Learn Japanese FAQ

Q: Your vids helped inspire me and reinforce the Japanese i have hammered into my head if I had your vids i would have got this far in a day not weeks. I have one question, i read online that ひらがな / hiragana was not used in modern japan but on the other hand i see in in manga 漫画　all the time and in japanese tv all over the web…  was the internet mistaken or is hiragana just used for particles…???- Darlock

A: I think I remember reading that Elvis was an alien and that TVs contain secret tracking devices.  Yeah, most of what you read on the net is wrong.  We use hiragana all the time, you can’t really write anything in Japanese without it!

Be genki,
