nihongo　日本語 Japanese language

Learn Real Japanese

We take gritty, raw Japanese stuff and turn it into useful language learning material! Real-life content that Japanese people encounter every day, complete with native-checked explanations and cultural insight.



Gakuu
can be used by a wide range of people, from beginner to advanced level learners. That said, since we use real-world examples of Japanese, it might be a little frightening for those who have never touched the language before. We do explain everything as simply as possible and make it fun, but for absolute beginners, Gakuu works best when combined with a basic Japanese textbook.

If you’d like to start learning Japanese, we can help recommend some good courses to get you started – just drop us a quick email! You can also browse the beginner content on Gakuu. Pre-intermediate or higher level students – you can just plunge right into the content!

- quote -
The ukulele, sometimes abbreviated to uke,
is a member of the lute family of instruments; it generally employs four nylon or gut strings or four courses of strings.

The ukulele originated in the 19th century as a Hawaiian interpretation of the machete, a small guitar-like instrument related to the cavaquinho, timple, braguinha and the rajão, taken to Hawaii by Portuguese immigrants, many from the Macaronesian Islands. It gained great popularity elsewhere in the United States during the early 20th century, and from there spread internationally.

The tone and volume of the instrument varies with size and construction. Ukuleles commonly come in four sizes: soprano, concert, tenor, and baritone.

- - - Japan
ウケレレ
The ukulele came to Japan in 1929 after Hawaiian-born Yukihiko Haida returned to the country upon his father's death and introduced the instrument. Haida and his brother Katsuhiko formed the Moana Glee Club, enjoying rapid success in an environment of growing enthusiasm for Western popular music, particularly Hawaiian and jazz. During World War II, authorities banned most Western music, but fans and players kept it alive in secret, and it resumed popularity after the war. In 1959, Haida founded the Nihon Ukulele Association. Today, Japan is considered a second home for Hawaiian musicians and ukulele virtuosos.
