/jp/ - Otaku Culture

I thought I was finally going to read a chapter with no new words but one snuck in near the end.

finally forced myself through volume one of kuma kuma kuma bear. don't like how it is written so i will be dropping it here.

i need to read more

i need to listen more

How am I supposed to interpret the ~てくる pattern? Looking it up it implies a movement towards the speaker either literal or not, but I'm encountering it in the context of this short anime:

It's used between gags when commenting on something that happened, but I'm not sure how I'm supposed to interpret it.

iq isn't even real bro. it's like saying your strength is 97 or your hunger is 42. stop believing in imaginary measurements

are there any shitty anime streaming sites with japanese subs? I don't like downloading anime

>>43764281

>>43764063
it's even dumber, because compared to IQ, strength and hunger are much more concrete concepts. it'd be reasonably fair to refer to strength as the concrete ability to push, pull and lift heavy things. but IQ only refers to the ability to do nothing in particular, which is just a contradiction. it refers to "problem solving", but never to solving any actual problem, because then it stops being "IQ" and starts being simply "the ability to do X".

>>43764487
>it refers to "problem solving", but never to solving any actual problem
it solves the problem of wanting to get a high score in an IQ test

>>43764281

Any reccomondations of games with text on a simple background that only continue after I press a button? I am using game2text and yomichan to easily translate words in games for me to learn the vocab ( sometimes I use deepl to help when the sentence structor is too foriegn to me) and I want to have something to play after I finish yo-kai watch.

my sneak is 100

>>43764748
adapt to what? the ability to adapt to X and the ability to adapt to Y might overlap, but they aren't the same thing. so to truly measure a general ability to adapt you'd have to 1) measure the abilities to adapt to every particular thing, and 2) to combine them into a single measure using some objective weights.
but 1) is not practical, so in reality you'll have to cherry-pick according to some arbitrary criteria, and 2) is impossible because there aren't any objective weights of importance of different abilities, because the relative importance of abilities differs depending on a particular goal. so in practice you'll have to use weights arrived at using some arbitrary criteria.
so in the end what you'll get won't be something that merits the name of "the measure of the general ability to adapt" but at most something like "one of many possible arbitrary measures mildly correlated with the abilities to adapt to a cherry-picked set of concrete things". but the problem is that in the popular conception IQ is much more like the former, while in reality it's much more like the latter.

not reading that

>>43764805
visual novels

>>43764828
let's say you made a "lifting quotient" of straight up (pounds you can squat) + (pounds you can benchpress) + (pounds you can deadlift). add these up to get your raw score. then take group wide measurements, norm it by finding the mean and sd, then set mean pounds to LiftingQ = 100 and +1SD at = 115.
all of the arguments you said against IQ would apply to LiftingQ, but LiftingQ would still be a pretty good measurement of how strong you are.

@moe

>>43764888
god iq deniers constantly get fucking spanked. they are such little science denying ideological turds.

>>43764888
>all of the arguments you said against IQ would apply to LiftingQ
they technically apply, but to a much lesser degree as the measured category becomes narrower. because measuring just a few lifts will roughly cover virtually all possible kinds of lifting. but for the category of all possible intelligence-related abilities you won't be able to do something similarly restrained, because it's significantly more broad than the category of just all possible expressions of lifting.
and then the fact that you're arbitrary weighing just 3 results will introduce much less arbitrariness than if you were arbitrarily weighing let's say 100 results from tests of different abilities sampled from the set of all concrete intelligence-related abilities.
so when measuring IQ you're bound to introduce a significantly more arbitrariness than with LiftingQ, either through cherry-picking a smaller proportion of concrete abilities to test, or, if you pick a larger proportion, from having to come up with arbitrary weighs for a larger amount of factors when calculating the final score.
which is why defending LiftingQ doesn't contribute very much to the defense of IQ.

I am getting filtered by a VN rated 4/10 on JPDB. I rode the tune too much. However it will not turn into air spirit. The intention of stopping reading does not exist.

what does the O form for verbs do?
Example:
normal:Nigeru
Te form: Nigete
rude do it now form: Nigere
But what form is Nigero?
I saw it in the lyrics of a song, just mispronunciation or some grammar rule?

