I'm looking for a hopefully cost- and signup-free service that'll transcribe JP for me on par with or better than youtube's built-in tool.
The audio's from some 18+ material and I figure if I just upload the audio to YT even on a private link then I'll trip some content flag.

What does it mean when people put empty parentheses at the end of a sentence? ()

>>43610830
do you use twitter to mine? how is twitter for immersion content?

do gaijin get harassed by yakuza in japan?

>>43610620
Look into OpenAI’s Whisper. It’s free and much better than YT’s transcription tool.

>>43610840
Good question.
I just follow some japanese accounts so that the language is always fresh in my mind for those times when I take an extended break from more long form japanese stuff like books or tv shows.
As long as there's a cute girl or interesting topic on my follow list, I always have a reason to come back to the language.

anyone here order manga from amazon jp? how often do they restock stuff? bought a series in bulk but 2 volumes right in the middle are out of stock. buying it used from a another seller or websites gives me astronomical shipping. amazon is the cheapest option for my 3rd world country

>>43612989
depends on the manga but if it's still being printed they restock fairly often

>>43613081

used to order stuff from japan a while back. they included little freebies like candy and key rings with the order. shit was based

if you go to japan, the japanese people want to find out more about your culture. this is why it is creepy when you obsess over theirs. it is not that it is bad per se, but if you obsess over their culture, they can't learn anything about yours.

for real though the chances of someone born after the 90s being able to cook are slim

>>43615173
matt..

sword art online is a rare isekai story where the protagonist actually makes it back to the real world.
in 90% of other isekai, the story either never ends or the protagonist chooses to stay

Lmao N7 level mistake. I sure hope nobody here mixes these up.

>>43615181
>go from loser wimp to overpowered chad blessed with unbreakable plot armor that allows you to overcome whatever the world throws at you
who wouldn't?
Also those pseudo-RPG settings are cancer. They're a mockery of a mockery.

sao isn't isekai

>>43615181
there's lots of those
the anime adaptations just always tend to end way too early to make it there while in sao it happens very early on

only isekai worth watching is mushoku tensei nuff said

the best isekai isn't an isekai
if you know you know

is it an iisekai

I like the Wholesome not-Putin with a riding fetish's isekai. It only got funnier with the war.

you think it's an isekai but the twist is that it's not

>>43615205
of course its an isekai. just because it doesnt have that stupid "get hit by a truck or die of a sudden heart attack, then get revived in medieval europe with a cheat power" doesnt mean its not isekai.

>>43615267
kamikatsu did the ol' final fantasy x isekai but actually its time travel switcheroo

redo of healer also isnt an isekai
its just time travel

love when anime onlys make sweeping claims about a genre they don't even like enough to watch let alone read.

well i read sword art online and its an isekai so

some people were isekaied but mc wasn't
but they altered their memories to think that they were but they're just a random dude from isekai land

any tips on feeling this one out?

>>43617836
In these cases you can always Google for an actual explanation instead of an attempt to translate into specific words
>おもむろに」は、漢字で表記すると「徐に」であり、「落ち着いてゆっくりと動作を始める様子」を表す言葉である。 しかし、実際のところ、「帰宅した妻は、急いで晩ご飯の支度を始めた。」 と表現したい時に、「急いで」のかわりに「おもむろに」を使ってしまうというふうな誤用がよくされる。

bros i never remember 求める vs 認める

>>43617852
I did google, but the explanation I found was that people in japan use it "wrong" 40% of the time... so that's wicked huh...

>>43617836
徐に
>あわてず、ゆっくり何かをすることを表わす。
>shows the realization of something in a leisurely way, without a hurry
That's the original meaning.
Weblio mentions the 'suddenly, abruptly' meaning is a more recent development.
>「おもむろに」とは、本来は挙動が落ち着いてゆっくりしているさまや物事がゆったりと起こるさまを意味する言葉だが、昨今では突然不意に何かを急に行う意味で使われることが増えている表現。
徐に originally refers to relaxed, lax behavior and things that take place slowly. However, in recent times, the meaning of bringing about something suddenly, unexpectedly, is seeing increasing use.

listen to japanese audio in your sleep for optimal gainz

listen to jrap then gradually move on the faster stuff until you can translate the lyrics to mmds in your head

>>43618884
3 hours per day isn't bad you'll definitely get at least n2 level under a year
Especially if you're doing like 8 hour binges on weekends in addition

you know kirito in sword art online quickly became one of the strongest players while most people lagged behind. there's no excuses either, everyone spent the same amount of time in the game. they all could have done what he did, but they didn't.
and when you think about it, real life is a lot like that. you could study japanese faster, more efficiently, more effectively, but you aren't.

kirito was basically a haafu who had parents that talked to him when he was a kid since he had prior knowledge of the game

kirito got dem bitches

he got all these bitches wanting his dick but stays faithful to asuna. what a man of convictions.

