People want to learn Japanese for a lot of reasons. You could be moving to Japan or taking a holiday there. You quite possibly don’t even have to speak Japanese but want to just for something to do. One thing is for certain though, and that is that being able to speak another language is worthwhile.
I was planning to take a long trip over to Tokyo, and for that reason I felt that I wanted to teach myself how to speak Japanese. Being able to converse properly would be beneficial I felt rather than pointing at things for 3 months. I am often asked whether I can speak Japanese fluently and am not sure what to tell them.
I speak with confidence now I feel when talking Japanese, but there is always more that you can achieve. I doubt whether I will ever know it all to be honest. New words and phrases will always crop up that you don’t know. I am actually able to watch and fully know what’s happening in Japanese cartoons and movie now without subtitles. If I can sit and watch a movie in English and know what’s going on, then there’s no reason with a little work I shouldn’t be able to do the same in Japanese.
I must admit I am getting closer to knowing almost everything but not yet. Going from nothing to something in regards to learning Japanese has not been easy and you will be asking how I have managed to succeed. If you want the honest answer, it took many hours of learning and perseverance. The trip from where I was and to where I got to was definitely not simple. In essence, learning any new language takes a huge amount of time and effort. But the important thing is that anyone can actually do it they want to.
It can be difficult to find time to study in between your work commitments and anything else that’s on. If, for example you use your time wisely you can fit in study.
