QUOTE(aburex @ Dec 5 2005, 12:59 PM) you can read raw manga for kanji/writing lesson and watch anime for pronounciation/hearing lesson.. anime from manga usually uses almost the same dialogue in the manga so it's like you got the anime script.. maybe useful for learning japanese? I thought I'd throw my two cents on that. I'm interested in picking up Japanese as well, but before I do that I need to learn my mandarin first (only able to speak albeit broken). What anime did was just increase my vocabulary level, my grammar is still stuck. You really need some other sources in order to properly learn it. |

QUOTE(oe_kintaro @ Dec 5 2005, 05:35 PM) No, you don't really need mandarin to pick up japanese. It does help in some ways, but is not a prerequisite.
Kanji is not a big worry at least until JLPT level 2 . For level 4 and 3, you could probably breeze through it with just a little bit kanji. It only gets really tough suddenly when you reach level 2 While I agree your post but I am an illiterate Chinese hence my wanting to learn to write and speak mandarin.  |

QUOTE(320cbr @ Dec 5 2005, 06:39 PM) hm not sure abt that, maybe it is something to do with the story? the closest I can think is 'douzo' which means 'sila'  btw, I personally think listening to dorama works better than anime anime voice acting sounds over-acted at times plus in dorama u can listen how they converse in real life u'll notice the difference compared to anime And listen to the dreaded speech mumbling...  |
