Can this also be called kanji?

[NOTALIVESTILL]

@YaburuRunyaru no, Kanji represents idea per character and there are over thousands of characters - this is hiragana, its similar to the english alphabet where each character represents a sound instead of an idea.

[YaburuRunyaru]

@NOTALIVESTILL Thanks a LOT, I did't know that! THNX!!!!!!

[MissGreenDay7]

Oops! I've been doing some of them wrong! Thanks. I needed this video.

[MusicxMixz]

Omg! Thank you so much! I was practicing writing these characters over and over, and now I memorize them!

[jeninacasimero3940]

Guys, I promise you korean is way much easier.I have mastered it already but it is your own preference if you like to study japanese. haha, ignore my recommendations!

[MusicxMixz]

@jeninacasimero3940 yes Korean is easier to write, but the pronouncation is a little hard. Japanese writing is a very hard when it comes to memorizing Kanji(mostly because Kanji has over 200 characters), but the pronouncation is easy.

[Alvarez3230]

Good! Only flaw is that it doesn't show the proper way of pronouncing them.

[NokiaN82black]

1006 is more than enough. Don't push yourselves.

[pivotair]

Can somebody help me with Kanji?

[Houstof]

@pivotair if u have a ds there is a game for kanji learning... even if u don't have one... its worthy getting one to learn kanji.... kanji is really tricky, there is like 5 thousand of em'... you can't "know" kanji... u can only do your best... fluent japanese people know around 2.5k or so.... so dont feel bad if u can't learn them all

[AmuFan100]

[Gradow8]

[trackmaniakid27]

[ilovemommy2]

[YummieLove]

I thought it was just N, not m??

[Michibiki]

ん cannot be an M.

[pykabooo]

@Michibiki  if you are good in japanese help me please I'm a beginner and I will go live in tokyo in 2 yers so it will be better if I know how to talk

:D thanks you and why it can't be m?

[ManaOkamiMeiun]

@Michibiki It can sound like "m" when followed by a ba-line or pa-line syllable.

[Annihitate]

@Michibiki yeh obviously it's N xD

[FightingBen]

@Annihitate i  am not an expert of japanese but i Belive is between M and N so say NM

[partist2009]

what about j?

[koko177]

what about g, z, f, p.

[kyomem]

what are you talking about?

[xgenesx]

lol

[tomacalin86]

they're basically the same thing with k, s and h in the g, z, p part, but with something i think it's called "ten-ten". f is used from the h series' "fu"

[BeakyRed]

@tomacalin86 also shi becomes ji and i think chi and tsu are N/A

[Debatetime]

@koko177 I know what you are talking about. It's actually g, z,d,b,p and those are not really basic hiragana. However, with those all you add is to little dots in the upper right hand corner.

[DJTripState]

@Debatetime The dots are called tenten. Except for p they have a maru ぱ (pa) which is probably too small to see when compared with ば (ba) which has a tenten and は (ha) which has neither... And for even more advanced there is　しゃ　しゅ　しょ　(shya, shyu, shyo) which have a small y character next to another normal character in this case し (shi) and that changes the sound slightly, which can be apply to pretty much all of the other characters that have an i, like ki, shi, chi, etc... FUN!
