With the rise of AI, all humans are obsolete.
Won't be long before we cease to exist.

>>43158422
True. Who would want a 3d when you can have a robowife.
Which also means they'll be the first thing outlawed because >m-muh economy.

ai will teach you to appreciate the imperfections of human beings and the world. always love your fellow human being, no matter how defective he is. you are always defective in the eyes of someone else

>>43158442
by the time robowifes come out your job will be gone and you will be dying homeless on the street, unable to afford one. be careful what you wish for

>>43158407
It will always feel better to understand the words yourself than having someone explain them to you. AI can't change this.

been studying for one year and two months now, I find translating texts from english to japanese to be a great exercise (not the other way around).
I translated this (http://gnosis.org/ library/hymnssoul.htm) to japanese:

魂に賛歌
パフラヴィー語でマニ教宗教賛歌

…ふさわしい救いである
光の魂よ、済度するため、汝に訓令を与える

魂よ、この光の舟に来い！

我の幸せと気高いが豊かである愛し魂よ
いったいどこか行ったの？帰ってください！

>>43160441
Why would I? I already live and work in Japan. Dont mext people take all their classes in english anyway? kind of defeats the point of japan. Its weird how theres this double standard where asian exchange students who suck at english can go to america and take classes in english and no one cares if they dont understand shit but god forbid a gaijin try to do the same even with a higher level of understanding of japanese. And japanese college is supposed to be 楽. Why not do as matt and khatz did and try to immerse as much as possible around finishing your regular work?

i mean its just a few retards

>>43158600
Yeah honestly with how difficult and tedious it can be to live in the USA, I'm not sure it'll be worth living in a foreign country as a non-citizen since all the tedium will be 10x as bad.

its just one retard, most likely you know who

maybe look up what MEXT is before forming an opinion about it
japanese college/grad is ez mode tho

>>43160780
>Why would I? I already live and work in Japan
Ok well obviously I wasn't asking you then. It's not like I replied to your post and asked you specifically.
>Dont mext people take all their classes in english anyway
No, so the rest of your post is kinda useless ranting.

>>43160780
>kind of defeats the point of japan.
pretty sure the point of japan as a foreigner is to have unprotected sex with japanese women

close, it's to impregnate as many as possible in abe's honor

>>43162129
Sure, quite literally it means "The people who seem to never have sex have the most extreme sex." This is a really common sentence pattern that you'll see where two clauses are linked by ほど which then gets expressed as "the more A, the more B." You'll also see 説 (theory/opinion) at the end of a lot of edgy opinions or just people's opinions in general. This gets dropped a lot when translating because it's not typical to state one's opinion as an opinion unless we're softening our stance on something (e.g. In my opinion, I think homeless people should receive less handouts).
So if I had to break it down a little more, it would look like
>SEXしてなさそうな人ほど
The more someone seems like they don't have sex...
>エグいSEXしてる
The more crazy sex they have.

>>43162669
Too long, didn't read.

>>43162129
A(な)説
Theory that A
BほどC
the more B, the more C
SEXしてなさそうな人
a person that appears to not have sex
エグいSEXしてる
(they're) having wild sex

Learning Japanese without doing a lot of reading is like trying to become a pro boxer without ever doing any exercise or throwing a punch. Learning anatomy and proper form and stuff is okay, sure, but you have to spend time hitting and getting hit.

>>43164074
this is correct. professional chefs often don't cook at home and instead buy premade pizza and toss it in the microwave. it's the cooking (anki) part that is important, not the eating (reading).

You won't get good at reading Japanese if you don't read Japanese.

>>43164457

>>43165152
Textbook method will take days. Grinding those kana websites (like in the OP) will be a few hours. You don't need to completely master them, but get a decent starting base as they'll get reinforced throughout the learning process.

Which words should I prioritize for mining? Common words? Uncommon words? If the meaning of a word is "obvious" from the kanji (保身) should I add it?
I don't want to add every word I don't know.

