PS... Oops, I'm sorry... I'm waiting for the Genki books and will see how different they are? before I go on to learning Kanji in full.  I'd meant to mention it.

in one of my Japanese From Zero books for hiragana and katakana, they use "acchi" for "that one (over there)".  Is this OK or should I be saying kachira?
