You might want to check http://kanji-yorokobi.blogspot.com. It’s some sort of journal of my effort in understanding Kanji.
よろしくおねがいします。

I wanted to suggest Lingoes. it has dictionaries for many lanaguges but anyways for korean
It’s like rikai-chan for korean except it does NOT unconjugate anything for you and you have to separate the particles from the ting if you want to do the cursor look up thing AND AND
or you could just look it up in the dictinoary thing. but i like the cursor like thing even i though i have unconjugat emyself

and the korean grammar that’s online is really helpful. but i’m sure you already know about it?

I’d suggest adding iKnow (http://smart.fm/home) to that list.

As for rikaichan… because I don’t like popups, I use the http://jisho.org/ Bookmarklet instead. Simply drop it on the quick links bar. You can either hit the link and paste some Japanese in there. Or you can do the same and type romaji if you don’t feel inclined to hit the Alt+Tilde combo. Or you can just highlight (doubleclick) text in a paragraph and hit the button outright. Much simpler.

Thanks for all these links!

You might want to look at http://www.yellowbridge.com for Chinese, as they have a pretty amazing 汉字 dictionary, among other things.

Love your blog btw, since I’m learning both Mandarin and Japanese.

Hi – I created a Japanese Kana desktop widget that you are welcome to download for free – the site is located here: http://www.concise-courses.co.uk

The desktop widget works on windows vista and rotates Japanese hiragana and katakana characters with their equivalent english phonetic sound.

Stephen,

There really is no strict guideline here about what to put in a resume (CV). Usually, if a company or school requires JLPT certification, it will state what level. I have seen requirements for at least 1 or 2 but never as low as 3.

I read your little comment on putting passing the JLPT as a credential. Is it true that in America that you need to pass 1kyuu to be able to write it in CV’s?
IMHO, here in the Philippines having passed 2kyuu goes a long way already. Do you know how about other places? Thanks for the info btw and I truly find your guide very helpful in my self study.
