"After a half hour, I was blazing through each exercise: highly recommended for beginners". - The Huffington Post
“I came across Dr. Moku's Hiragana Mnemonics....Thirty minutes later I had memorized all hiragana". - BoingBoing.net
Mnemonics are memory tricks that use humor or a memorable personal connection to help you fix and break associations so your brain has no choice but to remember.
Perfect for the complete beginner, young or old, this is the foolproof and definite way to master the first steps in learning Japanese.
Each screen presents a Hiragana character along with a mnemonic clue and audio clip. Read the clue, listen to the clip and move on to the next one. The alternating bold colors will 'reset' your brain so you start fresh with each character. Then take a quiz! You will be amazed at your ability to recall Hiragana after just a few minutes.
I have a very visual-based memory, and this style of learning just clicked. I’ve tried using other language learning apps and sites in the past but always had problems memorizing the characters. I’ll continue to take the quizzes until I don’t have to think when I see the characters. Thank you for such a simple yet effective tool.
Good
At the beginning it wasn’t working but then the next day the apps started to work. And it’s very helpful so far it’s good
I payed for it and I couldn’t do anything
I payed for this app excited that I could start learning Japanese better. I was wrong. I opened the app and it said, download the app please, so basically, I payed for it, opened it, and cant do anything. So i wasted my time trying to learn Japanese by spending my money to be told "download the app please". Such a waste of my money. Don't buy unless you want to be disappointed that you cant do anything. This is such cap. 👎🏽
Good but…
When you’re listening to music and try to do quizzes it stops your music even if you mute sounds in the app. The features to practice writing could be better. Some of the flash cards don’t have the full strokes of the characters so it makes it a little hard to use that for writing practice.
Great app.
What a great learning system. I learned Hiragana in 15 hours. I ended up downloading a free quiz app and bounced back and forth between the two apps.
Some glitches on quizzes
This app has pronunciation glitches. When doing quizzes, the pronunciations sometimes are totally off and don’t match the words. Other than that, I like the visual memorizations.
DOWNLOAD THIS
I’m in a fast pass Japanese class and had to learn everything in 2 weeks. Sounds insane because it is. This app is amazing with helping ways to remember it. I’m not sure why this isn’t more known for Japanese students. Worth every penny.
Good App Overall
Helped me learn Hiragana and master it quickly. Add Dakuten into the lesson though. That is my recommendation.
Very good app.
The mnemonics works for me and helps me remember the different characters ina flash. My only suggestion is that on the quiz, I hope they add the feature of reviewing the missed characters at the end of the quiz. Otherwise, the app is very helpful for beginner learners of the Japanese language. Thank you.
Omg this is amazing for real
If you try to learn Hiragana but forget few mins later? This would be very helpful.
It only take less than an hour to learn and read Hiragana.
