Description

Do you want to learn Japanese? Whether it's your dream to live in Japan someday or you just want to be able to understand your favorite anime, learning Japanese will help you experience Japanese culture to its fullest.

When learning a new language, one of the first things you should do is familiarize yourself with its alphabet. The Japanese writing system has 3 different alphabets - hiragana, katakana, and kanji. Most Japanese learners start by learning hiragana, then katakana, then kanji.

If you're a beginner Japanese learner, this course is the PERFECT place to start.

Hiragana is like the ABC's of Japanese. By learning hiragana, you will understand all of the different sounds that exist in the Japanese language.

In this course, you will learn how to read and write the hiragana alphabet with video lessons and over 150 practice words. Video lessons include a simple explanation of the characters and visuals of stroke order and font variations. The resources section of this course also includes downloadable practice sheets and Quizlet sets to help you master hiragana. By the end of this course, you’ll not only have the hiragana characters memorized, but you’ll also understand how the characters come together to create words.
