I do :P...I need one of those cool looking hats. I HAVE one of those hats. O_O I bought it in Boston, and Christ is it cool. :P I adore them.I have one too. It's a real one from the USSR era of Russia. Has the hammer and sickle on the front and everything. :lol:
I dont place that much value on it. I'd rather learn a more useful language based on the world economy such as chinese. Japanese is only spoken by a small fraction of the world's population. Doesnt have that much use outside of Japan.
This strikes me as a really weird topic for some reason.
Anyway, I'd like to know Japanese, I just don't care enough to learn it.
Also, I took two years of it in school, so I know a little. I'll catch phrases when I hear it spoken, but I don't come close to understanding normal speech.
Im alredy fluent in spanish and english but I would like to learn japanese but also german and russian. Anyways, I like the japanese because Im an anime fan and I want to understand what they say without reading the subtitles.
I'm definitely not one of those people you describe TC. I would only vacation anywhere overseas if I could afford it five times over, so if it was a possibility that I may go to Japan or for occupational reasons have to speak Japanese, then I might consider it more important.
the most valuable language to me is the one of my Ancestors, which is German.
Japanese is kind of middle ground, I'd learn it simply for it's diverse and interesting history, although in the modern world Chinese is probably more practical (it'll wind up like that show FireFly, I'm sure it will. for those not in the know, 500 years in the future there were only 2 languages, Chinese and English)
have zero interest in spanish, so it as a language holds no value (personally) to me. Portuegese though is a different story.
I have no reason to learn Japanese. I don't know anybody Japanese, I don't intend on going there, and I've never once in my life needed to understand anything in Japanese. I'd consider more useful languages, like Spanish, French or even Chinese, but Japanese has no real use outside of Japan. I can understand that it would be useful for many people to know though, and as a language it's probably not that bad.
