Japanese learning #3: Kanji is crazy

By Crazy kappa | Skill acquisition | 27 Oct 2021


One thing that I find confusing about Japanese is the Kanji system. Granted, I haven't put that much effort into learning about it, and I've heard that a lot of Japanese people use Hiragana anyways, so maybe it isn't as important as I'm making it out to be. I haven't found any sources really explaining Kanji well and how to get the hang of it, so so far the only way I learn it is through my vocab. If you have seen any good explanations of Kanji let me know in the comments.

Now for my daily learning stats: 

Today I learned: 8 words bringing my total to 440 words

I watched: 3 episodes of anime

I did the chunk method again today and managed to learn a couple of extra words. I finished my work early today in online class so I was able to sneak in episode 7 of Haikyuu Season 2. I finished work early again so I could watch episode 8 of Haikyuu Season 2 and episode 9 of Haikyuu Season 2.

 

That's all for today folks. If you've got any tips or tricks feel free to comment them. If you know of a place where I can read manga (especially berserk) in Japanese please let me know.
