Hi! My name is Rachelle, I'm a college student from the United States hoping to study the Japanese language in order to travel to Japan some day. It's always been my dream to experience the life and learn of the culture the Japanese have to offer. Every day I fantasize about the scenery and the encounters of people I'll meet when I get to my desired destination. I just want to be able to fluently speak my mind and emotions to these new friends.

    Konbanwa!

    こんばんわ!

    Hajimemashite watashi wa Kai desu

    はじめまして わたし は かい です。 (Your name should be written in Katakana since you're not from Japan, but I am unable to write Katakana to show you.)

    Nihongo o naratteimasu, yoroshiku onegaishimasu!

    にほんご を ならっています,よとしく おねがい します。 (I don't think "naratteimasu" is the correct word here, but I'm not a native Japanese speaker, either so I can't be sure. There's a chance I'm wrong, too, so I guess I wouldn't worry about it.)

     

    Think about learning Hiragana and Katakana! It's actually pretty easy. I used an app called "Human Japanese" to self teach myself Hiragana and I do believe, from what I remember, they taught a bit if not all Katakana syllables, too. There is quite a bit of reading, but I found it fun so it didn't bother me. Hope you will give it a try!

    Writing almost random sentences in Hiragana (2nd Attempt) わたし の ねこ は [wet] たべもの が すき。 (My cat likes moist food.) [I wasn't sure what the correct word for "wet" was since there were so many different choices. I was going to use "しめる", what do you think? Was that the right choice? Why or why not?] わたし の でんわ みどり です。(My phone is green.) わんぴいす の るふぃ,とらふぁるが は わたし の すきな きゃらくたあ です。(Luffy and Trafalgar from One Piece are my favorite characters.) とり は さえずる に そと。(The birds outside sing.) おんがく は じんせい です。 (Music is life.) わたし は あさごはん たべない です。 (I didn't eat breakfast.) Thank you for taking the time to read all these sentences! I must admit for the third line I used google translate because I wasn't sure how to construct the sentence together, but google translate cannot be trusted most of the time. Doing my best to get out of the habit of using it so that I can learn on my own. It's just making larger sentences that I'm tempted to check if it's correct. The struggle of knowing the words, but not how to string them all together! :c Please correct me on any mistakes! I really appreciate any feedback! Thank you, again.

    Got Milked?

    For example, pumpkin seed is obviously a better choice of magnesium intake, and two teaspoons of dried and ground basil powder have an equivalent amount of calcium for a glass of milk.

     

    I felt this sentence ran on a little too long and there should be a pause somewhere to catch your breath. Otherwise it looks great.
