/jp/ - Otaku Culture

The よ particle reminds me of how gangsters talk. I keep thinking of people like Jesse from Breaking Bad or how even I sometimes use slang. If someone asked "Whose party is it?" Then you can respond with "It's my partyよ" which sounds like someone using slang saying, "It's my party, yo!" It's made it really easy to remember this particle.

why is it good to know when you can instantly look it up in any situation you would need to know it in

i like having the knowledge of where places relative to one another
it's also good to know capitals because those are major cities and thus popular tourist destinations and a great topic of conversation
as for japan i just love japan and i feel it's my duty to know the country as well as i know the us

did I wander into /g/ on accident? btw wasn't stallman living in a college office and got kicked out after wokeness came for him?

>>43585194
The article that kicked things off was a fucking bitch working for the Military Industrial Complex designing drones to kill people.
Stallman made comments affirming a (deceased) colleague's innocence in Epstein's pedo island, and despite being a bona-fide autist, obviously meant no harm. She went on to paint him in the worst light possible to oust him.

I'm having trouble deciding how to translate a line
>new scene begins
>main character closes her eyes in the bath
>どうして こんな目に…。
>scene flashes to the aftermath of a war/battle, with corpses laying about
>unsure if it's a flashback or just showing the state of the world
>the original crunchyroll subs say "How did it come to this?"
I was thinking something like "Why do I have to remember this now?" but that doesn't seem quite right either.
Maybe for context, the next line is
>けど こんな世界を変えたくて私はスパイを…。
But this is a pretty clear sentence so I don't need help with this one.

please for the love of god im trying to find a way to watch sphere club (the japanese idol tv show) i only found a torrent on nyaa but it has 0 seeds. any helpful soul that can help me find a working link?

You could tell me that the anime Polar Bear Cafe aka Shirokuma Cafe aka 白くまカフェ was made for people to learn Japanese and I'd almost believe you.

The Japanese is slow, lots of one word punchlines accompanied by a visual of said word, the vocab isn't that advanced, the Japanese is quite regular.

Wish I started sooner! It's not beneath me yet of course, but it would have probably helped more earlier!

50 episodes too!

It's my first anime watching raw that isn't a rewatch, and I don't feel like I'm missing out at all! When rewatching Mob Psycho 100 season 2 but raw this time the other week , there were times where I was unsure what was going on, but watching this anime I haven't had basically any moments like that at all despite being a first time watch.

It's probably not something I'd like that much if I wasn't also getting a dopamine rush from my efforts paying off, but it's still a comfy cute show, not bad at all!

For Japanese learners who like me have a couple hundred hours under their belt, or even much sooner, I can highly recommend it!

should you even be giving advice to other people?
>>43585460
depends on what you want, really. if you don't have much vocab, VN is "slower" (you have to stop more often to look stuff up), since they describe actions and things that happen with words instead of visually like in manga. either way just learn to search kanji by radical and you're fine

>>43585490
you are a god

>>43585460
VNs should be your main source of input. Every other form of input is inferior to VNs for learning.
If you have 3 hours available you should spend all of it on reading VNs. Where people fuck up is they spend hours “listening” (actually whitenoising), reading manga, or LNs. You make almost no gains from listening unless you’re already at an advanced level. Manga doesn’t have longer form sentences and is hard to look up words for so you end up not looking up a lot of words and it has furigana which is crippling and you waste time looking at art. LNs are good for advanced level learners but not beginners and intermediates who benefit so much from having context via images and voiced dialogue. Without context and voiced lines a beginner/intermediate will have a harder time deducing the meaning of new grammar patterns and words. Beginner LNs readers are more prone to whitenoising. Better to wait until after N1 for LNs.

>>43585505
lol shut up noob

>>43585490
>what is ur issue the translation is fine
Thank you. My issue is that I'm still learning so straying away from what I thought was the main/only definition of 目 is really spooky. Especially because I'm trying to improve the translation, not provide a side-grade.

>>43585505
disagree a bit on the LN. I read また、同じ夢を見ていた a few months ago, and while I probably only understood like 70~80% of it, it was great. VNs can be boring at times

ln + audiobook is the superior method.
whitenoising is a mistake matt cultists made because he basically taught them to whitenoise for months while doing only rtk. you can fall into that trap with any media.

