•WANNA LEARN JAPANESE? —Elementary Japanese Lessons 초급 일본어 광자 If you're new to this language, I can teach you from scratch. The focus is on oral practice. I'll help you become fluent faster. If you are not interested in reading and writing Japanese, I can teach you using Roman letters. You don't have to prepare anything. I've got some materials. —Just practise speaking If there's something you don't know how to say in Japanese while speaking, ask me. •TO NATIVE SPEAKERS OF ENGLISH I've been learning English for a long time. I studied it at university too. And I want to brush it up to go to a higher level. Especially, fluency is my focus recently. So, if you're interested to talk to me in English, contact me. •TO NON-NATIVE SPEAKERS OF ENGLISH / ENGLISH LEARNERS If you're a non-native speaker who is trying to improve your speaking fluency just like me, please contact me. Since both of us are non-native speakers, we cannot teach each other but we don't have to waste time doing language exchange. I'm NOT saying language exchange is a waste of time, but if we are language partners, we can spend all of our time practising English, right? Plus, we can get familiar with non-native speakers' accents that we cannot hear from English learning audio material. There're more non-native speakers than native speakers in the world so that's what you've got to be familiar with! Anyway, if you want to practise speaking English, don't hesitate to contact me. •한국어 안녕하세요. 한국어를 공부하고 있습니다. 특히, italki에서는 말하기를 연습하고 싶어요. 그래도 단어도 많이 모르고 유창하게 말할 수 없으니까, 많이 가르쳐 주세요. 듣기도 잘 못 하니까 한국말로 말할 때는 천천히 말해주세요. 잘 부탁합니다.

    Language hacking? Do you know of Benny Lewis, an Irish polyglot? He recently published a language course called Language Hacking. What does this word mean, language hacking? Also, what is a language hacker? Are these new words he made up himself? Do they have something to do with 'hacking a computer'?

    What fruit do you like? —It's apple. Is the conversation above natural? Is it more cnatural to answer 'I like apple.'? Or, maybe 'I like apples.'? Or just 'Apple(s)'?

    We never use 'あなた' in daily conversations. It does not equal 'you' at all. Please forget this word and use the name of the person you're talking to, instead. For example, if you're talking to a teacher named Yamada, say 'やまださん の なまえは...' Using their names instead of the word あなた will make your Japanese much better. あなた sounds really rude. In this case, you're talking to your teacher it's better to say おなまえ は かんじ で どう かきますか. You don't have to say a word for 'your' because it's obvious from the context.

    話すときは、多くの人が「しょうがない」と言います。「しようがない」とは、あまり言いません。 友達とメールをするときは、話すときと同じように書きます。だから、「しょうがない」と書きます。 でも、小説や新聞などでは「仕様(しよう)がない」と書きます。「仕方(しかた)がない」と書いてもいいです。「仕様がない」と「仕方がない」は同じ意味です。 Christineさんが話すときは、「しょうがない」を使ってください。それがいいと思います。 書くときは、「仕様がない」か「仕方がない」を使ってください。でも、友達とメールするときは「しょうがない」と書いてもいいです。

    I like Cha's idea of using your family name. It's easy for foreigners to pronounce as well as you can keep your original names.

    Wow, such an interesting topic!
    I don't have any English names. Here in Japan, people usually don't have ones except some special settings like when you have English names just for fun in an English classroom for kids. It seems to me that it is more common to have English names in mainland China, Taiwan and South Korea.
    I understand the concept of having English names for the convenience but I still don't like it when people from non-English speaking countries have English names. 
    In Japan, when we use English or any other European languages, we tend to change the order of the names. Japanese people have their family names first followed by their given name, just like other East Asians. But when we speak or write in European languages, our given names come first. For example, when you take a look at a sentence from an article of some website, it says, ' "Chiang Hung-chieh is famous now because of Ai Fukuhara," said Wang'. Both Japanese people and Taiwanese people originally have their family names first but only Fukuhara (from Japan) has it after her given name.
    In my opinion, people should keep their original names and the original order, even when you talk to foreign people.

    日本語能力試験

    日本語能力試験を受けるので、日本語を聞いて耳を慣らせています。去年の試験では、聞き取り(聴解)が難しかったです。毎朝、インターネットで、私は日本のラジオを聞くことにしました。今では、習慣になっています。毎日、日本語を聞けば、聞き取れるようになると思うので、心配ないはずです。
    -------------
    In order to take the Japanese Proficiency Test, I am preparing to listing to Japanese. Last year listening to Japanese was difficult. I force myself to listen to Japan road via the internet. I seems to be a habit. If I listen to Japanese, then I will be better. No need to worry.


    Japanese learners of English tend to use the word 'listening' even in Japanese. But I recommend you to use 聞き取り or 聴解 since they are Japanese words and it's Japanese that you are leanring.


    'prepare to listen to Japanese' 日本語に耳を慣らす

    This phrase means to get your ears used to Japanese. I think it's worth remembering as a language learner. It's a useful phrase.

    私のプロフィルを正して下さい。

    以下は私のitalkiのプロフィルにいるテクストです。間違いがありますか。

    こんにちは、みなさん！

    私の一番好きな言語は日本語です。発音、漢字と仮名、語彙などが面白いと思うから、学ぶのをとても楽しんでいます。去年の１２月から一所懸命勉強しています。一緒に会話してくれる日本人がいたので、モチベーションを保って勉強を続けることができました。ですが、最近とても忙しくなってしまったので、練習してくれる人を探しています。


    英語の読み書きを上達させたい日本人を探しています。お手伝いします。私は日本語の読み書きを勉強しています。お互い、メッセージをタイプしたり、質問を聞いたり、文章を正したり、しましょう。

    スカイプを持っています。
