| Topic | Anyone move to Japan from the US? (As someone who originated from US) |
| ssjevot 09/16/19 7:30:36 PM #35: | I moved to Japan from the US for work (I work as a research professor). I already knew Japanese before I went. It's considered the hardest language to learn for Native English speakers for a reason. It's extremely difficult and even know I make mistakes (studied for around 10 years on and off before coming here, mainly through playing games in Japanese, and have lived in Japan for 2 years). In general I don't think moving to Japan is a good idea for most people. Academic research is just kind of in a shit position in the US right now for a number of reasons. Oh and I never took classes and think they are a massive waste of time and money. I knew lots of people who got degrees in Japanese at University of Washington when I worked there. None of them could speak Japanese worth shit (or read it). It was like Japanese people's English (they study for years and yet most can't even form a simple sentence). --- Favorite Games: BlazBlue: Central Fiction, Street Fighter III: Third Strike, Bayonetta, Bloodborne thats a username you habe - chuckyhacksss ...
