Japanese: Learning resources for Beginner to learn Japanese?

Postby ypoons0602 » Fri Jul 12, 2019 11:05 am

I saw several reviews of Lingodeer and Bunpro. Seems that both have their supportive users. I just begin to learn Japanese, and want to focus on just one site. I'm wondering which one is better in terms of building basic knowledge of Japanese language? Or any other options?

Personally, I liked the combination of Assimil and Japanese for Everyone.

It's not a website but I'm currently using Japanese From Zero! 1 and it's pretty good. There's no accompanying audio but the writer did create a series on YT that goes along with the book.

I think the Reddit Starter Guide has a good overview of resources for beginners.

Personally, I prefer something that moves at a faster pace than JFZ. However, I do enjoy George's YouTube channel and all of his materials seem pretty solid.

I recommend looking into subs2srs (japanese learners are so blessed lol) and morphman (mattvsjapan's video).
