Is eating with chopsticks part of the ajatt experience as well? I want to make sure I follow every sacrament of our lord Matt so one day I’ll reap the blessings of the perfect tokyo pitch accent I’m very scared of the kansai intonation and pray every night it won’t affect me

i just finished reading my THIRD manga volume of the day (the most raw manga i've read in one day) and i realized something...
i like manga way more than LN's. like way more.
i've read three LN's so far and although they were cool, manga's just suck me in and entertain me far more. and before that annoying "manga isn't reading" retard shows up, i farmed over 200 new words into my word bank today (not anki, details later), reviewed a bunch of grammar i was shakey in, and encountered 30+ words i've recently learned so you can suck my ass, i was obviously reading.

anyway the message i want to send is, do what YOU want to do in japanese and learn from that. don't listen to some loser on DJT (who probably doesn't know japanese) that claims you can't get good at japanese without using X medium. they can all suck it.

as for me, i'm sticking to manga, anime with j-subs, and videogames (DS, 3DS, PSVita, PSP) because that's what i fuckin like. and i didn't start learning japanese to impress some socially retarded gatekeepers on the web. i started learning so i could enjoy the things that i WANTED to enjoy in the language. and you should to.
/end

I'm glad he's doing okay.

Why does every /djt/ start with someone blogging?

Naturally. You've got to immerse yourself in the Japanese culture. If you fool yourself into thinking you're Japanese you will quickly become Japanese.

Learned the kana and about to start a Japanese class in uni for the summer. Professor seems to be from Japan and "it's [her] pleasure to help you learn Japanese." I'm planning on immersing and learning some kanji on my free time while learning the genki shit on the side. Not really trying to work for the grade, just to remember vocab. I'll be reading and using time effectively to learn some context. What do you guys suggest? Should I drop the class?

>8. Food: Japanese only
>The Japanese restaurants I know of are expensive. Maybe you can visit them only once in a while. You could also visit Japanese food shops, buy the ingredients, and cook your own food. You don’t know how to use the ingredients? Just ask the shopkeepers (or your friends) about what to cook.

>Also, whatever kind of food you eat, eat it with chopsticks. I started using only chopsticks years before going to Japan. Don’t be intimidated, they aren’t hard to use. Plus, you can almost eat anything solid with chopsticks: rice, cake, ice-cream. So use them! Again, you may earn the ridicule of those around you, but just grin and bear it. Since moving to Japan, it’s dawned on me that the chopsticks thing wasn’t just a psychological tool and it wasn’t just for getting attention. It really is a social skill; outside of Japan, they may be rare, but in Japan everything comes with chopsticks; you need to know how to use them.

>>21468260
Yes. Also be sure to dust all your rice with asbestos-contaminated talc so you develop stomach cancer and die at 35. It's the Japanese way of life.

I'm so happy. Months ago it was so hard to read a shounen that I dropped it, then I dragged myself through over 70 chapters of some story on syosetu and other stuff and now it's easy and I'm so happy
Still a long way to go, but I felt like I actually made progress
And whoever reads this, you can do it! :D

Going back and re-reading something you struggled with before can be really motivating.

I recently re-read volume one of Overlord and, while there were still some bits I struggled with, it was so much easier this time. The first time I felt like I was just guessing my way through most of the novel and decided not to read the second volume because my comprehension was just so poor and and it was so difficult for me to follow.

Planning to start volume 2 today.

There's a special place in hell waiting for Matt.

Any idea what 三角や四角の文字 means in these two sentences?

>>21468782
letters that are triangle and square shaped?

>>21468776
That's Matt?

>>21468291
Only the most deranged idiots would think reading VNs is required to learn Japanese.

>>21468496
I mean 15 years ago most people couldnt hold chopsticks without breaking their fingers in the process in the west. This has somehow drastically changed in my perception, but it might just be a local phenomenon here.

Do you see people struggling with chopsticks where you live?

