Do you find it difficult to study Japanese?

Many foreigners find Japanese difficult so much that it is said that Japanese is a word that "laughs in and out while crying."In order to learn a language that is not your mother tongue, I think it is necessary to devise a lot in any language.

In particular, Japanese may be difficult and boring because there are many grammars, vocabulary, and character types (hiragana, katakana, and kanji) that you need to learn. Still, some people may be attracted to Japanese culture and Japanese people and continue to study Japanese. So, is there an easier and more enjoyable way to study this difficult but fascinating language?

Study Japanese easily and happily here3I would like to introduce two study methods.

1. Manga study method

As you know, Japanese manga is one of the most influential Japanese cultures in the world. Compared to general Japanese teaching materials, manga does not have a strong sense of "written language", so I think it is easier to read.

In addition, the scenes depicted in manga and the terms used are often closely related to daily life.

Above all, the content of the manga is so interesting that you won't get bored reading it. It is very effective to find a manga that interests you and study while reading it.

Here's how to study mangaTips!!

① Be sure to read the Japanese version of the manga!

 Choose a manga with a subject that you are interested in and that is closely related to your life.

 Have a marker ready, and if you come across a common sentence pattern, an idiom, or a word you don't understand, put a marker on it so that you can find out and remember its meaning.

 Read the same manga repeatedly to deepen your memory and understanding.

2. Movie / drama study method

Learn Japanese by watching movies and dramas!If you are interested in Japanese, many of you may have tried this study method. If you touch a lot of original Japanese video works, you will not only be useful for studying Japanese, but you will also be able to understand Japanese culture and the language environment of Japanese.

However, it seems that some learners tend to be drawn into the story when studying in movies and dramas, become absorbed in the content, and forget to study. (Lol)..

By the way, I would like to tell you that "study method" is really important. !

Movie / drama study methodTips!!

 We encourage you to watch movies and dramas with subtitles in both your native language and Japanese.

② At the beginner's stage, choose a movie or drama that is as close to life as possible, has moderate lines, and has a relatively simple vocabulary.

 Prepare an electronic dictionary so that you can always search for words you don't understand.

 Prepare word notes to record words, idioms, and idioms.

 The important thing is to work on it for a long time.

3. Song study method

In the study method using songs, it is recommended to listen without looking at the lyrics for the first time. Guess the content of the lyrics while feeling the music. From the second time onwards, listen while looking at the lyrics, look up and understand any words you don't understand, and sing along to understand the meaning of the lyrics.

Song study methodTips!!

  • Choose a Japanese song that is easy to sing and easy to understand, with a moderate speed.
  • Strong sense of rhythmRapAvoid songs such as. There is no problem listening to it as music, but if you use it for studying Japanese, be careful when listening to songs with a strong sense of rhythm, as it may cause dizziness and headaches.
