Why not Anki?
Anyway, you're not going to like this but here is a solution that will more or less force you to "learn" kanji.
Work through Remember the Kanji, book one, using Anki with a good RTK deck.
This link has both the book and deck- neat.
https://mega.nz/#F!CMtGhCzD!2Yw8vL8jw3vei7QkGyno-w

OR

Work your way through Kanji Damage, using the website for reference and a good KD deck in Anki.
www.kanjidamage.com/
Choose one of these
Official KanjiDamage deck REORDERED
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1917095458
KanjiDamage Plus+ deck
https://mega.nz/#!CQg0SKyI!Ufho0RKmmW8P6XRx8KiDY1JeAXoGOgmjrEscayil8cA

OR go straight into a kanji deck. I suggest one of the following:
Kanji production deck with stroke order diagrams, RTK/frequency/etc. orders, example words, keywords, readings, etc.
https://mega.nz/#!jx0TUSyJ!Rohq5IgT3JDRHtBN5e4VLXHzY8i9SniF9EhrlzHbVSI
Kanji by Frequency with Stroke Animations
mega:///#!EMQRBa4C!o8o5g1SAVQcA9L3kxcidgLkpFAowt2q5sUju_pNfKuE
All in One Kanji Deck
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/798002504

Do this alongside something like the Core series decks avaliable in the CoR -I recommend the Core10k deck- and it will be almost impossible not to "learn" kanji. It also takes fuck all effort and you will retain the knowledge. In six months time you will know more about kanji than you will likely be able to forget. That will be enough for everything you will likely want to study in relation to kanji, unless you want to take a crack at Kanken some time later. Realistically I just gave you the steps and instructions that will product better and faster results than wanikani, for free.

>>138662218

>>138661923

Its not the lack of context, but the lack of input. Wanikani forced me to learn through writing shit.

The way anki works with trying to learn in your head with only a couple of buttons to press if you learned it or not wasn't interactive enough for me.

What I'm looking for is a free version of wanikani. I think it's the best for retards like me who can't learn normally.

>>138662739
so use the on screen whiteboard to draw before reveling the answer

>>138662684
imo they were forced to publish before they had enough editing time. theres a lot of variation in whether parts of speech contractions have periods at the end too, and amari ia marked wrong. still, the actual frequency list is a lot better than what i could make and the long prologue essay on the purpose and work put into making it is pretty good

>>138662739
you can have text fields in anki too, but you still have to pre fail.hard.etc yourself. check tha manual for info

Guys, can you help me understand something? I'm playing めぐりあう2人の名探偵 on the ds. Since I'm terrible at recognizing compressed kanji, I turned on the furigana option. I got to the part where a former female schoolmate of Kindaichi sent him a letter asking for help. My question is, why was there a furigana used for 私 while there was none for 手紙?

>>138662857
Maybe to show what type of 私 was used? It can be pronounced わたし、あたし、わし、わたくし etc, depending on the type of person

>>138662857
watashi's official reading is watakushi, which is so formal it hurts. there are also some other common normal readings of it, like atashi. marking the reading is probably a way to disamviguate it for the context its in.

>>138662739
The deck in this post >>138662142 under the description
>Kanji production deck with stroke order diagrams, RTK/frequency/etc. orders, example words, keywords, readings, etc.
Is production orientated so you have to write the kanji out correctly to pass the card.

How does that differ to this wanikani you seem to think you can advertise and get away with?

It is obvious what intentions here are, anon.

>>138662739
Get a notebook and write? It's not that hard.

>>138662901
>>138662906
Ah alright. To differentiate things. Thanks. I was just confused because I saw わたし as the reading for 私 written on the sent letter so I'm like, wait, he knew who sent it so what's with the reading?

WK is 5 bucks. If its exact methods hit home with you, there's nothing stopping you from using it. It's possible to learn vocab *entirely* from text-hooking without ever touching Anki. WK's speed wouldn't make a difference in this scenario.

Man I see でも all the time but I still don't feel like I fully understand it

>>138664421
>there's nothing stopping you from using it.
The fact it's objectively inferior to anki in every way should be a strong factor in not using it
http://pastebin.com/ujNXfMtB
> It's possible to learn vocab *entirely* from text-hooking without ever touching Anki.
Yeah it's possible to learn everything exposure, doesn't mean you want to do it or it's the best way

May as well not use WK if it's speed doesn't make a difference.

