it's funny. DeepL will arbitrarily produce better results when you translate japanese to either English (US) or English (UK).

I don't know where else to ask this because /lit/ and /his/ are shitholes and this seems like the best place.
Where can I find good academic history books or articles on the Nara period in Japan? I can read Chinese so any resource in English or Japanese is fine.
Also, is there a good resource for learning Japanese if I already am conversational in Chinese and can read their newspapers, or should I start from scratch with kana?

>>43697506
this is the absolute worst place to ask this question, i've tried something similar
>I can read Chinese
chinks need the rope

>>43697506
maybe ask on the chinese internet?

>>43697543
>>43697555
I'm not Chinese and I can't understand their written slang, it's like trying to decipher niggerzoomerspeak.

>>43697570
"people" who learn chink of their own volition deserve the rope

>>43697570
well you learned it for a reason may as well make use out of it :)

You need to read about 12,000 words per day to reach fluency. This means roughly 2+ hours of reading per day.

so can japanese women actually have pink nipples? it seems most have dark nipples, but i swear ive seen porn where some have pink nipples.

wtf is the difference between a クモの網 and a くもの巣? does くもの巣 refer to just anything the spider lives in (in most cases the web, but sometimes a burrow), while クモの網 is always the web? goo.ne.jp defines each as the other...

both mean essentially the same, but you'd use one over the other in different contexts

Can the Japanese read upside down like we can with English?

>>43698289
depends on their IQ. if you took that IQ test someone posted yesterday, you saw one of the tests was about rotating figures and recognizing if they're the same

>>43698329
So women can't read upside down?

>>43698336
you can't

Day 32: Just done playing FF4 and I'm getting closer toward the end of Sakubi.

I've been using core2k/6k along with playing text hooked VNs for a while now and I'm surprised that I'm already "done" with the deck, as in it's not giving new cards anymore. I guess I'll just build my own deck from here on out using whatever new words I find in my games.

>>43698424
How many new cards a day were you doing?

>>43697980
they bleach them only yt people have naturally pink nips

I'm making decent progress on building my vocabulary and grammar. but will still come across as a complete retard in conversation. Are there any decent AIs for both spoken conversation and written/typed conversation?
Google-fu reveals the existence of the latter, but I don't know which ones are half-way decent.

love reading about etymologies of japanese words

why do people say "learning a language is not a race" to people who talk about learning faster? Isn't it unequivocally better to learn a language faster if you can do so with the same effort? Is it just dekinai cope since they spent years doing Genki I & II?

pepo gonna pepo

i resent the fact that i never got to go to japan as a youngfag

>>43708118
part of it is dekinai cope
part of it is valid since a lot of people quit because they go full retard in the beginning and get burned out once the initial motivation runs out

>>43708186
Burn out is a cope too. I'd bet 99% of those people were going to quit anyway even if you gave them a structured well balanced schedule to learn with.

>>43708219
I bet 25% of them wouldn't if they paced themselves properly

if you're older than 23 it's just over and you should give up on everything

its better than ever thoever

the only thing you need to give up is the delusion that the things you seek would fulfill you, then you'll be fine

If you think about it learning japanese is like being a tranny.
If you want to learn kana, kanji, different words with their meaning you must practice it every day. If you don't practice it you forget and stop knowing japanese. Trannies must dilate every day. If they don't dilate, wound between their legs heals and they stops being trans.
That means japanese is for trannies.

imagine letting troons have that much control over your thought process

if u didnt use english every day ud forget it too

I've been learning japanese for 11 years now and still can't read a sentence.

you are now aware that Yomichan's japanesepod101 audio does not have a recording for 日本国 but does for ニガー

I'm in Kyoto rn. Apparently mikos are actual little girls wearing the white and red outfits.

the lower red part is called hakama

what is a good first VN that is 100% voiced? A lot of recommended VNs have voiced dialogue, but the narration is unvoiced.

never read a vinnie with voiced narration and i've read over 150 nukige by now

nigger

I can read Japanese just fine but I have no clue what the words actually mean

read manga for 3.5h today

me

I need to post more about this sometime, but my nihingo after doing my reps for 5 years, was enough for the tenchou to let me into k-otome(.com) aka 秒即DE舐めてミント. It was also enough for the girl.

the audio doesn't matter if you're not going to focus on it and replay it several times and repeat the sound in your head several times in an attempt to memorize the phrase/word/sentence. VNs are for reading. end of.

>learnjapanese subleddit is shutting down after corporate forced the cucked app and started charging for access via api
>jannies are quitting after doing it for free for over a decade
>they're gonna move to another site (which won't pull the same shit, we swear, honest)
api cucks get what they deserve

I think the red mikos are little girls, the green ones are teens or young women, and the blue ones are old women.