When someone says

referring to a seemingly randomly thrown together group of people, is the meaning of 謎 still the same or is there like a different connotation in that context?

its a shallow and abysmal abomination of a show that haphazardly throws together the most cliche and overused themes while making no attempts to connect them to the story and characters or develop and follow up on them but it is a testament to the quality of the formulas it blindly copy pastes that even in a brainless imitation they somehow shine through and hide the shows massive flaws well enough to appeal to a person watching their first anime

imagine writing all that

Help pls. What does she say?

op image is badly drawn though

>>43622950
she says she's being evicted by her yakuza landlord and she needs money

>>43622950
yabai she wants the chi (chinchin)

>>43622816
hopefully the schizos an herod

is simping for manko ok

>>43622950
she's saying kon (this) nichi (day) wa (topic particle)... she is then saying it again but with kanji instead of hiragana, perhaps to gauge your skill level. She is then asking if you are a jyunchou which means jyun (obiedient) and chou (tendency)

>>43623034
so is she asking me if she can dom me or something? why does she want to know if i'm obedient? will she put a collar on me? is there collar wearing nuance in that sentence?

>>43623045
i think in their culture this is basically like saying "hey how are you doing?"

How long should it take for me to get good enough to read Ango, Akutagawa, Souseki or Mishima?
I don't want to be some weeb pleb who just pours over shitty VNs all day for Japanese. I want to read actual good Japanese literature and not the slop.

i don't know sorry

>>43623321
as long as it takes to pick up a book and start reading now, nothing is stopping you

>>43623335
I don't know my kanjis though. I know that some of these authors are studied in high school by Japanese students, but do they have furryganas?

>>43623321
>I want to read actual good Japanese literature and not the slop.
says the guy posting with a danganronpa image
the sodomite character too at that

u dont read vns in order to learn japanese, u learn japanese to read vns

>>43623419
Chihiro isn't gay, he's just a crossdresser. Also I never said Danganronpa wasn't japslop.
>>43623448
I learn Japanese to play the untranslated Devil Summoner and SMT Nine games, I won't lie.

you dont learn japanese if youre a tripfag, unless its jamal

>>43623460
ok then just play those games... stop thinking of yourself as a "pleb" just because you dont read some plagiarized pulp fiction from 100 years ago like 吾輩は猫である

i don't read vns because i love the girls too much and i spend too much time looking at them instead of reading what they say

>>43623485
But I want to read those books, because I feel that it will help me get better at Japanese. Plus the English translations of these authors probably suck and they don't convey the original messages of the writers.
VNs are kind of sloppah and a medium for plebs mostly. Only a tiny bit more reading than manga and not as much as a crappy light novel.

interesting take from someone that's never finished reading a vn or an ln, and likely hasn't even read an english novel in some years

just downloaded and booted up omiai...
holy shit jap bitches are cute why can't i live there and marry one bros...

>>43623516
retard

reading vns? ew that's for plebs
i'm not a pleb i only read real books like genki textbook 1 and 2 and tae kim's guide to japanese grammar

>never finished reading a vn or an ln
If you count Danganronpa as a VN, I've read all of them. And UDG has a Danganronpa LN as an extra after you beat the game. Also finished Welcome to the NHK. DDLC is technically a VN too, but that's an English language one. I've also worked on doujin VN (never finished or released them). Also read some or Fate/stay night, a little of Higurashii, and a little bit of Umineko. But, I'm not a big fan of sitting in front of my computer and just clicking for hours on end. Honestly prefer JRPGs with visual novel elements like Persona more than an actual VN.
Of course, I haven't read an English novel in quite some time. Last time I really read a book was in elementary school and it was Percy Jackson, lol. Though I've tried reading Confessions of a Mask in English.

>>43623599
did you read any of those in japanese?

>>43623599
How can you be this stupid and yet live? How did you not die as a baby, considering that you were likely too stupid to find a tit to suck on?

>>43623611
no, because when I read them I didn't speak a lick of Japanese and I doubt they would be improved being in another language. Especially when I don't enjoy the *experience* of reading a VN. At least with a LN you get the tactile feeling of fingering a page in a book.
>>43623615
kys faggot. Not stupid. I actually got perfect marks in English classes and exams. Teachers praised my writing, and when I write essays for students they always are surprised that my writing is so good and they get high marks on their essays (especially foreign students). I am not stupid.

>>43623321
weebshit is the only thing that makes Japanese worth it. if you want good literature, you can learn to read French, Russian, Italian and 1-2 more in the same timeframe

teage

would VNs be enhanced by emulating the feel of reading a physical book?

>>43623655
>French, Russian, Italian
all influenced by christianity though. maybe i dont want to read christian literature

>>43623667
then just read the jap books you want to read
whats the issue?

