Don't walk before you can crawl...

Whoops! I was trying to be too clever with my website, but when I was doing my Japanese writing practise, I found out there was no such thing as 'fi' in Japanese... The closest is 'fu' and so Steph is 'sutefu', pronounced "sutef" as the 'u' is silent. But then, in Japan you get called by your second name, so I guess I'll be called 'pieru-san'...

Anyway... The moral of the story is, don't assume you're cleverer than you are when learning a language like Japanese.

Word for today is: 'hito', which means person.
