What is the differents between hiragana and katakana?

Because Im learning katakana. It was easier than hiragana..

[davidfof13]

@KrikoNamii katakana has the same amount of characters as hiragana but its use is for foreign words. It's just a modern version of hiragana used mostly for non japanese words.

for instance "computer`" in japanese will be "Kompiyuta" written in katakana. Get it?

[ErrorOccurred]

Enjoyed it. Thanks a bunch. ^^

[babykikino]

I think it is hard to remember Writing Systems.But after learning it, it's much easier to remember the vocabulary. Never Give Up!!! Fighting~!

[jetamnogiz]

@babykikino I shall be very pissed if what you are saying turns out to be complete bullshit, but thank you

[mellowjelloifal]

The stroke order helps alot you should post a video on that.

[Vladimerge]

2:10 lol what did i do?

[pkmntrainer100]

@Vladimerge I shouldn't laugh... But I found it quite humerous also.

[88floor88]

I can speak dutch and english, I had some deutch and frensh at school but I suck at it... I can speak some korean and now I want to learn Japanese... THANK YOU FOR HELPING ME!

[justcallmeHao]

[dr33mwalker7]

What's the number one tip to learning japanese?

[mestremartell]

@dr33mwalker7 I'd say never give up... :) try to learn something every day, even if its just a word, and watch lots of JP movies with subtitles. I did this to learn English and it worked pretty well :P

[EDJapjan]

dam its so hard

[420thebeatles]

i speak english and german and im going for trilingual and this helps SO MUCH!!

[KELLERMANisBACK]

@420thebeatles going corresponding quadlingual XD i know english, im progressively adding more to my chinese, my spanish is somewhat developed, and now i can use this to add onto my knowledge using characters from chinese and the sounds from spanish XD

[goofey708]

Thank you so much for putting this up !!

[WhyTheFlux]

Katakana = Loanwords.

[DJHeroMist]

thanks! i like the idea of what your doing. most of us are here because we like anime lol. but i want to learn bc its a extra language also if i know it i can watch anime and not have to focus on the subs so much lol

[JoBoPe]

I just started learning Japanese last week (I'm Danish), and your videos are really a perfect way for me to repeat my lessons and fill out any gaps in my understanding. Furthermore, it's a great help to be able to listen to the pronunciations over and over again at home. Thanks a lot!

[Noxus1234]

AAWWW MAN, I wish I found this ages ago. I tried learning how to read, write and speak japanese awhile ago, but I could never learn. But I remember some of the symbols....for the least. BTW Thanks for this video ^__^

[dreamyfishXD]

this is great :) it's sooooooo easy to follow

thanks x

[WeI1994]

how in the world can we remember all these..... Im can read chinese,,so kanji may not be a problem..but Hiragana and katakana are killing me

[WeI1994]

finally...a whole serie to learn japanese! thanks soooooo much!!

[braindeadcow]

im learning japanese yay ^_^

[SPART4N30000]

thank you : ありがとう

[raca1984]

Instead of Hu, there is Fu... F U! LoL I like how she said FU to us with that gentle voice ^_^

[violinistx100]

My brain's gonna explode :(

[shadows0614]

@violinistx100 My thoughts exactly



[Mateauss]

how the video says : for spanish speaking people this is easy ;)

[crazymonkey122100]

In the Hiragana chart you forgot the g's. The alphabet goes: A i u eo, Ka ki ku ke ko, ga gi gu ge go, sa shi su se so, za ji zu ze zo, ta chi tsu te to, da ji zu de do, na ni nu ne no, ha hi fu he ho, ba bi bu be bo, pa pi pu pe po, ma mi mu me mo, ya yu yo, ra ri ru re ro, wa wo n. Hope that helps!

[sleapyrusher]

[ChairOKey]

[BradJMagner]

Thanks you ssosoo much, I'm in Japanese at the University of New Orleans and I'm so lost right now. I'm doing terrible. Thanks, this really helps

[Razzledazzy]

so in a store would it go:

a ka sa ta naha ma ya ra then ga za da ba pa?

[surferdudette19]

thank you so much you rock thank you ! >w<

[Aunpaidintern]

I thought that the "fu" sound was pronounced "hu"? ,:(

[carolinabojo]

great podcasting voice. Very clear. Thank you!

[leo874life]

I like your effort however. This is just to much info all at once. Also it might be nice just to start with kana alone not all 3 of them at the same time. Also Its better to learn how to speak be for you learn how to write it because i feel that writting it is alot harder to learn however if you know how to speak it first it is eaiser to learn how to write it

[ABluishBaby]

@leo874life i agree =/ but it is good info
