Not bad, but it won't teach you to read or spell the words. Also, the Japanese lessons in particular can be a bit confusing when they keep varying the pronunciation of what I believe to be "sukoshi" (a little) and others: The speaker keeps on chaning his or her mind as to whether they're gonna pronounce the "u" and the "i". Okay, so I realise the word would be written in kana anyway, so anything goes for pronunciation, plus I realise that romanisation is frowned upon by some people (not me, I condone the idea of bridging gaps between language you stupid otaku assholes, go jerk off to some Battlizerless sentai), which is why they'll say that "there is no 'u' or 'i' in that word".Originally Posted by rubah
I say you should definitely give the Pimsleur method a shot, but make sure to try and read up on the romanisation and transliteration methods, as it'll make remembering some of the words one HELL of a lot easier.
