			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>How fluent is your Japanese? Moving from being a basic level Japanese student to a fluent speaker of the language is very difficult. Most students of Japanese fail to attain a high level of fluency. Learning basic greattings a few hundred words is quite easy in any language. But to develop the deep understanding required where you can speak the language in just about every situation is a challenge that can take several years of full-time study .</p>
<p>In the case of Japanese, you&#8217;ll find most. The way you understand, study and speak Japanese is about to change. We have the web&#8217;s only Intermediate level online Japanese course that will have you speaking like a native in just a few months.</p>
<h3 style="text-align: left;">What is Speak Japanese Fluently?</h3>
<p>Speak Japanese fluently is an Intermediate Online Japanese language program. It was created for students who can already speak basic Japanese. The program is was built on the premise that for a learning program to be an effective teaching tool it must be based on real life experience from the perspective of a foreigner living in Japan. My personal experience of <a title="learning Japanese" href="http://talksushi.com/learn-japanese/">learning Japanese</a> taught me many things, the most important being understanding the cultural aspects of the Japanese language.</p>
<p>&#8220;You&#8217;ll never be able to speak Japanese fluently without some understanding of Japan&#8217;s &#8211; the culture of the language and of the people. You cannot learn these aspects in a text book or at a language school. You either need to live in Japan for several years, or you need someone who has lived in Japan to explain them to you in the context of how they relate to language and communication.&#8221;</p>
<p>Out of my own frustration of <a title="Learning Japanese Online" href="http://talksushi.com/learning-japanese-online/">learning Japanese</a> I decided to develop an Intermediate level online Japanese course that would let you learn the Japanese language as if you were living in Japan. I know that you don&#8217;t want to waste time learning grammar rules from text books just to grasp the basics of the language. I know you want to learn real Japanese that will help you communicate at a fluent level. By developing a online Japanese language course based on my real-life experience in Japan, I have helped hundreds of people to achieve their goal of being able to speak fluent Japanese.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[Learn to speak fluently Japanese with the web's only intermediate level Japanese language program. Discover the culture of Japanese and soon hold long conversations with native speakers.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>Are struggling to make progress with your Japanese? Would you like to <strong>learn Japanese fas</strong>t &#8211; be speaking and reading Japanese in months inseatd of years?</p>
<p>Maybe you have the ability to hold short conversations, but know if you were to go to Japan you wouldn&#8217;t be able to survive.</p>
<p>I lived in Japan for 10 years and know what is like to be stuck at a medioca level.  It took me a few years but I made progress and broke through the &#8220;basic speaker&#8221; barrier. Unfortunately most students don&#8217;t, never reaching a proficient speaking level of Japanese.</p>
<p>And I can understand way. It takes most students many months or several years just to learn the basics. For most people, progressing to an intermediate level seems either to time consuming or near impossible. Maybe, this is where you are at the moment. And you know what more study isn&#8217;t always the best answer. What I have discovered is that to actually engage in a conversation with a native speaker you need to experience the language. Normally, this would require you to live in Japan for some time.</p>
<p>However, I realize that most of you are not in the position to jump on a plane and spend the next year living in Japan. Maybe you are living in Japan, but suffer from the Eikaiwa syndrome, where you are teaching English, living with English native speakers and have little money or time to afford lessons. My wife and I have come up with a solution. An Intermediate Japanese language learning program founded on real life experience. A course that would let you learn the <a title="Japanese Language Lessons" href="http://talksushi.com/japanese-language-lessons/">Japanese language</a> as if you were actually in Japan.</p>
<p>Most of my feedback has shown me that students didn’t want to focus on grammar or text books and just the basics of the language. Students wanted to be taught real Japanese that would help them with life in Japan. You won&#8217;t have to go through the basics again with our course. We dive straight into real Japanese and explain the culture of the Japanese language.</p>
<h2>Learn Japanese Fast With Speak Japanese Fluently</h2>
<p>In short our program <a href="http://speakjapanesefluently.com/">Speak Japanese Fluently</a>:</p>
<ul>
<li>Teaches functional Japanese that is real and alive in Japan</li>
<li>Gives You the confidence to speak Japanese to native speakers</li>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p></p><p>We are going to continue our study on Japanese grammar in this post with our third lesson on particles. We are going to take a look at the particle も.</p>
<p>The particle も can be used to indicate similarity as in the words &#8216;too&#8217; or &#8216;also&#8217;. This particle replaces が or は, when used:</p>
<p>A: 私がえいがすきです。<br />
B: 私もえいががすきです。<br />
A: I like movies<br />
B: I also like movies</p>
<p>This is a reasonably simple use of も, which can also be used in a double patternsuch as in the following sentence:</p>
<p>A: えいががすきですか、おんがくがすきですか。<br />
B: えいがもおんがくもすきです。<br />
A: Do [you] like movies, or do [you] like music?<br />
B: [I] like both movies and music.</p>
<p>Remember that because も marks a similarity to something previously mentioned, you cannot use も out of the blue. It requires a prompt either by someone else, or by something you yourself just said.</p>
<p>A second use of も is after the て form of verbs and verbal adjectives. In this use, も acts as an emphatic contrasting particle, meaning something like the English &#8220;even [by/if] &#8230;&#8221;. The phrase below</p>
<p>&#8220;Even [by] leaving now, [you] probably won&#8217;t make it.&#8221; translates to いま　いっても　まにあわない　でしょう。</p>
<p>There are two special things that concern this particle. One, a special case of this use of も is in combination with the copula です, which becomes でも. We will look at this in a later post.</p>
<p>The second is this particle can be used with question pronouns. Have a look at the examples below:</p>
<p>なに　means &#8220;what&#8221;, なにも means &#8220;anything&#8221; when followed by positive verb or &#8220;nothing&#8221;, when followed by a negative verb.</p>
<p>どこ means &#8220;where&#8221;, どこも means &#8220;anywhere&#8221; when followed by a postive verb or &#8220;nowhere&#8221;, when followed by a negative verb.</p>
<p>だれ　means &#8220;who&#8221;, だれも means &#8220;anyone&#8221; when followed by a postive verb or &#8220;no one&#8221;, when followed by a negative verb.</p>
<p>This rule continues for words like どんな (what kind of?), どっち (which way?), いつ (when?), どうして (why?) and so forth and so forth.</p>
<p>As you can see the simple use of particles can greatly change the context and meaning of the Japanese language. If you have ever taken the Japanese Language Proficiency Test (JLPT) before you will know one whole section of the grammar test is devoted to particles. Particles are important. So we will continue our study of them. Look forward to the next post on the particle の.</p>
