I started Japanese Duolingo and I’m so bad at my hiragana. I forgot everything from high school lol turns out 20 years is a long time

@danirabbit At some point I gave up because I realized it is so much to learn and maintain that it requires extensive and highly frequent practical application. 😅 Of course, to some extend any language does but the writing system… 🥵 I also got a lawn to mow. By the way: the Korean writing system Hangul impressed me more by being thought through consistently as far as I learned. Less "historically grown" like some software projects. 😄

@i2h3 Yeah literally 90%+ of the TV I consume is anime and I always plays games with JP voice overs, so I’ve been picking up a lot of words and phrases just from that. I figured it would be good to just study it intentionally because I do have like near daily exposure

@danirabbit I've been working on that for a while. Have you looked at Busuu? Very similar, ads more irritating, but I think overall slightly better.

@smellsofbikes no but I’m not really interested in switching from DuoLingo. I’ve used it for a long time and I pay for no ads
