I'm Japanese (I was born in the US though), yet I can barely write or speak the language. I can kind of understand it, mostly when my parents or a relative speaks to me in Japanese. Anyone else who talks to me in Japanese, I can only pick up one or two words. Whenever I speak Japanese, it always ends up sounding too American.
Ok, this is gonna sound really bad, but I actually when to this Japanese school on saturdays a long time ago (for about 10 years IIRC), and by the time I quit going there, I still couldn't get any of it. My sisters were able to successfully learn the language, but I can't. Hiragana I can read and write fairly decently, Katakana I can read ok but barely manage to write, kanjis are a whole different story. I can barely write my own name's kanjis.
Jam it back in, in the dark.