>>43623655
french and russians are cultureless parasites. Yukio mogs any shitty frog author like Baudelaire, Ball Sack or Voltaire. Same with the pinko commie scum from Eastern Europe. Only America and Japan have good authors. Would read Henry David Thoreau, Twain, Edgar Allan Poe, H.P. Lovecraft over any frogspawn or russkie fucks.

>>43623667
Japan was westernized in the late 1800s

same except i'm not giving up

starting a jlpt grammar deck to work through when i'm not reading.
gonna do ten grammar points a day.
gonna pass jlpt n1 for the lol(i)s.

it personally took me roughly 2 years to stop worrying struggling moonrune readings. I can't remember nuances, distinctions, and the usage of words for shit though.

All shounen has furigana.
Move on to seinen.

what were you in for? did your ass make it safe?

75 more than me

It's officially been one year since I started mining. While objectively I've improved it doesn't feel that way since reading is still high effort. My goal for the next year is to actually read every day, and to get to the point where it's just something I do rather than force myself to do.

>>43624335
Have you read any VNs or LNs yet?

>>43623914
You should already be able to read everything by 500

>>43622346
jamal?

>>43624049
matt says you need thousands of hours of input to get a more precise sense of meaning, and that you'll need less total hours if you get 6+ hours of input daily.

>>43624419
jamal already got carried out of here on a stretcher

Matt can input whatever he likes, but I'm not falling for his scam. In fact, I'm gonna hit the Shinkanzen books.

>>43624416

That's just from manga.

>>43624468
What is says

When mining, do I really NEED an image and the audio of the sentence?

>>43624677
all pieces help with memory, giving your brain as many different ways to remember something as possible (visual, auditory, etc.)

i'd say audio is probably the most important though and easiest since it's built into yomichan automatically.

if you are mining full sentences then i'd also say having audio for those sentences is pretty important since otherwise you may misread parts of the sentence without knowing it

>>43624677
Only if you want to

>>43624698
I have forvo which gets me audio of the vocab word, but recording audio from the vn i'm reading is a pain (I have to advance one step, then click a button with my mouse, which lets me replay previous dialogue)

Also, the vn barely has any image change, so I just have hundreds of screenshots of the same character in the same pose, and I'm not sure how much taht helps

should i stop mining from the vn and just mine 'anime cards'?

yeah this guy is ngmi

>>43624722
>should i stop mining from the vn

yes, one of the biggest benefits of VNs (and LNs kinda) is that they are extremely text dense. so even without anki, if you spend an hour or two reading them per day then you will constantly see the same words over and over (it's like anki except natural and organic).

anime on the other hand is much less dense, but is way more dynamic and memorable, so they make for the best cards. and as luck would have it anacreon's anime cards script also makes it the easiest medium to mine from

anacreon is gay though

>>43624677
why not? takes 1 click once you set it up

>>43624760
But the best cards are from h-manga

why do they love the cat dude so fucking much

pretending anyone who thinks youre a noob (literally everyone btw) is a minifaggot again huh? doesnt change the fact that youre a fucking noob tho

still blaming ur boogeyman lmao u think we dont notice u use the same advertising techniques as that spamming retard

you forgot your trip schizo

huh? i was talking to the eternal "n3" codemonkey

how is that' "relationship" going btw

tripfaggot barges into the thread and screams dekinai shit at the top of his lungs and deludes himself into thinking anyone telling him to stfu and go away is one guy lmfao. this loser really thinks everyone who doesn't attention whore on pisscord doesn't do so because they don't have skill

ya hes pathetic we know

thread atmosphere is so much more peaceful and usable with filters crazy that i never bothered to do this until recently

if only u could filter anyone that responds to an attentionwhore

you can actually just gotta get the right filters

Why does everyone in this thread post using trannycase?

because japanese itself is all lowercase

>>43624994
>this loser really thinks everyone who doesn't attention whore on pisscord doesn't do so because they don't have skill
this, its an assumption thats baked deep into his pathetic psyche which is why he keeps linking that discorders interview. you can bet if ciaran had never gone on discord or become known by a name but still posted and solved impossible nihongo puzzles in the thread analtard would conveniently memory hole all of it.

that or he has enough cognitive dissonance to believe its impossible for anyone gud to think all the guides and advice he shills suck

>>43624867
homework...uh...doing it or not doing it, shredding?

stupid fucking quote typical bs from a woman

>>43625038
i really want to know, do you believe no anon in the thread is good, or do you believe no one good in the thread disagrees with anime cards and thinks discord personalities suck at japanese? which is it?

great minds discuss eceleb drama.
average minds discuss anki and rtk.
small minds discuss anime and vinnies.

>>43625068
can you rephrase your question

>>43625040
worse thing about him is he tries so hard to be like jamal but fails miserably and comes off cringe as shit

>>43625072
which of these two do you believe:
- no anon in the thread is good at japanese
- no one the thread who is good at japanese disagrees with anime cards and thinks discord personalities suck at japanese

ahem, excuse me? i've been paid to translate before so technically i'm a pro translator.
