| I've had these issues. I will be in a conversation, and listening to the person, and it'll be fine, but then all of a sudden what the person says will make no sense, and when I repeat it back the other person is like, WTF?

| Japanese for about 5 years, using a primarily input-based system. Consequently, I can understand far more verbally than I can speak. Basically, I use the recommendations at Antimoon and AJATT primarily, though I have been trying to increase my output recently. Because of social shyness, and the fact... |
