Does anyone else have the problem where if you hear a Jap say a word you don't recognise at first it's fucking impossible to make out what syllables they're actually saying so you can look it up? I have to rewind over and over again when I'm watching anime to try and decipher what sounds a Jap's saying and a lot of the time I just end up giving up because I can't make it out at all

I think I got the light scripts figured out, but they seem to use some kind of nonstandard encoding sometimes. Do you happen to know if anyone has a mapping for that?

A particular example is a point in kaijiri.txt where it goes
>言語として認識できない別世界からの妖言は、しかしなぜか、そこに込められた想いだけは感じ取れた。
before and after that, there's dialogue with non-unicode text in it. An example is (right above that text):
>E3 80 8C 06 14 06 07 06 26 06 14 06 1F 06 2A 20 06 07 06 20 06 1A 06 39 06 2A 06 26 06 28 06 23 06 03 06 12 06 08 06 0C 06 02 06 06 06 27 E3 80 8D
which starts and ends in dialogue quotes but contains data that isn't normal utf-8 text of any kind. The 06 come before every single character that's coded in some some other kind of encoding, and each such character is packed the same way as utf-8 but doesn't correspond to a sensible character from unicode. If I just throw away the 06s I get control code stew.

Unfortunately, every game is bad for learning Japanese more or less, aside from RPGs and whatnot which may as well be VNs in between battles. There's a lot of idealism I see about learning Japanese through games but it almost always ends up with learning a tiny bubble of relevant Japanese and then just playing the game instead of learning. The only games that are really good to learn from are RPGs but like I said, those may as well be VNs given all the dialogue they have.

People DO necessarily speak in correct English. If a native speaker says it, thinks its right, and didn't say something they didn't mean to say, it is correct. By definition. Whether or not you understand it is unrelated, but most likely you're just an antisocial fuck and only know the dialect used in your own home, if you have one.

To be honest it's just laziness on my part. I'm simply not accustomed to how speech flows so words all blur together for me into sounds. There are also a few English words that I use, but don't know how they are pronounced, since I never bothered figuring it out.

If I bothered more with American or British TV content I would probably get used to it quickly, with subtitles at first.

That's what I was saying. People will use words out of context and phrases that don't mean anything casually all the time, though more educated will think about their word choice more carefully. Shit like "For all intensive purposes" or "Could care less", or even "could of", "should of", or "would of".
Hell, the word "impact" wasn't even formally recognized as a verb until recently. In TV shows and movies this kind of speaking is generally weeded out.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096779
none of those things you just listed are word choice. they're literally pronunciation. your problem is literally the fact that people aren't fully speaking out words that nobody ever actually fully speaks out. "could of" isn't what they're saying, they're saying "could have". i'm sorry, but anon's assessment of you being an antisocial prick seems like it was completely right.

If they actually were slurring "could have" nobody would write it as "could of".

[Anonymous No.]

"could care less" is an established idiom and means "that's something I can care very little about", not "I care so little that it's impossible for me to care less"

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096786
But that's not "correct" English, which is what my original point was. You do get used to common colloquial phrases but more uncommon ones are difficult to understand even if you are fluent. Not to mention people will jumble words together, get nuances wrong, slur words in a weird way. Not just in English, but in other languages too.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096798
>>17096801
sorry misread your post and posted the wrong prefabbed response

"could of" is a pronunciation-spelling, not a misinterpretation of which word is there. they're saying "could've" but people hate contractions.

>>17096803
there's literally no such thing as correct english. maybe you should have a basic level of respect for your native language instead of pretending that your weird mental version of it that you learned by being antisocial and not interacting with people is how other people are supposed to talk.

I understand how language works, I'm just pointing out the obvious difference between the way of speaking you hear on TV or podcasts than what you hear on the street.

Passive verbs describe what is done to someone/something from the viewpoint of said someone/something.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096816
A passive verb is a verb where the original logical object of the base verb is acting as the subject instead of the object.

ケーキが食べられる
The cake gets eaten

If you want to mark the original logical subject of the base verb, you use に. Be careful, に can also mark the indirect object of the base verb.

