learning Japanese

the journal of Michael Werneburg

twenty-eight years and a million words

Tokyo, 2009.12.10

I'm going to resume my Japanese language studies. This time, I've taken the plunge into electronic assistance.

My X'mas gift this year from Mari will be a Nintendo DS LL, and some software that will allow me to identify kanji just by scribbling them into the interface. It's also got some educational tools and dictionaries and the usual tricks.

Now to devise a study plan that can make use of the thing!
