Yeppp I need them

I did hate kanji when I first started learning, but now it's genuinely the thing I love most about learning Japanese. The satisfaction of recognizing Kanji and successfully reading sentences, seeing the nuance behind it, the fun connections a character has with other characters. It's like a fun puzzle that I'll never run out of pieces to put together.

Thank you for selecting and trusting the MochiKanji - Learn Japanese app. MochiMochi greatly appreciates you introducing our app to your audience with the highly informative topic "How to learn Kanji". We wishes you and your channel a successful new year in 2024, filled with interesting and valuable videos 💞

I was told that the best way to memorize kanji is to basically memorize it as it comes up rather than trying to memorize every form and pronunciation each kanji has. So, if you come across a certain kanji like 人生 you'll know it'll be read as じんせい, but then you'll come across 生きる and you'll learn the new pronunciation for this particular form いきる

That’s a very good way. It can be better or can be the best if you combine it with an SRS (like Anki). With an SRS, you’re _actively_ trying to encounter the various forms. And it will help you remember by forcing you to *recall* the words before you forget them.

Left to right, top to bottom - simple yet essential rules for stroke order. Understanding these basics is crucial for writing kanji correctly

The nightmare is a Kanji having multiple pronunciations... A Kanji can have many Onyomi pronunciations

usually only one is common or the difference is just voiced and unvoiced. but kun readings are all over the place and make reading hard if you don't already know the word well. frequently kun reading is not really attached to kanji and many kanji are acceptable or offer nuance only

When studying kanji, don't worry about leaving the readings individually. You want to learn the words first then the Kanji like Japanese kids do.

I personally completely undermine the name readings and aim towards learning at least one of either on or kun reading of each kanji so that I could at least type them on Japanese keyboard. Then I learn Japanese words from here

Shiina... What a wonderful name! And you DID grow up to have excellent sensitivity and expressiveness, so it is perfect name for you, Sensei ! 👍👍😃

Ohhh, the variety of topics in MochiKanji's courses is impressive!

I totally agree - hard work pays off with consistent effort! Daily practice is the key to mastering kanji, just like any other skill 💪

These are very helpful hints. Thank you very much!

This is so useful! I have been searching for something like this to practice my Kanji! Thank you!

Your energy and passion for kanji are inspiring! Thanks for the vid

Having a personalized revision schedule in MochiKanji app can definitely enhance the learning experience. Can't wait to try this app

We love u Mochi (Shiina) Sensei! ❤️🥰🫶💐 great advice ☺️

Wow, I never knew kanji had such deep meanings! Your name 詩奈 is beautiful, and it's inspiring to learn about the significance of each character🌸

The video motivated me a lot, thank Mochi Sensei

5 Levels of Memorization in MochiKanji seem like a great motivator! Knowing which kanji need more attention helps in targeted revision

ありがとございます！漢字はとても難しくて楽しいです。漢字の練習をするのが大切です！❤

J-Dictionary feature in MochiKanji is really handyyy. Having quick access to word andkanji meanings enhances the overall learning experience

For 2024 I'll be satisfied with mastering Hiragana and Katakana and learn a good amount of words and sentences, but I won't neglect Kanjis while learning. Thank you Mochi-san for the great help and useful tips!

Your names both sound beautiful, thank you for your lessons.☺

This was my favorite Mochi Sensei video yet! Also the best summary explaination of the best way to learn Kanji. So many helpful insights! ありがとございました! My 2024 Japanese learning goal is to be able to have simple, yet fun, conversation with people and get to the level where I can ask learning questions to native speakers in Japanese to exponentially grow my knowledge. Love You!

The simplicity of the left-to-right, top-to-bottom rule for stroke order is something I'll keep in mind. It's a practical and easy-to-remember guideline

Great information in this video about learning Japanese . I am still learning but learning hiragana and katakana first is very important. Of course I am not an expert but can pick out a few words because of learning them. Thank you for sharing these tips .⛩️🇯🇵 Also your real name is very beautiful and you seem to have all the qualities it represents. 🙂💖

Hi Mochi, always looking forward to your videos

I like the app a lot. It has cute interface and keeps you motivated. I especially like tree growing☺.

