Japanese Lessons

Hi everyone. This thread will be for anyone who wants to learn Japanese. I will post a new lesson for you to study and then you will take a quiz on it. Every four quizzes there will be a test. If you would like to learn a different language then comment on my profile and I'll see about starting another thread. Anyone who can not be on that day for a lesson, quiz, or test can always make it up later. You will just have a little make up work to do. You can drop out any time just say so on this thread so I will know why. If you have any questions just ask and I will gladly answer. Also, this class is based on the fact that while doing a lesson or quiz/test you will not cheat and look at the answers. If you do cheat you will only be hurting yourself and you will not truly be learning Japanese.

Ok guys, I'm really busy today so I don't have time to do the full lesson, but don't worry, there's another way to do it.

Lesson 1 Part 2

Write down all of the English sayings I put up yesterday. Do not write down the Japanese though. See the English on the list and provide the Japanese. Try not to look at the Japanese but if you have to that's ok (Especially on the "I am fine, and you?" one.

If you have any questions or are confused on what to do please ask, and I will answer if I'm on. Again, I'm busy today but, I get emails whenever someone posts here, so I will be checking my email.

No, you say the Japanese when you see English. Say it out load though, it's better for memorizing.

The reason I'm having you write it down though is so you don't see the Japanese.