>>43160217
That's a very good translation, especially for only studying a little more than a year. I think the only thing I can really critique is style and some of your grammar and word choices.
>魂に賛歌
に isn't incorrect here, but it sounds ambiguous. I might opt to render it as 魂への賛歌 or even 魂のための賛歌 for clarity. More idiomatically, it might look like 魂の賛歌.
>パフラヴィー語でマニ教宗教賛歌
You used the endonym for Parthian, but it's normally rendered as the exonym, "パルティア語," in Japanese. マニ教宗教賛歌 also seems redundant. I might render it as マニ教賛美歌 to make it in line with what you'd see on a modern psalter.
>…ふさわしい救いである
I would keep the subject clear here: 救いにふさわしい汝
>光の魂よ、済度するため、汝に訓令を与える
済度 is the Buddhist term for salvation, but Gnosticism might call for Christian terminology (e.g. 救済). I also might use a closer word for "counsel" like 助言 or 指導.
>魂よ、この光の舟に来い！
This is just a style critique, but biblical/honorific language tends to render these kinds of commands in the なさい-form. I'd also pluralize souls: 魂たちよ、この光の舟に来なさい！
>我の幸せと気高いが豊かである愛し魂よ
I'd rewrite this to be a bit more clear and use 最愛の instead of 豊かである愛し for "most beloved" (e.g. 我の最愛の魂よ、幸せで高貴な汝、).
>いったいどこか行ったの？帰ってください！
いったい might be too informal here: どこへ行ってしまったのですか？ 帰ってきなさい！
>落ちました酔い眠りから目覚めよ！
I'd keep the "dear soul" part: 愛しい魂よ、落ちった酔い眠りから目覚めなさい！
見ろ！苦しめる者は死の罠をかけています。
I like your poetic usage of 死の罠. I'd try to keep the "all around you" part in and also reemphasize the command (and use 見よ for biblical style points, kek): 敵を見よ、彼らが汝の周りに死の罠をかける様子を見よ！
>世界で造られた聖地を出発して、汝の原産地。
I'm not sure if you misread the original, but "The Word" in this context is referring to the Gnostic concept of Sophia or Logos. This titles is adapted from St. John's Gospel, where he uses the phrase to refer to Christ. It's normally translated as 言 or 言葉. I'd again make the command more clear here: 言葉によって創造された天の地、汝が初めにいた場所へと帰りなさい。
>天国から使者の天使は着いてあった
使者の天使 is redundant as both the Japanese and English word for angel already mean messenger. Also, not that your word choice was off, but for the sake of accuracy, I'd use the word 楽園 or パラダイス for the heavenly or biblical Paradise. For Kingdom, I'd again go with the biblical 御国 but I don't think it would be too much of a stretch to make it 天の御国 for clarity: 楽園から天使が現れました。その天使は御国の告げる者でした。
Overall, I'd say your translation is excellent and I respect your adherence to the original words. I guess my only advice to you would be to stop reading satanic material and put your mind on God's Word and the Gospel instead.
Hope this helps, anon. God bless.

I'd give every word that you come across this test to see if you want to mine it or not:
1. Could you have guessed the reading just by looking at it?
2. Could you have guessed the meaning just by looking at it?
If both are true, then feel free to skip the word, otherwise you should probably take the time to learn it. Now you might not like this system because that means every uncommon word you come across has to be mined, so I'll propose a new test.
>1. Do you know the English equivalent of the word?
If so, then you should probably know the Japanese equivalent for the sake of fluency.

I'm trying to get better at distinguishing similar kanji after studying vocab for a year or so, but all the kanji decks I've tried don't seem that great. Is there an Anki deck for kanji where the mnemomics don't sound like they were thought up by a horny 14 year old, as they do in decks based on Koohii, and which also doesn't incorporate strange phonetic readings based on English words that sound nothing like Japanese, like KanjiDamage Plus?

>>43166645
You should be mining at this point and learning kanji through the vocabulary you encounter.

why do we say 大ダメージ as だいダメージ but 大怪我 as おおけが？

lets fucking gooo

>>43166680
トマトまつりじゃ

What are you guys doing tonight

>>43166867
waiting

>>43166679
Because there’s no actual rule on which reading affixes take in Japanese. Generally speaking, on’yomi readings go with foreign words, as in the case of “damage” and kun’yomi readings go with native Japanese words, but exceptions abound for the most common words. The point of all the holdovers is to, believe it or not, make the language easier to use by letting everyone form words with more common readings, rather than the arbitrary list of on’yomi readings the government assigned. That’s why no one bats an eyelash if I write 王様, because both readings are common and everyone knows that 様 is read with its kun’yomi reading as a suffix.

okay, okay, don't freak out, but does anyone actually have any Japanese learning stuff they're doing tonight or what? no hate, just curious.

>>43166946

True, learning Japanese can be a real pain in the ass, especially when it comes to the writing system. And one of the reasons is that there's no damn rule on which reading affixes go where! Like, usually, onyomi readings go with foreign words, and kunyomi readings go with native Japanese words, but there's always exceptions to screw things up for ya. But you know what's interesting? The reason why the reading affixes are all over the place is actually to make it easier to use the language. Ain't that wild? Thats why the Japanese government assigned onyomi readings to kanji characters to create a standardized list, but that's pretty damn limited when it comes to forming new words. So to give people more flexibility, the Japanese language kept a lot of kunyomi readings around, allowing for more wiggle room in word formation. Even though the Japanese writing system can be confusing as hell, by retaining multiple readings for kanji characters, the language becomes more accessible and easier to use. So don't get too hung up on the rules, just keep practicing and you'll get there eventually!