>>43585539
>because he basically taught them to whitenoise for months while doing only rtk

>>43585460
jp subbed anime is the best source of input for beginners
>>43585505 is generally not *that* wrong but for beginners anime is better because the language tends to be easier, moving pictures provide even more context and most importantly, every line is voiced as opposed to vns which tend to have a shitton of unvoiced narration

>>43585546
don't sign your posts homo

>>43585460
as long as you're listening and reading it doesn't matter.
>>43585505
Listening while you're reading at the same time is not listening, and your listening comprehension will go absolutely nowhere. This means VN's are not listening, they are reading.
So if you use VN's you will have to do something else on top of that to get some listening practice in as well.

>>43585539
>whitenoising is a mistake
but then I'll have to, gasp, pause.

>>43585559

YES. English courses and language schools are infamous for being shit worldwide.
Teachers aren't allowed to correct students because it 'stigmatizes' them or some retarded shit (don't want to lose that sweet tuition dosh). Also, the IPA apparently and phonology aren't part of the curriculum. And that's just the tip of the iceberg.
Supposedly the FCE (B2-level, aka intermediate) is "good." Yet ESLs can't handle sentences like "I do like music" because it's 'not taught.' It's frankly sad.

You’re right. I’m an idiot. I think I’ll always be dekinai when I make simple mistakes like that.

Starting from the fact that I've always thought I was pretty decent at japanese, started learning 3 years ago, may of 2019, passed the N2 last year summer of 2021 with a very good 164/180 score, thought I could probably ace the N1 pretty easily the last months. Until today.

I tried to read a Visual Novel (fate stay night) which I was really intereated in and it opened my eyes, where to start. I literally couldn't understand half of what I was "reading", or trying to read, holy shit, I google translated 2/3 sentences because of weird grammar and stupie sentence structure, and oh my god, so many new kanji and words as well, I thought I had mastered them and that I was almost done with it, but no, in about an hour, before I gave up, I mined more than 100 words and like a third of them had kanji I had never seen, like, yeah, I still find new kanji sometimes but not dozens of them like that, what the fuck. I know about 2000 kanji I'd say at this point but after checking the internet apparently around ~3000 is the amount the average educated japanese person knows. Holy shit. No no no no no. And they are complicated as fuck.

This experience opened a new world to me. There's so many layers of japanese. I spent time with anime, manga, some easier light novels, could read some news and social media posts and was just overall enjoying myself until I realized how far actual native level fluency still was. I never understood everything 100% of course, don't get me wrong, but it felt like I wasn't struggling too much. I don't know what to think. People told me that I probably wasn't as good as I thought I was. Do I really know anything even. In reality I can't even watch or read most shonen and seinen like Hunter X Hunter, Berserk, One Piece, Jujutsu Kaisen etc. yet without looking up sentences or a couple of words per episode/chapter. I mostly enjoy fighting series but they're so damn hard with philosophy and attacks and tactics and yoji and proverbs and super casual terms and shit. I thought I was still decent because I could get the gist of them but welp, I was just lying to myself.

Are ~10-15 hours a week, 1~3 hours daily of immersing and anki really not enough. I've done that for literally years already, how many more to go to be able to enjoy everything I want in japanese without it feeling like a pain. They told me that anything below 4~5h hours was barely anything if I wanted to reach native fluency, a kid learns a language through constant input throughout the day for like 7-8 years before reaching actual fluency but like, I'm not 3 year old, it should be easier for an adult, right? 5h+ a day is fucking crazy, is that what it really takes to learn a completely different foriegn language? Because we're basically starting from 0, like a newborn, so I guess what they told me was true. The only completely fluent foreigners I know are Matt vs Japan and Dogen, who've spent literally half of their lives learning it without breaks, is THAT what it takes? I guess many would be happy with my level but I want to understand and enjoy everything I want like I do in english, THAT is my goal. I don't know, I just don't know what to say. I just want this LEARNING PART of my journey to end already.

