learning japanese

[Ah_keong]

Actually that's the reason why i lost interest in studying the language.
My original intent was to make friends with Japanese but realised they don't give a **** to people outside their race. So I gave up studying , no longer see the purpose.

Actually people from Kansai / Kyushu / Hokkaido area are very friendly. My first penpal was from Hokkaido.

Good luck!!

Listening and communication, if you can master speaking and listening, you can make friends easily.

The problem is because the first impression you get from Japanese is "it's a foreigner, does he/she understand Japanese?"

I was in USJ and when I started speaking Japanese with them, they felt easier to communicate, and at the same time, they will also want to learn English from you.

And if you can't speak, you'll naturally feel you have a barrier between you and them.
Believe it or not, I have friends from Tokyo, Hakata and Osaka.

Sorry.. anyone know anywhere I can climb Disney or English movie with Japanese subtitles or Japanese dubbed ?

I know this is not the area to ask but just trying my luck as I wish to better improve my Japanese through either listening to Japanese dubbed or reading their subtitles with popular movies such as Frozen etc. (Hollywood/Disney etc)

Not studying now, heard this sensei quite good as he stay in singapore for quite some years.

 

[dimitri_can]

Moriyama sensei was from Ikoma. Then he left to start his own school.
