Good job, that's probably the only good use for the language. Plus you can learn more while playing! Educational porn.

I think in Japanese. Enjoy your worthless piece of paper.

>> No.4540706

Super basic conversational Japanese. Know all my kana, and some Kanji. I'm not making an effort to learn it, but it's mostly the accumulation over the years. Can watch raw animu and understand what's going on. Feels good man.

Congratulations, you learned a whole bunch of useless shit for level 1.

care to explain what part of it is useless? I only really studied grammar and the level 1 grammar is used a LOT in written Japanese like that used in VNs.

Kana, basic grammar, ~250 kanji. I'm not looking for employment with it, just the ability to understand games/manga/anime so I'm taking it easy.

>> No.4540802

Unfortunately if you want to read VNs with any fluency you pretty much need to be jlpt1 level.

>> No.4540853

>>4540802
Bullshit.

>> No.4540879

>>4540853

I see you either never tried to play any VNs in Japanese or have a very different idea of fluency than I have.

>> No.4540883

That highly depends on the VN. I can EDICT through majikoi but not umineko or FSN.

>> No.4540927

I guess some are easier, but you might still miss something. Like Hatsukoi - it uses really, really simple Japanese by comparison but if I look at the people translating it they still have a lot of trouble guessing the meaning of longer sentences correctly.

Yeah well, and if you need a dictionary on every other line that's not fluent to me.

>> No.4540940

Gomenasai, OP. I speak Japanese fluently, both Kanji and the Osaka dialect, and I write fluently as well.

>> No.4540954

>>4540802
Really? I remember reading that level 1 was university-level stuff... and a high school educated Japanese would be able to play VNs with ease, meaning level 2 would be more than sufficient.

I'll need to look into it, but it'd be disappointing if level 1 turned out to be so easy.

Good enough to post on Futaba without looking like a complete idiot most of the time.
Although they'll nail you for the slightest unnatural wording.

>> No.4540998

1 is that "easy", and 2 won't do at all for reading VN-level stuff. 2 is barely enough that can read Shounen Sunday manga series or Dragon Quest games.

I got the results in April when I did the level 2 test in 2004.

Oh wow.

I guess I'll see if I can apply for it a few years, then. I'm just starting to learn, but if it's as easy as English was, it shouldn't be much of a problem. It'd probably look great on a resume, too.

I wish I could score a lvl1 certificate.

I could probably start at 3 but I'm not sure if I even want to try for these.

Sure it'd be nice to have but I can't think of any use I'd get out of it.

So why exactly did you go as far as Level 1? You working for some major scientific group or something?

Just curious, since even the Japanese teachers I had recommended only going up to 2 if we ever planned on living in Japan.

>> No.4541482

So do those numbers at the bottom mean anything?
I mean, could someone hypothetically track you down using them? Do they correspond to a database of some sort?

I'm just asking 'cause you seemed awfully keen on censorship but you didn't change what's probably the most unique thing on the page.

You learn almost enough to take the test just by using the language regularly and what little you need to study actually comes in a handy later.

>>4541482

If you somehow found out what they meant I guess you might be able to find out the test site. Good luck tracking me down with that information.

Level 1 is the "advanced" level. wtf?

It's pretty shit. I know a good amount kanji, around 1600, but my grammar is pretty awful. But I guess I shouldn't expect much more having studied for less than a year.