>>138664535

>Yeah it's possible to learn everything exposure, doesn't mean you want to do it or it's the best way
I've learned vocab entirely through text hooking for about a year now, and I can read most moege without Rikaisama at this point. The main thing to note here is that not a single moment has been a frustrating, dull grind. It is infinitely better than forcing yourself through 500+ reviews each day. Perhaps not as efficient, but then again, I've never been close to burnout or questioned why I'm learning Japanese.

>>138664535
>Wanikani throws all legitimacy to the window >and makes radical names up from scratch.
Just fyi, RTK is guilty of this as well. In my limited observation of KD, it does too. It's not just Wanikani that is a little creative with English name of radicals.

Doesn’t exactly rate much more than a few paragraphs, really.


The VN does have a couple of funny lines or so, but otherwise it’s poorly written, poorly edited, incredibly cheap, and generally screams its being a cash-in from the rooftops. It’s a textbook example of hack writing.

And the VN is still better than the light novel, which is so badly written it’s borderline unreadable, particularly at the beginning.
Who thought it was a good idea to make it a series of disjointed lines like it were a transcribed VN? Or make the narrator a third-person person despite not being one in the VN? There’s also casual cheerful light-hearted mind rape via hypnosis. All ages!

The stories themselves are so fake, so manufactured, so forced, so devoid of anything remotely resembling a point or a soul that even their sugar tastes like plastic.

And it didn’t even have sex scenes! What a waste.

You should read this, http://eow.alc.co.jp/search?q=%E3%81%84%E3%81%91%E3%81%AB%E3%81%88&ref=sa

For those of you who are still confused, remember your favorite shounen jump's serial. There ought to be character with titles there, hiken no Ace, or sharingan no kakashi. In English it's fire fist Ace and sharingan Kakashi.

So yuki no setsuna is snow Setsuna. Since there is ikenie and yuki, japanese norm is to state the first one mentioned first so it becomes "Sacrifice and snow Setsuna".

Now because it's English, "Setsuna of sacrifice and snow" sounds better. The same way Kakashi's becomes "Kakashi of the Sharingan" and Fire Fist Ace's should be "Ace of the Fire Fist" as well, literally speaking.

>>138668608
Pay a Japanese person to hang out with you all day and read things out loud for you.

>>138668640
RTK is the best resource you can get for learning how to write. It's in the CoR under 教本.

>>138668640
Buy a good kanji book. Learn the six classification of kanji, 形成文字 is a good term to know. Know about 音符 and 音符, and also being aware of the existence of 当て字 and other irregular readings.

Now study and utilize Anki like you usually do.

>>138668726
>>138668824
I'm more so just curious about the best way to prompt for writing because it seems like putting the actual character there would kind of be cheating.

>>138668852
Read the introduction of RTK.
You should be putting a keyword (you can also use a Japanese reading) on the front side and then write the kanji using the radicals you know.

Two years of doing the core6k decks. I did nothing else. I still have alot of trouble reading anything as I'm too lazy to read anything about grammar so I just guess. Though I did read some basic stuff.

I got a third right on the n3 sample test. Damn I feel so slow.

>>138667658
Is this a meme post? I'm sure I've seen this question before.

>>138668852
Do you want to write because you want be able to write and work for Japanese company? Or do you want to practice writing so that you won't confused one kanji and another?
If you want to be able to tell the difference between 会議　義理　礼儀　犠牲 then, what I said earlier.

If you want to write, the other anon is mostly correct, RTK is the most famous book on djt for the purpose of learning how to write kanji and while it's certainly a very good book, "best" is debatable.

I don't use Anki for writing practice so I can't give you answer on that aspect other than what pops onto my head when I read your question. Like maybe put on the front card the hiragana, i.e. れいぎ ぎり かいぎ ぎせい.

>>138669078
No shit you're going to feel slow if you just do two straight years of vocab, not to mention core vocab

>>138669122
>RTK is the most famous book on djt for the purpose of learning how to write kanji and while it's certainly a very good book, "best" is debatable.
If you know any books that better than RTK for this exact purpose, I'd be glad to know. Besides, anon explicitly said he wanted to write. Knowing the kanji phonetic components is only going to help with reading, not actual writing.

>>138669122
Name one situation where you would need to write. I'll give you taking notes even though you can do it in hiragana.

>>138669271
... Not to mention that it took 16 months to get through 6,000 vocab (12.5 words a day) and then he spent 8-9 months doing no new words

>>138669078
What was your cards/day ratio? Sorry to say dude, but this looks horrible. Two years for Core 6k damn, what a chore.
>>138669303
The anon he's replying too said he wanted to write.

