Self Study on Japanese #1

August 12, 2017

Back then when I was 11, I studied so hard on Japanese but it's either I was too dumb I couldn't remember any vocabulary other then か(ka) and あ(a). Instead of memorizing the words I decided to skip and jump into sentences. I have practice book given by my uncle but maybe it wasn't my beginner level that's why I kept forcing myself to read though it was wrong!

Why didn't I go for Japanese classes? I was learning purely out of curiosity, my parents would kill me because it wasn't cheap at all. I do not watch anime nor anything related to Japanese but their lifestyle. I do question myself a lot why did I even bother to learn sometimes. Korean language wasn't hard as I can speak and write now, but the only problem is I have no one to communicate with that's why its dropping so bad. Yes I self study Korean too, I'm guessing it's going to happen the same thing when I can finally understand Japanese.

The reason why I wanted to share my learning progress is because I have no directions on learning Japanese except if I pay, duhh. I did some research and learn it free from some youtube videos. And do trust me, do not buy any Japanese book from the bookstore unless you just learn it just because you're going to Japan for a holiday. It never gets any deeper on detail.

Although I have studied so hard I never knew the existence of Hiragana, Katakana and Kanji. Japanese words have no ending, one vocabulary consists of few pronunciation. That is what confusing me. But I still managed to complete Hiragana, my mission for now is to memories it before entering katakana. Where did I learn Hiragana? Click Here

PS, for the longest time I had taken to study Hiragana...I thought it was over but I was wrong, there were more. I'm hoping Katakana and Kanji will not be that hard.

I will be updating about my learning process 3 days apart. Wish me luck!
