LEARNING JAPANESE FOR 2024

Working away on Nihongo thanks to DuoLingo. Thought I wouldn't get caught up in the competitive game aspect but you can't escape your own character! I've passed the tipping point and no longer have to make notes as I undertand everything that is being said and most of my lessons are perfect. That said, while I can understand foreigners speaking Japanese, I have difficulty with the speed and accents of native Japanese speakers whom I listen to on Netflix and Youtube videos. My Happy Marriage is my favourite anime and Midnight Diner: Tokyo Stories is my favourite drama series. I understand some of what they are saying but not all. Next step: a personal tutor.
