Before you start anything, you should set a clear goal, preferably with a deadline. This will help to really focus your studies. If you're not sure what your goal is, simply ask yourself “why do I want to study Japanese?”  \nDo you want to visit Japan on holiday? Do you want to be able to read your favorite manga? Or perhaps you want to become a ninja. Depending on that answer, you can focus more effectively on a study plan.  \nThat might be obvious to you but it is worth saying. And there is one more reason to have a clear goal that people sometimes forget about.  \n[LearnJapanesePod.com](LearnJapanesePod.com)  \nAnd that is, setting a goal avoids wasting time studying stuff you don't need to know. If your goal is to visit Japan for a week on holiday, then you should just be studying simple phrases for booking tickets, asking directions and perhaps shopping. You don't need waste your time studying 2500 kanji from a dusty textbook for that.  \nSo, why do you want to study Japanese? Think about it and leave a comment below.  \nOn to my next tip.  \nTip \\# 2-Know your everyday expressions  \nFor those of you who want to visit Japan, work here and be able to hold a conversation in Japanese, learning high frequency everyday expressions is a great place to start. You should know greetings for different times of day, asking how people are and how to say please and thank you.  \nFor example:  \nおはようございますこんにちは  \nこんばんはお元気ですか元気です  \nお願いします  \nありがとうございますどういたしまして  \nohayō gozaimasu  \nKonnichi wa  \nKonban wa  \nogenki desu ka genki desu onegai shimasuarigatō gozaimasu  \ndō itashi mashite  \nGood morning  \nHello (Used around midday)  \nGood evening  \nHow are you?  \nI'm ﬁne  \nPlease (Could you do something for me?) Thank you  \nYou’re welcome  \nTip \\# 3-Learn expressions that don't translate easily into English  \nAfter learning some basic daily expressions you should learn phrases that don't easily translate into English. In other words, learn phrases that give you a deeper insight into Japanese culture. This also helps you to stop translating words from your own language into Japanese which wastes time and makes you sound unnatural. Here are some examples:  \nお先に失礼します-osaki ni shitsurei shimasu  \nThis means something like, \"I'm sorry for leaving before you\" . You say this when you are the ﬁrst person leaving work or some engagement with a group of people.  \n[LearnJapanesePod.com](LearnJapanesePod.com)  \nお疲れ様です-otsukare sama  \nThis literally means, \"you must be tired\" . It is used in various situations but means something like good job, or well done. You use it to express your appreciation for someone after they have exerted a lot of effort for something. It can also be used when someone ﬁnishes work and goes home for the day.  \nYou often hear the last two phrases together like this.  \nA: お先に失礼します-Right, I'm off (Excuse me for leaving ﬁrst)  \nB: お疲れ様です-Bye (Good job)  \nこれからよろしくお願いします-kore kara yoroshiku onegaishimasu  \nThe word \"yoroshiku\" means something like good or please treat me well. So this phrase is could be used to mean \"I look forward to working with you\" or \" I look forward to doing something with you in the future\" . It's used a lot at the end of a se","cbCaigOLqj6eYCw8","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaigOLqj6eYCw8","pdf",2741695,"English","# Introduction\n## Top 10 Tips for studying Japanese\n## Tip 1 - Set a clear goal\n## Tip 2 - Know your everyday expressions\n## Tip 3 - Learn expressions that don't translate easily into English\n## Tip 4 - Drill common speech patterns","[{\"question\":\"Why should learners set a clear goal for studying Japanese?\",\"answer\":\"A clear goal helps focus your studies and prevents wasting time on content you don’t need.
