My teacher for Japanese is all wonky too, with order of learning. Really slow at it too.

Lol, maybe it's a japanese teacher thing. How long have you been taking it?

I've been learning a bit of japanese by myself, you know self-teaching. I'm not that good, but I can say some useful things. I listen and sing along to Japanese songs, I even have one memorized biggrin

I still haven't learnt numbers and time without looking, so this is gonna be a big help! Arigato for putting this up!

Doomo arigatou gozaimasu *bows* for your help with the kanji! I know them personally, but I don't have the program installed to write in japanese text. I should have it next year though. ^^ I'm planning on adding your kanji into the original post. I'll make sure to put a thank you there though. Also, I should get more up this summer.

After this week and next are over, I should get some free time to beef up this thread (finals will finally be over!) Thank you for your patience guys!
