Let's read a lot and improve your Japanese level

what have you discovered about nihongo lately anontachi

>>20630352

watashi ha gei

>>20630335
>using kanji in other places but not on "にほんご" at the top
What the fuck.

>>20630400
its meant to be read in a bit quirky and go-happy fashion, thats why its written in hiragana

you dont write everything in kanji just because you can, if you actually read something instead of doing anki decks, you would know this

I finally tried reading some raw manga and immediately get stumped on what seems like a simple thing. What is the second kanji here? I think I recognize some of the radicals like 又 and 冂, but I can't find anything that makes up that one, and the ones that come to mind make no sense there.

How do I start reading? I want to try the Shield Hero LNs but don't know how to start.

>>20630946
This is what I’m trying to do. I tried just doing anime with Japanese subs, and it was amazing for grammar, context, parsing etc, but for nuancless grammar (esp nouns) it was ridiculously inefficient, and with a vocabulary of like 500, i could only understand like 5% of the sentences without using a dictionary which made it not very leisurely at all.

>>20631580
have u considered just doing a quick and easy 10000 hours with eng subs for max comprehension and max win ?

it's not meant to be leisure it's study.

also watch childrens shows not anime

>>20630479
Well your first problem is that you don't understand that manga isn't reading.

>>20631600
Yeah, unfortunately I don’t naturally pick up on what’s being said in Japanese and I wind up zoning it out and just reading the subs. So because it does take effort some effort to listen, I might as well do something more effective.
Plus when I DO hear something i+1 the English sub never translates it correctly, ever.
Nigongo no Mori has enough content, and it’s geared at JSL so it’s gentle enough, but not literal babby tier contrived shit, In a couple weeks I’ll see how much (if at all) anki for recognition helped, and in the mean time I’ll be using NnM for watching/ listening.

>>20631719
It is still good practice before you move on to more important things.

I’m not against studying, I study all day, what I’m saying is that if getting basic recognition for simple vocabulary first actually prevents using a dictionary every sentence, it’d make watching anime (even) more enjoyable, why shoudnt I try to see if that works or not?
I read a blogpost and a Chinese guy claimed to do anki core (just aiming for vague recognition nothing else) before reading, and said 3k vocabulary was ideal. I’m gonna do nayr’s 5k (has audio, an example sentence, pretty bad sentence translations but has all the dictionary entries as well) and see how often I need to use the dictionary when I try to watch anime after 1k,2k etc cards.

>>20631796
パナか・・

>>20631734
Yeah i do actually, I’m probably going to keep watching it even after watching anime becomes comfy just because i feel the need to watch all their Japanese videos. If it don’t it would feel like dropping a book half way through for some reason.

at least you got somethin right cause thats all anki can give you

as long as you watchin anime and readin you got a chance but you should be doin it all the time not at checkpoints for a fuckin self test

>>20631882
im sayin you make it sound like after each test youre goin back to anki grind and no input
if you consume some compellin content outside the tests then your tests arent worth much since you ruined them by actually learnin some nihongo
if you dont consume some compellin content then your tests are more legit but also what are you doin to yourself
tests arent related to the question of if youre gonna make it which is my real concern

Is there any particular reason 附 is listed as a jōyō kanj? It means and looks the same as 付, and on jisho at least it lists it as an alternate kanji in every word, never the main kanji

>>20631909
I’ve been watching nihongo no mori for a little while, it’s really comfy hearing a Japanese person’s view on the difference between two similar grammar points, it almost feels like cheating for nuance, but I haven’t been learning new vocab. There’s other ways that it would confound testing Japanese comprehension, but on a metric like dictionary lookups per sentence or minute, I’m not too worried.
I would note the other important resources I’ve used before because although NnM hasn’t taught me new grammar vocab, I have learned grammar from other sources and so another person who didn’t already learn them as well would need to look it up when they came across it in an anime.

starwoods spaceschool lmao

btw theres nothin wrong w. a nihongono mori

ill be here waitin for the day each of you realizes they wasted their time

How long would it take an 18 year old with 3-4 hours a day to be able to read most manga or watch most anime? I know learning paces are different so give a range if possible

how long would it take djt to stop askin dumb meaningless questions and learn fuckin nihongo
it depends on a hundred variables and no one fuckin knows
if theyre fluent they only know approx how long it took them with their own specific path that was probably inconsistent as fuck cause they had to find their own way
if they arent fluent they only can parrot what patreon posers told them
and if theyre postin in djt they aint fluent

>>20632625
To read comfortably you want around N2 or N1 (N1 is the hardest/most proficient, N5 is the least).

If you did 15 hours a week (2ish a day), then this chart says 10 months. If you're consistantly working hard 3-4 hours a day, maybe like 5 to 7 months til reading isn't a pain

>>20632689
No image, whoops. There was a better chart somewhere on how to allocate your time based on how much you have, but I can't find it

If you're still here, they probably spell it without kanji the first time for emphasis. Sometimes words will be written specifically without kanji or with katakana instead to indicate the character emphasized the word when they spoke/thought aloud, basially.

