If you're doing it mostly for fun with a side benefit of recognizing a few characters here and there, go for it. Just know you're choosing to learn in a way that's not really recommended for most.
If your learning goals are mostly focused around reading, it's helpful a bit.
If you want to actually understand and use the language, hiragana, katakana, vocab and grammar have much higher utility.
- irq11 8y agoThis is correct. My most complete advice would be to focus exclusively on the language you’re learning and don’t futz around with half-measures, but who am I to tell you what to study? If you’ve gotta satisfy the itch, then sure, you might learn something.
