@japaneselanguage I like how Japanese is simply structured. Especially as a programmer, I have been able to pick up Japanese due to how sentences are structure (mastodon.social)

Everything can be broken into blocks which is really nice. This is what programming languages do, so this feels very natural to me.

My native language is English, but I am thinking of moving to Japan.

Oh yes, I completely agree with you! I was saying this exact thing to my sensei some time ago and she couldn't understand what I mean, despite knowing a few foreign languages herself, Japanese is her native language so she couldn't judge it from the perspective of someone learning it as a foreign language. But I also like how everything is well-structured and it's also not full of exceptions. My husband only started learning a few months ago but he also agrees!