魚が猫に食べられた (this is an unusually uncommon sentence that's common in grammar texts)

[Anonymous No.]

"Couldn't care less" and "could care less" are two different sayings. One is literal and the other is sarcastic. The sarcastic one is said with a sarcastic tone.

>I couldn't care less.
It is impossible for me to care less about this than I do.
>I could care less.
Oh, yeah, as if there's anything in the world I could possibly care less about than this.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096816
They are different from Indo-European passive verbs in that they can be used with a direct object (をば), or basically in that they are a little less grammatical and a little more context-driven, if that makes sense. The action is still passive. Sometimes the passive form of a verb is identical to its potential form, but the appropriate meaning is only one.

>I'm just pointing out the obvious difference between the way of speaking you hear on TV or podcasts than what you hear on the street.

Textbook English is literally harder to understand, not easier. Nobody agrees on the nuances of "correct" English grammatical constructions. Everyone agrees on the nuances of colloquial constructions.

>which is why colloquial phrases and overly passive sentences are generally looked down upon in media.
Nobody worth their salt looks down on colloquial phrases. Overuse of the passive is a problem in *written* English, not speech.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096836
This is just the way that japanese expresses passives with prepositional objects, like "I was sat next to". Japanese verbal syntax doesn't have room to find a way to express the syntax of moving the prepositional object into the subject position, therefore the preposition is just not included in the final statement, but this is still the kind of statement it is, not some weird unspeakable exotic thing.

When they do it means "I could easily care very little about this", not a failed attempt at saying "I care so little about this it's impossible to care less".

I googled "I could care less" for the last 24 hours and nothing like that came up. Examples:

>This little girl could care less about Snow White.
>He even admitted it himself, he could care less whether or not he loses a client as there's always more to work with.
>I could care less about the resources.

>Try asking Cletus from Florida whether he's just slurring "could have" when he says "could of".
They're not saying "could of". They're saying "could've". And yes, they do know that it corresponds to "could have", and that it's a contraction. They really do.

Sure they do. That's why they write it "could of". They must be doing it ironically.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096877
Actually what's running through their subconscious is "hmm, where's that phrase I need in this situation, ah, yeah, that one". They don't care about the actual meaning at all. It's just a speech act, and it's perfectly valid no matter what's going through their particular head, because whatever they do is necessarily correct.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096914
The fact that they slip in a ʌ before the v to make it easier to say doesn't mean they're saying the word "of". They don't even think they're saying the word "of".

When they go to type "could of" (which I never said wasn't wrong, I should add), they're typing that because writing things the way you pronounce them is natural. Not because they think the word there is "of".

Even if a kid who's still learning to read and hasn't learned about contractions yet interprets it as the same "of", there is no part of their mind that considers it to have the same lexical function. The inflexibility of natural human language acquisition does not allow them to consider it to be the wrong word. It's *legiterally* impossible. Words are lexical functions, not spellings.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17096914
the fact that you humor the possibility that they actually think they're saying "of" proves how anti-social you are

That's why I said it was "meant" to be easier. Obviously the dialect people grow up around is the easiest to understand, but textbook English is a standard meant to be understood no matter what dialect you are used to.
>Nobody worth their salt looks down on colloquial phrases.
If it's a very common, nationwide colloquial phrase than yeah it will be used in media, but region specific colloquialism is frowned upon. Nobody is going to understand what I meant if I say, "I got cut by a jaggerbush" unless you are from Pittsburgh.
>Overuse of the passive is a problem in *written* English, not speech.

Very few people write "could of". Almost everyone, from all walks of live, including prestigious ones, pronounce the 've as "of", but only people who don't read enough write it as "could of". That alone proves you wrong that when people pronounce it "of" they think it's "of". A minority do so at the very best.

Nobody is going to shit on you if you say "hoagie", "tag sale", "big rig", or "can of fizzy". They might at best find it interesting. If they go full autism on you, they're a vast minority.

>You do know that the best way to proofread a paper is to read it aloud, right? Those passive sentences stick out like a sore thumb when said aloud.

