(no subject)

It has been an obsession of mine since the age of 13 to learn the Japanese language. I've picked up bits and pieces here and there through exposure to it, but for the most part, I'm still pretty stupid when it comes down to it. I suppose you're wondering where this is going, right? We'll get there.

I actually have a few books about the basics of linguistics, as well as two different 'teach yourself' workbooks. I'm seriously considering delving into these and learning more of the language.

What I want to know is if any of the (partial or fully) Japanese speaking people on my list, here, would be willing to help me out if I get stuck on any problems or correct me if I say something in my journal that is a mistake?

Which leads to a warning to the non-japanese speaking: I may be practicing in my journal sometimes, just so you know.

I already volunteered to help out a couple people I've met online, and my nephew, I could probably try to help you too o.O

I've only been studying for a year and 1/2, so I don't know a whole lot, but I have a couple friends that I can get extra help from:P one is from Kyoto, and the other Tokyo. they're both teaching me^_^

I don't know what I can help with, but if you want to message me sometime, go for it^_^ :)

good luck:)

Thank you, I appreciate that.

Though, I'm a little confused... you're not on my flist... a stalker, then? Not that I mind, just curious.
