Field notes
Hanamaru organizes beginner Japanese study around several linked modes rather than a single lookup box. Its grammar material includes 127 points and a word-order demonstration built around particles such as は and を, while the kana section covers 46 sounds with described audio, animated stroke order, and recall drills. The page also links to handwriting, listening, multiple-choice, and JLPT N5 study paths.
