New Editor

Hello everyone! I'm the new editor, David =). My handlename/username is Kiydon, so it's preferable if you address me by that.

I'm a high school student going into my senior year, with somehow quite a bit of free time on his hands. Chinese is my mother language, but I've been speaking English for 8 years now. I'm also semi-fluent in Japanese and Spanish.

I hope to get along with everyone here! I'm currently editing SPS and Eden in reverse chronological order, going over the latest chapters first, in addition to the newer chapters. Once I'm done with all three volumes of each, I'll be going through Onii-Ai.

Thanks!

  4. Four languages in senior high, that is impressive. Any tips for us trying to gain a few more languages? Fluent in both English and Spanish for work reasons I'm aiming for Chinese,Japanese and Korean, first year in university so any study tips will help. Other then that I'm happy we got a new person here so the site won't die off, I just hope I finish my study in languages to try and join the team to.

    1. Thanks! Well, what I do is mostly just memorization and general familiarization. Just try to watch television in the language you're studying, and try to friend native speakers of that language. Otherwise, use flashcards for studying vocabulary, even if you don't usually use them otherwise. Don't neglect listening, though...I neglected listening for Japanese until later, and it was so hard trying to follow a native speaker; still can't fully comprehend everything said at full speed.
      For the three languages you mentioned, if you haven't started yet, I would really start off with Chinese, as it caters to a larger population of people. Also, the syllable system is the hardest part of the language, as its grammar is really easy. Then move onto Japanese and then Korean. I do not recommend trying to learn both Japanese and Chinese at the same time though, will just confuse the heck out of you unless you're willing to dedicate a large portion of your time to studying.
      Good luck, and most of all have fun! =)

    2. Thanks for the reply and I see your point, that clears the order problem, I knew Chinese would come first but I didn't know what to make of Korean and Japanese later on. Like everything else its time and good study skills so I just hope I get the hang of it 3-4 years when I finish the first part of my career study.
