Hi Guys ! So glad to be back. Hope you’re all keeping warm 🌸 You can use this link to get a 7 day free trial and a 55% discount on Lingopie : learn.lingopie.com/RheaStudies Small typo at 3:44! it should be N5 in the doodle on screen, not N3 T_T Also since I recorded this voiceover without any real script, i did forget to mention one important bit, which is that everyone learns at a different pace and has different situations that allows for varying bandwidth/time they can put into language learning, and I’m in *no way saying that 3 months is a timeline that will work universally*! Please go at your own pace 🤍
@@ImSoHappy777You need to practice a lot, there's some sheets to practice that are literally just squares but they have on one side the letter and the other side you have to practice it like 5 times or do it in all sheet. You can start journaling in Korean, that way you will be practicing vocabulary and handwriting. Good luck❤
Please remember that how fast you are able to learn a new language depends on various influences like your own mothertongue, which writing System you use/know, what cultures you are exposed to, if you were exposed to that new language before, if this language is very different or more similar than your own, if you had studied other languages before, personal skills such as the ability to memorize or pick up patterns, and and and... You don't need to be able to rush through and it doesn't make you dumb to be slower than others, because of all these influences and personal skills. Japanese is one of the hardest languages to learn, especially for most westerners. So enjoy your journey until you reach your goal! Every little step you take is already an improvement you've made! がんばって!✨️
Yeah but if your motivated and get hyperfocused it should help. And you can accomplish anything plus living or visiting Japan will help because it's a good teacher but avoid speaking English.
@@mira.r Yeah if you made Japanese your job maybe you would be able to use all roughly 3500 words and all their variations in 1 year, 8 hours a day but 3 months is completely unrealistic and people who believe videos like this will only end up quitting faster.
This is so motivational 😭😭😭 I was so ready to go back to learning Korean but I’ve been procrastinating and now that school is back around I have to focus on my human anatomy studies
As a native Japanese speaker, I'm so impressed with your effort and speaking skills! Also, I was glad that you watched A Whisker Away, one of my favorite anime ever! (2:12) I just started learning Mandarin days ago, so let's keep going together!
@@irisnomo I guess it's easier for Japanese folks to learn Chinese cuz we've similar characters. So for people who don't know Chinese characters yet, I recommend learning them, especially basic ones first. English letters express sounds, but Chinese characters represent their meanings, so once u master them, ur gonna get written language better. That's why I strongly believe learning them will make your language acqisition faster and more efficient. Also, I recommend a yt playlist named 'EverydayChinese' which I'm currently watching:) Sorry for my long reply...
I started learning Japanese a couple of weeks ago. I'm using Duolingo, a book to learn common japanese words/phrases, and practicing hiragana as I go in a genkouyoushi. To me, it's easier to figure out how to write it if I have to write it larger, first. It is a lot to learn, but I am having a fun time with it. I never knew just how many characters Japanese has, and some of them look very similar, so sometimes I mess up, but I'm not getting discouraged!
10+ years of studying. My advice to everybody is to enjoy learning regardless of speed. You’re going to have other priorities in life other than Japanese, so you’re gonna be in it for the long haul. I used to be in an intermediate conversation class with two 50+ year olds, and they had been learning since they were in their 20s. Now I just have private lessons with a native teacher but focusing on conversation. It’s been a slow process but from where I was 10+ years ago with speaking it, light years in comparison.
As for me, I want to make my japanese learning as my main project this year, I am unemployed so I don't have things to do anyway. 😂 I hope that I will be able to read, listen to, and watch authentic contents in Japanese by the end of the year. And I hope that I can save money so that I can take an online course to practice speaking later.
