「ハウルの動く城」

During my first year of taking Japanese, a group of friends of mine were getting together to watch a movie, Howl’s Moving Castle to be exact. Since I had never seen the movie before, they asked me to watch it too、and I agreed. I thought it was just going to be in English, because we live in the US, but it turned out we were going to watch the Japanese version. I was worried that I wasn’t going to be able to understand anything (without subtitles), but it turned out I had learned enough to understand everything, even without subtitles. It was the first time that I managed to use Japanese outside of class, and it really motivated me to continue doing my best.

日本語(にほんご)の一年生(いちねんせい)の時(とき)、友達(ともだち)たちはハウル(はうる)の動(うご)く城(しろ)という映画(えいが)を見(み)たいでした。あの映画(えいが)は見(み)たことがありませんから、見(み)たいと聞(き)きました。アメリカに住んでいるから、映画は英語と思いましたけど、映画は日本人の映画でした。私はとても心配していました、映画をわからないですけど、たくさんわかりました。あの時はまず授業の外で日本語を使いまして、とてもうれしいですから、もっと日本語を取っています。
