I have been learning for 3 months now. I have gotten down all the hiragana/katakana so what should I do next? Any good sites for learning kanji??? Also any videos that are good to watch...AND has anyone else tried to teach themselves???I just do it because my school has no japanese language courses. Any help will be appreciated. =D
Jisaku jien, in the dark of the night.
Use your internet to your advantage. :3
There are thousands of sites where you can communicate with Japanese-speaking people. Find one and build a freindship between them, maybe latter you can write them letters and leave them voice e-mails. It helps to talk to an actual fluent speaking Japanese person, compared to another person learing. You can learn not only the language but also the culture that goes hand-in-hand with learing a language.
otakufag weaboo can't learn real japanese
If there really is such a dialect as "real" Japanese, what's so bad about learning "fake" Japanese? The limit of scope in which you can communicate while still retaining some speck of dignity? Hah! Dignity!
I'm assuming what >>24 means by "real japanese" is dialect and accent. In that case, I have to agree, that unless you actually immersed yourself in the language around jr.high age and had active interaction with that language, your accent and dialect will basically sound like a foreigner and not natural at all. Or at least, that's what my linguistic text book tells me.
i have japanese language books to help me plus tons of anime to watch, it really helps but i didnt well succeed cause i dont have someone to use it to
I'm one of those weaboofags who tried (as much as I felt I could) to learn stuff from anime/internet. So far I've learned just about nothing much. Yeah, I know hiragana and katakana a few kanji here or there, and a small handful of phrases, but that's really it. The most it could do in real life is impress some family or friends. The most practical thing I can think to do with it is use it to find some videos online or some doujinshi from a Japanese website. This doesn't bother me though, because that's all I really need. If you want to learn a language just take it at the community college.

Define 'real Japanese'. I wasn't aware that there was a 'fake Japanese' in the first place.
Weaboo fags can learn Japanese if they stopped stooping in front of the computer learning random tidbits off anime.
i think you would better learn the language if you are forced to use it somehow. like you have to read japanese documents or something. even if you spend time learning if you don't see a need for using it you'll soon forget it. happens to me all the time.
