I've been trying to find one of these for years. I love the wikipedia examples where they have a sentence, a word-by-word gloss, and an English translation. Like this:
太陽が|東の|空に|昇る。 taiyō ga | higashi no | sora ni | noboru sun SUBJECT | east POSSESSIVE | sky LOCATIVE | rise The sun rises in the eastern sky.
Do any of you know of a website that has a lot of these for Japanese? It's so much faster to pick up words and grammar when it's laid out like this. If it has a bunch of short stories it would be even better. And if there's one that has multiple languages on it.
