random thoughts

@ CIV Kid, I think we're just too used to reading romaji so when somebody comes up with a nice phonetic spelling, it just boggles our eyes. あにめ or アニメ? I always forget.
 
its the second one... あにめ = hiragana, which is used for japanese words and アニメ= katakana, which is used for forgien and imported words. Theres an other writing system called kanji... which are chinese character for japanese words (i think?)

yeah, the Kanji is ... not so fun, but I was actually wondering if they considered anime incorporated enough into the language to write it in hiragana. I guess not. Heh, I'll start taking Japanese again in about a month or so, might as well brush up.

Look at my sig... Japanesepod101 is like the most awsome tool for learning japanese. if you go to the website or download the itunes podcast then youll agree with me that its the best. Lol someone in my state, virginia, has a license plate on his car that says jpod101... :lol: its that good!

Edit: Watashi wa "japanesepod101" ga daisuki desu yo! "japanesepod101" wa monosugoi desu!
