RtK? Or something else?

Oh, I haven't heard of that one. How's it work?

It's been discussed a bit here. >>8898021 (I wonder what happended that the thread disappeared?)
In contrast to RTK, it goes out of its way to teach readings alongside meaning. Personally, I think that it helps memorizing a lot.
Keep it real, Hellodamage

>>8908379
Looks interesting. Does it use a similar order to RtK? That's what I think is the real genius of RtK; the way he introduces the new primitives.

Would you recommend it if I already know meanings, but not readings? I was planning on learning readings in context with my current deck (Core 6K), but they are falling behind compared to understanding. If not I'll probably try out RtK volume 2.

If there's one thing I would recommend from doing RtK, is that you should be consistent in learning new stuff. If you tell yourself to always do a certain amount per day, and get into the habit, it's much harder to slack off. I finished RtK in exactly 4 months, and it probably could have been 3 or less if I was more consistent.

How about kana? I learned them in a week or so, and I have them completely down now, but I hear some people find them hard.

>primitives
you mean radicals?

Well, I don't know. You might try to plow through KD's mnemonics (some of them are hilarious) and get the Onyomi reading. No mnemonics for Kunyomi, sadly.

Maybe just read the author's introductory rant and see if he's any good in your case.

Just one thing: if you were used to Heisig's politeness, don't be shocked by some of KD's vulgarities. (He doesn't use yo momma jokes as frequently as the main page insinuates, though)

>you mean radicals?
Pretty much. It's Heisig's term, includes more than are usually recognized as radicals

>Maybe just read the author's introductory rant and see if he's any good in your case.
Looks cool, I'll check it out

>Just one thing: if you were used to Heisig's politeness
Ha, no way. I used koohii for the majority of them, and while Heisig may hold back, they sure as hell don't on there. I substituted out the "missile" primitive Heisig suggested for "semen", because one person posted something like "If you use semen instead, it makes the perfect story for EVERY SINGLE KANJI IT IS IN". And it did.

Not doing them today, I have three presentations and a paper due tomorrow and I haven't started a thing. First time I will miss a day in 2 and a half months, taking a vacation still didn't keep me away from my Japanese studies. I don't get why I am so lazy in college but study Japanese very diligently.

How is Japanese anywhere near dying?

[Anonymous No.]

Doing both Kanjidamage grinding by using the site for 3-4 hours everyday + Anki reviews. And on weekends off I do rereviews from 1-XXX

At 500 kanji with both on and kun readings, I skip Kun that's below 3 stars though. Started 15th of February.

What deck do you use ? If it's a Kanjidamage deck then which one ?

[Anonymous No.]

>>8910981
The outdated one. The onyomi readings and the translations of Kun and some keywords are changed compared to the new kanjidamage layout that's used on the site. But it really doesn't matter since I always manage to grind 20 kanji everyday using the site itself, so I'm pretty much always ahead of the new cards that come up on Anki. I just do Anki for improving kanji retention. Also because it's gonna be a pain to do rereviewing when I reach the 1000 mark.

>>8911017
I use the plus+ deck. It's basically the same but they added some kanji and changed a few mnemonics.

[Anonymous No.]

Do you learn Jukugo too ?

[Anonymous No.]

>>8911143
I usually skip jukugo, I do some, mostly stuff that's fully starred.

[Anonymous No.]

Is that a joke? Is Anki racist?

[Anonymous No.]

Am I the only one who made their own decks? I've taken the kanji from 'Genki' and added them in, along with the vocabulary in it's own deck. Is this a bad idea or something?

[Anonymous No.]

>>8912306
I started a Genki deck today but I don't write Kanji in it, just Hiragana.
Also, this is actually a great idea but you should make your own deck after learning with a Kanji one already. Like if you read a manga and there's a Kanji you don't know then add it to the deck.

If Argentina is white, then we might as well call Jews white.

Uh huh.

The Finnish aren't white either, did you know? Because the ancient Fins migrated to Europe from central Asia, exactly like every fucking other European group.

That's what "Aryan" fucking means, speakers of Indo-European languages.

The only ethnic group in Europe that didn't come from Asia are the Basques, but according to /int/ they aren't white either.

Oh, I forgot to mention I add vocabulary and kanji from external sources too, whoops. If I learn a new reading for a kanji I already know, I edit it in as I go. Seems easier than adding a kanji with all the readings right then and there if you ask me, even if it is slower, it's steady progress.

Why bother splitting it into two decks? Why not enter it into the existing one in the same format?

PUSH through the PAIN

[Anonymous No.]

You know, I guess I have to thank you for these threads.
They really helped me to overcome my lack of motivation.

[Anonymous No.]

I'm not sure if my daily method is ideal.
I start in the morning with learning 30 new kanji for about 2 hours. Then I (the lazy asshole) take an undefined break and start doing the reps sometime during the rest of the day.
There's where I wonder If I should configure anki to show the new cards first or start with the due reviews before the new kanji.
What's your personal reps plan anon?

[Anonymous No.]

>>8914848
>4 minutes per kanji
How much are you learning about each one? Because that seems really long.

[Anonymous No.]

>>8914848
I do 15-20 Kanji a day and then review a few times until I have everything memorized. I'm using Heisig method and right now at 180 Kanji since I started recently.
After I'm done I try learning some Grammar with Namasensei or Genki and I add words in Hiragana from Genki to another deck.

[Anonymous No.]

I'll start with grammar next week I guess.

doin all the kanji reps is pretty worthless, i did all 2k and i still do reps every day but i feel like i could have just skipped it and just did vocab and learned all the kanji through individual words

It's easier to learn the compound words after you learn some Kanji because that's the part of the language that usually makes sense.
