Five minutes a day beats a Sunday guilt session
Five minutes a day is not a slogan. It's the only dose most adults can keep.
A Sunday two-hour cram feels productive and evaporates by Wednesday. A tiny daily loop — one particle, one sentence, out loud once — is still there on Friday. Your brain likes repetition more than heroics.
Set a timer. When it ends, stop even if you're "on a roll." Stopping on purpose is what makes tomorrow easy. Apps that punish a missed day are training guilt, not Japanese.
Practice this in five minutes, not another Anki deck.
Nori is a beginner Japanese app with tiny grammar quizzes and a waitlist before launch.
If you only have a commute, that's the classroom. One quiz. No unit exam.
Nori is built around that dose: question, answer, done. Not because longer study is bad — because most people quit when study becomes a second job.
Five minutes a day of Japanese beats a two-hour Sunday crash. One particle, one sentence, stop. Consistency is a small loop, not a streak badge.
