cultural output of this thread really sucks - too derivative. need new material from a different perspecitve

why does wanikani shill feel the need to spam at the beginning of his shill threads even when there isn't a competing thread

i like using japanesepod101 lessons. but its a pain in the ass creating new accounts every 7 days

yeah the graph sucks

"compelling" being used as an academic term should be a clue it's bs

i really hate the word "compelling"

why is matt such a psycho? cant believe he had 3 alts on the djt discord alone

just got to this sick scene in galactic heroes reboot

they booked og boys its finally over

There are only four kinds of Japanese "students".
>the dekinai
He will always struggle with Japanese and always uses "short cuts" while in reality will never improve
>the insecure "content" creator
He will try to teach you Japanese while not being that good in Japanese.
>the fluent Japanese Chad
He knows that Japanese is just a language and that knowing Japanese alone is nothing to brag about. He uses Japanese to read scientific books and never brags about his Japanese knowledge or tries to teach Japanese because he knows that it's a waste of time for most people and in the end you are just reading the same stuff you read in English just in a different language.
>the ultra Chad
He sucks in Japanese and doesn't even bother with Kanji. Instead he creates an "Immersion Approach" and makes money by creating his own cult and promising that if you watch 10k hours of anime and be a constant patreon supporter, you will reach fluency without stuff like textbooks or Heisig.

He learns Japanese to participate in Japanese speaking communities and ditch the degenerate political mess that is any English speaking social organization on the net.

>the virgin gmi
He suffers through native content he cannot understand. When he finally learns Japanese he realizes japanese anime dialogue is just as corny as english subtitles.

am i right in assuming "jibun no" and "watashi no" can be used interchangeably?

>>34131680
yes and no
if you are the subject then yes
if other things are the subject then no

>>34131610
true
I studied in college one year in the same classes as Japanese students.
It's not something they learn on the job.
It was hard for a lazy european like me to adapt.

I think you're seriously overestimating the ability of the average Japanese person. For every hard working, studious Iida-san, there are half a dozen lazy Dameda-sans who paid just enough attention in school to pass, just like any other country. If anything the kanji make reading harder for natives of Japanese.

Why everyone thinks that all Japanese are some sort of perfectly fluent, correct people is beyond my comprehension.

If you think every country has the same level of discipline and social sensibilities you're retarded. Not even talking about Japs.

>>34131869
do you know them in the west? because Japanese people that move or spend a lot of time in the west are not typical, and usually are the ones trying to escape the Japanese system

>>34131720

when did i say i lived in japan?
i do however have a lovely stream of kabukicho as my desktop background and you could easily collect a fortune with jaywalking tickets there as a plainclothes police officer
earlier today i saw someone almost get hit by a car after he boldly started crossing the street without even looking around

>>34132064
they did one of the best jobs explaining lain that i have ever seen

imagine needing lain explained to you
i bet they are textbook or wanikani fags

>>34132120
timestamp?

>>34132099
I find most of the Japanese that come to the west don't like the Japanese system and want to escape it, especially the women

the hard working, very disciplined Japanese that make that country work so well don't spend a lot of time learning English (if at all)

>>34132141
1:39:46

>>34132150
and to add to that, a higher percentage that come here tend to get tattoos within the first year, so that says a lot for the demographic that is coming to the west on year long working visas

imagine listening to literal mouthbreathers for an hour

>>34132162
they are somehow brainwashed by a fantasy that the west is great or something, kind of a reverse weeb thing I guess, I try to teach them how much of a shithole my western country really is and the culture is one of the big reasons

feel like whenever i go anywhere else on the channel im walking amongst children and the mentally crippled
djt truly is the thinking mans thread

watched the first ep of lain and dropped it because absolutely nothing happened

cant stand these overly atmospheric anime where if it was a manga i'd be done with the equivalent of an episode in 30 seconds

>>34132203
hurrrr durrrrrrrrrrrr

basically jap version of da hood, it's worse than most of other parts

>>34132207

>>34132150
Those that come to live in the west for a long time, sure.

Your typical 中小企業 salaryman may not speak English but those working in big groups do. Those big groups are very good are snapping talented young people who are only interested in the 知名度 of business'.

