A little while ago, I came up with the idea of having some sort of language meter so people/my family/friends will be able to tell how my Japanese is coming along. This is the meter I've decided on:
It's called the "Japaker", which is a portmanteau of "Japanese" and "tracker". There will be one at the end of most posts, but probably not so much while I'm still here in America. It looks like this:
Japaker
Speaking: 94% Can speak in everyday conversations, nothing too deep
Reading: 50% Hiragana/Katakana are going amazingly, Kanji... um...
Understanding: 1,000% :)
Get the general idea?
If I need to add or refine a category, I will, but as of now, this is as complicated as it gets. And now, the first official Japaker!!!
Japaker
Speaking: 3% I know a few phrases, I can piece together small sentences, my accent isn't bad.
Reading: 2% can read hiragana and some katakana, kanji is a bit beyond me at the present.
Understanding: 10% I can actually understand a little bit! Nothing too complicated, but if someone is speaking directly to me, I can figure it out 75% of the time.
