Excited To Learn ! - Last Exile - 07-28-2004

hey,

Well i have been telling myself that it would be great to learn japanese. well i was at hastings (used and new entertainment store) and i was looking at new games for my PC and i stumbled upon one last set of :
Instant Immersion Japanese New & Improved.

So in seeing this i freaked out it is a 4 disc set and looks very good and was a steal only $19.99!

( Check It Out Here ! )

Well take a look at it it looks good i cant wait to dive into it and then i can start enjoying the other sets that arent dubbed yet. tell me what you think of this software.

Sounds cool, personally I would take a class. For me its hard to learn from a CD. Japanese is an extreamly hard language.

My keyboard is sitting on top of the package to it. My dad bought it a few years back for me because he knew I was into anime. For me it didn't work to well, not saying that I really tried. The best part about the set for me was the translator, which I had already d/led off the web a few months before.

I took two years of Japanese in high school, I still only know like 5% of the language. My teacher said that you learn Japanese so fast if you stay in Japan for more than a month.

Hi ,
Not so long ago , I found a link to a FAST server that had the famous ?Pimsleur?

I was able to take : 2 CDs ( Pimsleur learn Japanese I , Pimsleur learn Japanese II )

These CDs were out of this world !! , it was a great find

Pimsleur learn Japanese I:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0743523539/102-9965355-8748114?v=glance

Pimsleur learn Japanese II:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/067131548X/ref=pd_bxgy_text_1/102-9965355-8748114?v=glance&s=books&st=*

I didn?t know they were that expensive $_$.. each CD is around $345.00

Here is a snap of one of the CDs I downloaded

I also managed to grab some learn Spanish and Russian CDs.. it took me two days to dl 4+ GBs , then the server died , maybe you could find things like this in private servers

edit:
all 3 cds ...only $695. ... is that cheap or what !

pimseluer is supposed to be the cadillac of learning programs. i personally learned from a pair of books that were really used and i feel they were perfect for me.

learning japanese is way easy. i can't think of a language that is easier. but beware and make sure you know what to look for in a course. make sure they drill you on grammar not just pronounciation. also make sure the course teaches you how to read from the get go.

Excited To Learn ! - gala - 07-30-2004

and japanese phrase book is scaned

here is a sample

=========================

So far , I finished two units

The way they do it , is to start the unite with a conversation in Japanese , when you first hear it you won?t understand a thing , then this conversation will be broken into bits and explained in English and repeated to you more than once until you can speak with a nice Japanese accent

edit:

Yeah Pimsleur are top-top with their quality but they are expensive as hell , unless you find them for free heheheBig Grin

I think you're absolutely right Tsunami. Grammar is very important. The easiest way to learn a language is knowing how it works.

Excited To Learn ! - rav96 - 07-31-2004

yep Grammar is essential inorder to fully know a language!

Japanese is V hard to learn to raed it though i learned some Katakana coz thats easy but just to read the avearge news paper you have to know 1000+ caracters

learning to read is a no go area for me, it takes the avearge Japanese till the age of 12 to remotely read a news paper!
