Let's learn how to say "My name is" in Japanese.

That's pretty easy, but first you better learn how to read Kana. It's cool to memorize Kanji but you won't be able to read anything in Japanese unless you learn katakana and hiragana.

So, for me today it was not only learning how to read but how to write as well. Moreover i had to translate my name Axek to Kana and i guess the correct translation is あくせく (Akuseku). It might be wrong but i done my best. I don't trust Google translate but the fun fact is that it translates my name from Japanese as "ambition" and あくせくです (Akusekudesu) as "it's amazing". Apparently, this has nothing to do with correct translation but i definitely like it.

Okay, Karelian for "My name is" is "Minun nimi on ___". But Japanese is way more complicated and pronounced like "Watashi no namae wa ______ desu. I suppose that is the reason for English to be the most popular language in the World.

Honestly, my real name is Alex, but there's no 'L' letter in Japanese at all. It would be アレックス written in Kana and 'Arekkusu' written in Romaji.
