[z3r01]

wow! i got a 74 on my first test lol so far its goin great!

they have you memorize things, and work on pronunciation.
first lesson was about onokoto (boys) and nizu(water) and juusu (juice lol) and random other stuff, but the cool part is after 15 minutes they have you guess a pic with no help and you get it quick lol
crazy

[ALL DAY]

^LOL.

I know quite a bit of Chinese; I'm off this year, but I'll be continuing with it next year.

Good luck with the Japanese, though.

I wish that they offered a Lao course. It is sooo hard to find a good reliable solution to learning Lao. My Fiance is not the best at teaching it... (My Fiance and her family are from Laos)

@OP: I know this is a bit off topic, but are 'Ramen' the only instant noodles that you like? I'd suggest going to your local oriental market and trying a random assortment, if you have not already. Personally, I like what the Vietnamese call 'Mi Tom', which incidentally sounds similar to their slang for 'White Guy'.

[z3r01]

I know "ni how ma" means hello in Chinese

But to ^^, I have tried various noodles and I seem to always go back to ramen LOL

[Imahottguy]

Essentially... Ni hao is actually "hello", while ni hao ma is a question asking "how are you" or something of the like.

[z3r01]

man, level 2 is craaaaaaaaaaaaazzzzzyyyyy, it's like, they threw words I learned in level one and put it in a sentence and I had to guess the sentence...and the speach recognition gets harder to train you to properly pronounce it! LOL

But so far it's going great! Recommend it to all LOL
Funny thing is that I paid almost $600.00 and a friend of mine got it for $free.99 from a green demon LOL it's cool tho cuz I get support for it, he doesn't

[Cody Overcash]

I was thinking about trying to lear japanese like that, keep us updated with how it goes
