| I taught myself the Kana in about an hour or so a day over a two week period using these cards. I did small batches at a time. These cards are great. One downside... the hiragana and katakana are color coded. This means as soon as you look at a card you know what group it belongs in and so there is no recognition learning value in being able to distinguish the hiragana from the katakana. Since these two systems are used for different purposes you do need to know which is which and not just the correct sound. For many characters the written form is easy to distinguish but for others not so obvious (and this also depends upon the typeface used). I made black and white copies of the cards and found that my results were not so good for some characters. Try it an you will see what I mean, otherwise, recommended. |

I strongly recommend this product!
You will be able to learn kana in just three or four days!!!!
You don't have to deal with technology such as ipods, mobile phones, computers, etc. in order to study hiragana and katakana.
You can take them anywhere you go.
Don't hesitate to buy this product!! |

These flashcards are a terrific learning tool for those (like me) who are struggling with learning hiragana and katakana. Not only do the cards provide the character on one side and the english equivalent on the other but they also have cleaver mnemonic devices to help you remember. for example, the hiragana character for "mo" looks like a fish hook, so the card says "you'll catch 'mo' fish with this hook." It sounds silly I know but things like that really helped me learn!
I can't say enough good things about these cards!! |

I am extremely happy with the cards. With these cards, I learnt all the hirigana and one day. And when I started learning the katakana, I surprisingly learnt all of them within an hour!!!! Well, the Kana, not the vocabulary! But still! One thing to add though: Since I am Chinese, it's easier for me to learn Japanese than other western learners. But I did come across other materials which (might be useful but) are boring. To round up: highly quality cards; highly recommended. P.S.: I am so happy with the cards that I purchased the complete set of Kanji cards afterwards. If one day I speak Japanese, it's White Rabbit Press.
