Today's fun kanji: 自・白・胆・胃・旭・千
自 and 白are easy for me to visually mess up. 自is oneself (eye with a tear drop) and 白 is white (a drop of sun). The extra line is, for some reason, harder for me to make out in 自.
I had to repeat 胆 (gall bladder) a few times. Flesh before sunrise. I'm just goin to imagine gall bladders get taken out before nightbreak.
胃for stomach, flesh that support the brain. I dig it.
旭 (rising sun) I had the second hardest time. But, the baseball rising in popularity in Japan is good way to think if it rising the sun.
And, I love 千(1,000). It's an eye dropper trying to get 2 more 0's on 10.
These exercises really don't take long. Compared to the 2 hours of Rosetta Stone and Pimsleur combined. I think I could up this to 30 or 40 a day, but i want to wait until I have seen some tougher kanji to make that decision.
Two more from Rosetta Stone today:
月居日・ げつきょび Monday.. moon-day. Really easy to see that one.
日居日・ にちきょび Sunday.. see the pattern.
I got nothing on the rest of the days of the week though.
