I found the examples are literally an image abstraction and how to read them.
They're what you'd find in a similar Genki Vol 1 book, the emojis are cute.
The furigana is invaluable and it helps get the structure in place, I do it similar with song lyrics from utanet.
- pchap10k 6y agoMore or less that’s right. They’re a good step toward seeing pictographs as phonetic characters. When I first starting learning Japanese I took an intensive 7 week course. We learned Hiragana and Katakana in one week, though it took longer to really make that knowledge long term available. I forgot a lot of it after completing the course, but my first year living in Japan helped restore it all! Now my kids are learning kana and my oldest kanji. The state of the art here is still drilling and repetition. FWIW this website is cute, but without learning the characters you have to rely on verbal instruction, so as an experiment it only works after learning the Kana.
- toto444 6y agoHi OP here You definitely need to learn Kana beforehand. It used to be specified but I decided to remove it a while ago.
- klipt 6y agoFrom what I've read, spaced repetition like Anki is state of the art for memory intensive subjects like kanji/hanzi.
- imtringued 6y agoYou have to mess around with plugins if you want to use Anki. Learning Kanji is also really painful. I'm still only 75% done even though it has been a year already.
