Just wondering, but in this day and age, would there even be a point in learning Japanese? What makes Japanese a better language to learn compared to stuff such as French, Russian or German?

nice picture,
quick answer, if you live in japan you must learn japanese
a discussion about what language is superior prolly wouldn't be a good idea

>> No.1915121

personal preference, interest, and people you know...

what defines a "good" language and a "bad" langauge anyway?

Interest. I'm interested in Japan, so I learned Japanese. I wouldn't learn a language if I had no interest in the country

I've always had the typical weaboo dream
(move to Japan, become mangaka/work on game design).
So I've been learning some.
Although at the same time I'm growing up and realized such goals are unattainable (even with an IB Diploma).
This might be a reason to lean it.

Honestly if its just fucking Japanese girls you are after don't bother learning Japanese. The girls here find it adorable when you try to speak some fucked up Japanese and think your way cooler speaking English to begin with. If you are looking for a deeper relationship then yeah learn it. The more I can speak Japanese the less I'm liking my girls personality so there is a downside.

>> No.1915185

Absolutely nothing. Japanese is a dying race, I give them 20 years before their people die off from killing themselves just like how they killed the Japanese Wolf into extinction.

The Japanese wolf cursed them.

there's a difference between just fucking japanese girls and actually having a relationship with one.
Japanese girls are like girls anywhere -- their personality is probably shit. Once they get past the novelty of your funny broken Japanese, youre the same as all the other people they know (maybe down a little because you're not japanese).
Same with them, then they become boring regular girls.

But if you find some that you actually connect with on a personal level, then more power to you. Good luck though.

she is a vain, boring bitch who only cares about how she appears to other people, make up , shopping and talking about going to fucking france. She never makes any decisions and agrees with everything I say no matter how much I try to get a rise out of her. Did I mention the boring as FUCK personality.

Girls love french, though. Especially when they can't understand a word you're saying.

And british accents.

There's no fucking point in learning German. I recently found out people in Germany spoke English well.

>> No.1915469

the IME thing microsoft has:
so lets say i wanted to saw "my name is X" you first type it romanized which is "watashi no namae wa X" then hit space and it will change it into "わたしのなまえはＸ”　Now with different kanji and shit the IME will auto convert obvious ones, but if it does it wrong you can just type what you want hit space and choose the kanji you wanted. The IME has a learn feature so eventually you have to hit space less and less.
final sentence: "私の名前はＸ”

seriously though-- If you want to teach here in Japan, then get teaching qualifications in your home country before you come. You can get a much better/secure/higher paying/enjoyable job at an international school teaching your subject of interest to smart, rich japanese/foreign kids. Or even better, get a masters and teach at a University (not as secure tho). Otherwise, enjoy working shitty hours at a shitty conversation school with shitty students.

Because it gives you access to the culture of the second most influential country in the world.

I say that because Japan is second only to the USA economically, and Japan is the only country to my knowledge that has created weeaboos in large numbers.