So when it comes to kanji...
Do all meanings correspond to a respective reading, like in a mathematical function whereas every input has one output (example below of the image I made), or is it that all readings in general can have all possible meanings it just depends on the context (example above of the image)? In other words, does a particular reading bond to a particular meaning, or can all possible readings have all possible meanings, just depending on context?

Dude, take a step back from the kanji and focus on whole words.
Kanji are just characters. They encode a word, and that word has readings and meanings. Learning "kanji readings" and "kanji meanings" is a stopgap measure meant to let you handle unknown words.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17097705
音読み are basically synonymous with each other. Whether 呉音 or 漢音 or some other is used is a matter of origin or at times arbitrary convention. It is probably possible to notice a very general trend of 呉音 readings being in one way or another of Buddhist origin, but not necessarily, or already far removed from their Buddhist implications (e.g. 人間).

訓読み are best viewed as Japanese words in their own right, written with various Chinese characters because they sort of matched, but the semantic match is not necessarily exact (to the actual Chinese characters).

Chinese-originating compounds with 音 readings are often two synonyms put together, or an abbreviation of two other compounds, which may sound nonsensical upon analysis. From the Japanese perspective, uncommon senses of kanji are often used.

Japanese-made ones are usually quite straightforward, so they are easily spotted, but older 訓読み compounds can be highly metaphorical.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17098039
There are lots of words of Japanese origin, particularly adverbs, that are conventionally written in hiragana instead of kanji, possibly because there don't have homophones you could mixed them up with, or the kanji is some type of irregular reading. Nevertheless, minna is written pretty often in both hiragana and kanji.

Friends, I've been trying to get a mining deck going, but for some reason cards aren't adding to the deck. I click r and get little pop up that says note added. But when I go to look, there's no new cards in my deck. Has anyone else had this issue or know how to solve it?

[Anonymous No.]

>>17098319
There may be some contexts where 溢れる could be read as either あふれる or こぼれる and both would make sense. But to begin with I think こぼれる would usually be written 零れる or in hiragana. 溢れる is an unusual spelling and my IME doesn't even support it.

But there are some contexts where only one or the other would be possible, because they don't mean exactly the same thing. For example, 目に涙が溢れる can only be read as あふれる. 穴から粉が溢れる can only be read as こぼれる. 水が溢れる could be either one (but I would guess あふれる first because it's more common).

I'm enjoying a playthrough of a sound novel game. I'm learning a lot from it.
https://youtu.be/QuKMr-Tpfw8
Both the game and the narrators have an amazing sense of humor.
Sometimes when the game presents a joke and I don't get it, they sometimes talk about it. Like the 「ロンバケ」joke. If I was just reading it by myself I would have just thought it was actually a london horse betting gambling drama like the game explains, until the narrators point out "maybe it's like that in that world"
Jokes in are much funnier in Japanese when you end up getting them and realize how well set up they are.

these people do have the time but they'd rather lounge on the couch sending snapchats and munching on cheezits after they get home from work, rather than working out. the point is don't make excuses.

A little update: the highlight buttons now highlight the entire test description area of a single entry. The trade off: individual genre tags are not highlighted. Entries also now have a clear selection button.
Added a simple button which allows anons to scroll back to top with a single press, for navigation ease. It may not be useful at the moment but I figure once the rest of the CoR contents are added, it will end up rather long in the tooth and make scrolling to the top manually a pain.

Focusing on the rest of the CoR series at the moment. Looking to do it in stages so if for whatever reason you find yourself using browsing the site and there are a large amount of entries with missing data, images, etc. they will be in the process of being added and it isn't an error.
Doing it that way to get an idea of how much room it all takes up, etc. It will look a little messy till all of the data is up to date.

Right now I'm learning about reading time etc, and I feel I'm making progress. Only downside is that it doesn't learn you a single thing about particles and when to use them, but I do have to use multiple in a single sentence already.

So far as I can tell, they're all full-width text, and it's my guess that some Japanese programs may not play nice with half-width texts as Japanese fonts generally do not use it(unless you want unreadable garbled bullshit for complex kanji). There's probably other reasons related to unicode or some shit like that. Or maybe it's just too much of a pain to switch to half-width manually as in with IME, so they say fuck it and do it the easy way.

