Why I study Japanese:

I am half Japanese-American, and half German. I enjoy watching Japanese television shows, dramas, and anime. I also enjoy reading manga . One day, I would like to be able to study Japanese literature.

I think that the pitch accents in Japanese are very difficult. I would like to get better at reading kanji, as well as speaking in Japanese comfortably.
I also hope to study abroad in Japan sometime!
