Now for the S's - Can you get the pattern?

HOW TO WRITE IT
[Follow the red strokes from left to right]

ROMAJI - sa
SOUND - [as in SOlitude]

MEMORY: It looks like a person who sits in SOlitude

EXAMPLES: How do you say them?
 - This means 'sake' - (watch the pronunciation)
- This means 'morning'
- This means 'this morning'
- This means 'umbrella'

If you understand Hiragana's pattern, I believe you have mastered the hardest part

Hmm, this is really helpfull, but i have a question. De Ka in 'umbrella', or gasa, shouldn't it have two little strokes above it? To make it sound like 'Ga'?

Umbrella is かさ "kasa" not "gasa." But yes, "ga" needs the two strokes: が
