u will cry alot when you reach grade 2 if you have no idea what kanji is... my centre's grade 2 student without chinese basic all quited edi...

for memorising kana, my sensei only gave us 1 day time.. guess.. although you wont be good at it... through out the course where you have to constantly read out and expose to those kana, you will pick them out in no time

I don't have any Chinese basic but I can cope up with the lessons provided. I can now grasp at least 240~325 of the most basic Kanji.

The most difficult is not actually writing the words, or the pronounciation actually - the multiple readings of one Kanji character.

You might found out that is said as "kuruma", but the another reading for that is "sha". That's why most people can get confused by the multiple readings of one Kanji character.

The reading "Kuruma" is used when it is used by itself.

The reading "Sha" is used when it's used as compound words, like 汽車, "ki-sha"(locomotive train).

Sometimes they have two to three readings for one word.  blink.gif

tht's not too bad actually.. while grade 2 having 8k kanji as minimum basic, even me with mandrin background will start to sob soon

Basic Lessons on Number, Commencing!

Let's start with the basic kun-yomi (the Japanese pronounciations)
For those who already learned Japanese or Chinese, observe the suprise later lessons.

Basic 0 to 10

Suprise no. 1
零 (Kanji, rarely used for number 0) or 〇 (a perfect circle) - zero, rei (rarely used)

一 - ichi (one)
二 - ni (two)
三 - san (three)
四- yon (four)
五- go (five)
六 - roku (six)
七 - nana (seven)
八 - hachi (eight)
九 - kyuu or kuu (nine)
十 - jyuu or ju (ten)

No suprising fact, do you know where the word Yakuza came from?
It's from the numbers 8-9-3 (in total 20, ya = 8, ku = 9, 3 = sa(za))

There is a traditional Japanese card game, where you need to win with 19 face instead of 21 (blackjack). 20 face meaning you are losing the game by one point. Isn't it a disgrace to lose just by one face? Later, Yakuza (8-9-3) is used to described dark, digraced and unfortunate society of Japan, the Yakuza.

Irregular kun-yomi for today - e.g. 三 three = sa or za.
The regular kun-yomi is san (さん).

Tips for today
Be careful, san could also mean (mountain) e.g. 藤山
Fujisan (regular - Fujiyama, Mount Fuji, not Mr. Fuji 藤さん, notice the kana).

For basic Japanese lessons, refer to the start of this thread.

kanji

一つ = ひとつ
meaning that the kanji flow = 一二三四五六七八九十 + つ

一人 = 1人 =ひとり
二人 = 2人 = ふたり
Others will be 三四五六七八九十 + 人

一枚 = いちまい
flow = 一二三四五六七八九十 + 枚

Guess from here you should being able to find out the pattern flow, i will only proceed with kanji only later on
だい = 台
かい = 回 This kai means number of frequency repeating an action, such as you bath twise, we use kai
かい = 階 While this kai means level, for example your exam grade, or level of building, 3rd floor
ばん = 番
さい = 歳
さつ = 冊
こ = 個
ぱい = 杯
ぽん = 本

This is what we call 数量词 or penjodoh bilangan..
let me know if you have anymore querry.

If you want to edit and move to frontpage, pls send me a pm

edit : note * that japanese will use 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0 instead of the kanji, laziness ^^
