  1. Can't sleep. It's 3am. Hello #NightCrew. Emotional roller coaster week which I will talk about in October. (so mystery, such unclear).

    In the meantime, does anyone have a good recommendation for learning #Japanese #Hirigana and #Katakana? I've learnt most of my 日本語 from Duolingo and everything is very context-specific. I can recognise word shape with context, but struggle to read without.

    All the apps I've found so far are really dull flashcard things. Is there something good? Don't mind paid.

  2. I am not a #polyglot, not even close, but I do like learning languages. I speak none fluently, but I could probably function as a tourist who knows enough to get by in some of those countries that speak them. Anyway, I had no problem with remembering the #CyrillicAlphabet, which I think now is because it has so much in common with the #RomanAlphabet. I had no frame of reference with the #hirigana or #katakana #syllabary and there was no #romaji in the #japanese #Duolingo test.
