BearFaceOfDoom Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 I'd love to learn to speak japanese I'd also love to be able to read it because then I'd be able to translate my dvd head unit lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
addz Posted August 22, 2010 Share Posted August 22, 2010 Maybe try your neighbour/s?This is their alphabet, and a very difficult one too! (hope it's the correct one). There must be softwares you can buy with books? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ricky@Race-Tech Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 I can't imagine any part of it being easy. Speaking/read/writing. It looks faaar too much hard work. I'd stick to something like American. Looks a bit easier Quote Link to post Share on other sites
garbla900 Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 ive been learnig for about 3 months now and im getting not to bad at it. the way i learned was human english for my ipod..... i know sounds rediculos but it was 4 quid and it speaks to you so that you get the right pronounciation and everything. and they dont really have an alphabet as such i.e there is no english equivilent. they use sound i.e "you" is written anata but pronounanced uh-NAH-tuh and car is kurma pronounced kuh-RU-mah must admit im finding it hard as the language of beer is taking over lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SooperD Posted August 28, 2010 Share Posted August 28, 2010 That rosetta stone is awesome if you can get V3 with the japanese language pack. Tried russian and dutch.. Russian is SOLID !! Dutch is much easier as the alphabet is actual english letters rather than symbols.. It will be tough mate but would be awesome if you can do it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
