But people use Roumanji?

I believe the Japanese people don't, unless they're trying to teach Japanese to someone whose language uses Latin characters.

Moien!

Makes sense actually.

Melbourne Cup tomorrow = my only betting day of the year. I don't play lotto games (unless they're gifts), I don't play pokies and I only go to the casino to continue drinking. Let's see if my method of choosing a winning horse works again

Now I'm dissapointed!









I didn't know that.

I'm not sure if they would even do that and it makes sense, not to. It's a general, if you learn a language, do it by the means of it's use and culture. Plus, written Japanese is a matter of recognition. I know we do that with our alphabet, too (not reading every single letter, but recognising words), but in Japanese that principle is even more relevant. I noticed myself, that I read Japanese much faster, than languages written with the Latin alphabet (relative to the fact that I don't know the language as well of course).

I think Roumanji is basically only used by otakus and for international ads or something

I think we learnt both together so that we could remember what the Japanese characters sounded like.

I actually find it deadly interesting, how I can read whole sentences in Japanese, understanding the meaning, because I recognise the characters, but not being able to know how to voice it out

It's just the whole different concept, that fascinates me

Well, I wouldn't know, since I'm doing it by self-study. However, in the online courses that I've seen, they always use hiragana for phonetics

I did a little research on Roumanji (or however written), but neither Google (NL) nor Wiki (also NL) showed up with decent explanations. Whereas "Japanese" (NL: Japans) showed me much more, except for the written characters, as I have appaerntly have to download a special thing to read them. (which I don't)

To come back with the recognition of characters, that's logical. But for me kind of harsh, as I have the impression they all look sort of alike. (with no knowledge whatsoever of the written/spoken language). I might be wrong though. But with Latin, this sometimes happens to me too.

Good morning/afternoon people!

Last saturday, Bullet for my Valentine was a blast !

Except for those stupid bodyguards who keep pushing back the crowd surfers to us instead of removing them.. Jezzz.

And at the end of the show, I managed to get my two hand on a drum stick but we were like 6-7 hand on it. One of the no-brainer bodyguard grab and pull the stick toward him (behind the fence) to remove a couple of hand and I was the last one on the stick. I looked him in the eye, he pulled again, he got the stick, crack it on his knee and throw back the 2 parts...

Way to go loser...Stupid jerk

But i'm sore as hell today But it is part of the Wacken training, lol