If they were like other countries there wouldn't be anime no one here is autistic enough to work at something as tedious as hand drawn animating for hobo wage

>>34132314
Cheers

finally learnt all kanji for 夏色祭り

I can't believe I used to think people like matt, yoga, youtubers and gay anki addons are useful.

>>34132327
yeah that's why all animation is outsourced to korea and vietnam now

>>34132327
a long time ago decent western cartoons were made too but for some reason it stopped pretty much completely when the shiny digital stuff became common

>>34132380
What made you change your mind about Matt and Yoga, I'm genuinely curious why they're popular in the first place, tried to watch a few videos and all I could come up with was that its a guy saying the same thing every single time but in a different metaphor

>>34132389
Those outsource companies only draw in between frames for unimportant parts.

He made a friendlier AJATT and introduced me to Stephen Krashen.
You could say that in a way, I never liked the person but the concepts and people he introduced me to.

>a guy saying the same thing every single time but in a different metaphor
That is absolutely true.

>>34132438
so bad pay is the way to go if one wants the cute things that only the japanese seem to be able to create? west animators may be paid well but i would say that they dont deserve the money

>>34132082
I have no idea man, i'm sorry

>>34132515
It's cultural more than anything. if you grew up in a certain environment you will turn out immensely different than those who didn't, it will affect your mindset on everything you do. I don't know why Americans nowadays seem to have no respect for any other culture and always try to force their ideals on others, maybe because they are a cultural melting pot with all those immigrants and what not.

>>34132082
a vpn could work but just try to copy the name and look for it somewhere else before wasting time on that

>>34132579

>>34132579
culture seems to be a dying thing in many countries. everything just gets copied from usa without any questioning now and old local things are seen as bad for all kinds of silly reasons

>>34132625
Would Japan follow suit？

>>34132656
they'd be one of the last to do that just for the language difference alone, language is HUGE which is why the UK is basically yank 2.0 now

>>34132656
theyve always been a conservative country so i doubt it

>>34132656
they would but more slowly than others

>>34132656
Japan is one of those countries well aware that once upon a time they too lost/forgot their own culture, it is in this awareness that I'm pretty sure they'd be more resilient in completely losing themselves

unironic china worshipers are faggots. They openly show hostility toward neighbors, get rich off of slave labor and would make you another serveant in their mindless drone system if they ever took over your country. China is the greatest threat to the world since the Soviets

>>34132872
you just need a credit card and a random japanese address and it's no problem

>>34131720
This is true.

I taught English grammar for a year at a Jap uni, and some of the kanji wrote my students — even the good ones — would make were eye-rollingly bad. Even my fellow profs (including a few 東大 graduates) would make pants-on-head-retarded mistakes.

>>34132947

I fail to see how any level of autarky or nationalism could fix that glaring issue, dont get me wrong though. I'm not trying to be a blackpiller because inevitably war and dictatorship has and always will fail no matter what neat new technology you get but if the U.S. doesn't change foreign policy fast and stop bickering with Russia about which killer they want in control of the middle east the cold war will ratchet up once more unless Xi dies and someone decides to go Deng's route and make the country less hostile.

>>34133007
the ones I meet here have an attitude of superiority, and they are brainwashed to believe that the Chinese system is actually good. They are the rich ones though that move here, and you get rich in China by being connected to the government, so it makes sense that they feel that is ok and also they have an attitude of entitlement that their family deserves what they have.

>>34132959
i think that its surprising that this kind of writing can even be used as a primary language. they would be super slow to write and you need to have a really good memory to remember them

>>34132438
how did you learn eigo?

>>34133043
Yup, that’s sounds about right.

>>34132937
The economy. If an embargo was placed between China and any country the country's economy would be in ruin and they would get voted out easy unless people finally wake up to the evils over there. The problem also lies in America enforcing their values everywhere. For example in the Philippines, the current leader Rodrigo Duterte is taking a massive task of getting rid of all the drug dealers violently. Now whether you agree with this or no is no issue. The issue is that because the West is too focused on their image they wont ally with Duterte, Russia is too far away and that leads one major power. China. Now this is one example but it happens almost anytime someone in power decides to tell the Western globohomo shit to fuck off. They have to turn to China or Russia and that choice is increasingly becoming China and America and the West altogether might pay the final price for it.

