[nabs-l] Learning Japanese

[Beth]

My friend Kristen Lunceford might be able to see something about 
the Japanese Braille because she has learned Japanese and teaches 
Japanese students English.  She has beeen a friend of mine since 
midle school, and I've watched her progress in Japan, and it's 
awesome.

I have also wanted to learn Japanese but, I have only learned 
very little
since I don't know how to go about making the characters or 
Japanese
Braille.

Perhaps we can come up with something together or maybe someone 
else has an
idea of what to do.

 What difference does it make to you.  Why can't people just 
answer the
 question that was asked -- or if they don't have an answer then 
don't
 respond.

Hi Lindsay.
If you don't mind me asking, why are you wanting to learn 
Japanese?
Thanks, Joshua

Hi All,

I am curious as to whether there is anyone on this list who has 
studied
Japanese. I am just beginning to learn the language, and am 
curious as to
how others have learned to efficiently produce Hiragana and Konji
characters. While I believe I have made some progress in 
determining how
to type Japanese using the language-specific input keyboard for 
Hiragana
characters, I still have a number of questions for those who are 
more
proficient in the language. Also, is anyone here familiar with 
the
Japanese Braille system, and if so, how often do you use it? Any
tips/thoughts would  be very much appreciated. i would be very 
interested
in connecting with other blind people who know Japanese. Thanks 
in advance
for any help!
Best,
Lindsay
