Welcome !
Ahhh, little ol Rhode Island where all the rich people live , LOL. There is a ton of info here to help you with your Japanese in our old posts. If you have questions , feel free to ask and hopefully someone here will help you. Hope you are getting this nice fall weather down there that we are getting up here in Maine.

PS............Remember Japan is about 13 hours ahead of your time. Sometimes it takes a day or two to get answers here.