>>21468725

>>21468807
That's Khatz, not Matt.

僕漫画読むの凄い好きなんですよ。漫画って小説よりライトに楽しめるじゃあないですか。

>>21468807
nah thats classic khatz autism. you can tell because it mentions friends coming over, which would never happen in any story Matt tells.

>>21468803
Well, yeah. But what does that mean? There is no context in the book that tell what those letters could be. And I can't find anyting meaningful using google.

>>21468553
Report back and tell us if it was just as hard as vol 1 read one or if the whole thing got easier

>>21468901
I don't know about your context, but maybe there's something written in letters like these and the protagonist can't read them himself. Like alien letters or something.

Why is my fucking anki stuck on this? Is anyone else unable to open their shit? It worked like 2 hours ago what the hell

>>21468725
I mean, honestly it's the other people that sperged out.
Imagine being upset that the person you forced to watch a movie isn't interested in said movie.

How is fucking daiweeb down every other day. Their hosting is absolute trash and the whole site is shady as fuck offering zero information to who is behind any of this, it's certainly not a community effort site but someones weird business venture for ad money. But even then their target audience is just so small how does it even make any sense.

>>21468913
For me, it says that AnkiWeb is under maintenance

>>21468905
Not really. The MC is describing a feeling, so the 三角や四角の文字 part has to be metaphorical. I'm near the end of the book now and these two sentences appear in the first chapter, but it's driving me mad that I don't get what she's saying.

>>21468914
But he agreed to watch the movie, was there with them, and then decided to ignore the movie. No way is he gonna pay attention to both his japanese book and the english movie. His friends sincerely wanted to do something together, and he bailed out when he was already there. Although I doubt any of this happened anyway since someone apologizing for something like this months later seems retarded.

>>21468935
>Although I doubt any of this happened anyway since someone apologizing for something like this months later seems retarded.
Maybe it was the cause of a falling out and they stopped talking to each other over it. In that case it would make sense for at least one side to apologise.

Fair enough, but this guy was the asshole and should have been apologizing. Hes taking his friends for granted and will probably lose them at this rate.

Watching some Japanese dubs of Western movies on Netflix. It pisses me of that the Japanese subtitles don't actually correspond to the lines in the films, it's like they use different translations for dub and subtitle.

Why does he talk like a fucking anime character all the time? The Japanese posters in the thread are even making fun of him:
>>>/int/106600870
Anime cards, not even once.

Also
>zoomer
>grew up in a fatherless household
His narcissistic personality is starting to make sense now. Makes sense that someone with no male role model would end up being a Cluster B (typically much more prevalent among women) freak.

>>21469204
Is it QM making use of his LOTG mined cards?

whoda thunk hed be the poster child for the thing i always say which is dont talk like the anime

tho he only talks like a anime for 1 line at a time and none of the lines go together in his posts lmao

>>21469302
>are even making fun of him
you don't really seem to understand the post
he says his language use is dirty after being insulted
and asks if it's the german flag always throwing insulting language around

haha lets make fun of a guy actively trying to improve because he doesn't have great japanese :)

very funny and very cool

now this guy is ready for scanlation

>>21469320
i mean we dont do it to random nobodies we hammer the nails that stick out

its the greatest japanese lesson of all

>>21469320
he's spent months making fun of people who have been learning for 23 months or less for being bad at japanese so it's kinda appropriate

Never saw anyone explain how these are called so I had to hiku it myself. Apparently these are called 下駄 げた. My favorites are definitely 三枚歯の下駄

What is the Japanese equivalent of https://youtu.be/JtKqaQZ2gaQ ?

>>21469365
i have no idea who he is to be fair so i'll take your word for it

>>21469374
Those are rice field flip flops

>>21469309
Yeah, and he speaks in such a vulgar way because he's copying the style of speech/behavior that you find in anime.

It's the same thing George made fun of Matt and Yoga for when he said they sound like punks.

not him but i also remember its reading and meaning because it gets posted here, but i'm encountering it without the context of a story. i think this means flashcards work.