MochiKanji's 5 Levels of Memorization are a brilliant way to gauge progress. Knowing which kanji need more revision keeps the learning process focused 📈

I love how you've made kanji learning so accessible with practical tips and an awesome app recommendation. Many thanks!

I pretty much didn't do any of this to learn kanji, I find trying to memorize them to be a massive waste of time. I just looked up new words as I went along and learned Kanji in context. It made it go by quicker as I wasn't spending as much time studying kanji and instead did other things like reading or watching stuff. The only real downside to this is that I can't handwrite but it's 2024, I can just look up the stroke order on my phone if I ever need to handwrite.

Thank you Saki for this Mochi -Mochi Kanji Learn Japanese 🍡🍡 It's fun..😊

Mochi-san, your video always motivates me a lot. Ahhh, I'm using the app like you 😍. Mochi (same name as you) is truly effective in learning Kanji because it automatically reminds you to review the prior Kanji. Give it a try!!!!

No problem 😊

I've been learning since a few months, and learning radicals is really important. I'm not super skilled, but I really enjoy deciphering kanjis, trying to mix all those radicals into a cohesive story that tells what the kanji is all about. I'm far from knowing all the radicals, but I'm familiar with most of them, and kanjis don't look that alien to me any more. It's really rewarding to see the progress I've made, even though I'm far from reading Japanese properly, and I've mostly devoted my time to get the meaning of kanjis, the prononciation is still a lot of work. Anyway, I wish I learned about the radicals sooner, they're like the alphabet of kanjis.

Arigatou for the lessons, Shiina sensei! 😊

Consistency is key, and finding time before bed is a smart way to stay on track🌙

Funnily enough nobody mentions using clever mnemonic techniques to easily remember the shape of kana, radicals or kanji irself. There are specialiced books for that. For example, the hiragana すresembles a twisted arabic sabre, the sabre of the SUltan. Just an easy way to connect す with SU in your head. With that method I was able to memorize the whole kana syllabary in about 4 days.

when i first encounter kanji, its very hard. but i learn some advice : dont really think kanji as a text but rather an image, and its easier because kanji has Radical. so your'e not confuse whether its 時 or 侍

my goals for Japanese learning is to learn enough so I can have proper everyday conversations in Japanese. really imformative video Arigatou Shiina sensei

Learning 5-10 words per lesson makes it manageable and ensures that I absorb the language effectively. MochiKanji 💯

Thanks

My goal for 2024 is to finish my first Anki deck, and study Japanese for at least 1 hour every day! I'm currently on day 12 and most days I'll find myself studying a couple more hours than just 1, I'm happy with my progress and I'm excited for the future! :)

shiina is such a beautiful name

even after learning jouyou and many more, it's a really difficult system. I think it works better for native speakers who mostly just learn to write words they know, and then kind of hard things like medical terms are a little bit obvious in kanji. But as a foreign speaker, they make reading much more exhausting than any other language because reading doesn't reinforce pronunciation well and you can easily forget which exact way the kun reading goes for a word you only know by recognition. I find it very discouraging when I want to read but I have to have so much mental energy to overcome the cognitive overload. Or else I spend 2 minutes staring at a kanji I know I just saw and know the meaning of but can't recall easily how it is said.

My japanese goal is to continue learning and hopefully be at a jplt 3 level by September when I plan to make first visit which seems possible or at least be in between jplt 4 and 3 On the note I admit my kanji, hiragana and katakana will probably be behind as I am slowly learning the writing system through a combination of duolingo lessons but I also pick it up naturally by seeing it in action Btw thank you whenever you reply to my comments either here or instagram by writing in the writing systems because it does help me think about what you typed even though I always look up the characters but I am catching on

I also recomand anki, is it is a spased repition that you make yourself. visualising each kanji with making own strories to each aka heisig method

Most efficient way I found to get through the 2000~ Joyo Kanji was Heisig's Remembering the Kanji, this uses mnemonics (visual aids) and was incredibly fun and efficient to learn the 2000 kanji and their associated meanings by linking stories to the radicals that make up individual Kanji. I would heavily recommend buying this book and giving it a try.

