Okay, I need to get back to tracking.
I was really successful with my sorting of Kanji into sound groups earlier this year, and I think one main reason for that is because I simply just kept track of how many Kanji I had sorted each day.
I knew that I had to sort 1,553 total unsorted Kanji, and seeing the progress I was making every day was very motivating and kept me focused.
I need to do this now for Japanese vocabulary.
So according to the data I’m using, here are the number of vocabulary words in each JLPT level:
N5 = 801
N4 = 1191; 1992 cumulative
N3 = 1907; 3899 cumulative
N2 = 2648; 6547 cumulative
N1 = 3246; 9793 cumulative
My goal for now is to just finish up to N3, for a total of about 4000 Japanese words.
Let’s go!
