Ain’t nobody got time for that.

R E I S U B

I have neither used a dedicated app specifically for learning the language, nor completed “learning” the language to a passable level, but I did start learning japanese using only freely available online resources. There was quite a lot of information in video and text form regarding grammar etc… For training vocabulary and the japanese characters (I only learnt Hiragana and Katakana - no Kanji) I used Anki. In my oppinion it’s very doable to learn a language this way without a course (though keep in mind that your pronunciation will suck if you don’t get feedback from people that actually speak the language) - in the end I was just too lazy to learn vocab.

And that says a lot!
