When I first started learning Japanese, it felt like I was getting nowhere. I couldn’t understand a single word, and every lesson or time I spent on language apps felt like an uphill battle. I kept asking myself, "What am I doing? I'm not learning anything…”
But I kept going, because I just enjoyed learning more about Japanese culture. Fast forward 4 months later, and I can now have basic conversations with native speakers. It's not perfect, but it feels like a huge achievement compared to where I started.
For those who have been learning for months or even years, how long did it take for you to feel like you were actually making progress?
P.S. If you're feeling stuck or just want to share your journey with others, I’m part of a Discord community with other learners where we support each other and share tips and resources. Feel free to join us!