I stopped learning Korean I think two years ago. I just noticed now that now that I've actually grabbed a notebook and started writing down all phrases that I understand from the K-dramas I watch, and get new phrases from that, I've been getting so much better to the point where I get a lot of what the characters are saying even without the subs on. :)
How can I be fluent in Korean do u have any advices?? Btw I also watch kdramas so I do know a lot of Korean wordss😊 but I wanna be fluent so do u have any advices please:)?😊
@@sams__ I'm not fluent yet lol but I advice since you enjoy k-dramas start writing down the words and phrases you understood without subs (write it in 한글) and then put the episode on korean subs to learn more words and phrases. I just realized I've gotten better because I've been studying for so long :)
@@eiarromba7149 dangg thanks a lot for the recommendation!! I hope it really helps😭😭 I wanna be fluent in Korean so bad so that I can watch kdrama with subs and watch kpop idol's live because they be speaking in Korean while I understand nothing😭😭😭
@@sams__ other than korean drama, maybe try to watch some vlogs? some people put korean sub in their so it'll help a lot. especially if their channel is catered towards international people, they will do double subs (eng-kr). i think it's more helpful in a way they talk in a realistic way. or maybe watch some variety show. they always put some caption
The more I see these click bait titles, the more annoyed I get. You can ‘teach’ yourself Japanese in three months but it’s *impossible* to learn it from scratch in that time. A year and a half in Japan, studying up to six hours a day has taught *me* that.
I agree with you I also spent two years (taking Japanese course) just to get N4 and close to N3 But my sensei makes sure we have good basics so it took some time And I still find out that there are so many things to learn!
Its possible. I know someone who went from nothing to N2 in 1 year. However they ended up living in Japan and attending Japanese school with Japanese studies. So unless you sort of have that experience or time to replicate it, it's kinda hard.
Thank you! All those videos make me feel like I'm not capable enough. I study by myself and it takes time. Hopefully I will progress much quicker when I'll attend school in Japan. Also, JLPT doesn't mean you can actually speak real japanese.
I actually used to have a really big issue with speaking, so i’d practice speaking to myself/to my plush dolls haha, i managed to get over it over time ^^
Me too been learning it since 2019 and still I want to talk to Japanese people too but I can't cuz I'm still beginning and I'm soo introvert 🥲💔 I feel so nervous I hope I can do it too
This affects me a lot myself, but if you need to read this, DO NOT LET NUMBERS DISCOURAGE YOU FROM LEARNING!! Japanese is NOT easy for English speakers. Some people are able to learn faster than others. That's fine! Learn at your pace. If you have better things to do, or if you need to be productive, please let those things keep you busy. But if you want to learn Japanese, find a way to make that a hobby. Only you can do that!
Good Video, not only you explained things patiently to make sure that it was understood, but also doing the voice over fully with the Japanese you learned, shows that it was a real achievement, as you fully demonstrate it, and for a pretty good amount of time. Congratulations!🙌
i’m glad that most comments agree that this is a motivational video! it really helps watching these (and it’s awesome to see someone else’s progress). what app did you use to practice writing your japanese on ipad? if it was mentioned in the video i definitely missed it ^^;
When I first saw this video on my recommended, I had to click on it. Your entire process to learning Japanese is what I find really admiring, and I must thank you a thousand times for making this video. It gets me motivated to study Japanese more, so thank you! ☺
Omg I am beyond impressed , you speak so fluently after 3 months! In the same time I could only learn hiragana and katakana somewhat besides uni classes. But I’m determined to become fluent ! This was so motivational thank you!
@@keliamitsu about a year and a half. I mainly used imabi paired with Genki(Tokini Andy videos) and the Tango books. I also tried to read some manga but it didn't click with me until I started a bit with N2. I also dropped Anki about a year in because it was so demotivating and boring.
Thank you for creating this inspirational video ! I'm sure this will help lots of people get motivated and study !!! ❤ One note for the viewers so you won't get discouraged : 🎯Her speaking skills in the video are clearly N3 and quite solid. 🎯It takes two or three times faster for advanced Korean speakers to learn Japanese (they share similar grammar patterns and a truck load of vocab). A native Korean speaker can get fluent in Japanese in a year or two. So if you only know English, be kind to yourself and don't set to be as fluent in 3 months. Take it at your rythm and stay consistent. You'll get there.❤
Your videos really help highlighting ways to learn Japanese effectively and this remind me not to procrastinate while studying. I really hope that by this year I will able to understand and speak Japanese well enough.
This is a super healthy attitude of learning languages. Not to be bogged down by not reaching "advanced" level and just learning to have fun. Not to be afraid of conversing and creating content in the language without "mastering it." Having learned Japanese active for several years and passively for over 25 years, I can read and listen quite well but I could barely speak. Well done. Keep it up! Looks like Madanrin next for you (logical progression from Kanji study)
i'm learning polish and i come back to this to get motivation also i used to be fluent in japanese and i love how you perfectly pronounce (i mean in pitch accent) some words and also we get to hear you try to sort the words out in real time when you relaise you were wrong in something this just made me feel normal to make mistakes while learning a language from scratch
I've been wanting to learn Japanese for a while but I've been putting it off and procrastinating for a long time..this video makes me want to start learning again so im gonna do it!
