I’m doing the I Come in Peace module in Japanese 1 and it keeps telling me I’m wrong because I’m typing out the words in the Latin alphabet and not in hiragana, but I can’t type in hiragana… and it seems to have started requiring it about halfway through the module? What have people done to cope with this? Just have a list of hiragana up in another window and slowly copy paste?
