Basic hiragana

Voiced sounds (dakuten and handakuten)

Two small marks change a sound: ゛ makes k→g, s→z, t→d and h→b; ゜ makes h→p.

Combined sounds (yōon)

A small ゃ, ゅ or ょ after an i-sound blends the two into one beat: き + ょ = きょ (kyo), not "ki-yo".

Marks

• ー — the long vowel mark: Hold the vowel before it for one extra beat: あー is a long A.
• っ — small tsu: Pause for one beat before the next consonant: きって is “kit-te,” not “kite.”

Why a picture for each sound?

A sound like ね (ne) is hard to remember on its own. A net is easy. Once ね means "net", every word containing ね has a net in its picture, so you learn the sound once and reuse it hundreds of times. How picture mnemonics work →
