Only got as far as Hiragana meself. Katakana may as well be a foreign language!

# :( How can I learn Japanese?
(I helped save b3ta! Mu Dinofiddler, Sat 5 Jun 2010, 3:23, archived)
# Go to Japan
Or get a decent teacher who knows more than me. (and I'm pretty good.) Find an Aussie who knows all the grammar (Hah! there is very little) if all else fails, ask me for a job in Japan. I'll sort it out.

# Well the grammar is (what grammar)
but don't count on it being easy.

# after that it's just like in english, except they put an "and" in the middle after thirty.
So if you know the tens going up you can count all the way.

trienta y tres, cuarenta y quatro, cinquenta y cinco...

# I recall being told
that "shi" is the formally correct word for "4", only it's not widely used cos "shi" also means "death". So they generally say "yon" instead.

More than once, I wondered whether watashi-no-sensei was just making this shit up as she went along.
