I’m struggling to understand how this works? how are you meant to lean without romaji to learn how to pronounce the characters?
I simply don’t understand.

Thanks

Have you listened to the audio? That might give you a hint.

@astro750 - It would be good to learn how to read Hiragana. This shouldn’t take very long, and will help you greatly in studying Japanese. Some of the dictionaries available on LingQ will also display Romaji, and you are welcome to add these to the hint fields when saving a LingQ. If you have any further questions please let us know!

@astro750 - Practice makes perfect :slight_smile: I learned Hiragana a few years ago, and found that some were easier than others to remember. It shouldn’t take too long though, and reading through texts to practice your Hiragana is probably not a bad idea either!

@astro750 - I found this site really helpful - Hiragana Katakana. Scroll down to ‘Hiragana Katakana self-learning materials’. Youtube’s great, but this has all you need at your fingertips.

Hello!!! Right, I’ve got the series of books called ‘Let’s Learn. . .’ and in the book ‘Lets Learn Kanji’, I’ve been learning the radicals the ones which are inderpentant Kanji as well, I’m not sure weather to learn or not to learn the radicals Kanji which are non inderpentant. Do I need to learn them?

Thanks a bunch!!!