@youknowkbbaby

3 ай бұрын

I tried mnemonics and RTK. It was kind of a disaster for me. I ran out of stories and ran out of imagination around the 500th kanji or so. Also, using the anki program felt like a total burden. It's definitely a good book for some people and bad for others.

I'm slowly learning

I'm sure many cultures in the past said the same things and eventually changed their writing system to make it easier to communicate. Persia, Turkey, Malay countries, some southeast Asian countries, both Korean countries, ect.

My goal for Japanese is simple to one day be able to watch Anime without subtitles or Dubbed into English. I probably won't be able to this year but I'll work on it. I enjoy your teaching style slow enough and stress free. Learn at your own speed. Find methods that work for you and never give up. At least that is what I gotten from your videos. I will try the app and even if my hands will never be able to physically write Kanji as holding pens is a problem

The best suggestion is to read books . Seeing the kanji in different contexts speeds up memorization. Children books are a good start .

Your name kinda reminds me about Mayuri Shiina from Steins Gate anime (one of my favorites). Thank you for another video sensei!

Yes, they have the same pronunciations. Just the kanjis are different. (詩奈 vs 椎名) Also, one is a given (first) name while the other is a surname.

WOW! I can't believe you didn't know the Kanji for my daughter's university in Mita!

nice tips! but for flashcards, I would recommend putting the meaning (kanji) behind and the word you want to remember in front to stimulate your memory. example: in front: 庭に(dog)がいます。 behind: 犬 • [いぬ] For some people, it might look the same, but believe me, it's the most effective way.

❤❤❤love from Nepal ❤

Arigatho gozaimuz shiina sensei 😇♥️

Im not sure how difficult it is, but I'd like to take and pass the N5 and maybe N4 this year. But Im not sure how realistic that. But I did just upgrade my mochikanji membership to premium for 2 years and work at it every day. I also use preply and meet with a japanese tutor for an hour once a week. And I spend about 4-6 hours per day listening to natives vlog, give listening practice, and etc type of youtube videos while I work.

Small, regular efforts lead to big results

Such a cute name for such a cutie 😍

こんにちは、 このビデオをありがとうございます。私は漢字が好きです。

If only KZread had a real teacher

Hi thank you for your insightful video, I want to learn Kanji but it's difficult for the first time :

I want to move to and live in Japan in a cpl of years, I want to self teach at least to n3 before I am even considering moving

Given that hiragana is written without spaces between words, I find reading kanji easier than just hiragana.

Personally, as a native English speaking American, I LOVE kanji! Even if I don’t know how to read or pronounce certain kanji, I can still understand the meaning of them. For example, if I am familiar with the kanji for tree, 木, it does not take a genius intellect or years of study to figure out what “ 森 “ means. Once you understand enough radicals, you can get the gist of what signs and menus are saying; unlike European languages that rely on Roman letters, where you likely STILL can’t pronounce them properly, and have no context for the meaning either (yes, I’m looking at you Swedish! 😂)

Your voice is very cute!

This of course will work for 300 or 400 kanji, but not the entire 2100+. This approach is a typical japanese old way of learning. I believe my way is the key to learn kanji the quickest.

I hear this objection a lot that if you mush everything together in hiragana, then it’s a mess. Sure, but if you would use spaces between words, like every other language, it would help a LOT! Vietnamese has 6 tones!! And still managed to convert to latin alphabet, with a lot of accents sure.

I am a beginner. I know hiragana and katakana, and finishing lesson three in Genki… I use other apps and an italki tutor. Haven’t started kanji, yet. My question is this: I do not intend to write the language. I want to be able to speak and read it. Besides I could type the characters if need be. So, why practice writing the characters or learning the stroke order??

If you write the kanji you ll memorize them most easily. Type the kanji is a good thing but if you phone is dead how do you do, if you want writing something but you don t know the order stroke. And learn to write the kanji is a interesting part, of the japanese learning. Your adventure in the japanese learning start only. (A japanese native learn all the 2136 kanji in 10 years, so, good luck for your studies)