>>34132959
>I taught English grammar for a year at a Jap uni, and some of the kanji wrote my students
lmfao

>>34133046
It really isn’t as bad as you would think. While there is a crazy learning curve, it still has many advantages over phonetic systems.

I love the complexities of it, but I won’t go so far as to claim that it’s superior.

>>34133078
I agree with >>34133143
Spain is the biggest example of economic autarky/complete self sufficiency failing. After the second world war Spain's biggest ally, Italy under Mussolini and Germany until Hitler (sort of) were gone they were isolated for real and had to do everything themselves. Though this is orthodox fascist doctrine Franco was always more of a realist and it would be fair to say he wasnt even a fascist and more of an authoritarian conservative. Because of Spain's isolation they were forced to westernize and became more liberal (in the classical sense not modern day liberal) and prospered because of it. I think China is an exception though given their repeated actions in relation to manipulating currency and other shady practices. Heres a good video about the basics of globalization thats like three minutes long and made for like 9th grade economics but it gets the point across in an easy way.
https://youtu.be/qAJILMLx4o8
I think the best way to counter China is not to isolate but build a strong friendship with countries like South Korea, India and Japan that are feeling threatened by China's rapid militarization. So we can cripple China's biggest talent, their economy, and cripple them without blood needing to be shed

Heres a graph with for the point about Spain with some basic annotations I made in a simple drawing app. Keep in mind this is a rough thing I made in like a minute so its very oversimplified and recovering from the civil war for sure made the economy better and there are other factors but it was mostly liberalization (privatization) that made Spain much more prosperous

That’s great, but you’re still a tiny minority. People as far back as the 80s’ were crowing about the “paper-less office” and it’ll probably be at least another fifty years, if not more.

>I was speaking of university
I was speaking of professional working environments, few people write at work now unless it's accounting or something. Schools should be changed too, it's not even that expensive to equip every classroom with computers nowadays.

>>34133499
Alright, perhaps that is the case elsewhere, but I’m referring to Japanese unis and workplaces, and I assure you:

Everything is fucking handwritten.

Maybe it’s stupid, but that’s how it is. And frankly, it’s kinda disturbing how many people can read certain words and kanji, but can’t write them to save their lives. Take away their phones, and they’re effectively illiterate.

I love studying the written forms, but you are absolutely right.

The true form of a language is spoken; the written representation can only approximate it.

>>34133648
no language is all about message

>message that you can write
>message that you can hear
>message that you can speak

some people are better in one way or another, but no one person even a japanese person is good at all of them

these country rankings are always biased
one of the reasons that nordic countries always rank so high is because these rankings measure success by how much countries accept homos and how many female ceos there are

Why is it that with the example sentences in anki for core 6k I can understand them all almost perfectly with little or no effort but then I go and read some actual real Japanese from someome on twitter or in a doujin and it's like they're speaking another language.

>now this is an objective list with the numbers of patents
the problem is that patent applications do not necessarily demonstrate who is inventing actual useful and innovative things. i have a suspicion based on strong historical precedent that if there was a catalog of "modern innovations/inventions", measured by references from experts (i.e. "who do modern experts think made the most contributions to their fields?"), the US and individual western countries would dwarf china and japan.

Sounds like you're coping to me. Shit like that pic is fed to the brainwashed mass due to the west's political power in that period. In truth Chinese art, literature, science and music has had far more influence over people in Asia then Western shit throughout the course of history.

Where as the USA which has a lot more resources, finances, and braindrained other countries of their talent pool since post WW II, yet only managed to be at the top position for a measely 5 years. Goes to show how broken and pathetic USA's education system is from taking a nose dive in quality after the 1970s.

