The flag will always look the same, but can you read fancy fonts like this or handwriting without really knowing how the kanji are written?
I'd say learning to write greatly helps you with stuff like that, the only real downside is that you have to learn it

I'm sure, what I read was really really good, I was surprised to see such a high quality story out of what I thought was a plain moege. The only thing is, I'm a waaay slower reader than you (seriously, you started a bit later than me and have read like 4x as much) so while it may have been a week long endevaour for you I'd end up spending a month reading it and being depressed.

If it works for him who cares. I'd say good for him. As a failure myself I understand how sometimes it was hard to motivate myself studying until I found a method that felt "right".

>>132163774
Meh
If you don't know over 2000 kanji you're still pretty early in. If you know over 2000 and are still actively learning Japanese you're probably still in the vocabulary acquisition phrase known as intermediate. But that's about all you can judge. An advanced student will know just as many kanji as a well read intermediate.

>>132161632
Plausible.
The sentence was something stupid.
Having sex with a squid.

So, can anyone explain anki to me? I imported a deck and want to make a sub deck out of it for a quiz I am studying for, but each kanji shows up twice. Once for recall, and once for recognition.

How can I filter it down to only display once?

>studied 309 cards in 10 minutes
Alright lads this is my best speed ever in anki. 300 in 10 minutes. I remember when I thought 100 in 10 minutes was impossible. So this is the power of anki.
>>132163881
Hmm, the main thing I would say though is that most methods recommended here end "strongly" - RTK3 ends with 3,000 some kanji under your belt which is hanpanai, Core2k ends really quickly AND gives you enough to start a mined deck (and subsequently a mined deck is never ending), etc etc but WaniKani ends with 2,000 kanji which isn't enough and 6,000 vocab which isn't enough, you need to go from WaniKani straight into anki after finishing, and at that point why not just go anki from the beginning? Not to mention anki is free. If he is reliant on wanikani's stuff to keep him motivated then he's gonna have a really rough time when he starts anki. Whereas if he just started with core + rtk (or whatever) in anki he'd never have to completely switch environments.

Though this is all moot if he's actually doing both wanikani and anki, I don't know.

I'm about 1300 cards into Core6k now and I'm starting to notice that some of the translations for the cards are pretty bad. Some examples:
>選手
Core: representative athlete
Jisho: player (in game); team member
What the fuck is a "representative athlete"? I mean, I know what the two individual words mean, but I've never seen or heard this term in my life.

>売り切れ
Core: sellout, sold out
Jisho: sold-out
"Sellout" is pretty much never used as anything but an insult. Nobody says "the venue is a sellout", they say "the venue is sold-out".

>写る
Core: be taken, be seen through
Jisho: to be photographed; to be projected

These are just a few I got today, but I've come across others in the past. Where do these bad translations come from?

It is kinda long with the individual routes being short and unlocking as the story progresses.

The suffering and depression was from Kamimaho. Aokana wasn't hard but it was kind of long, and I'm a completionist so I had to finish every route. I also thought it was kind of average and it bored me at times which made it take even more time to read. And I disliked the protagonist. I was pretty much in the middle of reading it when Kamimaho came out and I ditched Aokana for it.

Too many to count. I started 10+ years ago and I'm maybe N3.

Daily reminder to use mnemonics to remember kanji composition, onyomi and meaning.

You'll remember it better, won't get similar looking kanji confused and be able to guess the meaning (and reading) of most jukugo without even trying.

Learning a dozen kanji and then inferring the meaning of dozens of jukugo is far more efficient and an objectively better way of learning than memorizing dozens of jukugo and inferring the kanji reading/meaning.

>do you wish you'd stuck it out longer or are you glad you switched to mining?
I'm really glad, all the kanji in core are stuff I see all the time while reading so mining the stuff I specifically don't know really helps. If it helps, I switched at the 2200 point.

The only big big warning I have is that if you add a kanji you don't know, go to jisho and at least 2-3 "common" words with that kanji, preferably using like *浦 and 浦* to get it into different positions. Otherwise you'll memorize it in that one word then struggle to remember it in other contexts

>>132168203

I've never seen such a case of denial. I guess your poor, little mind couldn't cope when it realised it had wasted its time learning a useless skill (writing) which it is never going to use and is now desperate to justify it by inventing the ridiculous idea that you don't know a kanji even if you can read it and recognise it immediately.

You mean Kaisho? Kaisho is literally how the current shapes of kanji were defined. It's the print version of Clerical.

>>132168626
Come on anon, if you know what you're saying you should be able to define "know".

You say you need to be able to write a kanji to know a kanji. Therefore, "being able to write" must be in the definition of "know", right? There's a hint, work off that.

To test out my Japanese I decided to play some old Dragon Quest games since they're not too complex. Not too many problems so far but I di have a question about something I just saw.

In Rupugana there's a girl who offers to give you a puff puff and if you say no she says:

「オカマのどこが　わるいのよ！　いじわる……。」

I'm confused about the first sentence. オカマ means male homosexual, so is she accusing the player of being gay because he doesn't want a puff-puff? Not 100% sure what どこ is here either. I think she might be saying "It's such a shame you're gay! How unkind..." or something like that.

>>132168501
>denial
>he says while trying to defend not being able to write a language in a thread dedicated to learning said language
Unless I am mistaken and was mislead by the fact that the OP picture says 'daily japanese thread' and not 'anki stats general'.

Guys I think this is officer kondo trolling in revenge for the raids on /r/learnjapanese a few months ago

>>132168674
Hence the use of the word 'other' in the question.

>>132168618
Thanks.

