Day VIII: コウノトリの恩返し 
Listened to today’s folktale, from Kagoshima prefecture!
(The same story as @polv !)
I’m finding this a difficult aspect of this challenge too. Even though what I’m listening to are usually only about 1-6 mins long, it feels like a really long time, I have to keep telling myself not to do the washing up or whatever while listening, just concentrate on listening. But it’s really difficult to keep on track when after about the second sentence I get completely lost.
Also having a hard time judging any form of progress. Not expecting like super results after a week but I don’t really feel like I’ve learnt much of anything so far.
It’s definitely a lot harder. When reading きょう I know that きょう is きょう - but hearing it, it’s like am I sure it was きょう? Or was it ぎょう? Might have even been ひょう…
Could just be that the hurdle for even basic listening comprehension is a whole lot bigger than the reading one, still, it’s pretty demotivating.
Gonna try my best to keep listening everyday anyways, but I might try a few different approaches and see what works best.
