Japanese Language Study Club

Learning a language is hard to do at any age. Here is a method of learning that is updated and clarified. This club will reflect basic elements of Nihongo. If you study the lessons in the forum at least 30 minutes a day, you can learn to speak Nihongo in a matter of a few months. However, it takes years to master (so let's be realistic. ^_^) However, here, you can grasp Nihongo the same way you learned English when you were young. There will be simple words (with pronunciation), and you will progress to complex phrases. Stages of learning are: 1) English 2) Romanji 3) Katakana 4) Hiragana 5) Kanji Lessons will include audio information that will help in correct pronunciation and sentence structure. The courses here will provide English translations and brief explanations for each lesson. The first few will cover pronunciation, laying the foundation for learning the vocabulary, phrases, and grammar components that are explained later. In addition to this, there are exercises that will help in Nihongo grammar, and verb conjugations. Practice your Nihongo as much as possible. Even if you can't manage a trip to Nihon, watching Japanese movies / anime, reading Japanese magazines / manga, eating at native restaurants, and talking Nihongo with friends and family will help reinforce what you have learned.