>>43765303
command

>>43765303
Bro just skim Tae Kim, it's commanding. Nigeru = run Nigero = Telling you to run

>>43765306
>>43765316
So Nigete can be used for commanding, Nigero can be used for commanding and Nigere aswell...
So te form is polite, nigero an order, and nigere the rude form.

ok that makes it clearer, any reason why ichidan verbs not also just become re?

sorry but i'm not learning which verbs are which

you don't have to learn it at all

>>43765505
maybe subconsciously

>>43765516
right ichidan verb is ending in u with either an i e or u vowel sound before that and anything else is godan.
I still struggle with identifying on the fly even if I know the rule occassionally

>>43765685
it's a mixed bag. Urianger and some of the Demon-type characters are a bit harder to understand but it becomes easier once you start seeing the patterns. I recommend starting from the very start of the game rather than an already existing character because a lot of the concepts/terms in regards to the story/lore aren't immediately obvious

Is it true that only 2500-3000 kanji is fluent level or is it more?

one time i was pretending to be a girl in an internet chatroom. some arab guy tried to hit on me, and i told him i dont like arab guys, and he got really butthurt, so i blocked him. then he was so butthurt he made a new account and messaged me again to insult me.

>>43766191
around 3000 is native level
though the number of kanji isn't really that important it's more about how many words you have acquired

>>43766210
I understand that. I was just trying to determine how many more kanji I'll be needing to learn.

>>43766191
the average literate native knows around 4000-4500, but this includes about 500-1000 kanji mostly used in names

source?

my japanese friends told me

if you just google around most people say around 3000 is what the average jap knows
but at the end of the day it's all guesswork i don't think there's an actual study on it

How do I learn listening? Do I just watch stuff with the subtitles turned off?

>>43766521
depends on how much japanese you know

>>43766521
that only works if you're already good enough so that it's not white-noise
if you still suck just watch more jp-subbed anime, unless you cover your ears it will still improve your listening slightly
but yeah eventually you wanna watch raw raw (and consider listening to audiobooks and podcasts and shit, but only if you like that stuff)

dunno why i wrote raw twice there

the only way to use jp subs is to keep them off until you get filtered by a line and then turn them off again after reading the line

"good at reading but bad at listening" doesn't exist
if you gave those people a basic written vocabulary usage test like choosing 気象 vs 天候 correctly in context they would fail because they're only guessing from kanji and haven't acquired the word for shit

>>43766521
compress the episodes you watched so that only the dialogue is there and there is no white noise and use it as passive immersion

>>43766653
yea and anki doesnt test this its so funny when retards talk about how reading is improving their """retention""" when all that happened is they became better at kanji recognition and readings

>>43766804

see >>43766539

>>43766653
you can be good at reading relatively to your listening, even though you're not good at reading in absolute terms.
also you don't strictly need to learn kanji readings in order to distinguish nuances between words. you can acquire that just by encountering those words in many different texts.

>>43766852
dno why i forgot to write flawlessly at the end

>>43766853
>even though you're not good at reading in absolute terms
that's not possible even relatively, if someone can make out japanese well in text only that means they haven't acquired those words and are winging it when they read otherwise they brain would auto-fill the word when they hear it in the right context. if you ask them questions in any format that test their understanding of the word you will see the cracks

>>43766835
recognition is different from recall.
are we getting multiple choice on the usage test? easy. do you need to recall it from the void? not easy (unless you've used the word before, or come across it fairly often)

Day 38: Oof today was very easy with telling time because I already familiar with the word so this session was easy.

for me, it's that sometimes lines will sound like noise or not very clear, but when I turn the subs on and listen while reading, I can hear the words very clearly. my brain just hasn't made those words clear enough in audio only contexts yet. so I figure it's the same for the other anons

stay hydrated bros. it has been shown to improve acquisition

>>43766917
yeah that literally means you don't know the context usage of those words properly and wouldn't do well on a vocabulary usage test

is お大事に used in the same way as the english "get well"?

take care of yourself, that water bottle is ginormous.

>>43766938
kind of its more like "take care of yourself" and short for 体を大事にして下さい

yep raw anime is based and exposes the scammers

>>43766943
okay well im not going to give you any of the patreon money if you do not do that.

>>43766897
>if someone can make out japanese well in text only that means they haven't acquired those words
sure, but "make out japanese well in text" is just a roundabout way of saying "read japanese well", where by "read" I mean "look at and comprehend the meaning of (written or printed matter) by interpreting the characters or symbols of which it is composed."

does anyone know of a list of anime arranged by the scope/difficulty of vocabulary?

while that and the other anons' suggestions are fine, what i do is have something like morphman in anki run over a bunch of anime sub files that i'd be interested in watching, see which ones are the easiest for me, then watch those while working my way up to the harder ones

>>43767059
>morphman
good call. that name gives me nukemarine koohii forum ptsd though.

