I know that it has already been mentioned, but Japanese-online.com is a very good website... And I love their semi-new look!
I am not sure if anyone has mentioned this, but Pimlseur language programs are one of the best ways to learn the beginning of a language! Pimsleur is the best because all you need to do is listen and respond. No memorizing or quizes. Though in order to more fully understand a language you'll need to memorize tons of random vocabulary that Pimsleur doesn't teach you.

I had a look at japanese-online.com and thought it alright. I learnt A wa B desu, but then didn't need the site anymore as I found lessons near home instead.

I should get around to learning Japanese sometime. It's such a pretty language...
I'm sad that my school doesn't offer Japanese anymore.

When watching anime I prefer subs.
Sometimes I'll here a character say something along the lines of
"tekku dasai"
I know I probably spelled it horribly wrong or something...
I have no idea what it means and I hear it all the time (while watching anime)
What does it mean and what is it that they are actually saying?

In Japanese this form is WIDELY used because it means -more or less- "please" . example: "Please open the window" is "Mado wo akete kudasai". It's the most simple polite form of the verb when you speak to someone - there are various levels of "politeness", it depends on what kind of "relashionship" you are with the person you're talking with.
Intriguing, isn't it? wink
I hope I helped you... biggrin
