Resources while Studying with the RTK1 - Louie1988 - 2012-08-05
Hey everyone, I am just wondering should I be learning any forms of speech or any grammer at all while studying the Kanji? I get the whole concept of linking the Kanji to English elements I grew up knowing and I love the results I am getting with the memorization of the Kanji. I am just wondering should I be practicing speech at all and learning the basics of speaking the Language...or should I just wait until I have finished the Kanji and then proceed....Or should I go in another direction completely....any help or idea's/ thoughts would be great ...also open to suggestions to learning materials that will help me with speech either now or post my Kanji studies.
ありがと、ありがと、ルイ =)

You can start learning Japanese now if you want. I liked the genki series of textbooks when I was starting out and recommend them to everyone.
You can get it here

Thank you to the both of you, I have heard good things about both programs ...I think I am going to go with assimil first then after that use the Genki series as a refresher then move on to the second assimil japanese book...thank you both again.

I use Genki and I make a deck based on example sentences from Genki. This way, I combine the studying of grammar and repeating of what I've learnt while using the Genki books.
I tried Core, but found it incredibly boring compared to what I do now. It seems to make SRSing a chore rather than a tool to remember the stuff I learn...
I'd assume that the Core decks would be more useful along with the iKnow site though...
