MODULE 1A - Hiragana ひらがな (Ha,Ya,Ra,Ma and Wa-Line)

In the previous lesson, we have listen to the pronunciation of the 46 Japanese characters and learnt how to write the characters from the A-Line, Ka-Line, Sa-Line, Ta-Line and Na-Line.

 Now let us continue our lesson with the Ha-Line. The characters in the line are:
は (ha), ひ (hi), ふ (fu), へ (he) and ほ (ho)

Next, let us write the characters in the Ma-Line. The characters are:
ま (ma), み (mi), む (mu), め (me) and も (mo)

Next, let us write the characters in the Ya-Line. The characters are:
や (ya), ゆ (yu) and よ (yo)

Next, let us write the characters in the Ra-Line. The characters are:
ら (ra), り (ri), る (ru), れ (re) and ろ (ro)

Take note of the correct writing of some similar characters like る (ru) and ろ (ro). Most people made mistake at the end of the stroke.
While る (ru) has to curve in at the end of the stroke, ろ (ro) do not need to curve in.

Next, let us write the characters for わ (wa), を (wo) and ん (n)
