Character Chart Hiragana

The first thing to do would be to learn how to pronounce Japanese. You do this the best through Hiragana ひらがな.

This is the best one that I have found (This video was not made by me). She pronounces the sounds as she wrights them. I would advise against reading in "Romaji" try to learn the characters, this will make it so much easier to learn the language, but I will put up romaji for those who go against my advise.

 This includes "tenten" (the two line at the top of the characters)
 and "maru" (the circle at the top of the characters) Maru actually means circle

Character Chart Katakana

This chart called カタカナ (かたかな)  has all the same sounds as ひらがな, just written differently.

(This video was not made by me)

In the video you will see ひらがな appear first then below you are shown the same sound but in
カタカナ.

About Me

My family is created from a mix of races and cultures. I consider myself Japanese as that is the greatest percent that makes up my genetic ethnicity. I grew up in the U.S but would like to move to Japan and find my family, I do not know most of my family, the only ones who have been in my life is my mom, my 2 uncles, and my gram and pap (grandparents).

Growing up my relationship with my mom was never as strong as I longed for it to be but a change in events occurred. She got married to a man who is great! He is a City police officer, and not only that but he showed me that I now have a father in my life. And on top of that I had a beautiful baby boy that I named Tomohiko. 

I have had struggles throughout my life that sometimes would make me wonder if all of this was worth it. What kept me on a good path was the dream of getting to Japan and finding my family along with being in the culture that I am closet to in personality, attitude, and beliefs. But now with my son I could not be happier. I still want to learn the Japanese language fluently so that I am able to get to Japan with my new family to give my son a better life. 

I am going to post what I have learned, please if anyone sees an error leave a comment in the post that informs me about what is correct so that I can change it. Also if anyone could email me at Shizukesa1Nguyen@gmail.com and help me with learning Japanese it would really help a lot! Thank you!!! ^_^
