Description
From my tumblr~ [link]Today in japanese-language-class we got our first text in hiragana and should translate it to romaji. Since I haven’t been able to learn all the hiragana-symbols yet I had some trouble in translating them, but somehow I was successful like the others and at least were able to write them down in romaji.
Since I am still a noob and beginner I of course weren’t able to see a single word in that mess of symbols and having all that repeating “NO” “KO” “TO” parts didn’t help either. It was rather confusing and just blew my mind LOL I think I was constantly asking the teacher things like “What? Can you repeat that??? Is it.. Koto Ko? Or Ko to ko? Or Ko toko? Or even Kotoko?!??” XDDDD
I felt dumb, but the other students didn’t get it as well so yeah…
Really, Japan, why’s your language so… strange XD How can you tell a story with constantly using 80% of the same Symbols over and over again. HOWS THAT WORKIIIIINNNNNGGGGG LOL It’s so different to my language but that’s what I like about it so much XD ♥ I hope I will at least be able to understand a little bit of a conversation in this language. This would be cool and totally satisfy me LOL
At least I already know how to ask someone if something is a clock or not.
“Kore wa tokei desu ka?”
Oh yeah, baby, my badass japanese-language skillz rock the house XDDDDDD’ This is totally going to help me out if I am lost in japan one day (not) //shot
No really. I like that language. Even though I sometimes feel like the dumbest person alive when it comes to languages （＠￣∇￣＠）
“Watashi wa baka desu”
(To all the japanese people: I am so sorry for failing XD I hope it doesn’t hurt too much in your eyes reading that noobish sentences QuQ”)

Well hey, don't feel so bad. You were born learning one of the hardest spoken languages and you speak english near perfectly which is also extremley hard for most non-english speaking people to learn. I'm sure you'll grasp japanese soon enough at this rate. uwu It just takes a bit of time,

Kanji: This, times 25. I personally learned kana by writing sentences with them all. the. time. It still took a long time to get used to them though -- renshuu shite ne, nakama-san!

Du hast angefangen, Japanisch zu lernen? Ist ja cool^^ Hiragana und Katakana sind eingentlich total einfach wenn man sie mal kann (sie in 10er Gruppen zu lernen hilft, bzw auf Unterschiede/Gemeinsamkeiten zu achten hilft iwann lustigerweise auch (き hat ja z.B. ein Strich mehr als さ usw.)). Kanji sind sooo viel schlimmer zu lernen 
Viel Glück auf jeden Fall, das wird schon
がんばってね~

Wow. Japanese sounds like a hard language to learn. You'll never catch me trying to learn such difficult languages! I'll stick with Spanish and French. I'm learning those right now.

This is exactly me like a month ago @_@
Notecards, notecards, notecards! Study the symbols in groups of 10 or so then you'll get 'em memorized quicker! With the symbols memorized, things start getting a lot simpler~

Hahah, I know your pain! XD It takes a careful ear to distinguish all of those syllables! It'd be easier to understand specific words/meanings if you knew kanji, though~
Ganbatte kudasai!! ^w^

HEY, HIN-KUN.
YARANAI KA?
no no, that's awful Sundance, stop it.
Seriousness though, I wish you luck with Japanese! It's certainly an odd language to wrap your head around, but at basic level it's actually very simplistic once you memorise the rules or so I hear.
Actually memorising the katakana and hirigana though, for me, is a nightmare. I remember I had to use memory tricks to memorise some of the characters (such as 'To' looking like a big toe with a nail in it) Even now I can barely remember them...:s At least it's not Mandarin Chinese, huh?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
LOOOOOL staph. XDDDD
Yeah, I am using the same memory tricks as you seem to do. Like remembering the Nu because it looks like noodles or something like this. And the HA because it looks like someone sneezing or so xDDD
It's hard but I will do my best <3 and Yeah, god, never would try to learn these. They would kill me.

I think the funniest thing about Japanese is this situation my teacher's husband got into once
See they went and visited Japan, but he ended up getting a really bad headache. So he goes into a pharmacy shop thing and asks "Aspirin?" And then the clerk says
"No Ice Cream!"
xD Because the Katakana for Aspirin (A-su-pu-ri-nu) and Ice Cream (A-I-su-ku-ri-mu) sound really similar xD
But yeah Japanese is ridiculous, but Latin is even worse |D There are so many dumb grammar rules in Latin that I just can't even. Well, then again Japanese has a ridiculous amount of grammar rules as well... Gosh, those Te forms really destroy you after a while |D
Oh how bout this sentence?
"Tenki ga atatakunakatta desu."
Atatakai means "warm," tenki means "weather,"
To make a adjective negative, you drop the I and add "kunai" at the end, so atatakakunai
To make an adjective past tense, you drop the I and add "katta," atatakakatta
To make it both, you drop the I from the kunai form and add katta, atatakakunakatta
Try saying that 5 times fast
And that's just to tell you that it wasn't warm outside xD