>>43766989
getting a vague idea of what the word means and filling in the rest is very easy when you have written context and kanji for hints, but if you can't make the words out in audio (where the only difference is you don't have these hints as a crutch) it means you are guessing those words all the time while reading

you're not going to find anyone who complains about listening doing well on questions which ask you to choose between words that vaguely seem similar

how do i bond with my boss? he's not an otaku so we share no interests

>>43767085
what if they are proficient in reading hiragana-only japanese twitter?

>>43767103
does he like prostitutes

>>43767085
it's not guessing. you are taking advantage of the additional context clues (kanji, etc).
you just explained how people are better at reading than listening, good job.

>>43767127
im not sure, should i ask him?

>>43766897
>>43766989
but I'll grant that it needs to be explicit that we're talking about just reading comprehension, because even though the definition doesn't say this, it's normally implied that if you can read something, you can also communicate it to someone next to you who knows the language but doesn't know the characters.
so if you're talking to a layman, it probably wouldn't be correct to just say "I can read Japanese well" in that case. but if you're talking to someone who knows it's likely that you're a NEET who's only interested in reading lns all day, then I think it'd be fine to say it.
>>43767085
>it means you are guessing those words all the time while reading
yeah but not their meanings. if I've seen "体" in 10000 different sentences, I won't be guessing when I see it for the 10001st time
>you're not going to find anyone who complains about listening doing well on questions which ask you to choose between words that vaguely seem similar
I think there is at least one maniac who's read like 500 novels and hasn't listened to anything. but I guess he wouldn't complain about it. he would maybe complain if he's deaf, but not like that

>>43767147
might be worth a shot

>>43766521
i remember someone here saying to keep using jp subs until you get to a point where you can finish sentences before the VAs finish voicing it. that's when you know you're ready to go raw

>>43767116
if they can read many different types of tweets originally written in that format in a wide variety of contexts then yeah they are definitely better at listening than someone who can't
>>43767134
being disadvantaged by the lack of additional context clues is prime evidence that you are guessing (just writing "additional" almost constitutes an admission on your part)

>>43767186
>guessing
stop using this word.
i agree that kanji provide additional context upon which past experience with other written words will help offer clues to the meaning of the current word in question.
i agree that if you want to improve your vocabulary, relying on kanji is not good and puts you at a disadvantage.
i do not agree that
>"good at reading but bad at listening" doesn't exist
the fact that people can rely on the additional context of kanji makes it possible for someone to be good at reading, but bad at listening.
i don't give a fuck if they know the word as well as someone who can pick it up via listening only. that's not what we're debating.

if someone is ,,good at reading," they shouldn't do poorly on a vocab test. if they do, then they're a tard and are not good at reading; i'll agree with you there.

what would you think if a colleague asks you if you like prostitutes?

>>43767311
i would think he's based and go gangbang some mongers together

>>43767311
i would ask her how much

>>43767290
when people say they are good at reading but bad at listening they very often don't know how poor their reading comprehension is or how much they are compensating by guessing from kanji and written context. as you said, they shouldn't do poorly on a vocab test, but they would, so they aren't good at reading. this seems to contradict what you said earlier
>the fact that people can rely on the additional context of kanji makes it possible for someone to be good at reading, but bad at listening
how? if the reliance only helps you guess enough to get a vague idea while reading and fill in the rest but doesn't help you on a vocab test then it doesn't make you relatively better at reading

>>43767311
depends if we're cool or not

>>43767407
retard.
the way people speak is very different from how they write.
written language is very clean, while spoken language can be messy, with people stuttering, slurring their words, mumbling, speaking incoherently because they dont have their thoughts collected, or there can be background noises making it hard to hear what someone says.

listening is a very different skill than reading

>>43767407
>guessing
>guess
there's that word again.
it's not fucking guessing when you're relying on other words that you know that use the same kanji. you are inferring the meaning。
>vocab test
fuck off with that shit. real life isn't an exam.