Can i read a lolige as my first vn?

i don't like how pacifism is pushed in s2 of vinland saga. it feels preachy and gay.

askeladd chose to live as a viking despite having hatred for their brutish ways and died in the end and told thorfinn to abandon his revenge quest. that was a more subtle and captivating way to tell a message about violence. the viking karate stuff is just homo...

pai-touch...

they're so fucking cute. japanese whores don't seem like whores because they're so fucking cute even though they definitely are whores.

the western world doesn't understand the attraction of innocence they just want full on sluts because they cannot appreciate subtlety

I've heard conflicting opinions about the 6k deck. Some say 2k is enough and to just mine after that, others say the 6k is still very useful and it makes reading way less painful than trying to read after 2k, even if it will be painful regardless. Should I do the 6k?

>>43710402
The core decks are just to help you start. Regardless of which one you choose, the rate of vocabulary acquisition from reading and listening will greatly outpace it and unless you're doing hundreds of new cards a day from the deck you'll end up at a point where most of the new cards are words you already know. You will be too good for it to matter in a few months, unless you try to complete a core deck before starting immersing. If you want my advice, just go with the biggest core deck and keep using it until nearly all the new cards aren't new to you anymore. At that point you know you've outgrown it and you'll switch to mining only. That's the most fun way if you actually enjoy anki

>>43709492
>A lot of recommended VNs have voiced dialogue, but the narration is unvoiced.
that's why vns are not the no.1 input in the official djt rankings
stick to jp-subbed anime for now
alternatively, the oreimo psp game is basically a fully voiced vn but you'll have to emulate it and it doesn't have porn

>>43710528
Which rentry is this from?

sometimes i come across a word and decide against mining it because its not very frequent, but it would be good to add like a +1 to it so if i come across it again i know to mine it. is there any plugin like this?

>>43710402
Any frequency list will run into the same issue with being coloured by its source material. For the most common words it doesn't matter because you're definitely going to need shit like "up" and "very" immediately. That's why it's recommended to start reading whatever you're personally interested in so that every word you encounter is by definition relevant to you.

Second of all the cards have a sharp drop in quality after the 2k mark.

Consider the following cards
2998 従業員 employee, worker
2999 雇用 employment
3000 実績 achievement, performance
3001 業績 achievement, performance(yes the given definition is the same as the previous card)
3002 応募 application
All business focused stuff because it's based off newspapers
3804 俺 I, me
Most common male pronoun that you'll encounter in chapter 1 of Yotsuba.

does someone have a script that will automatically save an image taken with alt+printscreen on windows? i just want to save screenshots of my active window, but alt+printscreen just copies it to the clipboard.

no. it's ugly.
>>43710528
i would also recommend those youtube manga videos for beginners
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cGnXZ8F3vrQ
combine these with manga_ocr, and they're basically as good as subbed anime.

i have a 2k deck and i just downloaded a 6k deck but there are only 4k cards in it. does it mean i dont have to worry about missing cards and it just auto deleted duplicates or what

>>43710589

well, at least they have the balls to shut it down for good this time, unlike when a certain black man couldn't breath so they kept it down just for 24 hours to solve racism

This mo**way guy doesn't know English or Japanese. He's an ESL who spends all day spamming his poorly written "guide" on 4chan so that people give him money on Patreon. Pretty pathetic.
If you want to learn Japanese, follow people who actually know jack shit when it comes to learning a foreign language. Tatsumoto's guide to Japanese is among them.

All "Core" Anki decks are based on newspapers from early 90s and sometimes additionally sorted in a way that makes learning harder. The format of the cards also tends to be WCC instead of a more efficient TSC. Ankidrone Starter Pack is made from a COMPLETELY different corpus ー everyday words used commonly in Japan. You should get Ankidrone Starter Pack.

It seems that in Kagawa prefecture you can only play games for one hour a day.

another japanese deck before bed and geography thirty minutes before reset (6am)

Am i doing something wrong? Im 1.2k words into 2k6k and daily reviews are taking over 1.5 hours, im only doing 10 words a day. Feels like the reviews keep piling up, it used to take 30mins.

yeah that’s not normal check your settings

lets enjoy kagawa life!

bet yall cant read 鸊鷉

Can anyone give me alternate (if there's alternates) meanings of aku/あく? Writing this in hiragana because the Jap Pokémon games use hiragana for what is called the "Dark" type in English, and Bulbapedia claims it means "evil". I could be wrong but I have a hard time believing they're calling this many Mons evil. Pic not a dark type

It means bad/evil yeah, but can also refer to mischievuousness and trickery
悪戯
意地悪

>>43710870
bro that's why sentence mining is so great...

Why the fuck would I need to know that

>>43715919
So is the idea maybe that it's a pun/meant to vague? (Now it makes me wonder about the English name too, but I'll assume that's a "dark deeds"/"dirty trick" sort of thing.)

>>43716264
it's not a fucking pun it just means that they are pokes prone to tricking the opponent and playing dirty

>>43716264
Not a pun, not meant to be vague. It's just 悪 which doesn't have an exact English equivalent. Read something where cute girl calls the protagonist 意地悪 every time he teases her, or notice people saying 趣味が悪い when someone indulges in a bit of schadenfreude for example and you'll get a better feel for its less heavy side. Notice how incineroar is like the bad guy in a pro wrestling lineup who resorts to dirty tricks. That's why he's 悪 instead of 格闘, not necessarily because he's evil
