We do have strange stereotypes about America too; you know how Americans are depicted in anime.
Learning language is fun itself, so I'd recommend you start when you want to.
I can help you if you come to /lang/.
I'm used to trolls because I frequent /b/ and /a/, and sometimes browse other English boards and forums.
Many 2chers get trolled hard by Sparky though. Seems a little difficult to handle trolls in English. It's our second language anyway.

What stereotypes do you mean?
I'm Japanese, but I have no idea what you are talking about.
And just stop overgeneralise, I mean, don't use WE in that context.
You aren't representing the rest of us. That's it.

I'm not so sure about American stereotypes in anime, but I'm sure they aren't as bad as what the European trolls of /g/ would say about us.
I probably won't learn the language anytime soon, it's not that I don't want too, but rather it's work and I'm just not motivated enough. I do have some language programs on it though, and I feel like it would be easier to learn than, say, English.
As long as I'm here though, maybe you could answer a question I've always wondered: Many (not all) anime characters I've seen appear awfully white, rather than asian. Any specific reason?

ok, then.

If that's the case, you're a total retard. Do you even have reading conprehension skills?
Can you read "you know how Americans are depicted in anime."?
Do you really think "we" always means literally all the Japanese people?
I hate to say it, but you ARE stupid. Well, you don't need to get out of here.
You faggot can stay here. I'll leave.

Hey-o friend. This thread is generally for Japanese to ask specific English questions.
You're question about cracker anime characters would be most relevant in the Chat in English thread.
Btw, I noticed you came from /g/, welcome.

Ah, English is the easiest language to learn. There're tons of excellent texts, dictionaries, teachers, and whatnot.
If you want to learn Japanese, you're out of luck... You have to go through the hardest way: Self-teaching.
>Many (not all) anime characters I've seen appear awfully white, rather than asian. Any specific reason?
I guess artists, directors, characer designers and others realted to anime production don't care if they look white or yellow.
I don't think the majority of audience doesn't care about it either.
As long as charaters look cute/cool/any-good-adjective, it doesn't matter to me.

Thats a reasonable explanation, I suppose I kind of knew that, but was just wondering in case I was wrong.
As for Japanese, I will just have to find out for myself how hard it is, won't I?

Yeah. Try it and see how it turns out to be.
If you really want to learn language, don't give up just because a particular text/dictionary/method didn't work for you.
Another way of learning may be good for you. Take it easy and keep learing.
You won't fail as long as you keep studying.

Don't worry one bit.
Spoken Japanese is quite easy to understand if you put your mind to it - learning
basic Japanese grammar does the trick. In fact, there are many American people posting
Japanese vlogs on youtube and many of them are quite fluent.
Meanwhile, I think it's tough to read Japanese due to kanji and vocablary - words that are
used in writing tend to be more difficult than those in conversation.

>The key point I want to ask you is the usages of
>"American", "America's", and "of America" .
>Thanks in advance.
*'s shows ownership. for example:
"bob's dog" means that bob owns the dog.
But this is for an entity.
for "she's" this simply means "she is"
>She's America's representative
She is America's representative.
American means person of America
>She's an American representative.
She is a representative of America.

To answer this question I must say that
>1) She's a representative of America.
and
>3) She's America's representative.
Are basically identical, and using them is down to your preference.
In my case I'd say "She's America's representative" because it is shorter, but either is fine.
As for number 2,
>2) She's an American representative.
This is actually different. When saying She's an American representative it could either be taken as:
A) - She is a representative of America
or
B) - She is a representative that is FROM America.
Case B) is actually the correct meaning of number 2), as saying "She's an American representative"
doesn't actually mean that she is a representative of America, but that she was born in America, and that she happens to be a representative from an unnamed country.
If you were in America, we would understand what you mean from the surrounding context, but B) is actually the correct usage.
So to summarize
1) and 3) are identical, talking about the person representing America
And 2) is actually saying that she is a representative that is American, and may not actually be representing America.
Hope that clears things up.

I don't doubt that. My goal is to one day learn the spoken language, as it does not seem difficult.
It would be nice if I were able to read it too, but that seems much more difficult and I will save that for later.

Not exactly. The second one carries the additional connotation that she's America's *only* representative in the situation.
The first one could mean that, but it also allows for other representatives to be.
Changing the "a" to "the" in the first one would make them more equivalent.

NSG=Nihon Souka Gakkai
NSG is the worst cult in Japanese history.
The head of NSG(Daisaku Ikeda) has been expelled from Nichiren-shuu.
Nichirenshuu and NSG has a relationship similar to Baptist and Jehovah.
NSG has a political group called Koumeitou.
I'm sure that koumeito get a huge amount of
donation from NSG, which is illegal.
I believe that many people have been murdered by someone in NSG,
or someone related to NSG.
NSG is connected with Japanese justice system,
therefore, police always put some reason to not investigate the
NSG related crime.
Japanese media are scared to say the dark truth about NSG and Koumeitou.
Anyway, please type soukagakkai and press 変換 key and turn soukagakkai
to 創価学会 then click SEARCH.