What are some good shows for me to watch with japanese subtitles? I just wanna take in the language and maybe learn some stuff through context

>>20633362
Also it should be in japanese itself if that wasnt clear enough in my first comment

why not read visual novels instead

>>20633396
I just watched a vid saying that tv throws so much at you at once that you give up on actually translating it and just take it in, learning small stuff along the way. Also, im a complete beginner still trying to memorize the kana, so when I get bored ill just watch tv instead for now. Once I can read a little better ill dip into visual novels.

>tfw it took me more than two days to learn hiragana and katakana
I'm not gonna make it.

>>20633456

Anyone who is shit at listening should strongly consider getting Japanese netflix through a VPN or something, literally everything there is subtitled, including shows I've otherwise never seen JP subs for, and you don't have to re-time everything yourself 3 times an episode.

If somebody wanted to be cool and rip all the subs, you can do it with a browser extension like subadub, but you're going to be sitting around for a while loading up every episode and hitting the "download srt" button.

I want to start learning Japanese again, but have some questions:

>How long should I study a day?
>Do you think learning Hiragana and Katakana in a week is reasonable? I heard some people say you can do it in less than a week.
>In a year, how much Japanese did you learn?

>>20634728
With 4 hours of study a day, living in a Japanese speaking community, you would be passable in speaking, reading and writing well within a year. You should study as long and as often as you can mentally and physically tolerate.

>>20634728
>>How long should I study a day?
It's up to you but I'd recommend at leas an hour
>>Do you think learning Hiragana and Katakana in a week is reasonable? I heard some people say you can do it in less than a week.
I learned hiragana in a week and ignored katakana and just learned as I went
>>In a year, how much Japanese did you learn?
I'm at 3 months in now 1-4 hours per day and I can read NHK easy pretty comfortably. I guess at 1 year I should reach my own goal of being able to play all the nip games in the original language.

>>20634890
Have you found katakana useful so far? Or is it just not that important?

>>20634881
I'll try my hardest.

>>20634906
Yeah, it's useful but it's not necessary for starting.
For the first month I had this in a tab until I learned them all.
http://www.lingographics.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/05/lingographics-hiragana-katakana-chart-1.png

>>20634562
why dont you rip the shows yourself and share with everyone?

>>20634917
I'll try that method then, anon. Did you jump into grammar after hiragana?

>>20634728
>Do you think learning Hiragana and Katakana in a week is reasonable? I heard some people say you can do it in less than a week.
The thing is you don't need to be perfect to move on. To actually read it as fast as the English alphabet you're gonna need more than a single week. Just spend like a day or 2 on it and move on. Just keep the hiragana table somewhere close to you. And learn the katakana somewhere in between.

>In a year, how much Japanese did you learn?
In the first 3 years I learned jack shit, not knowing what I was doing, messing around in anki, constantly giving up and picking it up again. Then I said fuck it and I just started reading what I wanted to read all along but "saved for when I was better at Japanese", then I started seeing massive gains. It's been 7 months or so since that.

tl;dr just read

>>20634956
Because when you're watching through a proxy it takes 20 seconds to load up a new episode. If I lived in Japan or had any coding knowledge to make an auto srt ripper I'd give it a shot, but otherwise it'd take me an hour just to get the subs for one show.

>>20634958
Yeah, grammar with tae kim and listening to nihongo dojo during commutes and I started doing anki reps with the 2k/6k deck until I reached like 400 words seen and then I added reading.

>>20634562
Really? I heard that their subs aren't all that reliable and often don't reflect what is being said.

>>20634984
I haven't noticed any errors so far after watching half a dozen shows or so, meanwhile a good proportion of the stuff you'll find on kitsunekko has typos.

>>20634965
What did you read during that time? Any suggestions? Did you just look up what words meant if you didn't know them and learn from there?

>>20634967
I'll read Tae Kim then. Did you take notes and what not?

>>20634999
Nah, I just reread if I forgot something.
Making notes is useful though if you're kind of a person that learns well with that method.

Everybody learns a bit differently so take all advice with a grain of salt and try to find what works for you.
Some people can't stand anki reps and rather just look up more words manually while reading, some people like to make their own notes, etc.

>>20634999
Things like Kino no tabi and various isekai WNs. In the beginning I would also still read NHK easy during commutes.

>words meant if you didn't know them and learn from there?
Pretty much. You look up stuff you don't know. both grammar and words. But you have to find a balance. If you look up too much it will be slow and painful, if you look up to little you won't learn anything.

I mostly read WNs since it's easy to copy and paste text into a dictionary. You don't have to mess around with OCR tools or text hookers. But that's your choice.

