I just want someone, anyone, to answer a few questions I have (and probably will continue to ask here).

Question one: How to properly write な, I now how to do the "t" looking part, but I have doubts on the order of the "d" and"`" parts. I have a book that says the little line ` goes before the d, then I have a game that says the d goes before the `....so anyone know the right way? sweatdrop

Question two: How do you use これ/kore(my game says it means "this"), and それ/sore(that) in a real sentence? Is it similar to how somebody would use "this" and "that" in English, or not?
So thank you to anyone that helps me understand this little things, the help is very much appreciated. heart

Here's a link with stroke order information: http://www.imabi.net/l2kana.htm though I don't know if it's the 'correct' way. To be honest, I don't worry about stroke order that much as long as it's readable lol

For これ and それ:
これ This (near me)
それ That (near you)
あれ That (over there)

Would anyone know of a nursery rhyme or a short story in Japanese? I would like to see if I can practice reading Japanese, at least something maybe a little simple. Suggestions are appreciated. 4laugh

I think just as long! I started out while I was still in grade school. The only reason I'm still a beginner...mainly life and school getting in the way of passions and dreams. sweatdrop

That sucks D: Damn real life and school lol
My school offered Japanese so I could always take classes, and my uni does too so if I didn't want to just self-study I could always study that way. Good thing too, or I probably be wouldn't be where I am now with my Japanese lol
