はじめますて。

Hello, I'm Desiree and I rarely type in Japanese for fear of typos. I'm new. I am South Florida born and raised. Outside of anime, I like many things (such as WWE, sewing, and writing music.) Pleased to meet you and thank you.

Ah (if I read that correctly), IME does all the work for me, thank goodness. I am still learning kanji but I'm starting with radicals so that everything is easier to write and identify. Thank you for the welcome.

lol learning kanji can be hard sometimes , and after a while i forget most of them haha -_- What book do you use to study japanese?

I use various books and sites. I was using Genki Japanese but it doesn't hold my attention so well, so study while still trying books on. I was also using Pimsleur for building listening comprehension and picking up a few new vocab.

I took Japanese 1-4 in college, and we used the Genki textbook lol It was good for learning grammar,kanji, and vocabulary. I think learning Japanese grammar is easy , but learning new Kanji and vocabulary is more difficult.

When it comes to grammar, I can pick it up well when I have to read something but I can't apply it to my writing. I would probably use Genki more often but all of my study material is in .pdf format. I take lots of notes and leave sticky notes everywhere. It's been surprisingly effective.

Mmmm Possibly Paradise Kiss. I just have a soft spot for Josei anime.