I've been learning for nearly 3 years now and its one of the best experiences i've had. There are so many ressources out there for casual learning so you should def start if you want to ! :)
i was looking at korean studying tips and remembered your channel. i come on here to see that you uploaded one day ago... literally just listening to the first thirty seconds of this video made me emotional,, like i am genuinely inspired now.
I saw a lot of comment said it click bait but it actually not, i for one got to N4 pretty fast but N3 is really difficult right now. You just need to keep open mind when learning language. The are a lot of people who speak even more than 3-4 languages . Keep fighting and be kind pls cause in future, smarter people than you might don’t make video because of hated comment are all over the place. Keep learning and Thank you for video :)
This was nice to watch as I have been learning Japanese for almost a month now, it motivates me to keep studying hard so I can also begin to be able to explain certain things, express myself and my goals for learning the language. 頑張るます🫡!
6:20 me too! its called comprehensible input if you didnt know! its such a good way to learn. there are also comprehensible input Japanese and korean channels
You achieved a lot in such a small amount of time! So inspiring ✨ It's fascinating to me that your Japanese has a slight Korean accent, which shows how deeply you internalized Korean. I genuinely think it's impressive... I don't think I have an English accent when I speak Chinese, nor a Chinese accent when I butcher Korean. I just have a Japanese accent since it's my first language and I can't shake my tendency to pronounce unnecessary vowels😂
Hello!! I am learning korean and I’m motivated by your comment to learn more. Do you mind telling me what you used to study? 저는 한국 사람인데 미국에서 태어나서 한국말 잘 못해요.
@@nachoboe 음,, 저건 누가 봐도 번역기 돌린건데요? 아님 죄송해요,,ㅋㅋ I hope your Korean study is going well now~ imho consistency is the most important resource and is totally free ;)
I was already friggin impressed with your self taught korean video (gurl you totally speak like a native) , and even more so after watching this one. I just started learning Korean recently and your videos gave me so much motivation
Hi ! I wanted to thank you for motivating me again, for learning languages. I also wanted to wish you good luck for learning French, it’s my mother tongue and I’m happy to have learned it this way (it’s rather complicated). 😊
Hey Rhea, I'm just starting to learn Japanese. This video is very helpful and motivating! Really love your confidence and flow that you speak with. Had seen your korean video as well, very very impress. Hoping that soon I am able to speak with the same level of confidence and fluency. I'm learning both Japanese and Korean. Wanted to know, how do I learn to write the characters in both languages especially Japanese, any recommendations where I can learn the strokes etc from ? Any books, youtube channels, websites ?
Korean writing is pretty straightforward so almost any resource would work tbh, as for japanese i used/still use jisho(dot)org to look up stroke orders!
@@rhea_irl Thank You so much! One more thing, the Korean Japanese language tests can be given even if you self learn the language right? I mean I can just enroll for their beginner level test if I think I can give it, is that correct ?
It's always awesome to see how dedicated people in learning or achieving something. Thank you so much for motivating me on learning Japanese, today will (hopefully) be my day 1🙏
i really missed your videos, rhea! i hope you have been doing well :) i have been wanting to learn another language, but i am afraid of forgetting the language that i am already learning (been learning for 4 years), how did you manage to balance it out? also, i think it is so amazing how far you have come in three months, you are truly an inspiration
Hey! Hmmmm that’s a good question, i sometimes do get confused with words between languages, but i dont think I’ve ever really forgotten any bits because of learning another lang. If anything, i feel like sometimes it actually helps me learn better, for example when learning japanese with a base of korean, or arabic with a base of hindi, there are overlaps between these languages that help me create associations and links in my head to memorise better ^^
@@Arabiclia I really want to! Haven’t seriously gotten to it yet, but i was in the middle east for a very short time where i kind of picked up how to read !
