The runway

Room Map

Follow the rooms from your first hiragana to reading katakana — with music along the way.

Vocabulary

Start Here gives you enough structure to begin. You will learn hiragana, words, and sentence patterns as Japanese needs them — not because a checklist says they must come next.

Soon you will meet Japanese that contains things you have not formally studied. That is intentional. Read what you can. Notice what you recognize. When you need help, Ask ChatGPT Sensei can sit with a reading, a word, or a sentence — then you continue.

The goal is not to finish studying Japanese. The goal is for more and more of it to light up.

There is a path, and you can follow it. You don’t have to understand all of it yet. You can already read some of it.
