate in a foreign country--even if it's just ordering coffee, is so rewarding. For one you get your coffee, right? And you now can understand and relate to the people around you a bit more.
Here is a tiny bit of Japanese that can enhance your trip to Japan (and/or your anime watching experiences!).
This channel has posted many videos of single short phrases. They're only about 5 seconds long, so you can just keep playing them over like a sound bite. Repeat and remember..
This girl teaches basic Japanese phrases, etc. by way of Youtube and her trusty sharpie. She's not the best speaker, but I think these videos are rather good.
Just listen and repeat and repeat!
This post is especially for my parents--who are coming to Japan this summer! :D I'm so excited to share everything in my life with them!
PHOTO: Don't you want to understand? ^_^ This is some wall art near the Sakura Hostel in Asakusa in Tokyo. It's a bunch of traditional Japanese ghosts and creatures ^_^ My favorite is the little kappa on the end.. the one that looks like a turtle? They are mischievous creatures that live in rivers ^_^
