not really

my personal recommendation would be to watch these in order:

https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLB3F2C5D8B5F81F34 (basic grammar)
https://itazuraneko.neocities.org/grammar/vjg.html (everything you need to know to start reading)

you can try skipping the middle one if you want

the latter has had pretty bad translators in the past, whereas the former one sometimes inserts references to either really old anime/manga or makes puns that are impossible to translate (that are not usually laugh-out-loud-level funny, but more like "oh i get it" stoic laugh-type funny, and that rarely ever actually affect the flow of the story)

fuck off dude i aint never trolled

the first video isn't perfect but it explains a lot of the fundamentals about the language and serves as a good intro to japanese for total beginners who know nothing.
let's learn japanese uses skits to demonstrate the basic grammar of japanese in a very easy to understand way via the power of comprehensible input. it's really a great resource, with its only real weakness being its length.
vjg's explanations are incredibly clear (better than anything you'll find in any other free guide), partly thanks to the fact that the person who made it is a native japanese speaker with an education in linguistics and also partly thanks to its abundant use of visual illustrations, and it teaches a lot of essential things that llj unfortunately never gets to.

if you watch those videos you will know everything you need to know to get started guaranteed

or you can read the guide written by a korean who sucks at japanese which was full of glaring errors that other people had to fix for him. ur choice.

>彼ならどんなゼミも選び放題なのに　バイトが優先で
so i couldn't figure out what this means, so when i went to check out a translation it says that he doesn't take all the classes he wants to take because work takes priority, but i'm genuinely confused where the the sentence implies he doesn't take the classes he likes.

idk who wareya is i used sakubi. if sakubi is written by wareya then "well no probably not that good" but it still got me a crash course on japanese that let me struggle through my first LN.

the big issue with all the arguing over beginner guides is that none of them are gonna prep you enough for the first thing you read to not be a headache. literally the only way to get better at reading is to read

[Anonymous No.]

>>24246187
ah so i guess trailing off at the whole "works takes precedence" kind of implies it, and then the 放題 shows that he is able to take the classes, which wasn't translated.

[Anonymous No.]

>>24246208
translations are sometimes good to help you kind of understand what's going on if you're 100% clueless about what you're looking at but they are also a. often wrong and b. often rewritten to be "anything goes"
look at this first line from hyouka:
高校生活といえば薔薇色、薔薇色といえば高校生活、と形容の呼応関係は成立している.
now look at the translation of that line from baka-tsuki:
It's often said that life in high school is rose-coloured.

not really since the sentence is what reveals the actual meaning of the word along with its usage and nuance

the picture doesn't tell you any of this, it's just icing on the cake (the cake being the sentence obv)

>>24246367
when you want furigana to appear on your cards with the japanese support add-on, you would do it like so:
{{furigana:Expression}}

is there anything like that in the card styling?

if not, you could make two separate expression fields, one with the pitch info and one without, and have the latter on the front of your card and the former on the back

alternatively, maybe deleting all the javascript shit on the front styling would work (or it might just break everything who knows)

you have to be an absolute mong to not realize the pic on anime cards is so you remember the sentence and context of the sentence just by looking at the pic on the back of the card. it refreshes your memory instantly and just makes the word attachment grow even stronger. it's actually genius and why qm is treated as a fucking god around here by anyone who knows what's what.

[Anonymous No.]

people who think cards can cripple or make you good are retarded 99% of what you know about a word and how its used will be from hearing it thousands of times as you learn japanese by watching and reading for thousands of hours the card is just to give you a quick start at understanding the word next time you see it outside of anki

[Anonymous No.]

https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=4MobcDcdEPY
this is better than your favorite song

[Anonymous No.]

the picture can help you recall the some of the context that the word was used in but it doesn't act as a trigger to recall the actual sentence that the word was used in

and the older your card gets, the more and more distant your memory of the original context becomes and the more and more meaningless the image on the card becomes by extension

go look through your chinese cartoon folder and find a screenshot from even just a few months ago and try and recall the scene you took it from

before long an anime card deck just becomes a glorified core deck

[Anonymous No.]

from anki? i don't think so

and you really think you are going to acquire a 20k+ freq word before you forget the context on your card?

look at qm's error-riddled output
its plain to see he hasn't acquired even some of the most basic words in his deck

[Anonymous No.]

It's kind of sad, to be honest. Mary's violent lashing out about being told his precious cards aren't shit, that is. Think about it, the shit family life and whatnot, and then his one claim to fame, probably the only one that'll ever exist in his life, turns out to have been done before? Don't know what I'd do.

>Why is Tae Kim bad?
i read his guide when i first started and was continually having to refer to other resources like the dojg to clear things up since his explanations were so unclear.
it's also full of his (often ignorant) rants about the language and towards the end you can see he got lazy and couldn't really be bothered anymore.

watching vjg after finishing tae kim i was blown away by how easy it was to understand by comparison and a lot of the things that left me scratching my head in bewilderment in tae kim suddenly became clear.

