@DatSaphNeko@GuardianOfPunda My honest reccomendation would be to get a dedicated kanji textbook, and one step further, a dedicated kanji calligraphy textbook/note. Try a look at a few textbooks from this link

@GuardianOfPunda@DatSaphNeko easier in terms of; if u know the meaning of 「木」then u can know that whatever 「柱」is, its either made of wood or pertaining something of wood, so u can say u know half of what it means, once u nail wirting the basics, its a breeze the reading part is the hard part
@GuardianOfPunda@DatSaphNeko so for example, in basic japanese u’ll learn 「木」(wood) and「主」(some sort of authoritative figure), when u start doing intermediate kanji, u’ll see 「柱」(pillar) which is combined pair of 2 kanjis, literal “main/supporting wood”, so tl;dr basics will make the rest “easier”.
@DatSaphNeko oh man this is just the tip of the iceberg, like the first few inches of an iceberg the size of a cargo ship, I’ve been in jp for amost 8yrs and even then I still dont remember all counting derivatives, heck even some of my japanese friends get the counting sytem wrong at times
