Forget about your japanese, how is your english good !! 😂 I assume your native language is Portuguese so how did you acquire english as a language? and which would you say you are better at , english or japanese ? I am in a similar situation where I am busy with work and cant really spend most of my time in immersion, before my job I spent two years in full immersion and learned kanji as well, but I still dont think I can hold a conversation or form well sentences. My native is Arabic, so I learned English and now I am learning Japanese.
Thanks :). Yes, Portuguese. Well, if I'm better at English or Japanese, I'd say it depends. I've been learning English since 10 but I've never lived in any country where English is the main language and here in Japan most people I speak English with are not native speakers either, but I've been living in Japan for over 10 years, and that makes a huge difference. So some days I feel my English is better and some days my Japanese, 🤣, but I can understand and get myself understood in both languages, I think. I think it's totally normal to not be able to hold conversations even after 2 years of immersion, especially if you are busy and cannot spend hours every day developing that skill. I myself knew Japanese very well after 2 years, but I couldn't speak well. I think I started to feel confident in speaking from the 4th year (and yes, after I passed JLPT N1 even) . Good luck to both of us :)
I’ve just started learning Japanese and am grateful for this video!
