Rinkos N5 to N1 2025 Study Log

I’m Rinko and I want to be able to understand Japanese games and manga. I tried to learn Japanese last year, but I was in the hospital for most of it, so I’ll try again this year and do my best. My goal time is short because I don’t have the best health and want to do the most I can.

I bought Genki 1 and 2 and have been using them with Bunpro and renshuu, and Anki to help drill in more kanji.

Today marks my almost second week of learning Japanese. Grammar is giving me the most trouble but kanji is fun. My goals are 6 grammar points a day for exposure, and 50 kanji a day. I have a lot of ghosts because I have trouble typing on the app, but that’s my own problem and I’ll just use it to practice more. I’ve been able to read the first five short stories on this app, but slowly. I hope my reading speed gets better. :slightly_smiling_face:

I’ll try to update my log once a week to hold myself accountable.

Just to let you know: you can deactivate automatic ghost creation. Instead you can set them manually when you feel you need them.

Good luck on your japanese learning journey :slight_smile:
