Introduction:
There are many tips to learn a language. If we talk about Japanese, the internet is also surely flooded with details to learn Japanese. With so much data available it can be confusing as to what to follow and what not to follow. So I sum up my personal top tips for you all to learn Japanese with ease.
Must-know tips and tricks
- Learning material
This is the basic necessity. You cannot start learning a new language if you do not know where to start from. So your first work will be to gather good learning material. Now, what does the learning material consist of? You require books, basic books of Japanese to begin with. You would also require grammar books. Remember that you cannot learn a language without knowing its grammar. Now I will tell you how to go about this. Start with the letters. Do not worry much about your handwriting at this point. Focus on the pronunciation. Now after you know about the letters, you can start with words i.e. vocabulary. You should know what a word is called in Japanese. Only after this will you be able to create even small sentences.
You can also put in a little extra effort here, by maintaining a notebook and writing down words that click your mind, and find out the Japanese translation for it.

You will know how to speak, how to frame sentences, how to use words, how to put in grammar, and a lot more.

Dedicated practice
There are a number of things that come into consideration when I say practice.
- Practice speaking in front of the mirror. Let me tell you my family members used to stare at me in the beginning. Later on they got used to me speaking to myself. It’s kind of funny, but you can try it for yourself and see.
- Revise: our brain tends to forget what we learn each day. I revised my work daily.
- Dedicate time: time is the most important factor here.
- Even if there is nobody to sit on your head to sum it the assignment, still do it. Be your own boss.
