What's the easiest way (and quickest) to learn Japanese sentence structure fundamentals.

I had a HORRIBLE JPN 101 class and have since taken a couple others (am in 201 this coming semester)... awesome, I know lots of vocab and kanji and shit NO FUCKING FUNDAMENTALS THOUGH.

It's horrible when I'm trying to form a sentence I feel like a retard because I know all this complicated shit but none of the basics. :\

I speak Spanish, French and English. >_> THESE LANGUAGES DO NOT WORK THAT WAY. At all.

tl;dr: Teach me how to make sentences in NIHONGO.

Oh you clever bastard you.

Am now reading through my old JPN101 book, it's actually not that bad though it doesn't actually explain a lot of the basics... instead it just kind of shows them to you. (Anyone else notice this while studying Japanese? Teachers will do this many times in the first couple classes, they'll show you something then say "oh but this is complicated to explain so for now just memorize it" it fucking pisses me off.)

there's nothing wrong, people just reply like retards cause they don't know shit, or so goes my theory

OP I would pick up a japanese primer book from my local library and go through the lessons, as simple as that; there's a ton out there. "Basic Japanese" "Lessons in Japanese" blah blah
I haven't used the kind of books usually used in classroom learning (genki, japanese for busy people, etc.) but rather self-study type books
Depending on the book there'll probably be a section where they introduce new vocabulary too.

You can also go with a (systematic) grammar book but that is much harder and better left as a reference in my opinion.
An example of this kind of book is "outline of modern japanese grammar" by 庭三郎
http://www.geocities.jp/niwasaburoo/mokuji.html

Right now I'm holding off learning any more grammar until I get through all the jouyou kanji since what usually trips me up when reading a sentence is the kanji rather than the grammar.

If you're looking for something to help you with grammar, pick up Japanese, the Manga Way.

Sounds stupid, but it's one of my favorite references.

There's a few reasons for this.

1.There's a /lang/ board. There's a /lang/ board. There's a /lang/ board.

Actually, there's several things wrong. In addition to what's been mentioned in >>1104422, if you're too stupid to pick up the basics of Japanese during MORE THAN A YEAR of schooling, and you have to come ask 4chan for help, you're fucked. You should just give up. On Japanese, on school, on life.

Really, this type of question doesn't belong on this board. It's been answered WAY TOO MANY FUCKING TIMES, and the OP isn't even trying to teach himself, he's fucking failing with someone else teaching him. Ergo, he's a retard.

Oh, also the fact that troll.
