Learning Hiragana//Katakana
May 12, 2010
Since Chet and I’s big trip to Japan is in 5 months, I’m trying to prepare myself to become more fluent in reading/speaking Japanese.
Today I made some Hiragana flash cards. I used my Cricut paper trimmer, thick card stock, my awesome Canon printer and my handy-dandy vector program, Adobe Illustrator, to create these cool flash cards!!
Before The Cuts
They took all day to make because I had to cut them individually, one by one, page by page. I’m glad I didn’t run out of ink! I got the idea from a website I found today. This website sold Katakana/Hiragana flash cards and it was slightly expensive, so I decided to create my own! 
Since I worked really hard on these cards, I plan on not giving out the template. Though, there are already a lot of free/ready to print- Katakana/Hiragana flash cards online. I would recommend in looking around online for the free ones. There are a lot of resources out there to learn the language!
I’m doing well with the language. I’m using Rosetta Stone (I HIGHLY recommend it!) and I’m also using a workbook that is really helping me. Hehe !

I LOVE this so much! Those cards are so cute!
you should teach me some Japanese when you get the chance 
awww kawaii!!! I’m trying to learn Kanji now xD I downloaded a handy dandy learn Japanese app on my droid xD
Good luck teaching yourself once you learn the characters it’s pretty easy!
That’s another way of learning Japanese fast, flash cards. And it’s not that expensive too. And most of all, it’s fun.