>>138669122
On KD production cards you have the 'meaning' of the kanji and the on and kun yomi.

Why do so many of Tae Kim's example sentences have something to do with weight loss from not eating properly and stuff? Did he suffer from anorexia, or some shit?

>>138669078
And this is why telling someone "Yo, just go do Anki" is a bad idea.

Sorry you fell for the meme, dude, and wasted 2 years at an extremely glacial pace on fucking newspaper words.

People seriously need to understand that anything past 2k is SOLELY for if you didn't really feel like reading that much and you need to stick to your 20-40 new words a day pace. You throw in some Core just to make up the numbers because you'll probably see those words at some point anyway.

You don't just sit back and go through core while not working on any of the other elements of Japanese. If you were having fun, you could have easily done 2-4 times more words daily without burning out.

Are cards in Core2k in the same order as Core6k?

>>138669542
It depends on the deck.

>>138669344
>What was your cards/day ratio?
You can do that math yourself >>138669317
>>138669449
>And this is why telling someone "Yo, just go do Anki" is a bad idea.
He broke the two core tenants of anki - 1, he stopped adding new cards, and 2, he didn't mine his own new words. Nobody ever recommends to do anki and never read or never add new cards. It's always recommended with those two tenants implied or otherwise stated.

>>138669609
You're fully aware that his new cards ratio might very well have fluctuated, right?

>>138669449
>And this is why telling someone "Yo, just go do Anki" is a bad idea.
Literally no one has ever said that.

>>138669437
Asians are really obsessed with their weight so you'll no doubt hear these kinds of conversations frequently in Japan.

I completely made that up but I wouldn't be surprised if it was true considering how uncommon fat Asians are.

>>138669437
It's normal for Japanese and Korean people to talk about weight. At least for Japanese women, even the as-seen-on-TV カップサイズ is normal.

Does anyone know where I can find the Core 2k deck? I honestly can't find a link to anything that isn't 6k or 10k.

>>138669800
Why not simply go through the first 2k of the 2k/6k optimized in the CoR?

>>138669767
Its true but for girls only

>>138669842
Isn't the 2k/6k optimized in an order optimized to show you things based on kanji? Which would indicate that the first 2k of the 2k/6k isn't actually the same cards as 2k.

>>138669903
You should never go through the original 2k. Even if you wanted to go through 2k, you'd need the optimized i+1 version of the 2k (AKA nukemarine's version). That's the best way to go about Core. Don't try the old 2k, it's shit for learning.

>>138669903
It is the same. 2k (and 6k) is organized into steps of about 200 cards without much organization within the steps. The optimized version just puts the cards within the steps into an order based on kanji.

Japanese is going to be very useful in terms of advantages over my friends, for about the third time.
First time, he couldn't understand a south partk joke in Japanese.

If you're going to spend that much on a physical grammar, why wouldn't you spend your money on something more worthwhile like Japanese the Manga Way?

Since I don't have plans beyond understanding how to read and listen, the 97-Day Kanji Challenge by Nihongoshark appealed to me since it was basically RTK but Kanji -> Keyword.

I'm about 750ish cards in, but at this point I'm wondering if I should just switch to doing one of the KanjiDamage decks since it seems like it'll take me closer to my goal in the end.

Do you guys think it's worth starting over? I'd like to get through a Kanji recognition deck before the summer, since that's when I'll really be trying to learn.

>>138670253
If you're going to spend that much on a physical grammar, why wouldn't you spend your money on something more worthwhile like Shin Kanzen Master?

>>138669276
That anon also said
> it will help me stop confusing words with similar kanji.

>Knowing the kanji phonetic components is only going to help with reading, not actual writing.
I don't just say 音符 mate. I said 音符, 意符, and 形成文字。 Say 会ぎ。 I know it's a 義, but which 義?
Based on 意符, I can guesswork that it's "probably" the 言義 so 会議.
礼儀, same thing. It's a 人儀 so 礼儀. It doesn't always work every time as we all know, but it helps.

>If you know any books that better than RTK >for this exact purpose, I'd be glad to know.
Yeah totally. I prefer Hadamitzky's book to RTK. I compared both in the beginning and I like how Hadamitzky's book is structured compared to RTK.

Secondly, without going into much details, I much prefer Hadamitzky's radical explanations compared to Heisig's "primitive" explanations.