He never actually studied how the language works, just read things here and there and studied for the N2. He gives it away when admits he doesn’t understand everything he reads, which means he doesn’t have much of a grasp of the language outside of what he can guess.

manga lookup speed should be at 4 as proper tooling exists now. scanned LNs at 3 for similar reason.
some games are hookable, and otherwise you can use OCR just like for manga, so that should be at like 3 too.
"ease of language" at 5 for anime and manga and 2 for VNs is just dumb. moege is definitely easier for me to read than even something like Kaguya manga (and anime).
I'd probably bump input density to 2 for games, because there's a decent amount of text-heavy ones.
the takeways are good

>>43588945
This is the kind of autismal crap that only the japs would make or watch, but it's pretty good immersion for language learning.

it's like a scripted guy fieri's drive-ins diners and dives i don't see anything wrong with it

>>43589116
it's about general tendencies, of course there's exceptions to everything
the average vn is going to be harder than the average anime, but the monogatari anime is way harder than hanahira
you're probably right that lookups for manga should be higher but i wouldn't go to 4
mokuro is limited in available content and ocr tooling isn't that reliable, especially if you have lower quality scans which is often the case with raws, as well as being slower than yomichan lookups

youtube with subs is good too. you can use yomichan with youtube subs without any aditional configuration so thats nice

real question from /a/, how long would it take to learn enough Japanese to read raw manga?

every time I see a nice series that's not discussed because it's licensed and doesn't have regular scanlations, I think about learning, but I'm at the point in my life where I might have an hour or two every day at most balanced with work, kids etc.

>>43589527
one hour a day, hmm i would say in 30 years

if you can actually spend two hours every day it won't take that long
you just gotta spend it on the right shit
aka not grammar guides and anki

>>43589539
what's the right regimen?

>>43589527
>but I'm at the point in my life where I might have an hour or two every day at most balanced with work, kids etc.

that's basically my situation except i probably work more hours and have more kids than you. i think i was reading yotsuba within a few months after starting. also read other stuff like takagi-san, naruto, nagatoro, etc.

ofc it would definitely speed things up for you if you follow the right path: https://animecards.site/learningjapanese/

>ocr tooling isn't that reliable, especially if you have lower quality scans
do you have an example? like, pic rel is pretty low quality, but manga-ocr got the right balloon 100% correct on first try. and the vast majority of the scans I encounter are higher quality than this.

you guys are so stupid. without formal grammar study, you'll never pick up on certain grammar rules.
for example, how often do you hear an ESL say something like "if i am there i would speak to her"

>>43589968
for one, i'd understand what they meant
but your point is moot anyways because i don't intend to speak japanese

there's a huge spectrum of esls though, some are native level

yeah me im a native level ESL. some americans get so mad when they hear me speak english that they tell me my english sucks. but i know they're just hating because im popular with their women

anime has tons of shit you have to filter through (verbal tics, speech patterns, colloquial speech, etc.), and then you have slurred speech, shrill high-pitched voices, etc.

It's a double-edged sword. ESLs can't handle shit like "I do like ice-cream" because they're taught that "you only use do/does in questions REEEEEEEEEEEEEE"

We're talking about formal grammar study though. Hence it's a double-edged sword.

What's the closest thing to amphetamines? Caffeine doesn't really do it for me, it just makes it so I can't sleep, but otherwise I feel normal.

what is ぞうきんをかける supposed to mean?
I know kakeru can mean a million different things depending on what you use it with, but I cannot figure out which verb is it in this case
surely it's not just saying to hang the dust cloth, is it?

also, the lack of kanji is throwing me off quite a bit

>>43591740
but bro look at those badonkers

>>43591749
wiping something with a 雑巾

why not fuku

>>43591749
Whereas する always means to "do" something, かける always means to apply/put something on. So like the other anon said, you're wiping or mopping something with the dust cloth. The only reason it becomes a million different words in English is because we have a lot of ways of expressing that sentiment.

>>43591749
>what is ぞうきんをかける supposed to mean?
cleaning with a cloth
Mainly floors, walls, etc.

It's complicated, but it has two meanings.
Sweeping the floor with a rag
Hang the rinsed rag on a hanger to dry

>>43591765
>>43591803
is it still written with 掛?
because I was looking for something like wiping but couldn't find it
a ton of other verbs though, which I already knew it had
I even tried running it through a few translators, but none of them gave me a 'wiping with a cloth' for ぞうきんをかける.

unless it's a different kakeru not written with 掛.

what does VM and EM mean?

