>> I would ask her something in Japanese, and I get the answer in English. So I reply to English and I get answer in Japanese. We are not trying to be funny or anything...it just happens without us thinking. Sometimes one sentence is a mix of Japanese and English. <<

My mom and I do that too. Tho, it's usually her speaking Japanese and me answering in English.

>>anyone know that if u wanna learn jap in uni do u have to at least have the basics of japanese language pat down or they will teach u the basics? as in hiragana, katakana and all those?<<

Depends on what school you go to and where it is. Do they even offer Japanese? If so, then yes, they will start with the absolute basics.

re: Jap being offensive
Didya guys hear about the road in some small town in Texas named "Jap Road?" The residents there fought to keep it, not because they were anti-Japanese, but because it was part of their town culture. The Japanese family that once lived on that road didn't mind it either. In the end, they got to keep the name. A small case of political correctness actually not winning.

In general, yes, it's an offensive term, but you can choose to be offended or not. As long as it's not meant to be derogatory, I don't really care. imo, people are way too sensitive to "words." Words themselves don't hurt, it's the intent behind them that does the damage.

eta: btw, up here in the North East US. When people say jap, they usually mean Jewish-American Prince/Princess

I love speaking Japanese (most of the time). It's strange but I think my voice gets a lot lower and more manly when I'm speaking Japanese. Also it's just a lot of fun to play around with how you speak and try to do different voices and such, but I generally do that in English too.
Still it's a shame there are hardly any Japanese speakers at my school. I can't wait to get back to Japan. (/sigh)

Why does man create? Is it man's purpose on Earth to bring form to thought, to prove meaning in experience? Or is it just something to do when he is bored?

Yes i love speaking Japanese.

ただいま日本語の勉強中です。
まだ子どもの本やふりがなの含む漫画しか読めない程度に上達していますので、
話しかける時は難しい漢字や俗語を使うのを遠慮していただけませんか。

I love to speak Japanese. However, I only speak it to my friends...mostly the ones who can talk back >_<

I like it more than english because of how beautiful it sounds. Thats what attracted me. It sounded gorgeous. Although Spanish is nicer sounding, I love Japanese.

woot

My Japanese language skills are only fair, but I love to speak it (if given the chance -___-; ) But if I speak japanese aloud everyone who knows me will think it's just weird.

So the only way I can speak Japanese without getting strange looks would be if I stayed with my host family in Japan XD

Yes, I love speaking it! I have a lot of friends who can speak it too and Japanese exchange students to talk with so it's fun (I'm an officer in the Japanese Friendship Club in my university). And my BF's Japanese so we speak to each other in Japanese most of the time. (When my Japanese ability was still pretty low we spoke in English all the time but now it's different XD ) His parents only speak Japanese too so I don't have a choice ^^;

Speaking of host families, the whole weekend I stayed with my Japanese host family was one of the most exhilarating experiences in my life! I was forced to speak Japanese ONLY for 48 hours! XD Something good came out of it though. After that, I was more comfortable speaking the language and spoke more Japanese! ;)
