Japanese Language (Nihongo)
I am trying to learn the Japanese language, which to my ears is very pleasing, but I find difficult to learn. On this
page, I will list what I have learned, plus tips for learning the language for yourself. I hope it helps. Thanks to the
fine people at InnerTalk, for their 'Learn Japanese/Subliminal Japanese' course. (All entries will be the informal
tense. If you want to know the formal tense, buy the course at www.innertalk.com.)
