Looking to learn Japanese(日本語)
I've been pertty good at finding kana sysmbols, stroke order, and pronucation. I can't seem to find any vocabulary sites that are not travel Japanese.
Kanji is even harder to find printable stroke order pages. Yes I know there are quicktime movies that show how but that ain't very good away from the computer.
For video theres decent amount on tv.
So in short. Is there someone that can help me with 日本語?

Re: Looking to learn Japanese(日本語)
If you're looking for practice pages with stroke order diagrams, you might be able to find them in the educational sections of Chinese and Japanese bookstores. As you wrote, I don't recall having seen these on-line.
For non-travel vocabulary, there are also a number of sites listing Japanese terms and phrases used in animé. For example, see Reiko-chan's Japanese for Anime Lovers There's also the NHK World Japanese Lessons web site, but I don't know if those are travel-focused.
There also used to be a fantastic site with a pretty comprehensive list of Japanese particles (including many uncommon ones). Sadly, I didn't bookmark it and have been unable to find it for several months.

Re: Looking to learn Japanese(日本語)
From the sound of it all, learning Japanese online is like climing mt Fuji in a t-shirt and shorts.

Now I know why i'm not too fond of romaji its just like english. Confusing and hard to read. Thats why I just stick to reading アメリカ語(American).

My dictionary says アメリカ英語 (or the old 米語).

Re: Looking to learn Japanese(日本語)
with アメリカ語 I was trying to seperate brittish english from american english because who can understand the brittish?
Hiroshi66 - Well, there's always "Teach Yourself: Beginner's Japanese" or "Teach Yourself: Japanese". I reccommend speaking before writing. got that one checked out.
Is there a kana vocab book(s) that you can list?

I think I found it! I believe this was the site explaining many Japanese particles that I remembered.
