Since this is the Japan forum, I figgured it would be important to have a thread about the Japanese language. Use this thread to discuss the language, as a question and answer, and to exchange information about useful sites and books that may help us Gaijin learn it.

I'll start by posting a link to a useful site: http://www.thejapanesepage.com/news.php
The Japanese Page is very useful in learning the language, especially for beginners. It has various study tools to help you learn the Kata and Kanji and you can even test yourself to see how much you have progressed. Enjoy.

You posted this thread at 3:01am (presumably Japan time) and bumped it at 10:35 am.

Why? What's wrong with you?

Also, you may want to proofread your thread title.

June 3, 2007 and Precise/nonsmoker thinks that there isn't any information about learning Japanese on this board. Furthermore, you want information about learning kanji. With all the time and posts you have in the last month, don't you think that you could find some information. Heck, look at my signature. Almost all the information in my signature applies directly to you!

I think the only reason why you want to start this thread is to seem special. Rolling Eyes

You are very tiresome. Rolling Eyes