This localizing thing has gotten out of control. Soon we’re gonna be localizing the images we post too.

>>43169366
It's just a mirror of MSDN file information. That info was available without subscription in the past but nowadays Microsoft has made it limited to MSDN subscribers only.
If you have MSDN subscription you could verify yourself that hashes and other info on that site matches MSDN information.

>>43169755
"Localizing thing"? Do you mean
>Oh no! People being able to read or listen to things originally not in their native language without it having random meaningless noise and weird foreign nonsense in it troubles me!
I don't know any Korean but if I were suddenly interested in some manwha then the equivalents to stuff like "onii-chan" and "tsundere" that localization-complainers usually want to keep would be entirely meaningless noise to me.

Maybe you didn't mean that. Apologies if I was being presumtuous.

>>43169842
typically the complaints are over trans lators jamming political messages into everything

>>43169860
Sure, dumb shit like translating Lucoa's "people were ogling me" into "down with the patriachy" are cringe, sure, but changing an obscure Japanese net meme into an obscure Anglosphere net meme for example is good localization work. It can get strained if the characters lean into it too much, which makes localization harder. I don't envy them the work they do.

Personally I just watch and read in Japanese so to me the localizations are not much more than a passing curiosity at how they choose to do things.

>>43169842
Yes! That’s actually exactly what I was referring to when I said localizations. I just can’t stand it when words like imouto, dono, sassato, kira kira aren’t left as is with no translation. This is what all us localization complainers are actually angry at. This is why you see so many of us complain about it. It’s all because we want to read chan and kun in our vidya and those gosh darn localizers keep translating everything perfectly, but leaving out my precious honorifics.
You’ve got us figured out, anon.

>>43169892

I was consistently impressed by how well Undertale was localized into Japanese, for example. As a non-native the text seemed pleasant and natural, and there were quite a lot of substitutions and reworks to the literal text.

nice, im at 3500 but im not gonna learn more kanji before i finish some other stuff

i dont wanna make him feel bad so i didnt reply

lost my 15k mined vocab deck 3 years ago from some anki update and i quit learning japanese.

honestly im surprised how much of it stuck, but i really wanna get back into it now. i remember all the hiranagana/katakana, some basic grammar, and few kanji (not enough to read almost anything without dictionary), what would be the best way for me to get started again?

this is why you back up bros

first make an automated backup
then read and mine

>lost flashcards
>""forgot"" japanese
hate to break it to you but you didnt know anything to begin with

no one ever became fluent from reading

>>43170401
lmao, why did that make you quit?
just continue mining, if you already know the words then you didnt lose anything
if you didnt know them and see them again you can just make another card with a button
if you never see them again then the card didnt matter

reading outside of anki is wasted effort

every1 who gives anki advice sucks without exception

no, but raw meat would be even better

spent all day playing fighting games, only did my reps and watched half an anime episode... i think i pause too much because i don't want to miss the plot

picked up two new manga series and a drama thanks to la+ and matuli

pausing steals your gains

i steal your gains

Some days I feel great, can understand some anime like death note or monster without subs and feel like I made good progress, then the next day I get utterly filtered by some fucking myazaki movie and feel like I'm the same level I was 6 months ago

I understand your confusion, because they're pretty darn similar, but the differences lie in what causes the explosion. 爆裂 refers to something bursting open, (e.g. a pipe bursting open), while 爆発 is any kind of explosion, especially one that involves a chemical reaction or involves heavy pressure (e.g. a literal bomb or even a volcano). The nuance is subtle, but if you look up some examples of either, you'll see what I mean.
Best of luck in your studies, anon.

but matt (pbuh) attained perfection through anki

yeah but he didn't do 2s fake reps plus his iq is 20 points higher

I just mine every single thing I can't read. nowadays if I read for like 3 hours I only find like 3-5 cards usually

>fake reps
wot
besides who wouldnt be happy to have an iq of 980

>>43172816
same. i imagine you have to be pretty dogshit to find 75

or be a kankenchad and make cards out of missed qs

learn japanese first lol

>>43172824
well I started out finding a ton and that's how I got where I am now I guess. hm, or maybe not, cause most of those words are so common I acquired them involuntarily just from reading/listening to whatever. I feel like anki is more useful now for these rare readings that I dont' encounter organically so often

imagine being so dogshit you miss 75 qs

ive already been jouzud so that means im native level
