Plugged in and ready to fall

I've once again resumed my efforts to learn Japanese. My synapses are getting lazy, and they need the exercise now more than ever. For the past few months I've been feeding my cerebellum a steady diet of junk food in the form of reality television, pop culture-fixated websites, and predictable four-camera sitcoms.



I think the simplicity of Japanese is what keeps me coming back to it. Unlike French or Spanish, there is no conjugation of the verbs depending upon the person and number, and no suffixes for nouns. As far as languages go, Japanese is about as concise and straight forward as it gets.

So, umm," これをしましょう," or whatever.
