[QUOTE="Neil.T, post: 599255, member: 4160"] Yeah, I've been recommended Duolingo by a few people now. I still haven't looked into it properly, though. Just... only so many hours in the day! 😆 You've got a good mix of resources there. Me, I started with a library book called [I]Japanese Phrases for Dummies[/I] and then moved on to the more demanding [I]Teach Yourself Japanese[/I]. Humble beginnings, but it gave a really good grounding. I once signed myself up for a six-week summer short course but it was cancelled due to lack of applicants. (This was at Dundee Uni a few years ago.) Another resource that's worth a mention is the website Maggie Sensei: [URL unfurl="true"]https://maggiesensei.com/[/URL] I've dabbled with that and enjoyed it. Oh, and... watching anime and Japanese films, of course! That's useful too. I've never had the opportunity to use Japanese conversationally, though. [/QUOTE]
