So the next lesson is

Ah correct! you remember

Katakana!!!! Woooo!!!!
Which is the second and second writing system we will be working on so buckle your sets grab your water get a comfy seat, paper and pens and let's get started!

Also sorry for the different font that you are about to see, my writing app has been acting up lately, heads up so for the katakana they are all pronounced the same as hiragana so if you practiced your hiragana you will already know how to do the pronouncing, but just in case I will leave a example of how to pronounce it. anyways let's get started! You got this!

A-row:

ア (A) "(A)pple"
イ (I) "(E)agle"
ウ (U) "(O)ops" "(Oo)f"
エ (E) "(eh)" for example "Eh I'm good"
オ (O) "(O)pal" or "(O)val"

K-row:

カ (Ka) "(ca)p" "kit(Kat)" "(ca)t"
キ (Ki) "(kee)p" "key"
ク (Ku) "(Coo)p" "(Coo)l"
ケ (Ke) "K" "O(kay)" "(ca)pe"
コ (Ko) "(Co)ke" "(Co)pe" "(Co)ping"

S-row:

サ (Sa) "(sa)p" can sometimes sound like "sun"mixed with "(sa)p" with saying ones name
シ (Shi) "(shee)p" "(shea)th" "she"
ス (Su) "(sou)p" "(Soo)n" "Sue"
セ (Se) mix "(se)t" with "(me)t" it's basically "(me)t" but with se  "seh"
ソ (So) "so" "(soa)p" "(so)fa"

T-row:

タ (Ta) "(Ta)p"
チ (Chi) "(chea)p" "(chie)f" "bea(ch)" with a added "I" that's pronounced as "e"
ツ (Tsu) it's basically "su" but with a added "t" like "(ts)k) and "(tsu)nami" this one's a bit tricky so Start with a "ts" sound, as in the end of the English word "cats" Immediately follow it with a short "u" sound, which is like the "oo" in "food" or "zoo" but shorter
テ (Te) "(te)n" the e is pronounced like in "bed" or "let"
ト (To) "(to)e" The "t" is soft, like the "t" in "top".  The "o" is pronounced like the "o" in "go", but shorter, so pronounced as toh with a short, clean "o" sound.

N-row:

ナ (Na) "(Na)p"
ニ (Ni) "knee" "(nea)t"
ヌ (Nu) "new" the u is more pronounced like "oo" in food tho but shorter, so like Noo but a brief oo.
ネ (Ne) like "met" or "let" with a "N" instead
ノ (No) "no" the "o" part is more closer to "g(o)" but a bit shorter

H-row:

ハ (Ha) "(ha)ha" "(ha)t" "(ha)ck"
ヒ (Hi) "he" the "I" is more like ee in see but shorter.
フ (Fu) (fu isn't a hard f it's more like a blow with f in it if that makes sense) it's somewhat sounds like "who" but like quicker and shorter with a hint of the sound "f"
ヘ (He) "(he)llo" "(he)y" "(ha)y"  but quicker/shorter
ホ (Ho) "(ho)pe" "hoe" "(ho)se"

M-row:

マ (Ma) "(ma)ma"
ミ (Mi) "me" more of a e sound in "keep" but shorter
ム (Mu) like the cow sounds "moo" "(mo)ve"
