Hi there!

Can someone write me a small text please? For practising...
So with a low level, something like this:
"Kei went for a walk in the park (or forest). He saw lots of trees and a blue bird. The bird sang. Kei liked the bird. It sang a beautiful song."

It doesn't have to be long, 10 sentences is great. In english and romaji.

I can't seem to find any easy texts to translate on the web, only seperate sentences. It's nice to try and decipher something that's in a context.

I'd be grateful, thanx!

How about doing some online lessons like at http://japanese.about.com/ or http://www.japanese-online.com/ ?

(I just found those last two sites after a short Google search, never seen them before, but they have links to lessons down the left side of the page.)

Basically it's a lot harder to write Japanese which is both Easy and Natural than you might think.

Hey Guys, thanks for the comments. I hadn't seen that second link yet.
It's always a dialogue though, what they use in those lessons. Always Q & A, never a short story.

I know it's hard, that's why I asked :-)
At least I'm not asking for characters, but for romaji.
