It&#8217;s fun, easy to use, and easy to master! No ads.

However, let&#8217;s take a quick tour to see what the website offers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Pick one alphabet to start with<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><meta charset=\"utf-8\">Hiragana and Katakana actually share the same syllable system. Both have 46 basic characters, with 5 basic vowels a-i-u-e-o, etc. The difference lies within the way they are written and used: While Hiragana&nbsp;is widely used in Japanese, Katakana is mainly used to write borrowed words and foreigners\u2019 names (e.g: coffee = koohii [\u30b3\u30fc\u30d2\u30fc]).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A bit of advice: People usually learn Hiragana first, but no one says you can not do it the other way. Start with the one you like!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:20px\">Learn and Practice frequently<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>MochiKana lets you practice after learning new characters. Take your time to learn and review until you are confident. If you find some characters hard to memorize, just spend more time with them and everything will be fine. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:20px\">For each character, make sure you know how to write it and how to read it<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>MochiKana supports you with both GIF and audio to demonstrate how to write and read the character properly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Feel free to download the <a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/u\/0\/folders\/1EiLrWUrNjMVgA531HOCb5PqacJu9hg8v\">Hiragana and Katakana Practice Sheets<\/a> to better your writing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>You&#8217;ll learn how to write&#8230;<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1050\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/mochidemy.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/mochikana-a-1050x550.jpg\" alt=\"MochiKana a lesson\" class=\"wp-image-512\" style=\"width:840px;height:440px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\"><em>&#8230;. and how to pronounce.<\/em> <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1050\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/mochidemy.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/mochikana-aki-1-1050x550.jpg\" alt=\"MochiKana a practice\" class=\"wp-image-513\" style=\"width:840px;height:440px\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1050\" height=\"550\" src=\"https:\/\/mochidemy.com\/support\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/01\/mochi-aki-2-1050x550.jpg\" alt=\"MochiKana a practice\" class=\"wp-image-514\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-text-color has-css-opacity has-background\" style=\"background-color:#f3f3f3;color:#f3f3f3\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" style=\"font-size:24px\">Quick Notes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>If you could not remember 100% characters, don&#8217;t worry!
