Katakana : ka-ki-ku-ke-ko

So you survived the first part. Take a deep breath and jump on in!


In today's lesson, we will look at the K sounds.

- ka - as in CAr
it looks like the hiragana ka (か), just remove the line.


キ - ki - as in KEY
This also looks like a hiragana ki (き) without the base.


ク - ku - as in COOl
It looks like guy giving a thumbs-up. That's COOl!


ケ - ke - as in Kay or CAke
It looks like someone's CApe


コ - ko - COld
It looks like a refrigerator door, that's COld!


Write them out 10 times a day and soon you will get it. To
aid memorization, make silly associations to go
with them. You can use the above mnemonics or you can make your own!
