I hope that you are having the good start of the year. It is already 2012..time flies by, doesn’t it? In this posting, I wanted to share where you can learn Japanese hiragana for free. Hiragana is one of Japanese writing systems, and after reviewing some websites, I find these websites to be very useful, so if you are interested in learning hiragana, please check these Japanese lessons.
