I’ve always have this question in mind. Sometimes when I read Japanese books or text book, I came across づ in words such as つづく(to continue) and also sometimes ぢis used instead of じ。Can you please explain why sometimes these two different words are used? However, I also realized that usually じandつ are used.

This video didn’t download through (my version of) “My Feed”: #7 also didn’t download, however #1 - #6, and #8 did download okay.
- Sorry to be the bearer-of-bad-news …

When I made this comment previously about #7, I was told that (probably) my version of “My Feed” wasn’t complete for Video S2. However that wasn’t the case then, and it isn’t the case now either.

I was following the katan kana series on youtube and that is how my sister and I came to know about JapanesePod101.com. It was a blast to learn the hiragana through such easy to learn videos. You and the team sure do make the Japense language fun, exciting, and easy to learn. Thank you for the effort and arigato for the lessons! ^_^
I do have a question…where could I find a keyboard that has the katan kana? I see them in anime and elsewhere in pictures. It would be nice to type on one.

Hi, I’ve been trying to download some of the videos, but they won’t download. Whenever I press the Download button, it just takes me to the video, that’s it.
Please help.
Arigato.