I'm looking to learn Japanese since I made the mistake of learning (and then dropping) Russian in college.

Give it to me straight: How bad of an idea is it to go the DuoLingo course alone? Would it be better to ignore it entirely or use it alongside the DJT guide?

[Anonymous No.]

>>17103607
It's a great idea, it'll give you a perfect starting point and develop your skill to at least an intermediate level. You shouldn't bother with the guide, it's outdated anyway these days, Duolingo is all you need.

>How bad of an idea is it to go the DuoLingo course alone?
It's not exactly a bad idea. You won't get as high of the results you'd get if you followed the DJT guide in entirety, but it's still a very good learning course for beginners. If you don't have much time to study everyday, then Duolingo is going to be pretty useful. So I say go for it.

I'm still just starting out with Japanese learning. Should I nevertheless set the Anki new cards order to random?

Also, I use Anki for stuff besides Japanese, too. Should I just create one megadeck out of all my cards? I really don't like how Anki prioritizes decks alphabetically. I want new cards to be random, too, not just the reviews, which become semi-random after a while.

Assuming you are using Core, I'd advise against it. They are ordered for a reason. If you are mining, go for it.
>Should I just create one megadeck out of all my cards?
You'd get your Japanese cards mixed with your other decks, so essentially you'd be doing multiple subjects at the same time. Personally, I'd hate that. Go for it if you want to, you can always separate decks later pretty easily.

By the way, what happens if I have a parent deck that introduces new cards orderly and a subdeck that introduces them randomly? Will the parent- or subdeck setting overwrite the new card order, when I press on the parent deck?

>you'd be doing multiple subjects at the same time. Personally, I'd hate that.
Why would you dislike that? I find that to be much more engaging. I also heard that it's better in making you find relations between seemingly unrelated information, helping in exploring the infromation and creatively applying it.

[Anonymous No.]

Anki by itself isn't enough for me.
Specially with verbs, I really need to look up for the transitive/intransitive versions.
So, when learning new cards I go together with a dictionary (kanjidamage also works great for that). It's a bit slow, though...

DJT, I need your collaboration!

I have made a deck that complements Core10k by adding all the 262 missing Jouyou Kanji. It consists of a manually picked set of 505 words where I tried to balance between word frequency and a wide coverage of readings (mostly 表内, unless a 表外 one seemed relevant).

Some of these words go pretty low on frequency, reaching 50.000 when the kanji is rare.
Because of that, finding sample sentences was hard. I had to use a lot of JP-JP ones and translate them on my own, using my Dekinai skills and some Google-Translate-fu. Besides, I'm ESL.

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1_Al3FgNZSCVB0SXvkU9MHy8yErocdwcidNKr6QzPt0M/edit?usp=sharing

Could you guys give it a read and point out any important corrections to be made?
Just right click a cell and add a comment with any corrections you may have.
Focus on the message rather than on form - as long as it illustrates the word correctly, it should be fine.

Red = Manually translated.
Blue = Machine translated.

After it's done, I'll make a deck and a zip with the audio files for the CoR.

>its just a different tool to learn, just like books or anki cards.
Huh? Books are also media. No different from anime, and my stance is the exact same for them. If you can't tell the difference between those and Anki I have honestly nothing to tell you, except, good luck.

[Anonymous No.]

>>17109487
then tell me how you learn, you made it sound like youre only watching anime you like, and by watching i assume you dont pause, you dont use japanese subtitles and you dont look up words or study grammar and such.

but if you do, if you use textbooks, look up grammar concepts, study with anki and such, outside of the time you purely watch an anime as a hobby or for fun. then i dont understand what the difference is for you between using a textbook to learn a concept and using an anime that youve already seen to study the sentences one by one.

させる is the causative form of する、which means you are making someone or letting someone do something.
もらう is "to receive" with a slight nuance that receiver requested it. て-form + もらう correlates a bit to "doing a favor for"

TK's website mentions タベモノ as its first example to teach katakana. According to a 5 second research on Google タベモノ means food, which I suppose shouldn't be written in katakana, unless the Japanese somehow did not eat food until they started making contact with Europeans.

