Welcome!
This forum is for users of Denshi Jisho to help each other with the Japanese language. Since the dictionary can only answer questions on vocabulary, and occationally the odd grammar pattern, I thought that this would be a good addition to the site.
My hope is for all the users to help each other out. Currently, as of January 2008, Denshi Jisho has between 2000 to 3000 unique visitors per day, and I'm sure that this includes speakers of all levels of Japanese. So the likelihood of someone knowing the answer to your question is hopefully high.
I also want this to be a place where the users of Denshi Jisho can get to know each other and socialize.

Hi,
Where do we post suggestions for the website. I have a relatively simple suggestion that I think would increase the functionality of the website. For words that are listed as "Usually written using kana alone" it would be nice if the sentences link used the hiragana writing of the word instead of the kanji writing, which will usually get no results. -
Oh, another thing that I forgot that might be helpful: It'd be nice if the input of the Japanese and English text fields didn't disappear when you changed tabs between words and sentences. For example, sometimes I'll search for a word in English in the words tab, but then I'll also want to find sentences with that English word. When I switch to the sentences tab, though, I have to retype the word. Not a big deal, just might be nice to have that extra functionality.

I have noted it is difficult to find a decent J-E / E-J engineering dictionary for technical terms for the power industry. I am very surprised and pleased to have stumbled across this site that actually contains quite a lot of power plant specific translation.
Wanted to say thanks a million!

Nice to meet you.
I'm native Japanese, and live in Osaka(do you know?). I've studied as hard as you,not Japanese,but English. Though my skill and knowledge of English may be as much as that of an elementary school kids in USA, I hope your help and wish we would help each other with the foreign language. Thank you. -

Learning kanji takes months of effort, years depending on what you mean by "learning kanji". It's not something someone can teach you over e-mail. -
lrnj.com is all you need to learn the kanji.
It's an RPG style game which teaches you Japanese.
For $20 it teaches you the kana, kanji, readings, vocab and more.
There's a free trial version available too.
Much better than that overpriced, overrated Heisig book. -
The game does have an SRS mechanism.
I successfully learned the 1945 jouyou kanji (keywords only) with this game alone.
If you try and rush it (like I did) the reviews are evil!
And I don't quite understand the statement "there's no way a game can have a proper SRS mechanism".
Care to elaborate? -

Because of how irregular gaming can become. You generally won't sit down systematically with a game, and a game generally won't have equal pressure all over (because that would make it a bad game), which means that sometimes you will play a lot and thus go way past your reviews, while other times you won't play enough to even deal with your reviews. With an actual SRS software like Anki, you review exactly what you should each day since it's always indicated and you add what you want at the pace you decide. That's what makes it effective.
I've actually played the game myself and it felt way more that rote memorization than anything else and it was definitely not effective for long term retention. -
Ah I see, it's the time management system you feel is lacking in SFA. That's fair, the games far from perfect, but it does repeat wrong answers at spaced intervals. Hence spaced repetition. To be honest though, if I could do it all other again I would have just combined the Core 2000 sentences and Tae Kim's grammar guide with EDICT and learnt all the kanji in context...

Guess what,
I usually clean my shithole with Japanese people's faces!
Since toilet papers are so expensive nowadays, I utilize Japanese people's faces to clean my shithole.
After cleaning my shithole, I flush them in the toilet bowl.
So far, I flushed 2,350 Japaneses in the toilet bowl. -

Watashi wa nellie desu! :)
Our instructor told us that we should use jisho as our dictionary. It is unabridged and easy to access. that's why when I searched on the net the word jisho, I saw this site and visit it immediately. I find it good. Many are also enthusiast on learning Japanese. I also want to share some article to you from http://tinyurl.com/ucanspeakjapanese I find it very good and I could recommend this to everyone that are willing to learn. :) -
Hi, If you are going to learn any language you should know about the economy, culture and other activity of that country. Japan is world third largest economy in the world and there have lot of job and business opportunities. So I think Japanese is best option that you can learn which will help you in career and business prospect. Most important factor is japan had very strong economical country and they have lot of job opportunities.
The best way is online web based training by native person where you can use whenever you want to learn. This is the best forum that have ever seen to learn Japanese, here one can learn this language in a very interactive way and I don't make us feel bored. Its a fun to learn this language from here. Otherwise for me its gonna be quite difficult.
Howdy, Stranger!