I can imagine, and having to memorize all the kanji! That must be really hard o__o

Haha actually only a few were relatively difficult! Since the Kanji are based after like pictures, that's how I would memorize them lol. And a lot were just like, other Kanji but with an extra line. For example, "root" is just the Kanji for "tree" but with an extra line at the bottom lol.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The most common kanji for root is 根; that is, the radical for 'tree' next to the radical for 'good', 'northeast', or 'stopping'. While the tree radical may be relatively visible, the radical for good appears to be a sun atop some random lines, not very obvious.
Once you get past the first 20 kanji or so (at most), the pictures start tapering off. Even if you memorize the radicals, the meanings of the kanji have changed so much that it's impossible to understand them that way.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I only took 3 years of Japanese so I was taught that "root" was this 本, as in "hon" from "nihon."
I don't even remember anything else haha

Es gibt Menschen, denen liegen Fremsprachen und es gibt Menschen, die so ihre Schwierigkeiten damit haben
Aber Japanisch ist auch eine sehr anspruchsvolle Sprache und die Schriftzeichen sind so schwer zu merken.
Aber gibt nicht auf. Du wirst es schon schaffen^^

Heh, ich versuch auch grad die ganze Zeit japanisch zu lernen, ist echt schwer xD

Oh je und ich hatte schon mit Englisch am Anfang Schwierigkeiten. >_>''
Ich glaube um so eine Sprache richtig zu verstehen muss man sie wirklich live miterleben.

Ha, ich lern momentan auch Japanisch und weiß genau, wovon du da redest xDD Ich versteh da auch nur Bahnhof und bin froh wenn ich mal ne Vokabel finde, die ich kenne. c':
Es macht aber trozdem tierisch Spaß :'D

Haha sehr gut XD Ja, so gehts mir halt auch!
Btw, Ich hab gesehen du nimmst commissions an? Darf ich dir eine Point-Commission aufdrücken wenn du Zeit hast? XD

Omg :'D das wäre total cool! Ich liebe deine Bilder und deine Charaktere!~
Also nur zu >w<
Schick mir 'ne Note, das geht wohl einfacher c: bzw ist übersichtlicher :'D

Haha, wieviele Charaktere machst du denn auf ein Bild bei einer Pokemon-simple Background Commission? XD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Bis zu drei Charakteren c:
Ich muss allerdings noch 2 Commissions fertig zeichnen, es könnte also ne gute Woche dauernd xD *langsam ist*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
3 charaktere + dem einen der schon im Bild mit inbegriffen ist, oder insgesamt 3 Charas? XD
XD aww Ok, das ist kein Problem für mich. Well then würde ich halt so ein Bild gerne haben mit drei charakteren; Archeru, Lotus (Grovyle) und Hin (Quilava) °w° (und wenn noch ein chara mehr geht würd ich mir über Camelia (Vibrava form) nen Ast abfreuen haha XD)
Wenn das für dich ok ist <3
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Eig nur 3 insgesamt :'D Aber ich hab schon bei ein paar anderen Ausnahmen gemacht, also geht das völlig in Ordnung c:
Hast du da irgendwelche speziellen Wünsche? Also was sie tun, etc? Ich mag es genaue Infos zu bekommen, also keine falsche Bescheidenheit xD
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Awww, das wäre so cool *A* Wieviel würdest du dann bekommen? >U<
Hmmm vlt wäre es cool wenn sie zusammen an einem Tisch sitzen und Ramen essen und dabei halt viel Spaß haben XD Lotus hätte wohl ne Tasse Tee daneben stehen und wäre eher der ruhige, erwachsene, der halt vergnügt in sich reinschmunzelt. Archeru hätte wohl Sake neben sich stehen und würde das Essen nur so runterschlingen weil es halt Archeru ist XD Camelia wäre wohl vergnügt wenn auch schüchtern und würde vergeblich versuchen die Nudeln mit Stäbchen zu essen und Hin würde wohl gerade irgendeine Geschichte erzählen und seine Freunde damit unterhalten. Sowas könnte ich mir vorstellen XD

Uh, da fällt mir auch schon was zu ein :'D
Allerdings werde ich das auf meinem anderen Account hochladen (weil auf diesem hier nur Pony-Krams kommt c: )
Ich gebe dir aber bescheid wenns fertig ist xD Also keine Sorgen~

Pft I love this drawing~ The "I am a book LOL" on the back made me laugh. It doesn't really relate, but once we had a cover teacher who was Spanish for our Geography lesson, and this guy got a Spanish dictionary and asked her "Are you a toilet?" in Spanish :'D