>>43767369
i dropped this manga
he was a based autist for only the first 2 chapters and then he just became a regular passive retard

>>43767407
>>43767429
why does
>the fact that people can rely on the additional context of kanji makes it possible for someone to be good at reading, but bad at listening
if the reliance doesn't help them do well on a vocabulary test (which they should do well on if they are good at reading)?

>>43767438
same. sometimes manga have these marketing gimmicks that are dropped after 2 chapters, and this is definitely one of them.

>>43767423
>written language is very clean
not always
>listening is a very different skill than reading
no its the same skill. all the things you mention exist on a spectrum in all audio and the only reason we are able to understand spoken language is because the brain is able to filter out the noise when it knows the language. the entire difference between your tolerance for all those things in your native language and in japanese is the extent of your unfamiliarity with the words you can't hear in japanese

>>43767517
I often struggle to understand songs lyrics in my native language because the music, intonation and speed make it hard to get how do you explain that genius?

it's not that uncommon to be able to make out a word you've acquired from text the first time you hear it in audio, but this shouldn't happen if listening were a fundamentally different skill compared to reading

>>43767569
if you knew your native language, your brain would just auto-fill the words

>>43767569
songs are often sung in ways that would be considered unnatural for normal language communication so that isn't a good comparison. it's also true that, all else kept the equal, lyrics that are closer to normal speech are easier to understand. if you listen to many songs that have a similar style of writing you will get better at making out lyrics in those kind of songs because your brain becomes more familiar with those forms of expression

>>43767617
so unlike reading you have to train your brain to understand the different ways language can be spoken, almost like it's a different skill?

>>43767439
a vocabulary test isn't reading.
owarida。

>>43767640
i can come up with midwit analogies too. you will have more difficulty reading messy handwriting if it's using unfamiliar words or an unfamiliar style, like listening. almost like it's the same skill

i don't know why the idea that the brain understands spoken language using contextual prediction is controversial. when you first start learning japanese, even basic words are a struggle. the fact that you can quickly start hearing basic japanese in the beginning despite not listening much just by reading and studying the language shows it really is familiarity with language and the contexts in which phrases and words are used in that almost entirely affects your listening comprehension

there is noise in speech just like how there is noise in text but in both cases the brain can filter it out and its ability to filter out is almost entirely dependent on your familiarity with the language

>>43767680
okay, so you instead contradicted yourself here >>43767290

sdfu

why did matt try to force yoga to sign his mom's nda

the basic point is simple: for normal audio, being able to make out everything you heard is a relatively good indicator of comprehension because of how the brain makes sense of speech. for text, you need specific questions to test reading comprehension because just reading out the characters on the page and having a hazy idea what the text says from the overall kanji isn't a relatively good indicator

and you won't find people who have good reading comprehension but poor listening comprehension

>>43767858
see >>43767831

>>43767866
matt either distrusted yoga from the beginning or knew how yoga was perceiving him and his actions and that it could lead to the kind of standoff we all saw

hidden shit

should i buy some donuts today?

>>43767882
but matt wasnt pulling his weight
shouldnt he have been grateful that yoga was doing all the work

anyone here

>>43767909
i don't know, but he probably convinced yoga that his productivity issues were temporary and signing would benefit both of them equally. it didn't because matt was the face of mia and would take away more of the brand value if they go their separate ways, and matt knew this.

he might have also taken advantage of the nda by becoming complacent and less willing to work on his issues, thinking that even if yoga started resenting matt that he would realize some time in the future he has more to lose than matt. matt predicted if yoga would leave, it won't be until he has established himself enough. he must've thought that would take some time and he would see it coming and that by then he would have either worked out his issues (if he genuinely intended to work on them) or found a substitute for yoga (if he was using just using yoga), but yoga behaved unexpectedly and caught him by surprise

ここにいないよ

>>43767973
dame lazy matto really tried to strong arm his friend who was doing all the work.
you hate to see a friendship end like that

>>43767975
whomst

>>43767989
i wouldn't necessarily say that. as with most things, it depends on matt's true intentions - knowing yoga's personality and low tolerance for bullshit when it came to professional work, was he just afraid and safeguarding himself against aggression as he struggled with his issues? maybe he did think he'll get over it and it's just a temporary situation. or did matt really intend to abuse yoga as long as he could and eventually replace him?

as an outsider, it's hard to tell just from his behavior and actions that were made public

>>43768035
matts later manipulative behavior towards doth, his critics, and his infamous project uproot certainly lean my opinion in a certain direction

>>43768086
i don't know anything about what happened with doth. if he has critics he also has supporters, and a lot of his criticism comes off as personal and targeted. i hold a neutral position

i used my racism powers to know that he was up to no good

>>43768155
is it unreasonable to criticize him as a person as he is a public figure? he doesnt seem to be a particularly upstanding character

yooo tengoku daimakyou was crazy this week
a goddamn rape scene?? shit

>>43768300
really makes u think about the message they want to send to japans youth

I finally programmed a Hiragana learning mode to my Learn Japanese Grammar game!