Just tested it and vertical text in Chrome/Chromium fucks popup dictionary addons too, but in a different way.

In Firefox, there's a massive performance hit when using them on a page with vertical text, which renders them basically unusable, but they do still at least function (if extremely poorly).

well it makes me glad you finally started being honest
but I'd still like someone to play:

>>21470505
I could torrent obviously but the integrated subtitles are much more convenient when it comes to looking words up.

its time for u to graduate quiztard

this is the anti-meditation guy in a nutshell:
- some researchers gather a bunch of random weebs with wildly varying motivation levels for a study
- they grab a genki textbook, wanikani, an RTK book, a book on input hypothesis, and anki. then randomly distribute them to the participants
- they test everyone's japanese in 6 months and only 1/3 of the participants have made any significant progress, the other 2/3 have gotten nowhere
- he concludes "welp, foreigners learning japanese doesn't work so everyone should just give up!" paying no attention to the details of what methods were used for each group of participants, and how/why effectiveness may vary between techniques
- repeatedly spams this botched "research" pretending to be a sensible person

when qm starts braggin that no one wants to play with him

>>21470526
I was actually looking for something like this, thanks mate.

quiztard u forgot ur trophy

yea I know that you all can't answer the question
but you'll pretend that you just don't care to play
because that's what'll save you face
how pathetic
we are on an anonymous image board you know

how djt copes being worse than quizmaster in nihongo (and everything else in life)
>thinking the jlpt n1 quiz is "obscure useless kanji"
>making up shit like "he doesnt know how to do anything but read words"
>making up more shit like "he cheats on the quiz also he invented it and practices it all day"
>projecting made up mental illness based on things he has never said
>thinking getting good at nihongo is useless even though you spend your time trying to learn it
anything else desu ka

just a quick round call. are we all self aware enough to recognize we are fucked up in the head prolly even more than quiz is?

i didnt even click it or read ur post tho quiztard

i am dying to know quizlord please

I think the part after ni is abbreviated it basically means something like "no other but/than you"

anta gay jan

shut up we know what it means we wanna hear it from quiztard ur ruining eVERything

>>21470400
quiz tard plz this is a request from me ur biggest fan who is very much inferior to u in every way plz give the answer to ur question as to not only improve my very shit nihongo but also to help everyone here who also loves u very much and respects u

I mean I got an idea but I'd like for somebody else to confirm it lol

never seen jamal this hot and bothered

qms not gonna answer cuz when u put urself out there u get owned but when u ask someone else to u can sit back and wait for someone to just fuckin die so hard u can laugh with no risk of revealing ur low nihongo level
he learned that one the hard way

>>21470655
idk i just thought id try a different approach this time lol

I put myself out there ^

i have some ideas but they all sound wrong please tell

>>21470661
he doesnt feel confident enough in bein able to destroy u so hes waitin for smaller fish to bite

>>21470657
what about when ppl try to own u by posting something u posted onto 1 of those language q/a sites and then utterly shits himself in front of every1 after giving u like 10 yous in one post lol

I mean this confuses me a fair bit too which is why I asked
like I got an idea but I'm not sure so I'd like to hear other people's opinions
why do you guys see all this evil intention in all my posts

>why do you guys see all this evil intention in all my posts
空気読めない

I mean it's funny you want to bash on me for a chinese simplification that I even bothered to ask several Japanese people for that made the exact same mistake
it's like yes this chinese simplification is bullshit and looks like another kanji for native speakers and myself too
what even is your point lmao

>>21470672
maybe u could try asking on int i heard ur pretty popular over there

>>21470684
I think they are all sleeping by now

prob cuz of ur history of tryin to show up beginners lol

the djt 5 year "beginners" or what

>>21470690
that looks like 井 to me

>>21470682
when u said u werent sure but maybe its this it was aight
when u said nah its def not the other one because this difference is more important than that difference it was a little lol
when u threw a tantrum about how ur guess made the most sense and u asked natives to back u up is when u just fuckin died in the middle of the thread
if u were goin to put that much effort into defendin urself u could have googled what i did and settled it urself

btw natives makin the same guess as u defended ur first innocent guess
but no one was laughin at u over makin a wrong guess
they were laughin at u over lockin in on it definitively when there was no reason to be definitive

>>21470723
ur the one who really set him off too lol

if that chinese character were real i'd kick its ass

Somebody send that streamable to a native and post the answer.

