Personally so far and my problem is connecting sentances and knowing when to use the which particle, this mainly being for like... complex sentances.

Also Expanding my vocabulary in general.

and Kanji usage and pronounciation.

like「本」...

When used in the surname「山本」it says "moto", however when used in 「日本」it reads "hon". It can be quite confusing at times.

we will have to remeber that kanji have 2 type of reading the "un-yomi" and the "kon-yomi". There is no specific rules as to which of the reading will be used when the kanji is used , so that's also very hard. And there are thousands of kanji and each of this kanji has a different way to them, so we will just have to practice more and more and more
