Thank you for visiting my website. There are a few things you need to know before you have a look around.

If you see a white word that looks like this, wasabi, you can hover over it with your cursor to find a mini description and hopefully learn something that you may not have known.

But if you see an underlined word like this, Home, it indicates that it is a link to another page.

You will need Adobe Flash plug-in to view some of the interactive content. You can download it for free by clicking HERE.

If you see something like this, Japan - ( ni.ho.n), it is shows you the translation (Japan), then the way it is written in Japanese () and then how you pronounce it in English (ni.ho.n).

This website was designed for a screen resolution of 800 by 600 or higher. It has been made to be viewed in Internet Explorer 6&7, Firefox 2.0.0.3 (with one known issue on the geography page) or higher.

I have also made this website so that you don't need to install the Japanese language on your computer, to save you the time and the hassle.

I hope you enjoy this website, and hope you learn as much as I have from creating it. After you have had a look around, why not try the Practice Quiz to test your new knowledge?