@@rhea_irl oh wow, you picked it up just by being there. That's some real high IQ right there, haha! I have never really commented on your videos though I have discovered your channel months ago, but since I finally did and I even got a reply from you, I want to say that your Korean and Japanese accents and pronunciation are super good! I'm obviously not a native speaker (I'm an Arabic native speaker btw), but I have been exposing myself to the Korean & Japanese languages and all I can say is that you definitely sound like a native in both languages. Wish I could one day sound like you do speaking Japanese. Thank you for inspiring. May you have a lovely day! 💜
I suppose that there is a chance I'm wrong, but I'm not believing the claim of n5 to n3 in three months. By the time a person passes n3 they will have learned around 3700 words and over 600 kanji. Also, you have to figure in all the grammar that must be learned, and the speaking and listening skills. To put it into perspective, just the kanji is equal to that of a Japanese student when the complete the 4th grade. 3700 words in 3 months rounds down to 41 words each day. She did say that she knew a bit of Japanese beforehand, but even if she already knew half of the words required for n3 that still is around 20 new words every day for 90 days. How many people can learn and correctly use 20 new words each day for 90 days in their native language? 20 to 40 new Japanese words each and every day for 3 months straight. Enough Kanji that it takes it takes Japanese children years of school to reach a similar amount. All the grammar rules, plus the ability to speak and listen to the language. Again, I might be wrong, but this seems like a nearly impossible task for anyone, even if it was the only thing they did for 3 months straight. So, I do have my doubts about this video's claim.
@@oh-noe 3 years is still pretty good. The US Foreign Service Institute trains diplomats and others who need to speak foreign languages. They have a language school and rank languages on their difficulty and how long it would take to learn each language. Japan is listed listed as a level 4 language and that is the most difficult. There are a total of 5 level 4 languags, Arabic, Chinese - Cantonese, Chinese - Mandarin, Japanese, and Korean. According to them, it would take 88 weeks at 5 hours of classroom instruction (not including study time at home) to reach a level in Japanese equivalent to N3. That's 88 weeks of dedicating yourself to learning Japanese in a classroom setting with an instructor who speaks native level, and the ability to practice speaking and listening in person with others. No job, no other classes, just learning Japanese. So, three years is a very reasonable amount of time for someone who probably has other responsibilities like a job and family life to reach N3. That's why I believe it would be very difficult to even reach N1 in three months, let along N3.
They probably did, what they didn't mention is that they speak fluent Korean already. If you know another East Asian language the grammar rules aren't going to be as alien.
i love love your channel please don't stop posting. it's so motivating seeing someone enjoy learning languages and it also motivates me too continue learning korean. thankyou ! you're so cool sis!
I love language learning (and teaching!) and I find videos like this very motivating. I’m comfortable with chatting about daily life in German, but I want to learn a lot more vocabulary and talk about more topics. I’m not yet at a conversational level in Japanese, I need to practice a lot more!
thank you so much for the video!! i've wanted to learn japanese to be able to understand and converse with other people but i don't know how to start so this really helps me a lot^^ i love your videos btw it always help me starts a new language without feeling lost on how to do it 💕
For anyone starting a language, the goal isn't to rush learning. Recognizing a word can happen quickly, but it takes a LONG time to practice producing the language. Nuance of a language and culture can't be fully understood in 3 months. These videos are encouraging, but notice the plug of products. What is the creator's goal in this? Also, a standardized test like the JLPT doesn't test for things like every day speaking and writing. Take all of these videos with a grain of salt.
I don't think everyone would take that away after watching the video but I understand where you are coming from. It could be that the creator is sharing the tools they used to help in their studies, and I like new suggestions, as someone who is a couple of weeks into learning the language. But creators on youtube also probably want to grow their channel, and a good way is through sponsorships, so I don't see the harm in this.
@@roxazaloah I agree 100% with him. These types of videos are abundant in a part of the language learning sphere, and not only in Japanese. They are fun to watch, but in the end they are more akin to movies. Unrealistic and made for entertainment. I have now spent soon to be fours years learning Japanese by myself, and I have spent a couple months in Mandarin Chinese and recently started French. My views on these types of videos drastically changed over time. At first I loved watching them, rather I was actively searching for them, maybe I had some inner desire to extract their “genius” and apply it to my own studies. Now I still somewhat enjoy them because they are entertaining, but they are far from motivating. I mean you wouldn’t watch a high school drama to focus up and motivate yourself on your school work. You watch it to just have fun.
