About
Hi, I am Nick Lancaster, the author of Japanese Words. I love Japan and the Japanese culture and have been studying Japanese for almost 10 years now. However, I still consider myself a student of Japanese and probably always will. My studies originally started as a student in the US, and then expanded as a study abroad student in Tokyo. I then returned to Japan to work in Tokyo for a University and now live as a blogger/entrepreneur on the small sup-tropical island of Miyakojima.
I have made many mistakes during my studies of Japanese. These mistakes have helped me become a much better language learner. Most people hold the idea that they must spend several years to gain fluency in a language. However, if done properly and with hard study, a level of fluency can be reached in several months. I started Japanese Words to help provide the information that will help Japanese learners get to that level.
