Introduction
The longest journey begins with a single step.
Japanese alphabet is called "hi-ra-ga-na". Words are composed of "hi-ra-ga-na", and sentences are composed of words, as well as English.
For example, here is a Japanese sentence "LOL no i-mi ha na-ni ?". Can you get it?
| Japanese | English |
|---|---|
| no | of |
| i-mi | meaning |
| ha | is |
| na-ni | what |
See [tab. 1]. Now, you must be able to understand the sentence. Yes, the sentence says "What is the meaning of LOL?".
It is not so hard to understand sentences written in a foreign language, if you know meaning of words.
