I don’t know what each of the hiraganas means, except for の. Usually, it means something like ‘of’. I can’t think of an example, though.
Hello,
I really love your website!!
I am sorry for bothering you.
Your website is soooo cuuute!!!
I found it though the Duolingo Forum.
Did you perhaps create an app version of this website too?
I really love your website, unfortunately I don’t have many opportunities to use the computer so I am usually using my android smartphone.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Kind regards,
Georgiana Lavinia
Thanks for your comment! I hope I can make an app too. But It’s too expensive for a student like me, so I will make one if I can get enough fund in the future. But I tried my best to make the website easy to use even on mobile. (You can add the website icon in the home screen too, i have a post about it in the forum. And if you found There is something inconvenient places on this website, feel free to tell me, I will see how to improve them.
I love the pictures for ぬ and ね!I always used to get them confused. Now they’re very clear to me.
Glad to hear that!
Your examples are getting better with each lessons. Thanks.
Yeah, hiragana in the former lessons will appear too, so you can review them.
I thought you should know that the last word, Tonari, has “RI” which isn’t explained until lesson 9.
Fixed!😄
I wasn’t sure but was ない supposed to be 無い in the word column or is it usually written as kana? Right now it’s ない in the word and reading column
It is usually written as ない
Why is cat like ねこ and not こね , because i thinked that cat in Japanese is neko and not kone
Except that excellent web
I can feel my brain expanding
The tips for ぬ and ね are really good and extremely helpful!
Glad to hear that🤣