>hey anon, you learning Japanese? write something for us
>...

And then you'll say "but I don't have any friends and nobody will ever know so who cares?", dismissing the fact that even this hypothetical situation is enough to show that you how ridiculous your stance on writing is. Stop being in denial and just say it out loud, I don't want to learn because I'm lazy.

>>132164586
To avoid a repeat of this confusion, try using "programme" for the "schedule" variety.

I'm not the one saying "to know kanji you need to be able to write them". This statement implies that to KNOW kanji, you need to write them.

But you spend time on writing that he does not.

If you're saying that learning to write isn't that big of a burden to your other studies, then logically speaking, you also have to admit that he can easily learn to write after he's read millions of sentences and amassed a huge vocabulary.

Before you get argumentative, please know that I strongly encourage writing, because it definitely helps with retention (there are countless backing this claim up, and they're not only related to language-learning either). I am a writefag, and I have notebooks full of autistic scribbles. But I still think it's going too far to say that somehow anon isn't learning Japanese just because he's not using a pencil and paper in his studies.

Child japanese learn their language before they learn how to write. It takes them the entirety of compulsory education to be able to write without issue. However, their language is indivisible from the way it's written.

It's impossible for us to have the natural method of knowing the grammar and many words before we begin to study kanji, because we are not blessed with many innocent years to naturally learn the spoken language.

It's impossible for us to learn writing naturally, because it's simply not something that we did while evolving. There are illiterate normal people. There are no unspoken normal people.

There is no right answer to this problem. The only thing you can know that you mustn't do is conflate the current options as being all that is available.

If enough people try hard enough, for long enough, and don't blindly snuff out other memes, then effective learning methods will always shine through. We can only write because we're taught it, and writing only works because it happens to be good for us, and it only happens to be good for us because we've tried for generations and generations to make it better and better. Learning methods are the same thing. They're DNA of the educated soul.

I feel like these kinds of posts are made by really inexperienced people
It only takes like 6-12 months of anki and regular reading to get pretty good at Japanese, and by month 16-24 you'll be blowing through SOL manga and moege (or LNs aimed at 13 year olds such as DxD or Oreimo). At that point there is really no way you can feel despair about the language.

You say the effective language learning methods will always shine through. Well, they already have. Read a lot. Listen a lot. Basically, PRACTICE. That's it, that's all it takes to learn a language. The only reason people fail on like reddit is because they spend too little time practicing the language and too much time not practicing.

The biggest problem in this whole mess the huge number of people who think "speaking from day 1" is effective, and the huge number of glasses who spread that incorrect information.

In short just read a lot and listen a lot and there is literally nothing to worry about. Within the end of your second year you'll be fucking awesome at Japanese.

Alright, I will define my terms.
"Practice" is something I understand to be as something that improves your abilities in something. You are better after practicing then you were before.
Reading to me is "practice" because in doing so your Japanese improves; you either improve your grammar, kanji, or vocab, even if you read very easy stuff your fundamentals slightly improve. It's better practice to read harder stuff obviously because it improves you more, if you read really really easy stuff then it's really bad practice because you don't get much better.

>>132171327
And how are you gauging this 'improvement'? As far as I am aware everyone in this thread either thinks you're retarded or absolutely avoids production on the grounds that it is hard and they'll get to it later or it wasn't necessary to do in the first place.

Well, it's a long term thing mainly, over time you recognize more kanji, struggle with less grammar, and know more words. By reading you expose yourself to the language in huge amounts and over time it sticks.

I don't know why you mention production in the middle of that.

It would appear so. If you explain so an autist can understand that what he said was wrong, he will say nothing and walk away. However he will not forget what you said. The next day, he will find that his opinion has changed, and his posting will differ because of it. This will happen to more people as time goes by, and a new consensus will be formed. This is the way of the anonymous imageboard.

Did you have a previous installation and upgrade to Windows 10?

>>132171884

Yep. Worst mistake of all time.

>a previous Hanahira installation*

No, but it was on Windows 7 when I upgraded.

There are quite a few games where it's needed in win7.

>>132171952
That might be the problem. Uninstall the current Hanahira, restart and reinstall Hanahira from scratch and see if the problem gets solved. I never upgrade and only do clean installs because of shit like this and more often than not, drivers get fucked.

It's too late. Windows 7 iso file is done. I'm about to take the plunge.

I guess I can try them to see if they work, for posterity's sake at least.

Yeah, that's the wrong setting, tha'ts just a bullshit setting for "apps" and shit

you want to change your os "Locale". see pic related.

Just a general tip for early beginners but resources that say "たち is a pluralizer" are explaining it wrong. It means something more like "and company". If a character is talking to another one that's with its friends and says 「一条たちは面白い」, it means that Ichijou and his friends are interesting not that multiple people named Ichijou are interesting.

It also uses the kanji 達 which anywhere else means 'achieve'.

>>132172603
Should have clearly used 椅子等

I just had a pretty cool moment, I was trying to remember the word for like stroking/rubbing someone lovingly but I couldn't think of it, but I knew it was 撫でる in Japanese so I put that into Rikai and saw "caress" in the results, which is the word I was trying to remember.

In short, for the first time in my life, I knew a word in my second language that I couldn't recall in my first language. Pretty neat stuff. Maybe this is a symbolic step.

If there's something worse than completely forgetting a whole kanji is forgetting one of the "building-blocks", I mean I can instantly recognize 熊 even more difficult ones when reading, but when writing sometimes it becomes a pain remembering the exact place of each part, especially if it's a kanji you don't see/use that much

Being a handwriting-fag sure is suffering.
