"After a half hour, I was blazing through each exercise: highly recommended for beginners". - The Huffington Post

“I came across Dr. Mokus Hiragana Mnemonics....Thirty minutes later I had memorized all hiragana". - BoingBoing.net

Mnemonics are memory tricks that use humor or a memorable personal connection to help you fix and break associations so your brain has no choice but to remember.

Each screen presents a Katakana character along with a mnemonic clue and audio clip. Read the clue, listen to the clip and move on to the next one. The alternating bold colors will reset your brain so you start fresh with each character. Then take a quiz! You will be amazed at your ability to recall Katakana after just a few minutes.

This free Lite Version covers 25% of Katakana. We offer an in-app purchase which adds the entire mnemonic system, additional quizzes, word search game etc.er
