If you don't know katakana, you don't know shit about Japanese, given how often it appears in all forms of writing. "Stuck around" like hiragana? Ridiculous, it doesn't have to stick around, it's already everywhere. Pick up a fucking book you trash.

Yeah, I used the one in the guide. I'd do it for a few days, get to the point where I'd be making almost no mistakes but it didn't stick. When I learned hiragana I was still writing out all new kanji and their readings in hiragana by hand so it stuck very easily. But reality is that I'm just a lazy sack of shit.

Try production then, idk. Believe it or not the human brain learns faster when you do things both ways (even when it's backwards and serves no function otherwise).

>> No.21458448

>>21458410
It's mostly english words written in another script so it's really easy to bullshit your way through katakana. Most of the time it's a set of specific words that come back a lot in whatever you're reading. If you're reading Hibike you just recognise マウスピース and you don't even have to look at the characters.

Also now that I think about it, it's pretty normal to forget after a while.
I still think one of the biggest tricks to learning Japanese is just to keep going forward. If you try to master any 1 part before you move on then you'll end up taking years longer than it should.
When you get to the point where you aren't making many mistakes don't try to keep going, and don't feel content and stop studying.
Move on to the next stage at that point. Study grammar.

That's exactly how it works. If you give a class of kindergartners chairs with their names on it they'll quickly learn which is theirs just by the shape and size of the word. They won't be able to read it out of context, but here the context is narrow enough that they can learn to recognise it.
That's how it goes with katakana. Normally you're either learning vocab, where you have a fairly narrow group of words you choose from, or you're reading stuff, where most of the time you have a fairly narrow group of words to choose from. Even if you are haunted by シ and ツ in your nightmares, you can still read シャツ without issue, because what else could it be?

Common knowledge tells us that a single consumed story is worth 1 point on the J-CAT. Common knowledge also tells us that prologues and intros tend to be significantly harder than the rest of the story. Thus, one can conclude that the intro of a given story is essentially worth a single point, and if you consume 300 intros, then you should get 300 points on the JCAT, maybe with a little supplemental listening and reading on the side. Therefore, I hereby inaugurate the "Drop It Like It's Hot Challenge": read the ENTIRE intro or prologue of a unique VN every single day, then drop it, and find something to read tomorrow. Every single day. After 300 days of this, you will have read 300 intros/prologues, and you should basically be fluent at Japanese!

To sum things up, yeah of course you're going to struggle with "less common" words if you barely consume media and do so at a slow pace anyway. What you're doing right now, by my estimate, is barely consuming Japanese media with the bulk of your actual studies being Anki, which is exactly the kind of situation that our ancestors warned us about. Learning from anime is reasonable, but the amount of language in an episode of anime is about as much as like a few pages of text at best, which suffice to say isn't a whole lot.

many people have done this and reported that they hardly learned shit. picking up 1 or 2 words a day is so inefficient compared to what anki can do. you don't even have to keep the words in your anki deck for long. 2 weeks or so of reviewing is enough, then delete or suspend. but not reviewing words at all is just asking for your vocab acquisition to be an excrutiatingly slow crawl. unless you're inputting 5 hours a day which, let's be frank, almost no one here is doing.

>>21459262
i think anki should only be used for vocab to reading
readings are overrated. i'd rather have the meaning of a word down than memorize the reading any day. knowing that 一攫千金 means "get rich quick" is going to help me way more than just knowing it's pronounced いっかくせんきん. the latter is basically going to be useless unless i'm listening, and even then if i don't remember the meaning it's pointless.

1. meta analyses can be flawed for several reasons, and multiple people have broken that one down specifically. 2. still has nothing to do with the mind illuminated and it's specific techniques and process.

you would not be able to tell the difference between the techniques studied in that meta-analysis vs what's in TMI, or be able to say why the former was ineffective and why the latter may or may not be more effective - because you don't know about meditation and you refuse to learn about it. your ramblings are meaningless.

>the point is that you have no evidence for your theory.
you are the one who claimed that what was observed in those meta-analyses and TMI are the same thing. and you still have come nowhere near close to demonstrating that. because that would require having knowledge on what the practices in question involve. which you don't have.

GOSH DARN IT FREAKING HECK, WHAT HAPPENED TO KOTOBANK?!

It looks like shit, doesn't have efficient search anymore.

What were the dictionaries it used so I can install them myself?

>> No.21461868

>>21461824
The search change is a side effect of the death of Yahoo Dictionary.
https://dic.yahoo.co.jp/close/
But the actual dictionary pages still have the same content from 大辞泉 and 大辞林.

>> No.21461896

>>21461824
If the dictionaries it uses are 大辞泉 and 大辞林 as >>21461868 says, you can find them as EPWING dictionaries on RuTracker (and also in the CoR, I believe). You'll need an EPWING reader like Qolibri to use them though.

You can also use both of these EPWING dictionaries with Yomichan (after converting them), if that's your popup dictionary of choice.
I believe support for these two dictionaries is planned in Nazeka, but not yet implemented (only Kenkyusha and Shinmeikei are implemented so far), so you're out of luck (for now, at least) if Nazeka if your popup dictionary of choice.

I don't really get how the new system works, I mainly used it for finding 熟語 for obscure kanji when Kanjipedia failed me.

I'll look up some words I remember taking from Kotobank to see the dictionary names, I think there was more than just 大辞泉 and 大辞林.

