I used to be fluent in Gujarati, but I've forgotten it because I've been speaking pretty much only English since I was 5. I want to relearn Gujarati and become fluent in it once again.

Learning a language in an anime forum? Hmmm...it shouldn't be too hard to figure out what everyone wants to learn ^_^. I tried learning Japanese from books, but I find that it's so hard to learn...and Japanese classes are always full at the university I go to!

Quite a lot, and I'm wondering whether or not should I have taken linguistic
as my major haha. Currently able to speak 6 languages, mostly south east
Asia languages. Been wanting to learn Japanese, and I'm taking a class on it.
Wondering whether or not I should learn Korean.

But I do wish to learn French, Spanish, Latin, German and Greek. Obviously
though, if I do not take classes on them... I don't think I'll ever go and learn
them by myself hehe.

Nihongo o chotto hanashite. watakushi wa yonnensei desu. nihongo o kiki yasui desu ga, nihongo o hanashi chotto nikui to omoi desu. nihongo o yomi mou yasui desu.

I can speak a little Japanese ^_^ I'm a fourth year student. I think that writing japanese is easy, but speaking it can be a little dificult. Reading Japanese is also easy.

I took Japanese mainly for anime reasons, but i've grown to just love the laguage, the sounds, and being able to talk beind people's back hee hee ^_~ I've taught my siblings some japanese... not very good words. mostly things like baka, hentai, arigatou gozaimasu, ohayou gozaimasu, oyasuminasai, and seishi

most of you might know most of these words, except the last one. Let's just say that when i told my friend to tell his female japanese teacher "boku wa seishi o taberu no ga skidesu"...hehehehehehe the result was funny from the way he described how his teacher's face turned red from either embarrasment, laughter, or just down right appalled. ^_~

Hmm..I'm from Australia, which is pretty isolated, and everyone speaks English... Except for my neighbours, who are Turkish. I so wanna know what exactly the woman shouts at her husband... lmao.

I'm learning Japanese @ school- I have no problem reading and writing, but I have trouble understanding what people say. I get nervous when I speak Japanese, because we have actual Japanese student teachers listening. I don't like to offend them...:P

I wanna learn German, Spanish, Italian, Russian and possibly Romanian. Japanese is the most wanted, because the English translation of any anime entering Australia is gonna be completely different and probably stupid, compared to the original.

I speak english and i know a little french but the language i'd most like to learn is obviously Japanese. Not only so i dont need subbed anime but also so i could travel to Japan for a holiday and be able to find my way around.

Well, I´m spanish and, of course, I speak spanish but I want to learn more english and japanese to understand many games I have.
But english is easy to learn but japanese is other thing, the japanese have different methods of escriture and other things making difficult to learn. And, of course, the letters are not the same and to read many texts in japanese is very hard with katakana, hiragana and kanjis of course.
And, why not?, I like to learn french and chinese...but they are difficult as well and I don´t have the time to study all of them ^^U

Ofcourse i speak english, if i wouldnt major of these people wouldnt understand what i'm talking about, if they even care, but anyway
With english i speak also finnish, which is my homelanguage, with that i speak also swedish, because all the finns are forced to study
it. Please don't think that finnish and swedish are the same, while they arent.

With these three i also speak germany and russian. I would want to learn to speak and study japanese and italian.. ^^
