Hi! I don't care what you call me as long as it isn't Stephanie, or something along those lines. My real name is Tiffany Rose. I'm 15, going to be 16 in March. I was born in the year of the Monkey. I normally have a template, but I'm on a different computer. I have been into the Asian culture since I was really little. Like when I first could read "made in China". I am learning Chinese on my own right now, because my school lacks the Japanese language classes, but not the Chinese. So that's mainly the reason I'm here, to learn Japanese and Hopefully not confuse it with my Chinese studies.

So my name is Michèle, and im 18 years old. I live in the netherlands, zuid-holland.

I'm learning japanese on my own for maybe half a year. I really love to go to japan but need a partner, learn the language, and have the money.
So at least ive started at learning the language and i know some basics. My main problem is katakana, kanji and making sentences. But im working on that now.
An other reason of learning japanese is because of my japanese friends. So im very motivated to learn the language.
what keeps me from learning fulltime is school...

My hobbies are writing/ making music (on my saxophone)/drawing/painting.

Domoo! Watashi no nam'ae wa Ruth desu =D
Well, I've only been learning Japanese for 2 months so I'm not great. I'm 12, and obsessed with Japan! I love anime, manga, J-pop etc =D. So you know, hi!

Hi everyone ^^
I'm obviously a newbie, I'm 18 years old, I'm french and currently live in Montreal..... You don't need to know my real name, but if Mistouflette is too long for you, you can call me Misty ^^
Anyway, I don't speak Japanese (yet!!!! I'm gonna be the bestest Japanese speaker one day, just you wait >_<) well, I just know one word or too really, but for now, I am more interested in learning about the Japanese culture in general.
I am a bit of an anime addict (and it's real cool cuz I don't know a lot of anime, so I am discovering new anime everyday and it's awesome ^^) and my dream goal is to go live in Japan (well..... as soon as I learn Japanese that is sweatdrop )
So yeah, as I said, my motive to be here is to learn everything I can possibly imagine about Japan and, when the time comes (cuz it will!!!! Just wait 'til I perfect my Italian and then, Japanese here I come!!!! whee ), to be able to share my knowledge of the language with people more experienced in order to improve ^^
Until then, Ja Ne!!! (did I spell that right?? eek )

OHAIYO
Watakushi wa rhxys desu.
well not realy but there is a reason i use an alias. I got into japanese and its culture about 3 years ago when i first visited. Yet my problem is this. I ant remember a word. For the life of me. I know a few things yet thats it. Im 16 and live in london UK. Im a total fan of jrock. And thats about it. I need some help, learning the laguage and would like a teacher of some sort. Oh and i need some help in translation. How do you say slave of god in romajo and kanji. I know it would end in gami but thats it.
Bye

Hello, I am XInternetOtakuX, I am 15

I have been trying to learn Japanese by myself,using pocasts and stuff by japanesepod101.com, it was pretty helpful, except I had no way to really practice it besides repitition, I also am in the midst of learning Hiragana, but all I got is flash cards( crying ). I really hope to gain a better understanding of Japanese culture, i find it so interesting, like their Valentines! The girls give the guys gifts! Way different then it is in the U.S.(But they do have a day a month or so later right? White day?)

anyway, I hope to get a lot out of here, and hopefully give back aswell!

Hello, everyone!

My name is David, and I have a severe case of infatuation with the Japanese language and culture. I hope we can have a lot of fun studying it together!
