While learning Japanese, I’ve found that the easiest part has been the conjugation, as memorizing different word conjugations and sentence structure is always a pattern that once I memorize, I can apply to nearly everything. On the other hand, the hardest part of learning Japanese has always been memorizing the kanji and readings, as there’s always a lot that needs to be learned at once and I find it difficult to memorize the different readings. My expectations for Japanese have changed slightly throughout the years I’ve been learning, as it’s gotten more difficult and required a lot more time recently.

My biggest goal for Japanese is to maintain at least a basic conversational level so that if I’m ever in a situation where I need to speak in Japanese, I won’t be completely lost. I think that I still need a bit more work before I’ll be comfortable speaking Japanese outside of class. Currently, I review my Japanese vocabulary in school to help with this and also watch videos from Japanese content creators to practice more.
