One year has past since I started core6k
I know DJT will shit on me for being too slow. But I'm happy with my progress, I can read manga comfortably now. Slow and steady may not win the race, but I'll finish the race eventually. Even though I never finished tae kim's guide, I did read through sakubi's guide which is good enough.

Been doing noAnki for months and I've stagnated. So I plan on starting again.

Common words are common enough so you don't need flashcards to learn them
Rare words are too rare for a beginner/intermediate to bother learning. Once you're ready for them you won't need cards either.

But it's those words in between. Common enough but not common enough to remember them. But yeah, do it in moderation. Around 20 minutes maybe.

If you read enough and look up enough words in the process, you'll remember and encounter more words than if you spend hours a day repeating the same words on anki with "definitions" pulled out of essentially a glossary rather than ones that actually explain what it means. Oh, and good luck with anki when you're dealing with 造語.

Anybody past the beginner level and can pick up native material to read should do so already. There's nothing more efficient than doing so if you want to actually learn this language. At a certain point, many things like processing information in japanese directly and understanding certain words and sentence structure immediately becomes intuitive and you should strive to reach that level as soon as possible.

matt only recommends shared decks which consist of i+1 sentences and are primarily geared toward teaching grammar, such as decks derived from the JLPT Tango book series. he would never recommend repping isolated words because they are "shit" according to him. and after finishing a basic sentence deck you should start mining sentences ASAP.

and he's native vetted (pic related is a japanese guy) so you should trust him. nobody from djt has been native vetted.

I don't usually bother posting this kind of stuff because it's so basic yet I get tripped up constantly. I doubt I'll ever know but here's what I got out of it before I gave up:
>Up until now it's like she's hiding something with the most scheming smile.
I can't tell if it's 今までで which means "as of now" or 今まで+で, which means "Until now, with..."

This makes no sense to me:
>一番何か
"The most something"
"The best something"
Is it "the most scheming smile"? That's the only way it makes sense but the word ordering is not intuitive and I had to spend minutes figuring that out.

And this kind of trips me up because I always forget how ような really works. I guess it's as simple as A) ような B), A) is like B). But in this sentence I don't know if A) is merely the word 企んでいる or if it refers to 一番何かを企んでいる. But I don't know what 一番何か really means so if it's the latter that just confuses me even more.

Also I keep reading this:
>企んでいるような含みのある
Like this:
>Scheming like there is a hidden meaning
But that doesn't make sense to me.

>jlpt tango decks
Not really sure what those are, but only 1k words? Doesn't really sound that good.

The main problem with core2k is the shitty ordering. I guess it doesn't really matter if you are going to do them anyways, but it kinda sucks to miss out on many many extremely common words only to learn like three different words for work in the first 500. I guess vn2k would be much better, but the deck itself is probably based on an older much worse core2k (less audio, less fields for customization).

Btw. I recently noticed that I have no clue how to conjugate the base verbs "be", "have", "do", "go" in the most common time forms and I have a hard time understanding many basic sentences because of that. Is there a good resource, that will spoon feed me this stuff. Like an anki deck or a cheat sheet or something? With all other languages I learned, this was basically lesson 1 and with japanese I haven't seen this anywhere. They like to start with numbers and people and shit like that.

I haven't read all of Tae Kim yet, but as far as I can tell it's more about teaching the rules and not spoon feeding you the exceptions. The most basic verbs are usually the most difficult to conjugate and I would like to see something that mainly focuses on this point. I'm not really concerned about the regular verbs, since they seem easy enough in Japanese. But almost any sentence has some form of "be", "have" or "do" in them and often in very irregular forms.

maybe u can examine japanese subs while trying to watch anime at a snails pace after 10000 hours of eng subs but u watch the eng subs not for the exact translations u use them to gear ur bearings on emotions and concepts (ie when som1 is being snarky)

japanese people store simple combinations of stem and auxiliary as whole conjugations in their head
any form that can't be split up into smaller parts and remain comprehensible is a conjugation also (this means anything that uses the 未然形 or 仮定形)

as this is the first page of a chapter it has more furigana than usually, plus it is how much the author decided was best for comfortable reading for his target audience.

