Hello. I learned 6 new characters today. I know 15 hiragana characters in total.

え = e
お = o
き = ki
た = ta
み = mi
わ = wa

I can now spell きん which means gold. I coined this from Gintama.

So far, the words I know are:

かみ (paper)
うみ (sea)
しち (seven)
あき (autumn)
おはよう (morning)
すこし (little)

I'm familiar with some Japanese words even before I started learning. I watch anime a lot, so it's a given.

I also practiced writing the characters on my phone



And on paper during my break time



I have a bad handwriting tho
