Recently ive been interested in learning a bit of japanese as i'm planning to visit next year. With this thought, I went ahead a downloaded japanese learning package (6gb in total) to get me started. This may not be as effective as get taught in a class of such, but its a start!
Forgive my lack of knowledge for the language, as a few things that im going to explain might sound a bit stupid to some of you =P
I'm up to a part where stating what somthing is (very baisic I know) - aka "Kasa ga arimasu" or "Neko ga imasu". I have no trouble reading it at all, it's just the pronounciation.. to me, both sound the same (the arimasu/imas)? Do many people have trouble telling the two apart when they're talking to someone? Maybe its just the way the people pronounce it in the video
. The 'ga' part also is hard to hear when spoken, I think its pronounced somthing like nguaa, according to the teachers in the video. Would it matter if I just said 'ga' like its spelt?
Thanks in advance
