Hi!

I would have one question: Is there a reliable (and I hope quick) way for finding out the reading of Japanese names?

Kiba Takao IMO.

It is -- found him in the meantime ;)

I think that there is no rules to guess Japanese names but remembering them :D.

yeah :D

Buying a Japanese name book is a good idea

maybe I should include that in my next amazon.co.jp-order

 

but I think staying in Japan for more few years
is not so bad as well.

First graduation and then thinking about that

Right now I can't afford it *surprise* ;)

For me, as of now, I can read mostly correctly Japanese names.
But not location names in Okinawa or Hokkaido.

Well, at least with the history of Okinawa that doesn't surprise me.

Thx for the answer