I won't tell anyone else, pinky promise

I don't really care or remember that kanji story either can we focus on today's question

>>21470400

manga i am currently reading, and some new words i got from em. averaging 11 new words/chapter for the first, and 7 new words per chapter for the second.

from ミクリナ３
凄惨
残忍
野放し
軟膏
手品 <-- surprised i'm just learning this!

from 使い魔１
人相
地中 <-- didn't know if this meant literally in the dirt (like plants) or something else
索敵
脆弱

>>21470734
i thought this was u at the time >>21231563 but now im not sure
but i remembered somethin lookin it up
i didnt even pose it as a question
i just posted that it was chinese straight up and he wanted to try to prove his superiority lol >>21231527

>>21470757
what do you think it is

well I'm going to sleep for a few hours hopefully someone delivers an answer

>>21470753
Sorry I can't risk spoilers, I really like this one.

>>21470800
When will you finish?

>>21470791
so even after learning for 2 years there will be random phrases like this that don't make any sense?

man that's it i'm quitting. japanese is impossible.

>>21470800
all the regulars know what im playin and i piss people off every day lol

>>21470809
I think I've encountered these nis before but then it was pretty obv what かくれた behind it.

>>21470801
at my current pace, ~2 months. perhaps with a speedup from vocab acquisition and srs it will go faster.

>>21470809
as if 2 years is a serious amount of time for languages lel.

>>21470763
nah thats not a mypost

the closest 1 of my posts appears to be >>21231616

>>21470823
This is not the kind of proficiency people here are going for though. To be really comfortable in a language almost as much as in your native language requires way longer than this.

I dont get why retards say manga isnt reading. Sure, you dont get anywhere near as much grammar or vocab practice out of it, but its still applying your skills to comprehend a story through reading (with massive help from pictures, obviously).

err excuse me this 1 is closer if u scroll up before it started >>21231545

I always feel these fake Jap titles on western indie games these days are off. The devs usually only add them because of aesthetics anyways, which is equivalent to the cringy normie Kanji tattoos.

>>21470841
u gotta be squidding me why would u kill urself over something this dumb

Rorona anon here, I give up.

see you in a month or two when my desires to learn Japanese are rekindled again.

believing you'll never be good at japanese does not lead to a future experience of confidently enjoying your japanese ability. it only leads to a future experience of believing you'll never be good at japanese; no matter how much you learn, what your mind will have learned is "japanese is something i'm not good at" and that will be your experience of the language indefinitely.

just like worrying about the future will only lead to more experiences of worrying about the future, not a more enjoyable future. just a habit of worrying.

however you're thinking now is literally training how you will think and experience life in the future.

>>21470846

i tried to tell em this for a long time

if u think something is hard it always stays hard and never becomes easy

things become what u say in ur fucked up brain

its how the poor people stay poor instead of gettin money

>>21470857
Not quite. I believe I'll never be "native like" in Japanese, because I'm not even native like in English and I've done that for way longer.

>>21470885
rtk was not always popular in these threads, for quite a long time people grew out of the ajatt garbage and recommended actually learning the language, but somehow it's regressed back to this completely removed from actual language process you must conquer before you can actually start, it's so silly.

i feel it is not an option that i will get good at japanese it is simply inevitable

>>21470894
sorry nerd "just read more and dont do anything else" isnt learning japanese

>>21470898
Thats how i see it, too, like how going to the gym and actually working out makes you buff whether you wanted to be buff or not

Reminder almost everyone posting here is on top of the first hill.

