I tried reading some japanese websites and i didnt understand anything (no wonder) so i am starting to learn it..
But how do you even read it? it seems to me that it is several alphabets MIXED together. I mean i have a sheet here with the Hiragana alphabet and i also notice some of the letters are hiragana on the website, but then suddenly some very complex letters are mixed in, Are those kanji? And if they are, arent there like Thousands of kanji out there how can you even learn them??

Any help is appreciated..
