It depends on how much time and money you are willing to spend.  If you have limited time and money, you might try some of the internet sites that offer free Japanese lessons.\nIf you have a little money and limited time, you can sign up for internet language courses available.  (Check google).\nIf you have a lot of time and money, go to Japan and enroll in a Japanese language program for a year or two.

Well, I lived in Japan for two years, and I learned Japanese language at a respected Japanese university, but in fact I found that practicing Japanese language with normal Japanese people in daily life situations is more helpful than language course it self.\nSo, if you are going to stay for one year in Japan, it is good to take the language course and try to make Japanese friends so you can practice it.\nBeside the university; I tried the following school and they have good programs for teaching Japanese language to the foreigners:\nTrident language school: http://www.kawai-juku.ac.jp/j-lang/english/index.html \ngood luck

Guide or teacher it is best to have the help of a person who has gone before.  To start you should learn hiragana as you can write everything in it.  But, you should not neglect katakana.  And, you should start in using kanji as soon as you've hiragana down.  Japanese is a mix of all three.  While you are learning hiragana you can learn to pronounce Japanese.  That part is very simple. To learn by yourself you will need some books on grammar.  I think grasping the grammar and learning to read and write kanji are what makes Japanese seem difficult.  Kanji just takes time. You can learn about 100 a year.  You just write them CORRECTLY over and over.  and it gets easier and begins to make sense.  When you write them also you learn the pronunciations (the Chinese and Japanese readings called onyomi and kunyomi.)  Japanese syntax is SubjectObjectVerb.and is aided by postpositionals called particles or joshi in Japanese.  A good book on grammar should have ample examples of this.  And, the other difficulty is verbs and their conjugations.  Learning hiragana will help you with this, you will see.  Just realise that you are going to have to put some time in to learn it.\nI found that teachers can help with the kinds of things that we learn in school.  Reading and writing kanji would be one of the things that I found classes helpful with.  But, it was a college class on Japanese overall.   And, also friends in particular native speakers will inform you of your shortcommings.  They are teachers.\nI taught Japanese in college here and basically you need to know hiragana.  Katakana is used like we use italics for foreign words and for emphasis.  It is the same syllables as hiragana over again. Learn hiragana first.\nI basically taught Japanese grammar as I thought that the most important  to learn and yes there are various levels of politeness but you only need to learn one to start and the verbs and endings that go along with that.  You will learn the others almost automatically.  As Japanese is frought with polite expressions.\nI repeat  you need to learn the postpositionals (particles) and the verb conjugations... knowing hiragana will help you with this.

Your local Barnes and Nobles or Borders should carry some Japanese dictionary resources, and Amazon.com can deliver the fantastic ones that the stores might not carry.\n\nI know tha Kodansha's Dictionary is a great buy- it's a very good buy out of all the cruddy ones.  Just look around!\n\nIn the meantime, this is a pretty darn good dictionary site online:\n\nhttp://www.freedict.com/onldict/jap.html\n\nGanbatte!

Hmmm... What do you mean by fast? Is 4 years fast? This is how much it got me to actually say I can use my Japanese... I think all the languages you would like to learn take at least 2 or 3 years. For Japanese, there are plenty of good sites on the internet. You could use them. I dont know any courses, though. Don't worry for your spelling. It's perfectly understandable. Good luck with the others!

move to japan.  if that doesn't work find some other way to immerse yourself in the language.  if all you hear and are able to communicate is in Japanese you will learn faster

I would suggest a class. Learning the pronunciations and the symbols are difficult alone. With a tutor you can learn the katakana and kanji symbols the correct way because there is a process of writing symbols that needs to be done. Also repitition is also a good thing to do when learning Japanese.

http://www.manythings.org/japanese/links/ has almost every good resource link for learning and practicing Japanese.\n\nYou can also buy books. I know Kodansha is a good company.\nhttp://www.sasugabooks.com/ has books you can buy (in Japanese but also instructional books for learning it). I found them to be fairly speedy deliverers when they have the books in stock and don't have to order from Japan.

You had best just buy a japanese-english dictionary.\n\nThey have a schedule in front of how to pronounce the different kana and they also give you references on how to look for a word if you don't know how to pronounce the kanji.\n\nOh, additional: try to get the programme Twinbridge, it's like Word for english and japanese.

I'm Japanese and I think the best way to learn the language is from a good teacher. But, if  you are going to learn it yourself, I think you might want to start with learning the hiragana, which are the basic 50 Japanese alphabets. However, if you prefer to be more into the talking rather than writing and reading, I would recommend listening to Japanese CDs, whether it be music, books, or anything where you can here the words, so you'll get used to listening, which probably makes it easier to talk. (This is how I learned English few years ago)\n\nI really think it's great that more people are willing to learn Japanese today, which is only spoken in Japan, unlike French and Spanish that are spoken and official in several countries!!\nIf you have any questions on the culture or anything, it probably would be the best if you answer here. There are probably other people willing to share their information about our culture with you, and there are people who might have the same questions you do. \n\nがんばってね！(ganbattene=good luck!)
