Progress

私は日本語を話が下手です。私は日本語を読むが下手です。でも、日本語を勉強することが大好きです。

now, if that shows up as anything besides blocks for you, it means that I really need to work on my grammar. Ok, I need to do that for English too, but I still need a lot of practice for Japanese.

this thought came to me during class, sensei was writing a few sentences on the board and I realized something. I could read it, and I understood it. This is something that I've wanted to be able to do for a very long time. I'm no where near fluent, and I certainly can't respond quickly when asked something, but when I hear it, like in a show or in music, I can understand the sentence structure, pick out where words being and end. That makes me happy.

what made me realize this was the word 野菜、やさい。Yasai- it means vegetable. Looking at that kanji on the board, being able to read and understand it. Yeah, I did good.

now I'm going to go eat some vegetables. Bye.

今、私は野菜を食べます。じゃあ、さよなら。