>>21470917
Yeah, me too. If I had people around me who wouldnt shun me for being such a weeb i would probably be way better off

Just meditate open you chakra gates to connect your sahasrara to Tokyo’s collective unconscious you quickly must close connection to other parts of Japan to not fuck you accent though that’s important anyway after you establish a direct link to Tokyo’s collective unconscious you can download the whole language with perfect accent into your brain through the akashic records mind you it takes time human brains have dial up speeds so you must live as a japanese person several years so the connection won’t be cut

>>21470905
I didn't read one piece, but manga recently got a lot easier for me, I tend to struggle a bit more with novels, but in general I still need more vocabulary and will for a long, long time.
Stuff with furigana is really cool; because then you can easily learn words with context (and don't need to look up the reading).
I feel like I have a 80~90% comprehension on some anime (depends really), but I feel like I understand like a word every three sentences in the news.
Exaggerating in both cases, but the difference is noticeable.
One Piece probably has a lot of specialized vocabulary with ships and pirates and stuff.

>>21470918
but its hard I cant understand jack shit most of the time, even if they just repeated the same word likea minute ago.

>>21470910
are you trying to imply i said that? all i said rtk was a meaningless exercise for people who are too scared of kanji. it's just a placebo to build up their confidence to actually start learning the language.

can the manga isnt reading cult read beruseruku

>>21470937
tldr

>>21470924
>vocab count
dead giveaway this image was made by an ankidrone

>>21470928
>One Piece probably has a lot of specialized vocabulary with ships and pirates and stuff.
The reason it's more difficult than light novels is because of the grammar and colloquial language usage. Learning 10 new words doesn't really make something difficult. What makes something difficult is finding something you can't really Google to find out the answer.

>Daiweeb has been took down

oh nononono

>>21470939
post ur brush writing or fuck off

>>21470947
ah, yeah, I remember reading my first manga and being confused what the hell もん was supposed to be ...
nowadays, I just kind of "let it flow", I guess. I'm still an idiot though so don't think I know what I'm doing.

>>21470939
i can read and write around 4000 actually, and i didn't even do rtk!

but i have a question for you, why do you find it so necessary to prioritize writing to such a high degree before you actually understand more than the 50 words you learned watching anime with english subs? wouldn't it make more sense to learn something more useful, like words or grammar?

>>21470952
If youre at the point where youre worried about colloquial language, talk to a gourmet nihonjin

How do you guys set up your subs so you can use yomichan?

>>21470955
i didnt say you should do that

>>21470960
use voracious

>>21470950
all I can show you is my daily rtk sheet

>>21470963
okay, well if you recommend doing a method similar to rtk to learn to write after you can already read fluently then i can agree with that. most people here say to do it at the beginning though.

Learning how to write anything past 8th grade kanji seems like a waste of time nips are over reliant on kana when it comes to hand writing

probably because the news discusses shit you don't care about and have never taken the time to learn
most of the news sucks anyway so i wouldn't worry about it

>>21470999
I feel you. It's been like this for me since I was a kid, and often I ask myself if you should even bother with it anymore.
I just think that there's nothing else out there, so I should use what I have even if it's barely anything - it's more than I deserve anyway.

>>21471003

>>21470996
The idea that your self-concept and mindset regarding something you are pursuing will have an effect on the actual outcome is the most basic, platitudinous bullshit that exists. I don't need to pretend it's obvious because it is fucking obvious.

you handwriting shouldn’t be too pretty that’s a sign of you seeing the characters as pictures instead of strokes

>>21471009
I don't really read the news usually either so you're probably right

Does anyone know how to get the frequency of a kanji's readings in Yomichan? Or something like the "common word" tihing in jisho.

>>21471010
I can't ruin my parents so here I am until they're not at least.

