Kanji is hard to learn for us, too....

[Taotao]

I'm new in the forum and nice to meet you all!

As you know, we Japanese use more than 5 types of characters.
Hiragana(ひらがな),katakana（カタカナ）,kannji（漢字）,rome-ji(ローマ字), suuji(1,2,3...) and alphabets(a,b,c...).

People who want to learn Japanse want to learn all types?
That seems to need very hard work and much time.

Kanji(s?) especially have several sounds,at least two sounds,on-yomi(音読み) and kun-yomi（訓読み）.

For example,I want to pick one of NARUTO's character "Jiraiya".
'油' on his hitaiate(head-supporter) means oil and has two sounds 'abura' and 'yu'.
It's easy example but other kanjis have more sounds and complex us commonly

Anyway,I'm happy to help u learn japanese and to be helped learn english or german.

Ganbareee~ or Do your best
