how many books did you guys finish in 2018?

>>20398597
3 lns started actively reading less than a month ago tho

anyone ever start typing japanese but you didn't turn japanese input on and it looks really fucking weird in wypipo letters because you've never even seen these words without moon runes?

>>20398694
no because here in djt i get immersed in romanji every day
naze romanji wakaranai no

Ezra Pound on kana.

>>20398716
how shit is he at japanese if he thinks you need 24 symbols to represent 5 vowels and 14 consonants

>>20398743
ezra pound didn't speak japanese

he didn't speak chinese either yet his translations of chinese poetry are very well regarded which is kind of hilarious actually

What are you guys' thoughts on an autistic Japanese xp grinder like this?

>>20398819
that tons of time tracking apps already exist with and without useless gamification
make one that automatically counts every second you fuck with it so that you can see the minutes youve wasted logging this shit add up

>>20398832
>useless gamification
how also are you supposed to motivated autists?

>>20398840
they might be beyond help
well on second thought its less harmful than anki to those people
carry on

I've been living in Japan for 16 months and I don't know a lick of Japanese
Yes, I am human trash

>>20398852
well youre in the right place we dont think highly of people who actually learn japanese here
how would you be able to argue about learning methods if you did

>find manga more compelling than anything else in the world
>reading it doesn't teach you anything but vocab and a tiny bit of accent nonsense, MAYBE
>not good enough at nihongo to idly read them yet
life is pain

>>20398840
They’re probably watching porn, playing gacha video games, consuming ready-to-eat salty sugary garbage and so on. They ought to unfuck their dopamine fried brain instead of trying to work around it

>>20398950
Your brain is fully formed by 25 but okay.

>>20398950
they can solve all of their problems with small changes
read douzinsi in the original nihongo
waste money on gacha in the original nihongo
eat keeki with ohasi in the original nihongo
>>20398956
ok you actually found a dumber response so congratulations

Can someone check this sentence for me?
私は日本に行きたいから日本にことがない
trying to say I want to go to japan because I've never been there.

Very noob here can pls help

I read genki textbook and for example sentence it say

これは誰のカバンですか

can I also say

このカバンは誰のですか

and make grammatical sense. or this wrong?

>>20398973
youve got the cause and effect flipped with から
just do something like 日本に初めて行きたい
>>20398979
looks acceptable to me

>>20398991
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa. I keep getting mixed up with that. Thanks anon senpai. I was trying to use kara in this final speech to show that I know how to use it.

nice op

>>20398813
now this is how you ruin comedy

>>20399046
>implying its not funnier

nah dude that clip is literally what it looks like to translate cross channel

exactly how ftw is cross channel anyway

>>20398716
The moron does realize English uses nearly a hundred symbols in its written language. A-Z, a-z, (maybe add cursive), 0-9, special symbols, and technically emojis.

>>20398606
how many words did you know?

>>20399120
its extreamly ftw

but you gotta be in tune with the world of 15-20+ years ago or its prolly lost on you on all but the surface level

>>20399147
thats asking a lot im not in tune with any time period but at least i was alive 20+ years ago thats more than some of you
oh well gambarimasyoune

its ok its still really good its most simple joy is just the read itself

>>20399141
>maybe add cursive
are you melanin enriched?

>>20399196
>katakana is so hard japan should use romanji
>cursive is exactly the same as print
djeet is a wonder

>>20399196
No, just that cursive is dying out. I don't think US schools teach it anymore. However, you would add it just like we say hiragana and katakana are separate despite both representing the same sounds.

Nuke failure to launch.

someone should show nuke that book that says constantly alternating between two languages is counterproductive
he thinks he gets how to learn japanese but hes still streaming

>>20399229
did i really write the matt cringe post that long ago already

time flies

>>20399259
i forgot it calls classroom drilling valuable w
we all make mistakes its got part of it right

>>20399219
Japanese has cursive too.

>>20399287
thats just sloppy handwriting unless youre talking about ancient shit
there is more than one form of english cursive if were going back in history

>>20399286
idk why youre on your high horse there

what is life if not one long but actually really short in the grand scheme of things class

we all know by this point that there's cool japanese rap but is there cool japanese pop punk or ska

>>20399296
you can take the word classroom out of that sentence and its just as valid
whats high horse about we all make mistakes i dont think everything ive said is right
if youre going to get existential just say something short and sweet like living is just dying slowly

i found some cool toho jazz and bossa nova so i have no doubts

>>20399311
if pop punk and ska is what youre after check this out

>>20399314
if you dont go to class you aint got no class

>>20399334
>友達とＦＵＣＫＩＴＵＰ
this is insanely sick

>>20399334
now thats fuckin sick mood

what classes you takin practicin what you preachin

>>20399334
これは日本

How do you know whether たら means if or when? None of these 1000+ words essays trying to explain this particle says anything about it.
>島に着いたらおれに少し時間をくれないか
How would you know whether or not this is a case of the speaker leaving out もし or if he means after you arrive at the 島?

>>20399240
Did you miss the complaint earlier that Nuke wasn't explaining what he's reviewing. Seems Nuke already reviews in Japanese, he just switches to English if he's talking to the stream audience.

He does those other streams where he shuts off his mic and just reads Japanese books with audio playing. Anons here complained about that as well.

DJTs gonna BJTch no matter.

>>20399468
>he just switches to English if he's talking to the stream audience.
and this is a waste of his time that breaks his focus
>just reads Japanese books with audio playing.
this is okay
>Anons here complained about that as well.
you havent been in the human race very long have you
no shit someone is going to complain no matter what you do
thats why im not complaining im just saying what he should do for his own good not for the benefit of someone at an even lower level than him

>>20399465
If you know the condition will be fulfilled then its when. If the condition's fulfillment is ambiguous then its when. Context will tell you if the condition is known to be fulfilled.

>>20399485
*If the condition's fulfillment is ambiguous then its if

>>20399465

these kind of textless responses are condescending and unhelpful
speak your mind