Fair enough, I don't buy the claims of people like Harold Bloom for a second. But every time the topic comes up on literature forums you always get one guy who thinks he appreciates literature better than anyone else because he can only read 15 pages an hour and it's just really sad. Being content with your way of doing things is fine but there's no reason to think others are wrong.

they don't think other people are wrong, they're just looking for a positive to their flaw. and indeed, they do technically have more time to think about what they're reading, but that's both a blessing and a curse because it means it's easier to forget things from a fixed number of chapters ago. having said that, you're not helping anyone or making anything better by attacking them, you're just being an asshole.

There is nothing wrong with finding "simple" things difficult, as long as you continually challenge yourself.

Why are you determined that people must challenge themselves? It's okay to read and do what you enjoy without going out of your way to challenge yourself. Life doesn't have to be a constant uphill battle of challenging yourself and self improvement. Life can be lived any way someone wants. And if someone wants a comfy life where they read harry potter books every day, that's fine.

imagine thinking the entirety of harry potter is age-appropriate reading material for 12 year olds
the magic of harry potter is that the writing style grows up as the characters do and it came out over a relatively long period of time despite not being a true serial so people could Grow Up with the story as it were

I said people ought to mentally challenge themselves

you said there exists people who do not do that

I said well not doing that means you are dumb not that it is impossible

Or to elaborate, since you seem to need the extra handholding, choosing to challenge yourself does not make you smarter, and choosing not to challenge yourself does not make you dumber. Humans are a lot more complex than that. Like I said, it's a defense mechanism to think that you're doing the right thing and everyone else is wrong. You want to think that by challenging yourself, you're making yourself smarter, and that anyone who doesn't challenge themselves is dumb or getting dumber. But that's just not the case. Humans aren't that simple. Life isn't that simple.

i never mentally challenge myself and i learn far faster and develop more refined skills over a larger range of subjects than anyone else i know, bar a few people i know who are spectacularly good at one or two things

maybe i'm just a genius but that's highly unlikely considering that i'm a lowercase poster so many it's just that your obsession with challenging yourself is wrong and you were brainwashed into believing it by modern education or society or your family or something

that's not to say that mentally challenging yourself isn't good, if you're born stupid it's the only way to make sure that you don't stay stupid, but it's not something people "ought" to do, it is exactly appropriate for different people to live life differently, and you need not project your own worries onto others and demand they act as reflections of your ideals

The "lazy genius" who's smarter than everyone else despite putting no effort in is as standard of an archetype as you can get. Then you have people with learning disabilities who bust their ass studying each day but still get low grades. Humans, unfortunately, don't operate on a sliding scale of where intelligence linearly goes up in according to how much work you put in. The only thing that kind of works like that is breadth of knowledge, rather than intelligence, but then memory comes into play and that's often outside of an individual's hands.

I've read Tae Kim a few times. I still have trouble with some of it but I think the bigger problem I have is that I just absolutely fail at determining what is affecting what in a sentence. Jamal helped me out yesterday and showed how I misinterpreted something as a phrase (because yomichan showed it). I thought two words were "modifying" each other but they actually weren't. I don't know if reading Tae Kim again would have helped with that. I guess I just have to find a ton of sentences like that and slowly internalize them.

There is good evidence that knowing those concepts doesn't really help you learn the language. Your time is better spend getting more exposure than learning grammar. It certainly can't hurt to at least learn the basic concepts, especially with languages that are completely different like en <-> jap, but beyond that I guess it's mostly just a hobby that some people entertain.

I wouldn't go that far. Tao Kim is a pretty reasonable and short book that gives you a pretty quick rundown on Japanese grammar. But I personally wouldn't invest more time in this, except if you really enjoy grammar in general and are good enough to learn it in Japanese. For some people grammar books are as interesting as eroge are for you and then they become a great resource for learning Japanese.