>>21471013
There are a lot of things that are influenced by your mindset alone. Ever heard of the placebo effect?

>>21470974
Nobody even uses handwriting at all. Like when's the last time you wrote anything outside of your name and address in the last 10 years? Only people who write are boomers and hipsters.

>>21470984

>>21471022
I'm not saying it's incorrect. I shouldn't have used bullshit in my previous post. It's generic and obvious, not untrue.

>>21471023
idk when's the last time you pried yourself from your screen fatshit

>>21471019
same

>>21471026
I tried that but it looks like all the readings for a word have the same frequency

japanese news:
working man in osaka arrested for possessing marijuana! marijuana is bad, he is a horrible person! baddo doraggu! next, let's look at this all you can drink sake sampling event!

lol japanese news can rot

>>21471056
oh I missed that part of your post, yeah no clue then sry

the same reason japan hates marijuana is the same reason they are the most prosperous rich country

>>21471060

weed is the devil

t. 3 gram per day smoker

>>21471029

Everyone else: ladies and gentlemen
The Japanese: east and west

>>21471074
who cares, that's not the point. japanese people are ignorant as hell when it comes to that issue, alcohol has been proven multiple times over to be more dangerous than marijuana yet they demonize it while chugging chuu-hi's like retards.

>>21471064
>the same reason japan hates marijuana is the same reason they are the most prosperous rich country
is that also the same reason why salarymen are passed out on night trains with alcohol poisoning?

皿洗い機

>>21471080
The notion itself being obvious is independent of whether people apply it. Just like how it's obvious to fat fucks that they'd stop being fat if they ate less yet they remain fat. I'd wager that pretty much everyone on these boards is aware of it since it's in every single motivational piece of content that exists. Applying it or not is their business.

As for myself, I do apply it. I've become good at everything I've wanted to so far in my life. Not to the levels I'd hoped for in some things but enough to learn that I have the ability to learn things.

>>21470913
>going to the gym and actually working out makes you buff whether you wanted to be buff or not
doesn't mean you'll perceive yourself as buff (and how we perceive our lived experience is what actually effects our lives the most). why do you think some guys who are already swole start taking steroids and shit. their minds are fucked, they never learned how to give themselves credit so they never feel "good enough" for this nebulous standard that's always one step away. and that's exactly where some of yall are headed with japanese.

japanese is hard and doesn't pay out outside of being able to brag about knowing it to people why even try...

>>21471122
I missed you

>>21471127
how do you know who I am.

using weed and alcohol in excess are bad for learning
using weed in moderation is probably also bad for learning
using alcohol in moderation is probably ok
but i'm an alcoholic so none for me :)

>>21471116
let's worry about that after we've become fluent at reading listening and speaking

Why do I find onyomi so much easier to remember than most kun readings?

>>21471134
onpu

>>21471134
Because on-readings have phonetic components and kun-readings are just kanji slapped onto Japanese words.

>>21471122
Japanese is basically the only thing difficult enough for my brain to distract me from contemplating suicide so yeah

>>21471122
>tfw you realize that you have ascended beyond the realms of normals by no longer seeking or requiring external validation
feels god like man

>>21471103
>independent of whether people apply it.
if people aren't applying it then it's not actually obvious to them at a level that actually matters, and thus reminding them of it is beneficial. the fat people example is poor because there are other variables at work keeping those bad choices in place, which they are likely not aware of and don't know how to control. carbohydrate addiction and insulin resistance, emotional attachment to food etc.

that's different from someone who wants to play piano but his dad's judgmental voice keeps repeating in his head making him think he'll never be good at it. its probably not "obvious" to him that that's why he can never acknowledge his improvements despite years of practice.

>>21471130
drugs and alcohol are bad even weed is bad and even tho im very pro weed im also straightedge

weeds only bad cuz i know lots of guys who smoked for decades and now they have no memory and thats pretty ass

ultimately just keep ur human temple as pure as u can
