    Some Japanese phrases.

    I would like to understand Japanese and Chinese. I'm into Japanese and Hong Kong cinema but there are many of those films that seem interesting but do not have English translation...

    If I become rich one day I will hire some guys to translate movies for me.

    Many Jap/chinese/korean movies and anime etc are quite entertaining to watch. I often found the korean films showing on the Korean/Asian channel fun to watch though I have to totally rely on the subtitles which sucks. I love those Korean tech thrillers, some cool stories and action etc.... I heard many people learn language from subtitles alone when exposed at a very young age..wasn't really sure if this was true though..I think it probably is true since kids can learn language from tv alone WITHOUT any subtitles whatsover, very easy for a very young kid to pick up language that way especially between the ages of 1-6 I believe.