Somewhere before the first 100 kanji, Heisig taught a "primitive" called "mist" and "by one's side". That is Heisig's own entry for his book, not of the 214 kangxi radicals.
I also like the fact that Hadamitzky's book let me know that 心 is called りっしんべん since it helps me figured out that 忄is going to be on the 編 side of the kanji.

It's just preference. I know somebody who swore by RTK, another that used Hadamitzkys, and somebody else whose favorite kanji book is Kanji in Context, which is no longer in publication.

Reordering kanji to make it easier to memorize is done by other kanji books too these days, RTK is not the only one that does that. I don't disagree that RTK is excellent, "best" is just debatable to me.

>>138670485
It's really hard to say... If you just started out I'd say to KD, but as you are already so far in... Although you might just do KD with more new cards (40 a day or something) as you should already know many.

>>138669303
Honestly, on djt I have a slight opinion that it's not that necessary to know how to write, especially if the main goal is to play VN. I think writing is only ever useful for those whose goal is beyond just japanese comprehension. Like maybe working in Japan or for japanese company or something.

>>138670509
> 心 is called りっしんべん
心 isn't called that, 忄is called that.

Perhaps you didn't know that you can actually type radicals in your IME

>>138670509
>Hadamitzkys
Thanks for the reference, I didn't know! And by best, I don't mean best kanji book, I mean best kanji book to learn how to write. This is quite different. I don't think there's a better order that RTK for learning how to write.

>all these retards shilling for remember the nothing
Pathetic. I thought you were better than that.

I have a request. Can you give one specific example of kanji -> keyword in Nihongoshark?

What's the keyword for 義?
On RTK 義 -> Righteousness. Next to it is written "sheep...ego". So the 義 kanji's RTK's own primitive is "sheep".

How does Nihongoshark tackle the 義 kanji? Can you check it out for me? I'm somewhat curious.

I think Kodansha is better, but it honestly doesn't matter much.

＞忄is called りっしんべん
Yes. I was wrong on the 心 part, thank you for the correction! I copy-pasted忄from wiki's 心部 entry. Thanks for the advice on IME, I didn't know that.


>>138670962
> I don't think there's a better order that RTK for learning how to write.
Like I said, RTK is not the only book that reorder Kanji to make it easier to learn. Some other books out there are doing it too these days.

That said, if it's specifically about order, I agree with you that RTK is excellent in ordering. It makes it easy to write while keeping the momentum going.

Sure I can see that knowing the "mist" primitive will makes it easier to write 朝 and knowing the "sheep" primitive will make it easier to write 義.

But then I have to remember these "mist", "sheep", "by one's side", etc primitives that Heisig made.


Heisig's personal systematic primitives that aren't part of the 214 radicals is just confusing to me personally.

>best kanji book to learn how to write.
I use the Hadamitzky's book for my writing study, and I do find it better in terms of my own progress.

Though specifically in terms of absolute 1-2000 kanji order, RTK order is better.

>>138671373
No clue I haven't paid any attention to that, probably not very high, maybe 3?

>>138662142
What are the benefits from using those KD decks instead of the vanilla one?

>>138671401
I believe Wanikani itself teaches radicals before you can move on to kanji, but either way, radicals -> kanji/vocab is the common practice. Learn radicals so you can break down/understand kanji, learn kanji so you can read vocab, learn vocab to learn kanji better, that's how it goes

>>138671484
I meant, including the resources we have at DJT. I don't know for Kodansha since I only have the dictionary app.
>>138671494
Yes, I'm only speaking about the order to write. I don't really like his primitives either.

>>138671564
>I meant, including the resources we have at DJT. I don't know for Kodansha since I only have the dictionary app.
That's fair. I dont even know if there is a rip of the Kodansha course anywhere you pretty much have to buy it physically if you want it which is obviously a lot less convenient for many people.

I think it's pretty much the best singular resource for learning kanji though, especially for someone who wants to write.

>>138671420
Thanks for the info anon, you're very kind. Good luck on your study regardless of what you decide with your choices.

>>138671509
What about utilizing both? Use Core 6k on your Anki and do KD one way or another.

I read KD website (just several pages so far), for the laugh. Does the deck retains all his website's information? Like the Beta tag, his list of vocabs, and explanation of the context of when said vocabs are used?

If I were in your shoe, I would read his website first before I turn to the KD deck, in case the deck is not an exact copy-paste of his website.

Or you can just do the KD deck if you think it's more beneficial, I don't know.

