Lang-8

I’ve used lang-8 a couple of times in the past and I’ve just started using it again. Only problem I’ve had is that the people posting in Japanese seem to be waaaaay ahead of me in their language ability so I don’t get to read much.

There any other lang-8 users on here, would be nice to read some other users posts and see what others are writing.

I’m on as Lord_Azael if anyone feels like adding me btw, not that i’ll necessarily post much…

@Kaona: Needs MOAR POSTS! But that first post, did you write it yourself or Google translate it? ;) hehe I only say that because I didn’t think you’d been studying Japanese as long as that (or that you would have known all those words/kanji back then). Don’t be offended XD
Also, you’re learning Korean too? How do you find learning two languages at once, or do you not need to study Japanese as much anymore? Do you use Japanese resources for learning Korean? That would be my goal, to be fluent enough in Japanese that I could use it to learn other languages haha “Language Laddering” I think it’s called.

@Ryuuguu I felt the same one after only one post so I didn’t post again…it’s been like 2-3 months since then.

I think Lang-8 should be use later in the lessons because of the corrections are really tough to understand (especially when you are only season 3-level japanese and just writing is though enough)

So for me, I’m waiting to be a little better and I’ll give it another shot since it’s truly a great learning ressource

@Mister, I’m afraid to say I was a complete beginner back then and I did Google Translate it. :P

For the past 3 years I’ve been learning French, German and Japanese and ALL of the language learning has suffered. Thankfully I no longer have to learn French or German so I’m able to focus completely on Japanese now.
I only know the Korean ‘alphabet’ and basic words. Korean (from what I’ve gathered) is a lot harder to grasp than Japanese but the learning of the ‘alphabet’ and words themselves are pretty easy. You can learn the whole ‘alphabet’ in a day as there are only 24 characters!

I hardly learn Korean (unfortunately) because I’m more into learning Japanese right now. Perhaps when I’m more advanced in learning Japanese I’ll dive into Korean as my dream is to be fluent in both of them languages but being advanced in Korean and fluent in Japanese is good enough for me. And reading all this I think I’m a bit ambitious. >.<''

Just be careful because sometimes lang-8 realizes how much you actually suck at a language
