Ha, Hi, Fu, He, Ho....What you chucklin' 'bout?

こんにちは、

Today has been alright. But I really can't wait to start learning more Japanese! :D

So we've learned all this, practiced combining some characters to make words, and are over half way done with the basic Hiragana system. Right on! Let's get going shall we?

:When trying to say ha, think of the ha ha form of laughter.
:Hi is pronounced closer to he, as in he or she, a gender definitive.
:Fu can be sounded out like foot or food. Just cut it short and that's close.
:He is also similar to the laughter or snicker he he.
:When thinking of ho, think of Santa and his jolly demeanor. :)

There's only a すこし (sukoshi:little) bit left to get down now. Great work! Your moving right along.

Since I have a bit of free time today, I'm going to make a tutorial on how you can start writing にほんごが (japanese language) The が is ga, a particle like wa or ne. We haven't covered particles yet so don't worry too much. We'll cover that at a later date. Just know for now that, が is used when your talking about japanese, as in the language.

Find out more about particles, here.

JWoTD:
Kanji:
質問Hiragana: しつもん
Romaji: shitsumon

I'll throw up the tutorial later today, maybe tomorrow. Hope to see you then.

じゃまた。