What do you guys do to learn how to memorize vocabulary? Anki/SRS in general is, imo, only good for remembering the pronunciation. I've personally gotten to a point where I can speak the language, but only recognize 2/5ths of the 800 or so words that I know.

And I've NEVER written anything down... I've never practiced writing kanji in general... Because it's such a tedious task. It's the one thing out of everything else that makes me want to not learn Japanese anymore, but it's probably the best method to actually remember how kanji/vocab looks.

Would anyone be interested in an ancillary Japanese thread for intermediate or higher? Like N2+ maybe. Would be a far slower thread obviously, primarily focused on recommending content, and with submitted questions being more geared towards more esoteric stuff like dialects, classical Japanese, etc. Stuff that can't easily be found by reading a grammar guide or looking on chiebukuro. Seriously not trying to be elitist at all or anything but I would be interested in such a thing, at least.

This. While the kangxi set has some useful shapes, it also has a lot of shapes which you will hardly ever see, and is missing a lot of shapes which you will be seeing all the time.

The dakuten indicates that it's pronounced as a voiced fricative. The lack of dakuten indicates that it's pronounced as a semivowel/glide.

Anyone is having this problem when you're reading and you recognize the word yet the kanji are a jumble mess in your head and it's just impossible to reproduce them from memory? I know a bunhc of vocabulary but I've been struggling with this. Do you have any tips?

[Anonymous No.]

>>17116049
Yeah I think I can count the number of kanji I can actually write on my hand. I don't think it's a problem really. I only read and write on a computer, you don't need to produce anything then, the computer does it for you.

What I do while learning kanji or vocab is write everything down. Not just the first time a card appears, but every time. Really helps me memorize things.

Recognising kanji and actually producing kanji are two completely different skills, if you want to do both you have to make a habit of practising both

Is being able to write really necessary?

I can think of a few reasons, I'm sure none of them apply to the NEETs here.

Majoring in Japanese.
Going to University in Japan
Working as a salaryman in Japan. (Even then you'll probably get by just fine without it)

I think I accidentally fucked up my Core 2k/6k deck by putting it in a parent deck with random order.

I get kanji like ボーイフレンド among my first 20 cards. You are supposed to start off with cards meaning "one" and "two", right?

Will my deck be fixed again, if I sort by creation date once and then use the reposition tool with default settings?
Or does the creation date not correspond to the order the deck is supposed to be in and I'll have to reup- and redownload that huge deck to start it from scratch? ;_;

Hey guys, I have a question about this sentence.

にびょういないにまどからすててるな

Basically I read this like:

にびょういない - in less than 2 minutes
に - in the direction of
まどから - (the) window?
すててるな - it will be thrown

More precisely, throwing something out of the window. However my confusion is with まどから reading about から I'm slightly confused about what から is meaning here.

https://nihongoichiban.com/2011/03/27/particle-%E3%81%8B%E3%82%89-kara/

Says that から can be a geographical context saying from this point onward. So is から what is actually what makes this throwing out of the window instead of throwing towards the window?

I set that back already, but the "Due" dates all seem so random.

I also noticed that when I went through the Kangxi radicals deck, the first few shown were radicals like the one meaning "three-legged cauldron" (radical #206) and the one meaning "one" showed up late. The random order was turned off already.
That doesn't sound right, which is why I think I somehow permanently fucked it up.

I redownloaded ans reuploaded the deck. Seems fine now.

Sorting and repositioning by creation date seems to have yielded the same result.

I read the first 13 volumes of Yotsubato.

Considering it was impossible for me to read a single page a few months ago, I feel proud.

I found the chapters with the grandma to be very boring, though.

Is anyone here familiar with latex and can help me out in customization? I just found the word frequency plugin and i want to add it to the front and back of my deck. The tricky thing though is i want to have it just floating there on the bottom left of the card when i'm scrolling through it, similar to the jisho link in the pic (which i copied off of some anon a while back). How do you do it?