It now caters to absolute beginners to Japanese and carries them to eventually N1 grammar.

Screenshot of it attached

If anybody needs a game to learn Japanese with, this is the one! It also teaches Japanese spirituality such as reincarnating into Japan.

It's free during alpha testing and you can alpha test it here: https://www.byond.com/games/Mistamage123/Phantasma

You'll need to install BYOND, which you can do so here: http://www.byond.com/download

damn the reddit being gone has really brought people advertising their shitty games on djt

>>43768455
let me guess, 2 weeks?

where the fuck did frufi go anyway

no its been gone for a few days

only woman i knew irl that browsed 4chan was a fat chinese chick that was really into attack on titan on /a/

>>43768646
that article doesn't have anything to do with free software though
they is not a singular genderless pronoun in english

>>43768640

sad, shows that he's just another follower except for his novel 'pers' recommendation

women don't make free software though

I'm sorry but I'll take the Oxford Dictionary over the Harvard Eats-Shit-From-His-Foot Man

>>43768715
that's not what he wants either. your rights are not given away in freely licensed software. and it's free as in freedom, not free as in free of charge.

>>43768741
anything that follows the 4 freedoms has to be free of price though, otherwise how can the software be modified by anyone?

i think the free and open source ideology is too idealistic

LMAO that guy can't even watch a video on youtube. is this the power of free software?

>>43768763
the source code should be free of charge. binaries for distribution and support don't need to be

>>43768801
aka give away your software for free (let anyone access modify and distribute the source code)
just admit your hero is a spiritual commie who eats his own foot junk and will die broke. emacs is pretty nice tho

>>43768788
absolutely based response from stallman

>>43768220
what is reasonable entirely depends on who you ask. i agree there is grounds for suspicion so i wouldn't blindly trust him. i am also less inclined to listen to people who have a vendetta against him and seem deranged, but of course that doesn't mean i think he's innocent. i guess its normal to go with your gut feeling in such cases
given my own experience with seeing social media witchhunts i've come to automatically be biased against most of them and perceive them as unchecked cancel culture: incendiary and manipulative hate campaigns targeting the lowest common denominator and using every psychological trick in the book to comically vilify and depersonalize the figure being attacked that exploit the natural propensity of people to form lynch mob herds that jump the jury process and go on hypocritical crusades. any time i spot one of the manipulative warning signs characteristic of these deplatforming campaigns and see cliques desperately spearheading targeted attacks it sets of alarm bells in my head. the number of these campaigns and the number of the kind of people they allegedly target doesn't seem to add up at all in my mind and for that reason my standard for evidence against matt is that much higher

>>43768819
the source code is free of charge. not necessarily binaries or support for the software

>>43768846
if only there was a free way of turning source code into binaries......

wat if reddit actually dies for a long time

>>43768857
can you expect the average person to be able to build complicated software?
software support is where large software companies make their money anyway. and that's why you see google microsoft intel etc. open sourcing their projects nowadays because selling copies of software is not what makes big money

>>43768881
then im leaving 4chinz forever

>>43768889

if you weren't such a broke stallman bootlicker you'd have the money to pay for gpt 4 and realize how broke your codemonkey ass is going to be in a few years

>>43768987
oh my you were actually serious? you can't reliably use chatgpt to solve, for example, obscure cmake errors that only occur on your system.
(i'd also like to point out that free software is quite the opposite of bootlicking)

you can't hold an ai accountable because you can't kill them so you need people to work that can be pinned when things go wrong

who do they kill?

youre next

the kids.

who has been out of a job due to ai in the past 5 years?

>>43769230
this is why ai will replace you
only jobs will be ai supervision

>>43769266
alright let me know when ai can finally drive a car without running someone over

>>43769286
the heavy lifting will be done ai and companies will only hire people to oversee and do the final checking, 70% of coding jobs will disappear
