desertcart.com: Learning Japanese Hiragana and Katakana: A Workbook for Self-Study: 9784805312278: Henshall, Kenneth G., Takagaki, Tetsuo: Books

Review: Incredible book! - Absolutely love this book! Here is why: 1). They add practice words for each set of hiragana and katakana you learn. This is very helpful for getting used to the way it is written and read. 2). They include free audio with a link that can be found in the book! Super helpful for people to use 3). They include many examples and explanations. 4). Lots of writing space for each letter! 5). They include Dakuten ! This is super important when it comes to pronunciation and reading. My only suggestion is to practice both the hiragana and katakana sets at once. They have a chapter for hiragana and one for katakana, and they separate them into small sections, like the first two columns, the vowels and k line. I find it best to learn the same hiragana and katakana lines at once. For example, I find it best to learn the hiragana vowels and katakana vowels at once. However, either way you chose will work with practice! I also think it’s important to realize you won’t become fluent with this one book! I recently started kanji, and it is a completely different matter, and it will take a while to become fluent, however, this will definitely help you become able to sound out words and help you learn how to begin writing! This book alone won’t completely teach someone hiragana and katakana, active recall and repetition are very important to memorize the writing system, and kanji will take a while to learn, but this is a very helpful resource, and I 100 percent recommend this!
Review: Excellent practice book for a new learner! - I was looking for some easy to use practice books to start learning hiragana/katakana and I decided to buy this one (along with a couple others.) I've primarily been using this one, and it makes the learning process seem so easy and seamless! I love that it gives you little reviews in between learning the kana because it's like a little break but you're also enforcing what you've already learned. I especially love the Part 3 - Final Review section (Part 1 is Hiragana and Part 2 is Katakana) because it combines a bunch of different exercises that feel more fun that strenuous in nature! Things like crossword puzzles, matching games and other simpler exercises. I would 100% recommend this for a new learner to get their toes wet into the script writing and reading process! Love it!

I've been using the "Learning Japanese Hiragana and Katakana: A Workbook for Self-Study" alongside my Duolingo sessions, and I must say, it’s a game changer!

Absolutely, especially if you're pairing it with an app like Duolingo to keep the momentum going. For anyone serious about learning Japanese, this combo is a powerhouse!
