Talk:Memorizing the Hiragana/The Vowels

Oh No! Please tell me this is a joke.... I am aghast and in complete shock at this page! I can't think of a worse way to teach hiragana. あ is for the A in Astronaut???? Are you kidding??????!!!!! あ should be pronounced more like the O in Offer. This is completely wrong! In fact, not even one kana is correct on this page. Everything is wrong. I think it's better to remove all this section than to post something this wrong. Newtonsfig (discuss • contribs) 06:17, 28 March 2014 (UTC)
 * I (a Japanese native) fully agree to above comment by Newtonsfig. For example, 「え」 is pronounced [e] (or like [ei]), while E in Eagle is a long vowel [i:]. This book should be demoted to 'Partly finished' status at least.--124.25.220.224 (discuss) 09:47, 17 November 2014 (UTC)
