What are the most important things to learn in Japanese?

You don’t need て/に/を/は/が at first.It’s very difficult to use.

Enumerating subject, object and verb make it sense.

わたしは日本語を学ぶ(I study Japanese) is correct, but わたし　日本語　学ぶ have the almost same meaning.

The te-form. It's very important as you can use it for many expressions. I recommend you master it including exceptions.

Most important things to learn languages is “try to use a language”
It is not only Japanese but also another languages.
I don’t think grammar is not important.

@Jazimine
Hey,miss?

It's wonderful of you to remember Japanese hiragana and katakana.
So what you go is getting ability how to read Japanese letters .
Next kanjis yeah.

I suggest starting simple basic kanjis first to remember with writing based on daily lives like numbers ,date,matters as useful stuff like trees ,that's the easiest kanji to explain to foreigners.

木(Ki き) a tree 🌴
枝(Eda えだ) brunch

See that left part.
It's used as 木　as same as what's parted just.

@Kazuishida I know 1-9 and Monster and that's about it.... What would be best to start with. Should I keep learning my numbers and then maybe move to nature and dates?

Monster? 怪物？

I suggest date Sunday to Saturday ,matters on the Earth like stone,mountain,gender,family,and so on with also writing for practicing next.

@Jazimine
Yeah, simpler kanjis that can be written easily have been taught since elementary schools .
So step by step gradually as same as Japanese do, it's a way better to start.

Japanese often use Japonica learning notes to write kanjis.

@maryjap what things will I see the most? Maybe if I have a list I can write them down :) I remember when I first started learning Korean, it didn't have any complicated letters or syllables but I used to go to h&m and read the care tags on jeans and once I learned the word order it started to make sense. and then I'd go and read the Japanese just to see how much I could read and I could read everything but Kanji. But now that I've mastered the more simplistic writing I want to work on definitions and the more complicated writing to help me better understand Japanese. I've always been fascinated by Asian culture in general. Ive learned alot about the history of Samurai and emperor's. Chinese dynasties were also among my favorite. So after I'm done with Japanese I'll be moving on to Mandarin and Hindi. I study a lot of religions. I like the thoughts involved with Buddhism and Islam. My favorite one I've learned so far has to be Hinduism. I think the idea behind karma overall makes people alot friendlier. And what other reason to love Japan more than good food and nice people? not to mention the fact that from what I've seen, y'all are a lot cleaner than we are lol. People don't care in US.