Kodoku no Gurume/Solitary Gourmet seems like it would be a pretty good thing to leave on the background and glance at from time to time while not-learning Japanese.

I only just started on the first episode but I recommend it.

It's short too. 12 episodes and each only 24 minutes long.

It's a live action drama just so you understand.

>>138671735
The deck has all that stuff from his website + stroke orders, I've only ver gone there following the links in his vocab sections.

I was asking something more along the lines of what do those two KD decks have to offer that a regular KD deck doesn't.

I at least have a superficial knowledge about this one. Somebody wrote on djt that Plus+ deck changes some of KD's mnemonics, particularly those that are too edgy.

kek, I don't think that's possible no. You're better off just finishing KD and renaming yourself the radicals that don't work with you. (That's what I did personally.)

I wonder if it's a good idea to mine from a word list of all words in a novel
For example in my mining deck I have 10k words, and the word list for LOGH was 20k words, so by default I don't know a minimum of 10k words from it, so perhaps mining the most common ones I didn't know would be wise.

I did 10-20 new words a day for awhile, then recently I did 40 words a day for at least a month maybe two; it all adds up to to 16 months.

I mention mining from a word list because I actually have 23 unseen words left and thus can no longer do 40 words/day. The normal stuff I'm compelled to read doesn't have enough vocab so this seems like a good compromise between reading compelling content + still making progress in anki (frankly it's this or stop doing new cards in anki).

The normal stuff I'm compelled to read doesn't have enough vocab so this seems like a good compromise between reading compelling content + still making progress in anki (frankly it's this or stop doing new cards in anki).
It's not a bad idea at all then. But you should try to read more varied things.

Are all the N1 grammar points in the DOJG? Actually, does the whole DOJG series cover all Japanese grammar points?

>>138672448
>But you should try to read more varied things.
I read a variety of things, some chuunige here, a moege here, the wikipedia page for market economies there. The only time I get significant enough vocab to effectively mine is when I read so much a day I'm forcing myself to keep doing, or when I read something I don't want to in the first place. For example, I'm interested in LOGH, but it's stuffy enough and I read slow enough that I get bored pretty quickly and would rather read other things. This is a weakness I acknowledge but none the less must work with or, preferably, around (via wordlist).

>>138672511
It's pretty much impossible to cover *all* of the grammar points of a natural language.

>>138672658
Nah, not if the language is a sensible one.

>>138672511
>Are all the N1 grammar points in the DOJG?
No.

Or well, I don't know if there's an official list of the grammar points for each level, but there's a couple of points that aren't covered in DOJG that you find in prep books for N1.

>>138672764
I don't think it's official but I use this

>>138672724
It's pretty difficult to draw a line between grammar and just words and their use.
Even a lot of the N1 "grammar" is just words which have a kind of specific usage but which no Japanese person would call grammar.

>>138672724
Box - Boxes
Ox - not Oxes but Oxen

Mouse - Mice
House - Not Hices but Houses

Language is only "perfectly" "sensible" to it's natives.

DoAG is a dictionary, if you want to prepare for N1, get an N1 preparation book. I think.

How can you read slowly if it's been so long you've started reading and you already have more than 2k mined words?

Lots of unknown words. Slow is pretty relative, it's slow for me. I pick up a LN and pause maybe for one word. I pick up LOGH and every line has a high chance of containing an unknown word, probably more. Plus frequently I need to re-read sections to understand the underlying point in the context of the series.

>>138673161
But then, how are you gonna be able to get better if you don't confront yourself to harder works that require you to do exactly that? Unless your goal is to stay at your level, but then what use is there in mining a word list?

>>138673107
How many "guys" we should collectively ignore that are on djt just to mess the threads?

There is that one guy that rarely use capital letters.
There is another guy that always say the opposite of other people's advice and argue semantically just to incite reaction.
There is another guy that always said "beginner should not give advice".

How many people you think are on djt that we should collectively ignore to make djt a better place? Or are those 3 people all the same guy?

Ah yeah, I also remember there is this one guy that talked about purple prose or some stuff, and his opponent that was talking in a paragraph describing cat jumping from a tree, to argue the 'purple prose' guy.

>>138673215

This one was great.
>>138673271
Because you don't know the exact context of the word, it could mean something else. If anything, go for J-J cards. And just learning new words won't make it easier to understand the underlying point in the context of the series.

Imouto is not here 'only to mess the thread' though. I'd rather have imouto giving useful advice than shills or stupid arguments.

>>138673320
I find that context is often over-rated in the context of learning vocabulary so I'm not worried about that.