The video was great, very inspirational for anyone wanting to learn a new language. If I could make a couple suggestions to help those viewing your videos. Putting a list of the apps/programs/podcasts you use and/or mention in your videos in the description would be very helpful. Adding links to those things would be a further step in helping others access them easy (maybe suggestions for specific flash cards, etc. that you personally use). And of course you are doing this for your own channel so with the links to various apps have links to the videos you have done going over those resources to better help those wanting to learn AND help grow your channel. Keep up the great content and good luck on your own language journey.
Oh my gosh thank you for sharing this! I understand we all move at our own pace, but this gives me hope on improving my Japanese before my family and I move there. Because I'm a visual person I took it upon myself to write out your advice.

i'm so excited! i also recently started learning japanese, so i'm super stoked to watch more content such as this! your korean language videos have been so helpful to me, and i'm sure your japanese language videos will be too! very happy for you to be back!
I haven't had any fun lately, 😭 so it was fun. You bring me joy!❤🙂I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. ❤I like the essence how you live on.
This is truly inspiring! After a year of learning, I am still stuck at memorizing vocab and some grammar points, still couldn't quite get out of the "a は b を verbます" sentence structure to express myself fluently 😭😭😭 How did you get so used to it? How much time did you spend learning a day? Did you talk a lot to a native? You sound so natural in this video after only 3 months of serious learning I am feeling stressed and frustrated, motivating nonetheless.
Hiii honestly the structure was really easy to get used to because of my existing knowledge of korean sentence structure ( theyre so so similar )! I spent at least an hour per day, and although i tried to speak with natives, most of my speaking practice was just me talking to myself/to my plush toys in my room (talking to people is way more intimidating and i feel like sometimes i think too much about what the other person is thinking; with plushes i can go at my own pace and they keep listening haha). Immersion also is really important and i feel like continuously hearing the language being spoken helps with getting used to more varied structures. I really hope you dont feel stressed, since i really do believe there are so many factors that affect the pace of language learning, and ive also spent years on other languages and given up because i felt like it was going nowhere, which in hindsight i really wish i hadn’t given up on. My only advice would be to keep sticking to it and do it at a peaceful and consistently sustainable pace ^^
Use Japanese more and you will get used to it. Studying can only provide you with the knowledge to do something, but using it will provide you with the dexterity and mental ability to make it easy to do.
As a beginner in Japanese, I began my journey with manga and anime, but I struggled to understand the main idea without assistance. I used to depend on Google Translate, which didn't help me progress in learning the language. Now, I prefer Immersive Translate because it presents both languages side by side, allowing me to learn new words and phrases on my own rather than just skimming through poorly translated texts.
You're such an inspiration for me because I was learning Korean and had tried to pick up hiragana a few months back, but gave up. Definitely should get back to it. Memorizing the different forms of characters has always been a weak point of mine :( (English and Korean are the best alphabets T^T boo Chinese and Japanese) I'm also wondering how many hours a day did you put into learning Japanese during these 3 months
@@rhea_irl I have very little knowledge of Japanese, would learning and memorizing all hiragana/katakana before learning sentence structures/kanji be worth doing?
@@aria9772 yes 100%! Personally i always feel like learning the script first is essential, although it does depend on your learning style and your own goals
I'm really happy that you posted new video and specially that it's about japanese.....It's my favourite and I really wanted you to make a video on this.....TYSM! 😭💗
Thank youuuu for this. I'm currently living in Japan . Feeling hopeless (and frustrated) about my current level. I finished N5 and aiming for N4 however couldn't proceed because my n5 level isn't polished yet. This is the sign that I should push myself more
It’s great to push yourself, but i want to reiterate that you shouldn’t ever push yourself to a point where you might get burnt out; consistency and sustainability are the two things i think are the most important and while of course you should always challenge yourself, always go at a pace that feels good to you. Language learning should be an enjoyable and rewarding experience 💖 Good luck with your studies
I loved the video! Your Japanese sounds great to me, but I'm only a beginner, so I wouldn't know if you made any mistakes. I hope to be able to speak as fluently as you one day. I have been learning Japanese on my own for nearly a year now. I did the JLPT n5 exam in July, but I still don't have the results. To be honest, I think I failed, because the listening went pretty badly! I'm not really that bothered though, and I have actually studied far harder AFTER the exam than leading up to it. Yes, I know, that's not what you're supposed to do! I'm now on chapter 16 of the Genki books (that's the fourth chapter of book II), and I'm doing a lot of kanji study with Wanikani. You didn't mention this app in your video, but I'm sure you've heard of it, as a lot of Japanese learners use it. I find the discipline of turning up every day for your reviews and doing a set number of lessons each day very fulfilling. It won't work for people who prefer a less structured approach, but for an aspie like me it's ideal! My plan is to take the n3 exam in a couple of years. I know, that's much slower than you, but there are several reasons why I am slow. Firstly, the amount of time I can allocate to Japanese study. I have a full time job, as well as a wife and three children, so I can't normally fit in more than 2 hours a day. That's including listening to stuff during my commutes and doing SRS reviews in toilet breaks, etc. Secondly, I am older than you (approaching 50), and I suspect my brain is not as supple as yours. It takes me ages to learn new kanji and I forget them a thousand times. I try not to get cross with myself, and I just accept it now. It's part of getting older. Thirdly, I'm not bothered by how long it takes to get fluent. I have no real professional need to learn Japanese, it's purely a hobby, as well as an intellectual challenge that will hopefully stive off dementia ;) Good luck with your journey, and congratulations for your achievements!
