		<description>Hi Tae Kim!

This site of yours has remained idle in my bookmarks for  a couple of months and it was only now that I discovered what a great site this is! It is very simple and your lessons are easy to grasp unlike some resources that would make the learner hesitate to go on.

Thank you very much! :D</description>

		<description>HI Tae,

I really like your blog and site.  I did notice how you would never use romaji or promote it as much, why is that?

I have a lot of trouble remembering foreign characters, have tried to memorise Hiragana in the past with some success but tend to forget it, didn&#039;t try to learn Katakana and forget about Kanji.  Is there hope for me in mastering these complex characters short of using postit all over my house?

Thanks</description>

		<description>Hi Tae

Before all, I am not a English native-speaker, so it&#039;s possible, very possible I make mistakes, please forget me; second, I want to say, thanks you very much, this guide, your guide has been very useful, I&#039;m trying to learn japanese for a long time by myself, and I use some sources like &lt;a href=&#039;http://www.amazon.com/Dictionary-Basic-Japanese-Grammar/dp/4789004546/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;qid=1288569449&amp;sr=8-1&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;grammar dictionaries by Seiichi Makino&lt;/a&gt; and an &lt;a href=&#039;http://www.amazon.com/NTCs-New-Japanese-English-Character-Dictionary/dp/0844284343&#039; rel=&quot;nofollow&quot;&gt;awesome kanji dictionary&lt;/a&gt;, my only complaints are they don&#039;t use kana but romaji, anyway, I always go back here, with you remote guidance I understand japanese much better; I want to know you have some literature commendations, a kind of books than make vocabulary and grammar, in an 1-10 scale, maybe 4-5 level.

Thanks a lot, again</description>

		<description>I think it&#039;s really fun because the 3 languages share different similarities with each other, if that makes sense.</description>

		<description>Hi Tae Kim,

For the first time I find a blog which has captured the three languages; Chinese, Japanese and Korean. Althought I even haven&#039;t gone through reading all your stuff, the mere fact that I finally can read and perhaps in future even share my struggle and thoughts on these three topics is awesome!

I started learning Chinese when we lived in Taiwan (learned to speak first and  neglected writing for which I&#039;m no suffering...), moved to Singapore and finally got around to find time to start beginners Japanese and in between watching Korean movies etc.

People around me have been supportive but at the same time thought I&#039;ve gone mad as an adult learner to pursue these language goals:).

But glad to know I&#039;m not the only one and thrilled to share these interest with many others, thanks!</description>

		<description>hey Tae your block is really cool. I am a native spanish speaker and at the moment I am learning french, although at some point I am sure I going to try to learn either Japanese or  Chinese. It would be nice to hear your opinion about the  importance of each of them in todays world. The decision  learning one or the other also relies on that.
Keep on the good work.</description>
