Thanks for the correction, now that I say it out loud there is a long vowel there. Anyway - I understand the dictionary definition of the particles, but something is missing. Like, you know when you study something or listen to a lecture in class and you're like "I totally get this" and when...

1: Can anyone explain to me (in simple, practical terms) the difference in usage between the は and　が particles? I thought I understood the gist of it, then I tried some practice exercises and completely bombed them - so now I'm totally confused. I'm using Tae Kim's Grammar guide, btw. 2...

My guess would have been さ or　ち, but it is written really oddly, so is わ. Not that I would know what it actually means though, and from the context what redmonster said makes the most sense.

This is the site I've been using to memorize Hiragana and Katakana. http://www.japanese-language.aiyori.org/index.html It gives you one set at a time along with pronunciations and examples of different words that use characters from that lesson, along with pronunciations. They also include...

Alright, I'm not the guy to be going to for Japanese advice, as I'm still learning my gana. buut I figured I'd drop this here: according to the website I'm using to learn Japanese written by some crazy Chinese dude, に "can be translated into English to mean "in", "to" or "from" - or other...

Thanks guys, d/L'd anki and the kanji deck, along with the stroke order font they recc'd. Although I'm not sure how to implement the new font, whether I should install it into the anki directory or in a system directory. Although I have to finish memorizing my gana before I can read the kanji...

Oh ok, yeah they weren't very clear on the exact usage of those characters so I kinda got the impression that it was optional. ありがと This is probably where it would help to have a teacher lol.

Good to know mate, the site I'm using actually has the stroke order for each character as well as pronunciations and all kinds of other info. So I know that "sa" can be written with the hook underneath attached or unattached. ^.^ It also explains how to be able to type Japanese characters...

I'm currently trying to teach myself Japanese now, I just started with memorizinng Hiragana characters and their pronunciations. There is a place somewhat near me that gives Japanese lessons for a very reaonable cost, but I figure I should get the memorizing bit out of the way first. Once I...
