Comment on How realistic is it for me to learn Japanese so that I can experience Anime better? How long would it take to learn? Has anyone attempted this?

  Ils mangent - intelligent

  Same four letters at the end, not the same pronunciation.

      … French is at least consistent in what is pronounced and what is not. …
