        <div class="chapter_name">Your Future with Japanese</div>
        <div class="blurb">You&rsquo;ve come a long way in your study of Japanese.  Just a few months ago, you had little or no
        knowledge of the language, and now you can confidently create complex
        sentences.  Best of all, you have a solid
        understanding of basic grammar, which means you can use a dictionary to look up
        words you don&rsquo;t know, and then correctly use them in your speech.</div>
        <div><img src="divider@2x.png" class="divider" /></div>

<p class="bodycopy">However, you still have much to learn.  Although you have an introductory knowledge
        of all the main particles, you need to hear them in use a lot in order to
        really grasp their many uses intuitively. 
        You need to be puzzled at hearing Japanese people use what seem to be
        odd constructions, because after you figure out what&rsquo;s going on, you&rsquo;ll be that
        much stronger linguistically. </p>

<p class="bodycopy">Sometimes people write to ask me if they&rsquo;ll know the whole
        language after using Human Japanese. While I think this is a great text, I can
        confidently answer no to that question. See, if there&rsquo;s one thing you&rsquo;ll learn
        while studying a language, it&rsquo;s how big a subject it is. Even adults who have
        spoken their own native language for decades still encounter words or turns of
        phrase that they are unfamiliar with from time to time. So it is simply not
        possible to &ldquo;learn the whole language&rdquo; in a few months or even years.</p>

<p class="bodycopy">Learning a language is not a task but a journey, one that is challenging 
but richly rewarding, one that allows you to think in new ways and to see your own language differently.</p>

<p class="bodycopy">What I hope you have gotten out of this text is a solid
        
understanding of the foundation on which Japanese is built. You have a secure
        
base from which you can branch out as you learn more. I think you&rsquo;ll be able to
        
straightforwardly relate the things you learn in the future to the things
        
you&rsquo;ve learned in this text, and I&rsquo;m happy to have had the chance to lay this
        
foundation with you.</p>

<p class="bodycopy">To continue on, I recommend two things. First, find a
        
conversation partner if at all possible and start putting the stuff you&rsquo;ve
        
learned here to the test. Secondly, consider an intermediate  
textbook to learn more complex constructions. </p>
