Just wondering... If you couldn't understand what the title says, then don't bother replying :)

No, "Do you want to learn Japanese?" is what I think the thread title means.
Or "Would you like to learn Japanese?"

Ole wa chotto wakarimasu. Zenzen jouzu janai.

Ole wa, amerika-jin desu. Demo ole no rioshin we chugoku-jin desu. Dakara ole chugoku-go wa hanashimasu.

I am grasping the reigns of the universe's carriage, and every morning get up and shout "Giddy up, boy!" You may never grasp the complexities of what I do, but at least have the courtesy to feign something other than slack-jawed oblivion in my presence. I, sir, am a wizard, and I break more natural laws before breakfast than of which you are even aware!

I don't think so...
"Dare wa koko de nihongo o hanashimasu ka?"
dare = who.
wa = particle indicating what is the subject.
koko = here.
de = particle indicating where, with what.
nihongo = Japanese language.
o = particle indicating subject of the verb.
hanashimasu = speak present or future tense.
ka = makes the sentence a question.

Nah, that's not what the title means.
Ole wa, amerika-jin desu.
Ole? That's an unusual romanization.

We must now go assimilate some peeeple.

I only know very basic things from my ex-gf (fluent) and from taking Aikido. I understood you were asking a question about the Japanese language, but that was about it.

If you're male (Which I am judging you are, based on your handle), boku is more commonly used instead of watashi.

Both could be used, but boku is used by males. When I was in Japanese class, we all usually said watashi. Females can say atashi.

Out of curiosity, does anyone know of any Romanji-English free translators? I could really have fun with one of those...

Thanks. I'm a first year student, and in the class watashi is used so it's what I'm used to. :)
