Chapter 1.1: So...Rosetta Stone. Maybe some of you know it. It is a software for learning languages by using the immersion method. It means that there are no german translations, just japanese. The company suggests the success of the method by a similar behavior as learning in young children. So there are just pictures of different things and situations. It begins with intuitive clicking on the right images. Later it becomes a kind of combinatorial quiz. There are different levels of how intense you want to learn. I opted for the full-year curiculum. This means that a large part of learning success  is based  to the frequent repetition of the exercises.  The first contact with this software I got from a friend. He was so enthusiastic that he asked me to complete a lesson Turkish. He wanted to show me that I will record immediately a success. And so it was. The more I was amazed that it works at the Japanese. I'm still in the early stages. The...

If you got an Ipad...download this game!I never spend more time on a App-Game. Its about funny little fatty birds. They/you have to fight through rough terrain and try to survive until they are sucked into a tube to the next level. You start with a single plump little bird and can double this by collecting or more. For all the various situations the birds have a variety of items. The best thing about the game is the soundscapes. But let's surprise yourself. Have fun. Rating in category App-Games:  

Chapter 1.0: As the most of you already know I am trying to learn japanese. My goal for the next time is to pass the JLPT N5 test. A nice user from Interpals gave me a helpful feedback regarding to this blog and said to me, that she would like me to write about my japanese learning process. So I think this is a great idea for a new main content of my blog. Sooo... first of all I try to give an explanation about the reason for my decision to walk this hard way of learning a so difficult language. At the beginning there where the animes (of course - I think all people who try to learn japanese like animes and use them as a real helpful way to get some input). Later I bought my first Manga. I was so facinated by the fact of reading it from back to front. This was my personal first contact, that made me interested in japan, to such a different culture. So I begann to recherche about this country and its population. Later then coocking started to be an importend thing in my life - so...

I like to write about this because I am using WhatsApp for a very long time now. When I intalled it the first time on my phone (it was an old T-Mobile HTC) I was suprised how good it worked. I found a lot of my friends in the contact list, and those who don't where there I sent an invitation. So soon all my friend got WhatsApp. I got a better phone and got a internet surf flatrate so I never wrote a SMS again. Bacause of that I saved the money for the flatrate.  Then I found the Page Interpals on the Web and met a few people from japan. They invited me to add them on LINE. When I used it the first time I thought it is quite similar to WhatsApp (maybe it is...). BUT - there are those funny and VERY advantageous 'Stickers'. With the time I noticed that I can express nearly every emotion with them. I think that's one thing that I would like to emphasize. Especially while chatting there are missunderstandings inevitable. But this can be provided by using Emojis. What...

Beim täglichen durchstöbern des Netzes bin ich über ein nettes kleines Schätzchen der interaktiven Unterhaltung gestolpert. Die Seite nennt sich "InterPals". Die Seite soll dem Zweck des Brieffreundschaften-knüpfen dienen und ist mit ca. 2 Millionen Mitglieder rund um den Globus gut besucht. Von der Neugier gepackt habe ich mich sofort angemeldet und mir ein Profil mit einem netten Urlaubsfoto von mir eingerichtet. Kaum hatte ich auf Profil speichern geklickt bekam ich bereits die ersten Nachrichten. Anfangs war ich natürlich skeptisch was die denn nun von mir wollen würden. Ich war positiv überrascht als ich feststellen musste, dass ich völlig seriöse anfragen zu einer Brieffreundschaft bekam. Höflich wie ich bin schrieb ich natürlich zurück und stellte mich ebenfalls kurz vor. Zack - eine Nachricht nach Brasilien ein andere nach Kamerun, wieder eine andere nach Thailand. Spaß bereitete mir auf anhieb der Gedanke mit Leuten in weit entfernten Ländern ein wenig zu schwatzen....