>Sounds like you're coping to me.
nope just honestly assessing the situation.
>Shit like that pic is fed to the brainwashed mass
i think it's a better way of measuring actual scientific output because of the problems i mentioned with paper output and patent applications. the (potential) downside is that the data is biased in favor of the west because it's derived from encyclopedias and the west could be racist against asians. except western white elites hate themselves so much that they'd gladly give credit to asians so i doubt this.
>yet only managed to be at the top position for a measely 5 years.
you're comparing the US to a country with 4x the population and a higher average iq. moreover per capita (despite the brown american population) china still loses.
>Goes to show how broken and pathetic USA's education system is
differences in education systems don't explain differences in human capital. the us spends exorbitant money on education but still performs poorly compared to western europeans because we have a lot of low iq brown people.
>The future will be painted yellow
it's possible but it'll only be possible by self-hating whites ruining their own countries through the mass importation of low iq browns.

>>34137463
I accept your concession.

are you reading japanese in cyrillic or something lol

My son, my wife, and I are all interested in learning Japanese. Does anyone have recommendations on where to start and what resources would be best for group learning? We'd like to try to make this something we dedicate at least an hour to every day as "family time".

It's clearly biased. Speaking for literature alone, it's completely absurd to say Chinese or Russian have less "significant" writers than the Western ones in Asia, not to mention the idea of what is significant and what isn't is as subjective as what invention is useful, and who invents it. Research published in western paper will always favor the west.

djt is so shit without jamal

where has that boy gotten to

>>34137602
yep, i started one year ago. i still find 30~50 words per episode.

possibly but it's the only measure of actual scientific output we have.
>it's completely absurd to say Chinese or Russian have less "significant" writers than the Western ones in Asia
i don't know why you keep trying to confine it to asia as if china doesn't have a massive advantage in that regard because of the difficulties of cultural transmission for thousands of years. but in modern days whose cultural influence and entertainment is reaching more people globally, china's or the west's?

are you serious right now? that's peppa pig tier

3k is nuke tier

nuke probably "knows" like 10k words actually but that proves how little that matters

>dont do anki just read

can someone please be so kind and just explain how. How can I read when I dont know a single word? do I need to grab a text and just translate every single word with yomi chan? I dont get it. Anki sounds like a better start for a beginner. Someone tell me why i'm wrong

>>34137696
>possibly but it's the only measure of actual scientific output we have.
No, posting random numbers of "significant" people isn't a measure of actual scientific output. Number of patents is a much more objective evaluation.

>in modern days whose cultural influence and entertainment is reaching more people globally, china's or the west's?
Only west country which challenges Chinese, Japanese and Korean cultures in those field is the US but it's not clear which actually has more influence.

>>34137750
you must be watching some really low level shit then because a fucking baby knows 3k words

3k words is NOTHING.

at this point you will never make it

it's not since that includes frivolous patents and junk science.

>>34137989
>Pure numbers is much better than some biased white men's opinion on who or what is important
no, because quality over quantity.
>This is only achieved by political power
>because the UK was big
the UK was big and had more political power because its people are high quality, and high quality people typically contribute more to culture. america dominates culturally in part because of ashkenazi jews.

>>34138052
lamy if you want japanese and ina if you want english

>>34137834
all you need to do is to find an anime that deals with a specific topic and you'll find hundreds of new words. if there's a character who is more formal then more words.
the show deals with fighting -> hundred of fighting terminology + words related to honor, skill, etc..
the show deals with magic -> magic words
show deals with spiritism? -> hundred of words around the topic
show is about samurai -> more words, expressions, etc..
in some shows you'll find words about chemistry, ships, aviation, etc.. etc..
then you have a shitload of sayings, slangs, etc.. etc..

Completely irrelevant when the UK can't compare to Japan now in both military capabilities and cultural influence. If we were speaking historically then I could trace back to when China was the most powerful civilization in the world.

>>34138103

go back to discord

Well. I got to level 21 about seven years ago, and then…things happened. And then I opened up Wanikani in January and found about 1800 reviews and who knows how many lessons. I’ve been dogged, though, and today leveled up, which I kind of can’t believe.

I also think it’s a testament to Wanikani that even after seven years, when I first opened my reviews, I was burning kanji and radicals–my brain had retained them. I haven’t burned anything now since February! But hopefully that will happen soon?

Anyway, this is all to say that if you are lapsed out there, please take some inspiration, and again, to say that this really is a wonderful learning platform. And a great way to spend the pandemic…
