Note:
| I’ve included a vocabulary list like the one above in each lesson to help you practice Hiragana and Katakana. The characters in the Word column are Kanji, but don’t worry about memorizing them yet — there’s a separate Kanji course for that. You don’t need to memorize these words either (though it can be a little helpful!). The main goal is just to give you fun practice with Hiragana. ✨ |