Anyone else at the point where you're saving words in Anki to improve your vocab, but you rarely see the word again outside the context you found it? Unless I mined an anime and loop the audio on my phone, a lot of words I learn I rarely see again. It's like for each 100 words I learn, I'll have 1 less word to look up in each show I watch.

To be quite honest, I don't think that most conservative or liberal political commentators in America are all that revolutionary in terms of their thoughts, nor do they ever go far beyond the usual party lines' dogma.
What's the point of listening to somebody else's thoughts if, most of the time, any random nigga can come up with an equally good (or terrible) opinion on such matters?

Then there is no point in it. Besides RTK doesn't just tell you the meaning of a Kanji it goes into a bunch of memory bullshit to force you to associate it with an English keyword a useless skills. Besides a ton of Kanji don't correspond to one clear concept like that and RTK has a ton of bullshit meanings in it and you can't deny that.
You can learn Kanji as you learn the concepts in the language you are learning. That means learning the words as you encounter them and if you want to write you can do that as well all quite easily without RTK.

Most RTK shitters never make it and most people advocating for it are dumbass beginners. Those people are that made it have simply no clue how much of an influence RTK had on them and recommended it just because they did it themselves.

It does actually since こおり is an actual Japanese word written using that specific character - 氷(こおり), whereas ice, ijs, hielo, gelo aren't.

By learning 氷 = こおり, you are learning to associate the kanji with an actual Japanese word that it is used to write. This act of learning kanji together with the words they write has actual value and is the method natives employ to learn their script.

KKLC is extremely shitty due to having multiple keywords, and due to said keywords often not being unique but rather shared across several different kanji. For instance, there are like 6 kanji in KKLC which all have the keyword "Darkness". It's absolutely useless for writing production cards.

Also, I'm pretty sure you aren't supposed to memorize the vocabulary in KKLC. It's only there to show you examples of the kanji meanings in use in Japanese words.

Having multiple keywords (from the kodansha kanji dictionary btw) captures the meaning of kanji way better than the arbitrary shit that hack heisig made up. kklc is much more rooted in proper etymology of the radicals, kanji, and their meanings, and has much simpler and more concrete mnemonics too (with the exception of one or two that someone is going to immediately post with some ironic statement involving "lol" or "lmao")

Yeah, maybe it does, but the problems that come with those multiple keywords far outweigh any benefits of that.

It's very easy to learn what kanji actually mean as you learn words which use are written with them. RTK's keywords not being terribly accurate at times is a non-issue.

IF I were to go and do one of these systems, I'd do KKLC but to alleviate the keyword problem I'd add some of the vocabulary to the front of the flashcards that have overlapping keywords. So for 聞 (which probably doesn't have overlapping keywords but it's just an example), on the front it would have the keywords HEAR, ask and also vocab with the part the kanji reads in hiragana, so きく and 新ぶん maybe, then the back would have the usual shit along with the full kanji of the vocab examples. But at this point it's just pointless theorycrafting as everyone in this conversation has either done rtk/kklc or progressed to a point where they don't need to do them.

If you really want to do RTK be my guest, but just get it over quickly. 2 months at most and then drop that deck like the garbage it is and start learning Japanese instead.

I did RTK at the start of learning because I fell for the AJATT RTK first meme at the time. I actually can't handwrite most Kanji at all any more because I've never fucking done it again and it's a skill that you lose very rapidly if you don't constantly practice, trust me.

I know for half of you Japanese is this fetish object like for Matt where you somehow decided this will be the one thing in your life where you won't be a complete failure. But you gotta realize the Japanese won't really care about that extra bit of fluency on top if you have literally no other redeeming qualities about you.

I mean I'm just telling it how it is. Even if you don't explicitly want to work in Japan and just visit the Japanese will still care a lot about your occupation and what you're doing professionally. Most of them define themselves through their profession and nothing else after all.

And if people are going to say they don't want to talk to Japanese people anyways then why give a flying shit about any of this pitch accent and handwriting at all? If you're just in it for the content you obviously don't need to care about any of this.

I guess there's still a subset of people who just do it because they hope to some day impress some other internet loser but that's the saddest fucking goal I've ever seen.

that's not the middle ground, that's an apt description of people who care about pitch accents. ok I exaggerate, but normal people don't consciously study it but still get by perfectly fine. but idk, maybe I'm wrong, maybe in 10 years people like me will be amazed by how good kids learning Japanese in the West sound, just like the boomers who came to Japan in their 20's or 30's and somehow managed to live their entire lives here without learning anything but a couple of words of Japanese were amazed when they heard us gen X & Y-ers actually speak Japanese, which they had assumed was just impossible

Hey, more power to you if you can pull off a convincing Japanese accent but proclaiming that pitch accent is the end-all and something only basement-dwellers don't care about is retarded and this single-minded level of obsession with it is why people tend to assume you guys going on about it are complete retards. but sure I can say I maybe kinda wish I'd been slightly more conscious of it when I began but then again I live in Kansai so it's Bizarro-world anyway

I made a little bday doodle for a JP artist I enjoy. What's some stuff I should put on there? From what I've occasionally seen on pixiv I see people just put like
>HBD @user! +today's date
Would that be enough? Should I write out Happy Birthday in Japanese? I'm not confident in my ability to do that yet, I don't want to fuck up the grammar by accidentally putting something in the wrong order or something.
