Learn Japanese Culture: “Nurie” (Coloring)
In Japan, coloring is called “Nurie” (塗り絵). It is a beloved activity for both children and adults
to develop concentration and artistic sense. Our sheets are designed to help you master Japanese characters
while having fun.
How to Use This Sheet for Japanese Learning
- Read the Katakana: The word for Latvia is written as “ラトビア” (Ra-to-bi-a). Try to trace the strokes of the characters.
- Katakana Stroke Order: Japanese characters have a specific stroke order. Focus on the sharp lines of ‘ラ’ and ‘ト’.
- Identify the Colors: Use the reference flag in the top right corner. The deep red is a unique shade often called “Latvian Red.”
Educational Benefit
Combining visual symbols (flags) with linguistic characters (Katakana) creates a powerful mnemonic link,
making it easier for beginners to memorize new Japanese vocabulary while learning about international geography.
