日本語できた – By Indranil Chatterjee

If you talk to a man in a language, he understands that goes to his head, But if you talk to him in his own language it goes to his heart.

-By Nelson Mandela

Language learning has always been an integral part of my life since high school. Where I come from is a country of festivals, food, language and culture, so these things have always inspired me since I was a small kid. That’s why language learning has been an important yet a fun part of my life.

The Japanese language has always fascinated me. Maybe it has a lot of alphabets, scripts or the way of speaking makes you more eager and curious.
I am a huge fan of anime, manga like Shin chan, Doraemon etc., so the main attraction for this language came from this, but it got wings when I played the famous card game called YU-GI-OH, then what else? I decided in a heartbeat and signed up for the course.

In the month of January I came through an ad for learning Japanese, attended its demo class and quickly joined the beautiful journey of learning Japanese language through Eiwa Language School, Director- Khushboo Agarwal. And it has been a wonderful journey so far. Every week at 6.00pm in the evening fascination, excitement and astonishment knocks on my door for a wild journey into the arms of the LAND OF THE RISING SUN.

The most beautiful flower is the Rose, yet it also has got thorns with it, same is with language learning. In the beginning it took a little time to adjust to the language but once I got accustomed it became a lot easier.
3 months have passed since my quest for learning Japanese, faced a lot of challenges, hard work but remained determined towards constant learning and practices to get results.

 The reading has become polished a lot better in these 3 months and also got swift in understanding and interpretation, and I learned a lot about the country and its culture. Now with a little handy grammar sentence construction has also become polished.

So far I have left no stone unturned in this quest of learning Japanese, in my words I cannot describe the feelings when I see something in Japanese and can read it also understanding the meaning along with it
Also I met some Japanese friends online and converse with them and getting to know them is the best part as I can write as well as speak their language. I definitely feel positive and strong from learning Japanese and hope that someday I can also share my experience and knowledge to someone needing it.