The grammar point that's causing me to smash into a brick wall and stop progress.

I have plenty of motivation normally to continue my self-study of Japanese. But every now and then, I get hung up on a certain point here and there, and it stops me dead in my tracks. For reference, this is from Genki II, chapter 15. It's based on the volitional form, which I understand easily enough. But then it's adding と思っています。 As I understand it, this is a helper verb for intention... yet previously, I learned ~つもり, which also seems to express intention. It also seems easier than trying to go through the whole volitional form. So my question ultimately is, what's the difference?

That's because it's a basic guide, not a reference.

Basic guide + a good reference is my preferred way to learn anything. Bloated textbooks, guides or tutorials are the worst, it just needs to give you the minimum to get started and then anything lacking you need to search for in a reference manual.

high iq is to double up on shit when you only have 1 or 2 cards with that reading so you get more exposure to it and all of the cards get easier
itll also help make you associate the reading with the kanji and not just with the whole word

no, it just creates a new deck entry. if note fields are the same name, it adds 5 characters and makes it a new note field. you can import into an existing deck if you want though.

Thanks to the Anons who made me feel retarded for taking so long to get hiragana. I pushed and was able to get katakana in three days. Might have been easier because the sounds were already implanted in my brain.
Now I’m on day 10 of Anki with 15 cards a day. It’s taking me around 3hours before Anki tells me to fuck off until tomorrow. Should I lower the amount to focus more on grammar or is kanji and vocab more important at the start? I spend about an hour a day on grammar with the Tae Kim book.

it's not really hard to learn those words, and then see them used in context, and then pick up on it. also, i don't find those words comedic other than i guess "clock" as sort of old timey. nuance isn't universal and language is always interpreted individually. ask 10 different native english speakers how much "a few" is and you can get quite a few different answers.

>The verb sense ‘to punch or hit in the face’, first recorded in the 1920s, is originally Australian and comes from the slang use of clock to mean ‘a person's face’

[Anonymous No.]

>>24258247
you can't read with your peripheral vision past the distance of 3-5 characters away from your center of focus its been proven in speedreading studies. the center of the screen is way further than that which means even if you can vaguely sense the outline of some letters, you can't actually read or process the text as meaningful. right now open an anime with english or japanese subs, fix your focus directly at the center of the screen, don't let it move, and press play. watch how it's impossible to actually read the bottom text unless you shift your eyes there

[Anonymous No.]

>>24258234

that would only happen if you're thinking 'don't look at the subs' so your brain is still looking out for the subs. you have to think 'look at whats going on on-screen'. the face of the character talking, the scenery, etc. soon your eyes will naturally go there, just like they would if you were watching raw, instead of to the bottom to read the subs (until its necessary to go back and check them)
>when you are actually watching something with subs in your native language you don't even realise you are reading them anymore once you are absorbed in the experience of watching
not true i definitely notice when i'm looking at the subtitles even watchin stuff dubbed and subbed in english because there is slightly more cognitive load, the on-screen action seems less vivid, and i can sense myself shifting back and forth between text and screen. and with japanese dubbed and english subbed there's the added feeling of disconnect between trying to process two languages at once. on the other hand, when i watch the way i'm describing, it feels indistinguishable from watching raw, no english is being processed at all (except on the rare occassions english pops up in the middle of the screen to translate a sign or letter or something). the only difference is visually a vague blur of text at the bottom that i can't actually read till i rewind and choose to shift my focus downward

[Anonymous No.]

>>24258361
wait i think trusting the official subs is throwing me of. i'm watching k-on episode three and basically
>yui is holding quitar after forgetting how to play after studying so hard
>shot cuts away to background and a nice strum gets played
>mio says the line
so i'm imagining she's expressing surprise that yui can play those notes. then why the fuck did the subs have yui saying "you go ahead and play that" as if it was yui who played those notes as an example

you don't keep them from moving. i just said that as an experiment to show anon that you can't read everything in your peripheral vision if its too far away from your center of focus. in practice of course you move your eyes while watching, just in coordination with whats actually happening in the show rather than constantly to the bottom of the screen, same as if you were watching raw

>>24256910
well i finished this. it ended pretty strong, the last 2-3 episodes were good but the rest not so much. if you're gonna do a sherlock holmes knock off u need to have some fun mysteries which this gosick lacked. basically all of them sucked dick.

the supporting characters were complete fuckin ass too. basically the only strong part of the show was the relationship between the mcs. the main plot is pretty retarded and nonsensical too which wouldnt be an issue but the show kinda does take itself seriously so it is.

oh and another annoying fucking thing is the male mc screaming biktorikaaaaaaaaaa 10 times per episode. it's literally said 365 times in the 24 episodes and in 1 episode he screams it 20 fucking times, it's so grating that i rage quit the show cause of it a few months ago and just now picked it up. anyways guess it's a 5 or 6 out of 10

I realized earlier today that i don't think I'm actually reading japanese, I'm looking all the words in the sentence then making an educated guess as to what the sentence means from the context. I'm essentially ignoring the participles.
