Yeah, I know, but it's only now that I've realised that my anime-isms are starting to reflect themselves in what words I don't use. あんた is one... 僕 is another. With all the bishoujo anime I watch too many girls refer to themselves as boku, and unfortuantely that's the image I attach to boku. いやぁ、もっと気お付けないと...

あんた is the informal contraction form thingy of あなた. Saying "あんた" to someone you don't know would be a bit over-familiar.

Girls saying "boku" sounds weird, but I know nothing of anime, maybe there's some reason for it?

My husband would never say anything like that, because I keep him under control.

I've never heard of someone refer to themselves as uchi... is it common? Or maybe I have but not understood it in context...?

Wife uses 'uchi' a lot when she is speaking her dialect with friends from back home.

ジャジャーン! ばかの質問を持って戻ってきた!

まぁ...三ヶ月間くらい東京に住んでいたけど、俺の日本語はそんなにうまくに行かない感じだ。 毎日漢字を勉強したり、日本のテレビ聞いたり、電気辞書を使いながら本とマンガを読んだり、ときどき日本の友達と出かけたりけれど...足りない感じをする。

俺のレベルは日本語能力試験3級と2級の真中だ。。。たぶん。 勉強のはいいだけど日本語をあまり使わなかったらもちろん使い方はいつもだめだろうな?

そしていい日本語を使い方方法知ってるのか?日本語日記始めると思ったけどほかのアイデアがあるだろう?

お前らさ、こんな日本語のレベルの時に何をしたのか?
