How about these ideas just for starters?

Borrowing back from the Japanese – There are literally thousands of Japanese loan words, borrowed from English and other languages. Use them to expand your vocabulary with words you already know.

Masters of miniaturisation – Many things in Japan start out big and get small, words and phrases are no different! Knowing what you can shorten, and sometimes leave out, will increase your speed and vocabulary.

Soup it up with spare parts – “Would you pass me the thingamyjig”, “The what?” “It’s a word you use when you don’t know the right one!”. There are lots of things you don’t know, but that shouldn’t slow you down. Hack your vocabulary with this ura-waza.

These are just a few of the secrets that I’ve learned over the years to become fluent in Japanese. I don’t want to give them all away on the class page, the lessons are free anyway, so register now and put these ideas into practice.
