Hi Risa what is the difference between kimono and yukata ?

[@sleuthentertainment5872]

The yukata is only for summer season (I didn't know nothing about it, my fiancee told me)

I’m learning Japanese, is Hiragana then Katakana then Kanji the way to go when learning the writing? Any suggestions would help! Also, I’m using Duolingo, anyone have other suggestions for apps to help with learning?

[@RakiButa]

Hi! That order is good in learning the writing. Bunpo is another great app! It breaks down the learning into the language proficiency levels (which is the guidelines used for taking a certification exam for Japanese) It’s like Duolingo but more in depth in my opinion. It also helps with hiragana and katakana.