>>43591885
it means your verbal is < 110

crunchy roll gave out Duolingo premium and vice versa, my study routine is 1 episode of an anime every 1 or 2 lessons ;3

>>43591820
The sense of the word is broader than even these definitions, but if it helps, you could think of it as sense 11, "to apply," as in you apply the cleaning rag (to the floor).
Again, the verb really just means to put something into a certain state, so the translation depends on what we're doing to what and also the context of the statement. Like other anons pointed out, this phrase could also imply we're hanging up a rag, rather than using it to clean.

>>43591820
it just means かける bro it's not that deep. Imagine an esl reading all 50000 definitions of "get"

okay, I get it

deepl is still surprisingly bad at translating japanese into english.
it often gets the tenses, pronouns, and other grammatical subtleties wrong, it often gets words wrong or misinterprets the contextual meaning.

>test
/djt/ has taught me to look down on tests

>>43592098
i did
i've cleared japanese

a good test is a stream

a lot of people argue back and forth about the definition of fluency. some say it's subjective. they're wrong.

the objective definition of fluency is this: you've never made a mistake that anyone knows about. yup. i mean never ever. not even as a beginner. you misread a word in 2020 on stream? you're not fluent, and never will be, no matter what.

that's why people like tatsucuckHold are some of the only fluent people on earth, because they've never read anything in japanese and so have never made a mistake before

>>43592169
you care way too much about djt lol

picked up, thanks

If I'm learning a kanji and Jisho lists readings which it doesn't list any definitions for, is it generally safe to ignore those readings on the basis of them probably being too obscure to be useful anytime soon?
For example, 権 has listed readings of おもり、かり、はか、けん、and ごん.
Only けん and ごん seem to be common readings (けん much more so than ごん), with the other readings either having no listed words/definitions/usages, or having more commonly-used kanji for that reading.

>t. ~N3

>>43593414
Don't worry about it, just learn the words you encounter and you'll naturally pick up the readings that actually matter
It's not consistent enough to come up with a rule that applies to every kanji

>>43593414
the rtk
based

I wanna browse 2chan to improve my natural reading, but without a catalog its a paint to find threads im interested in, am I just stupid or is there really not catalog or list of threads?

Figured out after I posted I was watching with Chinese subs.

Anyone here ever read 2 VNs at once? The current one I'm reading doesn't have enough horny scenes in it

>>43593827
you could just try to use your horniness to push through reading a bunch of text to find those sex scenes. what are you currently reading?

maybe you can do what kamata did and just read nukige and edge for 8 hours straight while reading as much japanese as you can

literal who tripfaggot bringing up literal who nobodies

>>43593846
I'm reading Kanon, it's my first vn and it was listed as 'easy' on tmw site. however, im thinking of also installing nekopara.

I need to look into what nukige is... im so new to this sorry...

I think I やり過ぎた

レイプ

isekai rape cheat skill

>>43593865
>I need to look into what nukige is... im so new to this sorry...

nukige is just any vn that is primarily about jacking off to the sex scenes, so they usually have a lot of them. for example, try playing 闇の声. pic related, you literally send your two ladies at the top to try and corrupt or seduce the people visiting your mansion, and once they are corrupt enough you can recruit them and send them at the other people too

what i love about idols is how none of them are actually virgins.

remember to support your local rabuho industry

>素見 【ひやかし】

>>43593827
Then just alternate between your vn and a nukige
That's what nukige are for, it's not like someone can open one and focus on it until the very end right?

ぶっさ

does japan have an equivalent to scran or nosh?

A millionaire in japan is not very rich

how do u niggas immerse, i dont actually care about 99% of material that japs make, knowledge of the language is just a useful resource for the dumb shit im into, but if most of the shit in this language is shit i dont care to watch or read then wtf do i do, give up?

ya if u cant enjoy it then u already lost

if youre not reading vinnies youre ngmi simple

the biggest hit to my motivation everyday is browsing /djt/

call ur isp and tell them ur child is browsing a dangerous site called 4chinz and ask them to block the site

unironically yes

By the time I make it to japan i’ll be an oldcel
There’s no point, it’s over…

>>43596681
Search for random shit that draws your attention: e.g. did you know that onry grorious nippon has 4 seasons? Then pick some article poking fun at the meme and read.
Basically, read to glean info, not as if you had to write a book report to hand in afterwards. Do take note of grammar points, expressions, and structures that you found interesting for later reference.
