I didn’t know about that website. I will check it out. An example of what I am talking about is the following: to learn the word to lend かします you’d think about lending cash. What do you lend… Cash… かします. I’m not sure if were thinking the same thing? (´･_･`)
I was thinking for vocabular mostly. But it could help with anything else also. And sure, I will give some examples later today, because I am about to leave for work. I was planning to give some examples, but last night all I had was time to write up the post! I apologize for that. I am not sure if a thread would work very well though. A user supported mnemonics database you can search for a particular word or kanji would be even better….
Nice to meet you!
Welcome to the Forums!
What do you plan to do with medicine?oh… and could I please have a code (^-^). My e-mail is adriana.nicole@gmail.com
Thank you!MORE WORKSHEETS! Quizes, Season Finals, These things would help me!
I would also love to share the bible in Japanese (^-^). It is one of the reasons I am learning Japanese also. Welcome!
Elenkis – thank you very much!
サンフランシスコであえるといいですね.
I can’t figure this one out. I know it says something about San Francisco, but that is all I can figure out!
I don’t particularly enjoy hating on anyone, so this post did irk me a bit. Many kids go through an immature phase, but you never know what could come of it (for example: Rachel). I just try to ignore them.
I don’t think all anime and manga is childish, and I far more enjoy watching it than any popular American television series, such as, Jersey Shore or Family Guy. Manga and anime that are deep and intelligent are not hard to find. Even if some anime or manga is childish, I don’t think there is anything wrong with a person for enjoying it. It’s fine and healthy to entertain your inner child.
Anime helps with my learning because I enjoy listening to the language and recognizing new words or grammar. It also acts as a motivator for studying. Of course, you couldn’t use anime or manga alone to learn Japanese, but I don’t think there is anything wrong using it as an additional tool.
I agree with your statements on what people think of when they think of Japan! It is very true! One you forgot to mention, that I hear often, is Japan has “sex-crazed and abusive” men everywhere.
I am wondering, honestly, what are the other things you appreciate about Japan? What is your motivation to learn Japanese? What are you favorite things about the Japanese culture?

I try to do what was mentioned above, but I get so easily bored and distracted I can’t usually focus long enough. I like to instead play games with the vocabulary or try to make up stories with them. I use Quizlet.com for my flash cards, games, and tests. I also use Anki, but only once I feel I have a good grasp on the vocabulary. Here is an example of making up a story for a Vocabulary Word (some of these are my husbands!). およぎますー”Oh Yogi (bear)” Don’t Go try and SWIM! つまんない (tomorrow night) is going to be so BORING! It’s hard to make stories for everything, but it helps a lot of you can with at least a few.
Hope this helps, I will be watching this blog because I still need all the help I can get!
Caught up on my anki-reviews! I am working on memorizing my い adjectives and kanji!
Studying my four stroke Kanji, finishing up memorizing my い ａｎｄ な adjectives/conjugations. I am also reading and working through a couple additional textbooks when I don’t feel like staring at the computer or memorizing my TextFugu vocabulary!
