How should I study Japanese?

Macchan

I often hear from foreigners that Japanese is difficult.
It's true that there is no subject, there are various particles,
and we have hiragana, katakana, and even kanji...

This is just my opinion, so just think, "Oh, I see!"
What topic do you most want to share? Kids? Anime? Cooking?
There are many.
First, learn to say it in Japanese.
Start by memorizing the phrases.

I am also an English learner.
Of course, I have learned the basic rules of English.

However, the reason I am learning English is because there are things I need to communicate.
So, first start by memorizing the phrase, and once you can use it smoothly,
try creating sentences based on the phrase you've memorized,
or swapping words in the sentences.
Small mistakes are not too difficult to make.
When a foreigner speaks to us in our native language,
we are happy that they are learning Japanese,
and we want to try to find out what they have to say.
Every day, try muttering your actions and thoughts in Japanese,
as if you were talking to yourself, even if it's just a simple tweet.
It's also good practice.
It's also effective to chat to GPT in Japanese.

Language is a tool for communication.
Therefore, free talk is very important.
Please try to get more experience in free talk
and become proficient in Japanese.
