Where Hiragana Takes You
What you can read now, and what comes next.
You Can Read Hiragana!
You just learned all 46 hiragana, the marks that change them, and the small kana. That is the whole script.
Hiragana carries the grammar of every Japanese sentence, so it is the piece that gets you reading the fastest.
Every Sound Carries Over
Katakana writes the same sounds with different shapes, and a few of those shapes are close enough to their hiragana to read straight away.
