Hey ya'll,
I picked up Japanese, i got an in for classes at the Japanese embassy and am HAPPY! Its great i have to say to be able to experience a new culture for free... Hail the language gods where they are... Am ecstatic.

So any1 interested in learning a new language, think Japanese, especially if you know Swahili... i have  a grand example, nani in Swahili means Who, in Japanese, nani means What. Crazy huh... so many similarities in terms of syllables and pronunciation, i would not shy away from saying that. I really enjoy my classes and believe that the Japanese language is awesome! (ask any! who watches anime!)

If you are interested, (and live in Kenya) check out,
