thanks for teaching and i learned too much japanese :)

Guido さん、

thank you for letting us know about the wrong audio for "shounen".

We'll fix it as soon as possible! :smile:

As to 私が日本ごを習います。 , yes, you're right and that's very correct!

However, in many situations, we'd probably use the topic marker は over が and say:

私は日本ごを習います。

You can also use the verb 勉強します (benkyou shimasu) and say:

私は日本ごを勉強します。

Creating simple sentences are good, and I think you're doing just great:wink:

If you're like to know how exactly you can say "I'm studying Japanese", it's

私は日本ごを習っています。

OR

私は日本ごを勉強しています。

:wink:

こんばんは。

I was categorizing the words in my Word Bank and I noticed a thing:

In this lesson seem that the voice file attached to "しょうねん" for the normal speed pronunciation isn't correct as

it states "otoko no ko" instead of "shounen".

However, since I am here I have a question too:

If I say:

私が日本ごを習います。

(Watashi ga Nihongo o naraimasu)

I am saying "I learn Japanese", right?

Obviously to say "I am studying" would be more correct, but I am experimenting a bit with very simple phrases and composite verbs with する still "scare" me! (:sweat_smile:)... so I was wondering if this could work as well... :-/

どうもありがとうございます。

Guido

Oh, same thing with regards to MANABU and NARAU. The audio and text do not match.

こんにちは　日本語ポード１０１、

Regarding 男の子 and 少年... the audio in the lesson states otokonoko but all the written notes indicate shounen. Nice to learn an extra synonomous word but it was a bit confusing to figure out.

よろしくおねがいします、

ティト

Under the grammar points in the PDF file, the romanization sentence has the topic marker as ha instead of wa.
