Michel Thomas Ok, so I'm over half way through the Michel Thomas Japanese foundation course. In this I am learning the basic structure of a japanese sentence. For a Danish/English speaking person, this is a very strange (but interesting) way of constructing a sentence. I pressume Japanese people think the same about English/Danish. Even at this early stage of my learning process, I foresee a problem; understanding someone speaking japanese to me. I hope Italki will help me in that regard. I just made this entry as a test. But if you have some good ideas how to improve my listening skills (very basic) I welcome any recommendations.
