Country names in Japanese
Even if you speak fluent Japanese you'll still always be asked "Where
are you from?" and be expected to answer with a foreign country. Here
are a few to help you out.
If you don't know an answer, just guess. After 20 minutes you'll have them
all!
Recommended Courses
There are loads of great resources out there, and one of the good ones
is the "Pimsleur" series. They have a "Quick & Simple"
starter pack and also a full on "Gold Course". They are well
recommended if you want to learn Japanese, in January I used it to learn
everyday Spanish in a month!

Or for slightly cheaper, but one that requires a bit more work, you can have a look at the Living Language series. Although now I would prefer the Pimsleur course above, I actually used
the Living Language series myself when I first learnt Japanese. It's good,
but you have to keep repeating and repeating the same CDs, whereas the
Pimsleur makes you think more, and reviews the language as you go along.

If you teach English in Japan you might be interested in my new Classroom English / Classroom Japanese CD.
All the Japanese on this page is suitable
for either guys or girls, and is pretty normal,
everyday Japanese. This means it's not too
formal, but you'll be fine as long as you
don't say it to anyone too posh!
