Holy shit I'm so retarded I can't even remember few kana characters

I think I'm starting to remember them by their key presses, not sounds

hmmm, there does actually seem a system to this

no there isn't a system, it's a clusterfuck

I've got hiragana down and now Katakana

This is difficult. I hope I don't forget hiragana now.

It's worse than hiragana

I think I got kana down. Now just continuous training so I don't read at the speed of a retarded 1st grader.
And now the fun part begins, grammar, kanji and vocab

I got addicted to InfraSpace instead gg.
At least it's a fairly short game, first playthrough took me only 24h.

This is retarded

Woman is 女 and read as おんな
Child is 子 and read as こ
Girl is 女の子 and read as おんなのこ
That makes sense.

Guess how 女子, female is read? That's right, じょし

Honestly I have no clue how you are even supposed to remember this

@matrix you're not supposed to. That's all of etymological interest after "tenderness", the part you're supposed to remember. Just like when faced some random medical word that you don't recognize, you can intuit the meaning from remembering bits of Latin, you can get a sense of an unknown character, but that's not what you're supposed to do. What you're supposed to do is recognize the character.

@apropos but that's often not possible as often the kanji are build from completely unrelated parts with different pronunciations
