A few people have commented on the ko こ and て characters. I ure you they are correct in the video, and that is how some people write them. But we maybe could have chosen a more distinct font for newcomers. Sorry about that!

What is the easiest way to learn japanese?

April 7, 2008 by admin · 5 Comments 

i am trying to learn japanese since i am going (hopefully lol) in two years. i already know some vocab (phrases/honorifics)and some hirigana. isthere any tips you have for me? also is it completely nessesary to learn kanji or would i be ok if i dont really know any kanji? thanks =] =]

You need to take a course
Japanese is impossible to learn on your own
Its good you can read hiragana and have some vocab, its a good base. You will need to learn katakana, its not hard and its extremely helpful.
If you are intending to study it two years, learn basic Kanji. Some Kanji are really really easy, and you will see them all the time. I believe its something like the first 300 kanji represent 50% of the appearences of kanji, so learning the easy ones will help you ALOT. You will see tonnes of kanji in japan.
