Katakana and Hiragana Signs
Topic: Japan 2007
This post is mainly for my Japanese 1 classmates from last semester (I hear almost everyone has continued with Japanese 2 this semester - that’s great!). As I mentioned in my post a couple days ago, I’m getting plenty of Hiragana and Katakana practice simply by looking at all the signs I pass by. Just over half the signs I see are mostly Kanji, so I can’t read them, but the rest are mostly Katakana and Hiragana, which I can read. So the pictures in this post are some real life examples of how helpful it is to be able to read these two writing systems. I have additional comments in the photo captions. For the Katakana signs, see if you can figure out the English words they’re based on before reading the captions.
