Japanese can still be little confusing, especially when it comes to words that seem super alike. Examples of this are words like Kara and Node, or Onegai and Kudasai. We figured we would clear those up for you.

I have seen so many fluid Japanese learners try to speak Japanese just a little too quickly. This is just one of those things that makes life so much harder.
