How about learning the pronouns:
I
you
he
she
And the verbs
to go
to come
to have
to eat
to drink
And some nouns
Tokyo
Osaka
apple
water
And then combine them to make sentences
I go to Tokyo
You eat an apple
He drinks water
She has an apple
He comes from Tokyo
I go from Tokyo to Osaka
If you want help with translating, feel free to ask. I don’t know if you can read hiragana / katakana
