[Tomii515]

Hmm...well, I think I should try to learn something new, so, I think the next best thing I should learn is informal verbs! O.O!!!

well, I know informal normal verb...like "hanasu" blah blah...

but what about informal past, -ing past, -ing, and all that good stuff...like, can someone give me a GOOD site, or take the time to type it please?

If you do type it, tell how to make each kind of verb past...and yeah, you knwo the whole deal!

Ohhh, and the informal desu, and deshita and stuffs!

thanks very much!

Textbooks are nice. Or, alternately, textbooks can be very good resources. Some people, on the other hand, swear by the efficacy of textbooks. Another option to consider would be textbooks.

Maybe try looking in your library for a better one? Unless your library is doinky or something, they'll probably have quite a few Japanese textbooks available to borrow. There are also many people selling used textbooks cheap on amazon.
