Today's Kanji
Hello and welcome everyone! For those of you who don't know, I'm a fluent speaker of Japanese. I just have one problem - I can speak Japanese, I can read hiragana, and I can read katakana, but I've always had trouble with kanji. Now, until recently that wasn't a big issue, but then I decided I wanted to start writing in Japanese. But to do that and actually have myself understood, I'm going to have to know kanji (I'll get into the reason in another post if you want to know why).
