Oh I was thinking underground mole people and wizards but I like your idea better

I knew it! I knew I was wrong but my stupid brain said otherwise, thanks

I'm using Busuu along with Anki and independent stuff I find online. I used Duolingo for a big part of my study but when I switched to Busuu I quickly realized I didn't know anything about sentence structure, grammer, or even kanji. So, in my opinion, Duolingo is great for learning words and the three writing systems but not so great about learning everything else.

Trust me, I feel the same

Definitely, I try as much as I can to use the Japanese keyboard and reading in Japanese. It's a cool language and same, there are some songs that I like that I have no idea what they're singing about

Ah, I didn't even catch that. OK then I might be wrong about it being derived from 話す, ah oh well, we're all learning

From what I understand (Don't take what I say as correct as it may be wrong) but when 語(はな) hana, which is derived from 話す(はなす) hanasu which is the verb to speak, is paired with a nationality, with some exceptions of course like English which is 英語(えいご) eigo, it describes a language. So, pair 語(はな) hana with 日本(にほん) nihon, Japan in Japanese, then you get 日本語(にほんご) nihongo, meaning Japanese. Another example is French which is フランス語 (Furansugo).

And 勉強 is the Kanji for べんきょ(benkyo) which means study.

Charlatan

That's cool being to speak and understand multiple languages. I started learning it because I think it sounds neat when people speak it. Plus, I want to go there one day for a visit and I don't want to be a typical 外人 (Foreigner) haha

はい、私は日本語勉強します。(Yes, I'm studying Japanese.) I've been doing it for the past year but not consistently. I can say and understand basic phrases but I'm far from being able to hold a conversation.

I want wealth for ease of mind. No more worries about food, shelter, and health for me and my family.

Well if they bothered to submit those patents instead of leaving them in the basement then they might be able to live in a retirement home