Re-reading sections is not due to lack of proficiency in the language it's just a natural result of reading more difficult material. I re-read stuff in English too.

>>138673375

バカなの？ いもうとはOLEV！

>>138673446
I think that is the case for the beginner stuff, but when you enter the realm of more advanced Japanese vocabulary, words tend to have a lot more nuances than a single word in English. It's the same in English, really. There are words you can't simply translate without losing a little meaning.

>Re-reading sections is not due to lack of proficiency in the language it's just a natural result of reading more difficult material. I re-read stuff in English too.
Perhaps, but then you shouldn't be doing that often, LOGH is not the hardest thing to read in English. I don't think you'd be rereading in English every chapter to make sure you understood.

Alright my very first question is, the past few hours djt have been very civil. Like C I V I L. Where are those people? Were they simultaneously got banned at the same time or they just happened to be absent at the exact same time of day, like how the 7 skies just happened to align after centuries like in Thor The Dark World?

>This one was great.

I don't understand where that 2 guys came from. They are japanese learners like us? I mean, I understand study method wars, but a war about "what is the proper way to make descriptions in fictional writings" is just so far out of japanese and djt, it hurts my head how were those 2 so passionate in defending their position for hours.

>>138673375
The Japanese guys. Are there 2 japanese guys here, 'imouto uploader' anon, and 'English-speaking Japanese' anon or is there only 1 guy?

Or is it three guys? I remember there is another guy that gives advice about chicks and 実体験 a week or so back.

>>138673540
I actually think that's the opposite of true. Beginner stuff requires a lot of context to understand whereas more advanced stuff is less nuanced due to how rarely its used, and the high number of basic nouns/verbs.

>>138673598

>>138673646
I politely disagree. While beginners have a lot of adverbs and verbs that have multiple meaning, the higher register used in more complex pieces (such as poetry or novels) have a very subtle meaning (hence why they're used over their simpler counterpart).
Of course, it depends on what you're reading. If by complex we mean a tutorial on how to code in C++, then indeed the words will be very specific. But in fiction, words tend to be more subtle than we really think they are. We use context a lot when we're reading to guess the meaning of the word, even when we don't exactly know the full meaning of it. That's why people doing essays and such use a dictionary to make sure that the words in the title have the exact meaning they're thinking of.

>>138673674
Well yeah but we are on djt. There is only one djt in /a/. I actually wondered whether they are actually currently learning japanese or whether they were unrelated party that just happened to found that djt thread and subsequently argued the thread for hours on end.

I start to understand people who want djt gone with the circlejerk shit and obvious ledditurds.

>>138673846
I see what you mean, but that layer of subtlety is pretty insignificant in works like LOGH as far as I'm concerned. It (and novels like it) puts plot and ideas first and uses words clearly and directly to describe them. Not a whole lot of subtly. In a lot of the fiction/sci-fi books I read, even in English, it's generally the same.

Furthermore! What I've discovered is that even natives struggle with that layer of subtlety. Natives learn words purely through context and exposure (plus school vocab lists), and that results in a lot of misunderstandings building up, or otherwise basic understandings of words. So, I'm not too worried about piercing that veil. That goes beyond learning a foreign language, and enters the territory of academic mastery of a language, as far as I'm concerned.

>tfw my grades are declining because I keep skipping lectures to stay at home studying Japanese

>>138674053
in high school, back when we lived in a world where the towers hadnt fallen, i used to bring japanese materials into my spanish class and would spend the that period studying japanese

it was a time where you could get away with using online translation sites for all of your assignments, even composition, so thats how i still passed spanish without learning any of it

>>138674020
Nope, not from what I can see.

>>138674044
I haven't read that much sci-fi so I admit you must be right. Still, I think that a lot of novels use words that have more subtle meanings. But well, that's not what we're talking about there.

Of course it depends on what you want to achieve. When I'm learning a new language, I try to learn the most accurate definition of a word I can get before moving on. Since I'm not a native, it allows me to rely on something else than my intuition only (which might be flawed). Having said that, the only other language I've learned aside from my mother tongue is English (and progressively Japanese), so I might be wrong into thinking that Japanese vocabulary works the same way.

Should I spend time on a radicals deck? It'd only take a week or so, anyway.

>>138674294
Sure why not. It's always useful when learning vocab. You can also do it at the same time you're going through Core2k if you want.

Why not just play VNs instead? At least it would be more fun, and you'd probably pick up more vocab.
