THIS IS ABSOLUTELY the best way to get Hiragana and Katakana quickly put into your mind! It really works because the brain uses both hemi's while you type and you have to have a quick reaction before the slimes attack. I reccommend it.

I don't know how I found this site, but it has helped me retain Japanese vocabulary. You should start by learning the hiragana and katakana. The practice sheets are printable and will help you practice writing. The only way to learn is to practice by hand, and you can keep reprinting the sheets until you get in right. Believe me, if you get the writing down before school starts, you'll be very good when it starts.

The vocabulary lessons/tests are helpful later in the year when you've learned to read hiragana and katakana. Then take a few of the beginner vocab tests, and see if you can learn a few words.

Hope this helps!

I've taken Japanese for four years, i'd recommend flash cards, they've helped so much over the years. It kinda depends on how serious you are about it, it takes a lot of effort. look at the character, write it down a few times, then cover it up, try to write it as best you can, continue it that way until you can write it perfectly.
Once you learn hiragana, you;ll be able to learn katakana easily, its not nearly as complicated..
but kanji on the other hand..
good luck!!

Answer 4

Great query, as I've been considering this thought of LIFE in recent times. What I've found out? Not a entire lot. There's such a lot of matters that occur that my mind is simply too tiny to understand. It's irritating, as I desire to grasp the entire solutions, however it's what it's. I will on no account wholly have an understanding of why designated matters occur, and I'm establishing to uncover peace in that.

Answer 5

the traditional way.....Practice and only practice...Among speaking, reading and writing, you will easily learn first to speak then read but the hardest thing to learn is to write. It is just a matter of which of them you usually do. So practice writing more often as you do in speaking.

Answer 6

But a book on Japanese at the book store...

Answer 7

Answer 9

Oh oh oh, this is too easy a question to answer.
If you want to learn to write Japanese Hiragana, just write them again and again till you can write them easily.

This is the Hiragana:
あ　い　う　え　お　　　か　き　く　け　こ　　　
a i u e o 　　 　　　　　ka ki ku ke ko

さ　し　す　せ　そ た　ち　つ　て　と
sa si su se so 　　　　　　　ta chi tu te to

な　に　ぬ　ね　の　　は　ひ　ふ　へ　ほ　　
na ni nu ne no 　　　　　　　 ha hi fu he ho

ま　み　む　め　も　　や　（い）　ゆ　（え）　よ
ma mi mu me mo 　　　　　　　　ya yu yo

ら　り　る　れ　ろ　　　わ　（い）　（う）　（え）　を　　 ん
ra ri ru re ro 　　　　　　　　　 wa (wi) (wu) (we) wo n

None of us can learn things with no effort.
Good luck.
