Hiragana Heroes is your first step in mastering the Japanese writing system. Written Japanese uses three scripts: kanji and two phonetic syllabaries—hiragana and katakana.
Hiragana is the core phonetic script used for native Japanese words, grammar, and basic sentence structure. It’s the building block upon which you'll develop your reading, writing, and pronunciation skills.
In this class, you’ll learn all 46 basic Hiragana characters and how to use them in everyday situations. Whether you're reading children's books, practicing your favourite anime phrases, or writing simple sentences, Hiragana is a vital tool in your Japanese learning journey.
At launch, we are focusing on the big three: Korean, Japanese and Chinese. With over 100 million fellow learners worldwide, you're in great company.
