It has been quite sometime for me to use my Japanese language skills. I started learning the language on my own sometime about 10 years ago. I even did Japanese Language as a minor for my degree. There were several instances where I almost (take note here :-p) had the chance to really go to Japan and stay there.
I fell in love with the country and culture, and like many wise advise - One will learn more about a place and culture either by its food or language.
Perhaps it would be nice if I can share the knowledge about the language with others. Starting from today, I will regularly post basic Japanese language for others to start learning and enjoy the beauty of the language (just like I do). Have fun, ya..!!!
Lesson 1 : Basic Greetings
