I ended up being able to read Asahi Shinbu, Asahi newspaper, about six months later -- so a total of 11 months later -- and went from Japanese I to Japanese VI.
Am ajuns să pot citi Asahi Shinbu, ziarul Asahi, cam şase luni mai târziu -- aşadar, după unsprezece luni -- am trecut de la japoneza I la japoneza VI.
