    화이팅!!

    일본어를 공부한지 거의 2달이 다 됐다니.

    지금은 일본어로 간단하게 의사소통 할 수 있을 것 같애같아.

    실은, 공부하면서 걱정이 됐거든.

    일본어는 한국어과 단어 발음이 비슷한 경우는 꽤 많아서 헷갈리기 일쑤이다일쑤였다.

    한국어도 잘 못하면서 이렇게 일본어공부 시작하기 좋은 건지 모르겠는데... 어쨌든 열심히 할 거야.

    종국인면 일본어나 한국어를 배우는데 다른 나라의 사람보다 쉽게 배울 수 있단 말이말을 들은 적이 있어.

    그게 맞기는 맞는데, 아무래도 다른 언어라서 문법적으로 엄청 달라. 이 두가지 언어를 공부할 때 서로 도움이 되도록 했으면 좋겠어.



    됐다니/되다니

    It is not serious, but I recommand this:

    1) 공부한지 벌써/어느새 2달이 다 됐다.  # When you saying just fact

    2) 공부한지 벌써/어느새 2달이 다 되다니.  # When you looking back your past, the present tense, '되다니,' is more natural.

    3) 공부한지 거의 2달이 되어간다. # '거의' implies something going on.


    I'm not good at Japanese, however, maybe past tense more common in Japanese at example (2). "二か月になったとは。"


    같애 -> 같아

    Acutally, It is not serious thing. Instead, I am amazed your interest on Korean :)

    Because pronunciong '--아' as '--애' is dialect from old Seoul and Gyeonggi, most Korean are familiar. You can use '같애' in most situations and its pronunciation is accepted as slightly cute mood. But, it is not formal, so you should emphasize '--아' when you are in serious situation as senior person talking younger one.


    일쑤였다

    Past tense is more good when you're saying personal experience.


    이렇게 일본어공부 시작하기 좋은건지

    Recommand:

    (이렇게) 일본어 공부를 시작하는 것이 좋은건지 잘 모르겠는데


    I'm native Korean but I don't have deep understanding on Korean grammar and also not good at English.

    Although, your writing is so good and there are just minor correction.


    Good Luck!

    저도 봤어요 means I sawed/watched (and there are maybe someone WHO saw/watched same thing). 저(는) 보기도 했어요 I also sawed/watched (and I DID other things)

    There is no word likes "홈치다". If you were heard like that, maybe it was dialectal sound of "훔치다(2)". There are two words pronounced "훔치다": One is "steal", and other is "wipe sth up". "훔치다" usually means first one. Because "닦다" is more common word for wiping sth. But Korean(especially older people) sometimes use 훔치다(2) wiping a floor, table, or tears. In addition, 눈물을 훔치다(wipe one's tears) is very literary style. Also mostly used in third person.

    I think, nowadays, Koreans use '반말' when they meet a person who they thought him/she is pretty close to them. (But, you should think again in formal place... it quite difficult.) So, many Koreans use '반말' to their parents, and other very 'close' elders. It's a kind of a family policy. This case, selecting proper word is more important. Maybe the "오빠" wants to put words(말을 놓다) with you. Most Koreans don't use '반말' with no cause(even just one mention, they need a trigger for change. Especially both have different ages.). And some Korean guys fear that youngers use '높임말' to him, they thought people consider him as a stiff man(I think it's serious stuff :D). Except second case, anyway, using '반말' is maybe good. If you confused, asking him/her will be a best choice. And, '저' is not using with 반말. '~요' is informal 높임말. So, it can match both 저 and 나(but, '저' would be good). On the other hand, formal 높임말 '~니다' , it must be match only '저'. * Also, there are more 반말. 1 informal and 2 formal. But, formal 반말s are very rarely used.
