Hi, i have some question hope someone can explain :
1) Are there any rule when the second word attached to made a new word the pronuntiation add the extra "
example :　説 originally pronouce as せつ but some time when it combine to become new word the pronuntiation change to ぜつ, do we have to memorize it for each combination or they are ONLY certain condition/rule it add extra "
小説（しょうせつ）
演説（えんぜつ）

2) For く, how come sometimes the "ku" voice is read as "k" only
example :
学生（がくせい, i think japanese spell it as "gaksei" instead of "gakusei"）

3) Do we need to memorise/understand the Kanji reading of ON reading and Kun Reading?
Currently i just memorise the JLPT/N vocab reading, not really sure do we need to care on the those ON reading and Kun Reading

bulk sell cheap cheap, pm and offer me

Not "very good", but since i already pass N3 so these books not needed anymore
PM me if interested

I found that memorising both hiragana and katagana on the same time will just mess up both table together
So i just memorise hiragana, for katagana i memorize through words instead (memorise reading of カレンダー instead of each character)

But i still having problem in listening, my brain cant follow the speed

Ya now I'm full time practicing listening skill, didn't focus much on kanji/grammar
You watch anime/NHK without sub can understand , i can't too fast for me to catch
You got any site to watch anime/drama/NHK with japanese sub to recommend?

mock test = prepatory class?
Recommend you to go, i go for N3 last time

I think we just have to memorize as we learning, no short cut way to memorize the pronunciation of this kind of word. Besides yakedo, what condition we pronounce it as かしょう Is also a question mark for me
Another example
故郷ーふるさと、こきょう
家ーいえ、うち

Hi,

1 year course ussually about Rm1k+ i think

My recommendation :
1) JFKL (Japan Foundation)
2) JLSM (Japan Language Society)
3) JCKL (Japan Club) - Institut Bahasa Teikyo - suitable if you prepare to further study in Japan, since course focus on EJU

Good luck.
