I write stories to teach Japanese without relying on translation (like the lingua latina per se illustrata). I have been working on it almost every day for the past 3 years. I am so proud of the result. Every page solves the tiny problem of introducing a few new words in context. That's not hard per se but the accumulation of these makes the result unique.

I'm a big fan! Such a fun way to approach a new language! Would make it absolutely perfect (in my mind) if you could click the hiragana to hear the sounds, but I understand that that would require a lot of storage.

(For my self, I'd made this one-word-a-day tool https://dugas.ch/word_of_the_day/)


Thanks for the kind word. It's not the first time I have been suggested to add some audio. I am not against the idea but I'd rather focus my time on creating content. Also I believe some browser extensions such as this one can do it https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/rikaikun/jipdnfibh...

I might suggest using it in the intro.
