Today I went to the library for my brother's school assignment and while I was there I saw some people with books on learning to speak japanese. In my mind I felt like walking over there and informing them that unless they live in Japan, california or boston there isn't much chance of using japanese for anything but manga or anime.
I'm not being rude by thinking that as I've had only a few times when I was able to chat with someone in japanese. Plus most japanese think it is rude to speak japanese in america, that makes it way harder to find someone to talk to.
Anyways my question is how many people here have tried or wanted to try to learn japanese? If you tried and gave up why?
