The last time I picked up a language in a hurry was when I was a teen.
It took me all of 7 days to learn the Telugu alphabet. For context, this is what that looked like:

I hope to re-create this feat, giving myself 30 days to learn the Hiragana alphabet.
It certainly helps that the first set of syllables is called Gojūon-zu, which literally means table of 50 sounds – doesn’t that sound musical ?

Wish me luck and speed.
