So... u wanna learn japanese, Lesson 3

NOTICE: Yes, i copied this off a different website, but thats just because i didn't want to type it all...

Although the writing system used by the Japanese is difficult, Japanese words can be written using Western characters - this is called rômaji - and you will find that it is quite easy to read words written in this way and pronounce them correctly.Try studying the tables below then writing and learning all of the characters in japanese, and make sure you know which characters go with which romaji!!!

Vowels

a	i	u	e	o
Ah,	we	soon	get	old

is a useful reminder of how each vowel should sound. Long vowels are simply pronounced as a continuous sound, equal in value to two identical short vowels. However, there can be some variation in how the different transcription systems indicate them. Sometimes they are shown with a bar ¯ (macron) over the top of the letter 

Our method for these pages	â	î	û	ê	ô
Variants you will come across	aa	ii	uu	ei, ee	ou, oo

Syllables 
n is the only consonant not combined with a vowel. Generally it is pronounced like the English n but if it is followed by syllables beginning with b, m or p it is pronounced more like the English m. All other sounds in Japanese are combinations of consonant + vowel.

ka (kah)	ki (key)	ku (coo)	ke (kA)	ko (co)
sa	shi	su	se	so
ta	chi	tsu	te	to
na	ni	nu	ne	no
ha	hi	fu	he	ho
ma	mi	mu	me	mo
ya		yu		yo
ra	ri	ru	re	ro
wa				(w)o
Modified syllables:
ga	gi	gu	ge	go
za	ji	zu	ze	zo
da	ji	zu	de	do
ba	bi	bu	be	bo
pa	pi	pu	pe	po
Combined syllables:
kya		kyu		kyo
sha		shu		sho
cha		chu		cho
nya		nyu		nyo
hya		hyu		hyo
mya		myu		myo
rya		ryu		ryo
gya		gyu		gyo
ja		ju		jo
bya		byu		byo
pya		pyu		pyo

So... u wanna learn japanese, Lesson 2

1. In certain circumstances (particularly at the end of words) u disappears in ordinary speech, so desu is pronounced dess
   
2. i disappears in some words, for example shi often becomes sh', so deshita is pronounced desh'ta
   
3. fu is pronounced halfway between fu and hu - try breathing gently between parted lips.
   
4. Japanese r is very different from English - part way between r and l. To pronounce it correctly the tongue must touch the palate just behind the teeth. Try to listen to native speakers or tapes.
   
5. Normally g is pronounced hard (as in English get) but some Japanese consider it more refined to pronounce it nasally (as if there were an n in front of it) when it occurs in the middle or last syllable of a word - for example arigatô (thank you) is often pronounced aringatô.
   
6. Take care with the double consonants kk, pp, ss and tt. There is a slight pause between them, as in the English book'keeping, map'pocket, gas'station and last'time.
   
7. Note also that the combined consonants such as kyu, hyo must be pronounced cleanly as a single sound. Thus hyu is pronounced as in the English 'huge' and not as in 'he uses'.

so... u wanna learn japanese, Lesson 1

and i'll tach you.

so... like any language, u'll need practice.

first, u need to know about how the language works.

first, u need to know that there are FOUR alphabets...

Hiragana-for any native Japanese words

Katakana-for any foriegn words 

Romaji-roman letters, aka the english alphabet

Kanji-Chinese characters, but have different pronunctuation

Now, you need to know the pronunctuation of Japanese... characters

Each of the vowels shown are pronounced as the letters in random colors
