[SIZE="3"]こにちわ and welcome to my 1st class! I am so excited to teach all of you who want to learn how to speak Japanese. My lessons will start with all the hiragana and katakana, because if we don't learn this, japanese will be impossible to learn. Then we will move on to greetings and other basic words. (As a tutor, I must include that these lessons will be getting harder and harder, so stick with it! It will make sense after a while who do understand. And one more thing, STUDY!! It makes all the difference.)

Now let's begin!

Now, in japanese, there are 3 different writing systems:

Hiragana: Basic japanese writing systems, this is what you write japanese words in.

Katakana: This is the type characters used to say words in foreign language, like english. It's also used for advertising.

Kanji: The most formal writing system. There is so many I actually don't know how many there are.

okay, now that we got that out of the way, I'll show you the hiragana.

Hiragana:

ところで五万ぐらい漢字があります。。。

Just an FYI, if you want to type or read in Japanese, go into the language section and get the East Asian languages. Also, look for a detailed description on how to do it. It can be a real pain in the ass. haha.

well for a foreigner trying to become proficient in the written japanese, the 1945 general-use kanji also known as the "jouyo kanji" is said to be sufficient.

if that isn't possible, you can also use the online japanese writer. Just click the IME button to change your romaji into kana.