Whether or you make anki cards of those words is your choice. Maybe they help you learn faster or maybe they don't. I don't know. Personally I can't be bothered. The words you need the most are so common you don't need to make cards for them, you'll remember them fast enough just by reading. And uncommon words aren't common enough to waste my time making and reviewing cards. That's the logic I use to justify my laziness. Experiment and do what works for you.

>I'll read Tae Kim then. Did you take notes and what not?
Tae Kim is short and concise. It's basically already in note form. If you want to search back for something you just use the search bar.

In English I could say "I like girls with large breasts".
女子の大きいおっぱいが好きです doesn't really work, because isn't that saying that I like the large breasts of women, and not specifically women that possess/own large breasts?

Is there a particle I should be using for this, or a verb like 備わる in some way maybe?

for the past few days i've been lurking like "why is djt so bad wtf" and it just hit me that the resolutioners haven't left yet

>>20637066
Because your mother doesn't love you

>>20637066
because you touch yourself at night

>>20637107
when there are less beginner questions there are more uppercase posts whinin that djt is trash cause no ones havin in depth conversations about the meaning of out of context lines of dialogue
shittiness in djt is a constant

>>20637132
So is jamal-
oh...

is jamal what say it to my face bitch

i mean yeah it's always shit but it's usually at least entertaining

watching people talk about tricks to remember the kana and arguing about incredibly common words is just depressing

i think hes sayin youre also a constant and thats why djt is shitty

>>20637152
Were you even here half a year ago when RTK was the hot topic?

nah i hardly post

trust me i couldnt make djt this shit if i didnt have yall here

alright while i'm here i might as well make djt the entertaining kind of shitty

I limit myself by setting a 1-minute cooldown-time whenever I have to look something up, does wonders. Immersion becomes a smoother experience, you are forced to remember more and have to prioritize what to look up.

There's no concenses here on that, most will just say start reading, but everyone learns dfferently and nobody is you. Just stay busy absorbing whatever you can.

i made it the hot topic by destroying everyone in arguments about it so the point they couldn't help but respond in a feeble attempt to salvage their egos, even though i turned out to be wrong. good times.

i mean if ur dumb enough to argue about rtk that counts as self owning first and foremost

>>20639883
whatre you doin with your nihongo these days

>>20639911
i never bothered learning japanese after i realized i wasted 3 months on not learning japanese.

>>20639918
i was askin about the real you not the shallow bait identity

ways that dont work
rtgay
flashtarding

ways that work
10000 hours of eng subbed anime and just doing whatever u want after

>>20639927
ok real talk, RTK genuinely took a lot out of me and since then i only read a little bit and haven't even finished a single vn. i've reread a few grammar guides and watched some dolly videos. i've been so lazy that i've only gotten through like 1k word in anki. i think sometime soon i'll force myself to do what i should have done back then and just start reading every day but it's tough because i have to force myself to do it and i have PTSD from forcing myself through RTK.

RTK is no joke. spending multiple, intense hours every day on not learning japanese could have lingering effects on your motivation if you're not disciplined.

>>20639945
the answer as always is porn, time to crack open the sadpanda

>>20639945
similar thing happened to me and i stagnated for months after the months of already wastin time
i tried shitty vns and felt a bit of temporary motivation and got burnt out from not giving a shit about the plot
i stopped worryin about good shit bein hard and been havin a good ride readin shit i actually want to keep readin even if im missin some shit
so dont force yourself to read every day like its a grind just force yourself to try out some shit that actually looks good to you and see how it goes until you find somethin thats enjoyable

its all about one thing

How do I get Japanese characters to display correctly on Chrome?

characters look like complete ass on chrome for me too, albeit more thin than thick.

i'm almost at the end of the first ln volume of haruhi and i have to say: it's a lot better revisiting it as an adult (minus the pointless fanservice scenes).

Kanji doesn't bother me, neither does grammar. What bothers me is the katakana in between all the kanji, sometimes there's just so much of it that it makes a sentence looks like a scrambled mess which makes you wish there was more kanji.

>ようこそ無礼者よ。貴様らを滅ぼしてくれものが俺だ
this doesn't look right

>>20639388
Just wait until you get to Ryo. Actually that's the only hard thing to pronounce your probably overthinking it. Read along while listening

>>20637301
If you had to look up those words you should being using a pop up dictionary. Stop reading manga or other things you can't scan.

>>20641497
I know that feel, you get used to it but it still sucks.
I would love if they just made kanji for all the various suffixes too.

>>20641535
I'm still starting out so the lack of spacing is confusing as fuck when there's too much Katakana, it's hard to tell where a word ends and when another begins. Ironically enough a lot of beginner shit opts out using kanji which is why it can get confusing.

>>20641544
Yeah, this is why most people find kanji + furigana much easier to read than just plain hiragana

>>20640339
Switch your system to nippongo. The only sureway to get rid of filthy chink字.
