Hello,

Are you still interested in learning Latin? The Wikiversity language courses won't take off until at least another half year, probably more, but since there are so many people interested in Latin both here and elsewhere I decided to go ahead and offer distance classes based on the free online Latin course I wrote. Please see for details.

Hi there
Hi, I noticed you were a contributer to the Japanese Wikibook. Do you agree with some of the changes i made? It seemed that the book was in a state of confusion, with no real structure so I decided to make it more textbook style, and start at the very start. I am willing to continue, with as much help as i can get of course. :)

Thanks for that link, it really furthered my understanding..

Looks Great. i Think each of those sections should be a chapter?? And i would defiantly put the kana, and maybe some sort of introduction type thing in the first chapter.

looks great though.

Yeah its really getting there.

I'm going to England for holidays for a month, so you might not hear from me for a while. I think if we can basically try to do the same thing as some of the 'finished' language books we'll be on the right track.

Hopefully one day I'll be able to teach my friends Japanese using just this book :0

Cheers.

Do we need a dialects page? the hougen page does exactly that so shouldn't we just rename the links to it instead of copying it over to new page. Ikarsik 00:29, 4 November 2007 (UTC)

Japanese/Lessons/Lesson 6
You "cleaned up"" this one a little to well: http://en.wikibooks.org/w/index.php?title=Japanese%2FKana%2FLessons&diff=995272&oldid=988683 There were some very good sites at the bottom of the module, titled "Games". Maybe this should be renamed in a more Wiki-style: "External links". But the fact is, that some of these links are very good excercises for somebody who wants to learn hiragana/katakana. Excercises like those are of vital importance to learn kana quickly. Maybe you can re-clean it??? Regards, Shinjitsu 05:32, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

I just put the links back, with a different paragraph title and an extra line to explain what these are. Later I will go through all the links to see which ones are REALLY useful... Or you can do it, if you like... Shinjitsu 05:35, 7 October 2007 (UTC)

Japanese Wikibook discussion
Hi Balloonguy,

I just added a comment on Talk:Japanese which I wanted to draw your attention to as you've been involved in this book. --Swift (talk) 05:13, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
