Hello everybody~~!
I'm trying to learn Japanese here and I read it helps to be in contact with someone that talks Japanese so I was wondering if there was someone here that would like to chat with me (or exchange e-mails) to exercise Japanese or just chat about random stuff 🙂

Grts,

Naitnlev

That's perfect so far!
How long have you been studying it? I've been doing afterschool Japanese classes for nearly two years now, but I'm still shit at it! 😛

An attempt at translating my second sentence into Japanese;
Nihon no benkyou wa nan nen sei desu ka?

Yep, I know how to perfectly write Hiragana, and I'm in the process of slowly learning Katakana. I need to learn some Kanji soon as well...

I am learning japanese but I am still a beginner. I can write hiragana and am learning katagana but I don't know any kanji yet. i also know some basic grammer structure.

watashiwa kittysama desu.watashiwa nihongo ga itchinensei desu. (not sure if this is written correctly)

@Highway-STAR: "How long have you been studying it?" should be

(anata wa) dono gurai nihongo wo benkyou shiteimashita ka

I think what you did wrong was, referring to 'the study of Japanese' as the subject, not the actual person.So basically you were asking "What year level are you(Japanese study)?

@ladykitty: Here's a small tip. Because you've already used watashiwa already you don't need to use it again until the subject of the sentence changes. "Person A blah desu. blah desu." -> second sentence refers to Person A.

Also helps to write in Japanese so get the font installed. Using romaji isn't too great to learn Japanese if you want to write/read it but it helps with speaking kinda. -> that's what my Japanese teacher said. lol. it helps you memorise the hiragana and katakana too if you see it more.

It's supposed to say:
"Umm..Hello.Looks like you're studying Japanese.Keep at it.I'm still not skillled at it.Even so,if its just listening,I think I can do it."

But yea...its hard.But thats coming from a person who has never had a single japanese lesson in his life.Its hard to recommend where to start, but for me I learned kanji first then grammar....pronounciation was picked up through reading and watching anime I guess.Though nowadays I'm just watching anime since I'm a lazy pig.

I'm learning as well but through tons of schoolwork, the process is not progressing much lol I do learn a few phrases and basic words through anime but now I go online and look up the grammar. So far I can write a few simple sentences in romanji.
