tips for learning japanese
hello everyone
and welcome to my blog . let's start this post with a short story on why i started learning Japanese :
When i was 13 or 14 i started watching anime , the first one that i watched called death note but it was with English so i didn't have any idea on how Japanese language is . After that i entered to the anime world , Yes , i became a crazy otaku .I started loving Japanese culture , their food , outfit , the Lolita fashion .... and now in 2019 i start my first step in learning this language , without forgetting that i had a lot of benefits from watching anime like learning the basic word like arigato= thank you , ohaiougozaimasu = good morning , baka = idiot ......

in the time of written this post , i want you to know that i am not fluent but i want to share my humble experience with learning maybe it can help you .
-the first thing i advice you to learn is the letters so in each time you learn a new word you can write it and like that you will be able to memorize the letters easily during the process of learning .
there is 3 categories of Japanese letters :
there is 3 categories of Japanese letters :
1- Hiragana : this one is the most important , most of Japanese words are written with this letters . If you have a problem to remember it , you can check this webstie . Here some examples

2- Katakan : this letters are used to write foreign names and words . Some Japanese words have origin form other languages like dress = doresu , bus = basu , fork = fooka , coffe = cohi
Till now i still didn't learn the katakan's letters .
ps : my friend wrote my name in katakan
3- Kanji : oh the problem , kanji is not a letter , it's actually a word . Kanji origine is from Chinese language but this doesn't mean that all the Japanese kanji are used now in Chinese , some of them are but the pronunciation is different .
now how to learn kanji , i prefer to learn 1 kanji each day so you can remember them easily and like that you won't forget it .
Go to pintrest or google images and write "kanji learning" . The pictures that you find will help you a lot .
you can follow also some instgram accounts that teach you how to write and pronounce the kanji like : shioh shodo

- choose a perfect YouTube channel to learn from :
at the beginning i started learning form Japanese society channel but when i arrived to lesson 10 , things start getting harder so i switched to an Arabic channel called seieddo sensei.
The difference between the 2 channels is that the first one you like memorize the sentence as it is so you will not understand why they order the words like this , but the second explain exactly how to forme sentence , it explains how to use this letter , how to write sentence . for example :
1-wa always comes after the subject and it's written like ha in hirgana but it pronounce wa ,
2-de after place or like when i say i write with a pen
3- but if i want to say i am with my friend , i use in this case "to" which mean with
4- ni for places
and other letter like e , o ...
so if you speak Arabic i advise you to start learning from the second channel .
