A funny way for remembering the similar letters 「シ」 & 「ツ」 that stuck with me is to imagine シ looking up ツ’s skirt and saying “*she* has nice legs”, alerting ツ who looks down and goes “tsu!” (scoffing or spitting at him). That way, you can always remember that シ looks up while ツ looks down in a mildly perverse way, probably not something you’ll learn in class lol
I actually ordered them from Japan, just to make sure (no kidding). But any 1.0mm ink roller will do the job (I also use uni-ball Gel Impact 1.0, which are available around here).

Just learnt hiragana and katakana, your videos helped me a lot, because i could actually see, how exactly i should write all kanas. Now i just gotta learn dakuon, handakuon and yoon for katakana and then i can jump into kanji and phrases. I will use your next videos for kanji to learn my first ones. Thank you for your help! :)
@@isra0.o hey! Mostly just google resources, I always googled smth like “list of kanji’s for beginners” etc etc, I also have a Japanese friend that I can ask for help or tips if needed
for hiragana し the stroke goes up at the end, so does the katakana シ for the last stroke. the hiragana つ the stroke goes down. the katakana ツ also goes down for the last stroke. thats how i remembered it!

@@femcel_undercover It’s actually agonizingly slow, but I decided to focus on proper language learning rather than writing. I guess I’ll catch Kanji through exercises.
Good day to you, partner; exactly i was literally with this issue like 40 seconds ago *Hi~C!* the kanji 'Chikara' meaning 'power' really looks way too similar to the 'KA' katakana. thank you kindly for reading and have a great time !
Oh oh I think I know what you just said. The katakana ka and power (chikara), katakana e and kou, katakana ha and 8 (hachi) are the same in appearance yet the mean different things. Am I right?
