六ばん - Climbing the mountain.

Working through Heisig continues, unfortunately not at the rate of 25 Kanji a day which I hoped to stay up around. Sickness and just doing other stuff have prevented this but progress is still being made so onwards ho...up to number 70 now, phew only 1968 to go! and then learning there readings... But at least Kanji is much more logical then English. It is so nice to use individual symbols with so much meaning attached. Anyways time for some new words and sentences. Since these poss are becoming more spaced out I should go for a few more than usual:

The Family:

おとうさん - (another persons) Father
おかあさん - (another persons) Mother
ちち - (my) Father
はは - (my) Mother
あに - Older Brother
あね - Older Sister
おとうと - Younger brother
いもと - Younger Sister
むすに - Son
むそめ - Daughter

Nouns
 
てがみ - Letter
はな - Flower
パン - Bread
いす - Chair

Adjectives

ちさい - Small
たかい
- Expensive
やすい - Cheap
あたらしい - New
ふるい - Old
ちかい - Near
とおい - Far
やさしい - Easy
あまい - Sweet
からい - Hot, spicy
いそがしい - Busy


That will do for this post... next post will be all about sentence, bringing all these together and try and get some flow happening..あさみしまい!
