"Why did I start learning Japanese?"

Why did you start learning "Japanese"? A question I was asked so many times by a lot of people. And always answer by: "it started when I was a child sitting in front of the T.V watching cartoon or animations. While watching one of these cartoons a strange caricature appears, I wondered, what's this strange drawing? So just like any small child wondering about something I called my mother over and I asked her about it then she said:" hmm, I think it's Chinese". As I grow older I started searching about these cartoons and that wired caricature. I discovered that wasn't Chinese but it was Japanese. After that I start to search more and more until I found the real version of these cartoons, and how it was made, as a result, I learned that, it was a comic book first called "manga" in Japanese terms then made in to cartoons "anime". After this discovery I started watching the original version of these cartoons and read the comic books. After short time I faced a problem, I had to wait for the episode to be aired and the volume to be published in the English translation for almost a month, Therefore, I started learning Japanese by myself, after a while, I found out that there was Japanese class held in Kuwait University so I register. During the time when I was learning Japanese I meet a lot of people that shear the same hobby and interest, all my life I thought I was the only one with those strange hobbies. Learning this language helped me to discover that I wanted to learn more than language; I want to know more about JAPAN. I wanted to learn more about the culture and history of JAPAN. Learning this language opened a new door for me and helped me to learn about a new culture and meet a new people from Japan and become friends with them. Because of that I've become active in my social life.

Why do I love to learn new language?

At first, I stared to learn language to understand and communicate with others. For me learning language it's a hobby, something i love to do. By doing that i learned a new way to understand and get in touch with others and discover  more about country's and culture and I found new way find information and meet new friends. learning a new language showed me  the Differences and Similarity between my country and others country's.  And that's why i love it so much.
