im wanting to learn japanese on the computer, but i dont know a real good japanese-teaching site to study over.
is there a site that has:

-names in japanese
-audio translations
-all or main vocabulary
-japanese alphabets
-sentence structures

basically, anything that has examples for almost every lesson, and that'll help me speak like a normal japanese person would. but im wanting a site that doesn't involve an online tutor, i just wanna be able to read over the instrunctions, listen to audio samples/translations, all that good stuff.

dont mention rosetta stone, because i dont want that at the moment

There is no quick and easy way to learn Japanese. It takes a lot of hard work and serious dedication.



Websites are not always the best way to learn Japanese. Most websites are run by people with no teaching credentials and are not even native speakers of Japanese. Some of them are just interested in making money and not in helping you in what you need to be successful in learning Japanese.



The best way to learn Japanese is by taking a class, enrolling in a course or investing in a good textbook. If you can't take classes then the self-study method with the correct resources is a good way.



The key to learning Japanese effectively is to work on your grammar, listening, speaking, reading and writing. Its best to think of these as separate categories and focus on each specific category as these require different methods and techniques.



Start by learning the basics through grammar. These books really helped me.



• Shin Nihongo no Kiso I & II

• An Introduction to Modern Japanese by Osamu Mizutani & Nobuko Mizutani

• Japanese Demystified by Eriko Sato a self-teaching guide

http://japan-australia.blogspot.com/2011/05/japanese-demystified.html



These books cover both polite Japanese, which is extremely important to learn in order to speak Japanese effectively and causal Japanese, which is great for everyday conversations.



I also recommend trying to learn a certain amount of vocab or kanji each day as this helps you build up your vocab and kanji ability. I tried to learn 5 kanji per day or about 20 a week and did the same with vocab.



Watching Japanese anime or any Japanese TV program is a good idea for improving your listening skills and also your vocabulary. Keep a notebook and jot down any new words you hear. Then look them up and find out the meaning.

You might want to take a look at this website where there are some basic Japanese lessons. There are also many Japanese words and vocabulary available.

There's a free section which you can access after you sign up(you can listen to the lessons for free) and there's a pay section where you get the transcripts of the lessons, vocabulary and grammar.

Now me and my friends to buy something online you like, so very convenient, most importantly, the price is acceptable, sometimes seen in the store, but very expensive, reluctant to buy. You can now buy online the same, but the price is cheap, very happy, I hope you think so, I am pleased to share with you, I hope you find what you want as soon as possible.
