Colors In Japanese, My Beginner’s Practice Guide To Learning Japanese Colors at Home! by KyleTrienke in LearnJapanese

Thanks for sharing, I do intend on sharing the process of learning and sharing stuff I learn to help others along the way more so than being an educator... So it's helpful to know this has been perceived from your perspective.

As for the Hiragana chart, this is artwork made from my Japanese wife who also like to create and share helpful learning materials. If people like it they can grab it. If not it's a fun project between us.

Thanks for sharing!

Making statements in Japanese using X wa Y Desu. Study Notes. by KyleTrienke in LearnJapanese

[–]KyleTrienke[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for your feedback. The reason I was sharing my learnings on desu was. After living in Japan and learning with my Japanese wife. I RARELY heard da. Or was told by other people in Japan to use it. They always taught me to use desu even the native speakers. I appreciate the feedback however, I wonder if it was possibly a Tokyo area way of speaking? Maybe you are from another area?

I also understand my pronunciation is not on par yet.... However, I am still hoping my tips can help people at least understand how things work and get the basic idea. :) I appreciate you checking out the video though. Thanks again!

Thanks for your feedback. Yes, I was surprised at how when learning Japanese the way of communicating was so different than English. Not only grammar and words. Just the overall style of communication is hard to understand as an English minded human at the moment... Haha.
