Japanese

I chose to study Japanese so that I can talk to my family who lives in Japan. Since both my parents are from Japan, almost my entire family speaks Japanese. At a younger age, I learned Japanese from my mother but as other activities and learning got in the way, I slowly forgot the language. When visiting my family in Japan, I found it difficult to hold conversations because of the language gap. I am excited to learn conversational Japanese and so far I have found it sometimes difficult to speak words. Sometimes I feel like my tongue is tied when speaking Japanese.
