It's already #5! It means you learnt at least 40 basic Kanji if you were following my lessons.
That's so cool, right?
And here is a good news for you. We're in a halfway of basic Kanji level 1.
After that, you're gonna learn 熟語(じゅくご)Jukugo such as 花火.
Normally Kanji has an individual meaning and it can work by itself independently.
However when kanji is used with another kanji their meaning will be changed.
For example, 花 means 'flower'. 火 means 'fire'. we learnt them already, right?
Plz guess what 花火 means.
The answer is 'fireworks'!!!!
Dose it make sense to you? haha
It's like a puzzle, isn't it?
Some Jukugo could be guessed if you knew both of them.
What fun kanji is!!!
Do you agree? hehe
Anyway, Let's learn some more basic Kanji. :)

Are you getting used to Kanji?
Not really?

I know it's hard and bothers you.
But if you learn basic Kanji it'll never bother you!
Trust me :)