I personally think that people who often used "nanka" in kaiwa are already fluent in japanese. I am currently here in Japan for about a year now (came here with N4 level) and somehow on N3 level right now but I'm still not used to it.
Wahh.. That’s like four languages that you wrote there! It’s really awesome how you’re trying to learn more languages! I love listening to you talk in the languages you’re learning too. It’s been really pushing me to start learning a language more seriously.. hopefully I can get to doing that soon >< 🤍
As a person who sucks at studying anything (and is a huge procrastinator), I get motivated in learning japanese from their music&anime, I want to sing so badly but I can't so I'm casually learning bit by bit Having apps has definitely helped a lot - I just have to dodge the ones that ask for money www So this video was very helpful!
im super lazy and possibly the worlds worst procrastinator, and ive somehow managed to study japanese everyday for going on 2 years. you can do it my friend. just set a small daily goal (ex: learn 3-10 words) and it will become a routine. once it's a routine it's easy to keep doing, even if you're lazy. from there you can increase or decrease how much you do each day. the only thing that will prevent you or anyone from succeeding, is quitting. no matter what, if you just keep at it each day, you'll get there. it might take u longer or shorter than others but as long as you do a good little bit each day you will get there. this applies to various skills btw. as a young person it's crucial to find a skill and apply time each day learning it. this is something that gets harder and harder the older you get.
@@humanbean3Thank you so much for this, it feels so good to hear someone who relates😭👍 Since I'm starting an actual Japanese class next year I was quite worried, hopefully, once I make it a repetitive daily routine to learn it should help as that's just one way for a procrastinator to push through and get things started
definitely. u would be shocked how lazy I am, but i somehow made japanese a routine and it just feels like idk loading up a video game now, just something you do.@@dr.thunder1567
俺が3年以上日本語ゆっくり勉強してたんだけど、俺のスキルはN3とN4の間にあるんだけです。 Good job on all your quick progress! Very inspiring! I signed up for the JLPT this December, so I will finally start studying seriously again! Thanks for some idea that are helping me while I'm working on my own study plan.
OMG! Yessss. I have been looking forward to studying Japanese, thanks for the motivation. Btw are you planning on studying Chinese and making a video like this?
Also having Japanese friends is a big help I have 1 that speaks English better than me and he can speak Japanese really good so I always talk with him and I have another Japanese friend who can’t really speak English at all , so talking to him is usually challenging でも it’s also good for practicing and they told me to watch a lot of anime 😭
I’m working right now on going from passing N5 to N3. I know 600 words and 150 Kanji and all Kana. You have to learn 10 words per day to get from 5 to 3 in one year. Even at 6 hours per day studying that’s has been a stretch for me but attainable. Are you saying you have all 3200 words, the grammar, and the Kanji done in 90 days? The M5 test was significantly harder in person than any of the study materials. You cannot pass them if you cannot read fast, that includes Kanji. I’m interested to know how you mastered 10 kanji per day with on and kun readings plus grammar and 24 vocabulary words. I can’t seem to do that, and I’ve got a native speaker in the house helping me
Step 1: Be native. Seriously, she's scamming you all. Unless you don't have literally any other thing to do other than learning japanese, learning N5 to N3 is just nuts and not very logical.
