is it possible to learn japanese ?
i am 14 and i want to learn Japanese.
i speak English and Thai. i was able to speak mandarin Chinese and write fluently but when i moved to the US . i had no one to talked to and forgot. i regretted it .
i am quick at learning, when i was 9 , i moved to US and was able to understand everyday words in 6 months .
i was wondering is it possible for me to learn Japanese online?
any tips for where i should start the basic ?
i know it would be hard to learn because i’m not in contact or surrounded by people like i was when i moved to the US.
i know a kid’s brain learn quicker than adults so i want to start now.
anyone willing to help :

Don’t be affraid, japanese is indeed difficult, but it IS impossible to learn it! But it will take lots of time, energy (sometimes frustration), so you really should think about WHY you want to learn it before you sacrifice your time.
How to start
1. The first thing you should do is to get known with HIRAGANA and KATAKANA, both have about 46 signs and lots of exceptions! This won’t take long if you practice reading and writing every day. Try this: http://www.realkana.com/hiragana/
2. Make sure you hear lots of japanese, your brain will automatically save the pronounciation.
3. The best way to learn is to learn systematically, so you should buy a japaneselearning book. I hardly recommend “みんなの日本語” MINNA NO NIHONGO. A learning book for foreigners in Japan. The book is in japanese but you can also get the englisch translation.
4. About Kanjis
In the most learning books you learn some kanjis in each unit. By the way, Minna no nihongo has an own Kanji learn book.
5. More tips:
SPEAK OUT!
Not just learn and read all the time, but practice your speaking too. Try to get native speakers to talk to you.
LISTEN!
Listen to as much japanese stuff as you can. Radio, Tv, YouTube, podcasts, songs, news,.. everything!
READ!
Practice your reading every day, speak out loud while reading.
Practice! Practice! Practice!
You won’t learn japanese by learning 10 minutes a day, but if you really want to learn it make sure you learn a lot!
I hope this helps, and you really should get some japaneselearning book (maybee some dictionary and kanji-lexikon later). Any more questions? Contact me at kokonotsusei@gmail.com >.<
がんばって!。_。
