So I guess I’ll start from the beginning; utter frustration and despair. I was attempting to read Full metal alchemist, typically rated as a pretty difficult read for learners and I learned the hard way why that is. I took on the challenge like I did with Yotsubato and tried to learn everything and then re-read the chapter after my vocab caught up. But nothing would stick, nothing made sense, and nothing helped. So I took my vocab list to my friend and asked him to look over it. It was pretty obvious to him why I was having trouble. The words were mostly written only, seldom used, or archaic words. Words I’m not going to be using well for a long time. That’s when I realized why it isn’t a good idea to try and read above your level. It’s not that it’s difficult; it’s that you’re never going to use it outside of reading that one subject or level of reading. It was difficult because those words didn’t fit in with my life or anything I would say or otherwise read. They truly had no meaning to me. That was my first lesson to getting better; I gave up on Full metal and returned to focus completely on finishing Yatsubato.

>>138863240
It's a good idea to read above your level, but preferably something with non-obsolete vocabulary.
>>138863276
The next lesson was a bit harder to swallow. I have a friend who is also learning Japanese, who is actually pretty fluent. I ran into him and asked for help.He ended up helping me the best way he could. He took me to a snack bar. What happened next actually really pissed me off though. There he was having a normal conversation with the bar staff without missing a beat. But the envy wasn’t what ticked me off. It’s that I understood every word he said, and every word she said but if you asked me what they were talking about I’d have no clue what was going on. (WTF???)

Imagine meeting someone with 2/3rds the Vocab, half the Kanji and half the grammar knowledge but there they are speaking casually while you mumble out incoherent sentences. I was really annoyed at myself, that night proved that i already had the knowledge i was only missing the ability. It was a good crash course though; we ended up with two girls and we just talked all night. It really forced me to talk because the girl would just stare waiting for my garbled broken response, then she would figure out what I meant and kindly try to move the conversation on simply enough for me to understand. Going home that night I realized why my own progress was so stunted. My friends that I talk to regularly, all speak English. Any time the conversations slowed they switched to English to keep the conversation going. It was like this with all my friends. The conversation was more important than learning the language. That and since their English was much better than my Japanese, we would always gravitate to English. It was a real eye opener but I was kind of skeptical. So I tested it.

these threads are usually pretty good for learning.
>>138865703
Or you could just get the raw of a manga you like and read it.
Whenever I see something written in a language I don't know I always avoid looking at it, especially if it's a doujin or whatever with Chinese subs. I feel like it'd mess with my brain and make me lose all of my Japanese gains if I'd look at it and try to understand it.
Just now I watched some Love Live video subbed in Portuguese and was trying hard to not look at the subs and just listen to them talking because I didn't want my brain to needlessly learn a language I don't give a shit about. Like they were counting and I refused to look at it.
Am I the only one?

>>138865877
I can see how it could be helpful, but the thing is translations (especially random amateur ones, the official ones can be bad too) aren't incredibly reliable all the time, so if the guy makes a mistake in translating and you do too, you'll read the mistranslated bit and then that'll reinforce your misunderstanding on how a piece of grammar works. Beyond using the Yotsuba reading pack for the first 2 volumes, I wouldn't really check with translations for actual content.
>>138865911
>>138866035
Very illuminating.
>>138865835
1) if you don't know the grammar or a word it's obvious and easy to look up
2) massive exposure will eventually iron out 99.9% of misunderstandings (so as a beginner its ok to misunderstand)
3) if you are misunderstanding, conversations and narration won't make logical sense in some way or another

Guys I just got Tobira a week ago, I have been going through the first few chapters with ease. I figured it would get hard soon, but when I checked the final few chapters I found I knew all the words and grammar points. Did I just waste 50 burgers? Sure the book is harder than genki but its hardly the gateway to fluency. 上級 my ass 中級 at best.

>>138868659
>its pretty much N1 plus.
Tobira? I doubt it
>>138868634
Yea I did not need a textbook, just more reading, vocab/kanji.
>>138868659
I feel like it's incorrect to disparage something as "easy" only because it covers more basic material.
>>138868659
Nice try, but I downloaded Tobira and it's far from N1.
>>138868759
Tobira covers N1 grammar but not N1 kanji or vocab.
>>138868728
Isnt that the definition of easy?
What JLPT level/equivalent will core 2k/6k take me to? I'm only 25% into it, and I'm occasionally tackling N2 vocab, and want to take the test at the end of the year.
I can't decide whether I should go for 15/20/25 words a day. I feel like I learn well and quickly at 15, but I can finish the deck in under half a year if I jump back up to 25.
>>138868874
Does it cover all N1 grammar or a couple of points? By the latter measure Tae Kim can be N1+ as well.
>>138869002
Core is not in JLPT order, its kind of all over the place.
>>138869057
There's a bit of an annoying order to it, I feel based off similar kanji/readings, though it is strange to learn "ramen" 1000+ words in. I don't mind too much, because it makes some days easier than others.
But yeah, I'm curious what "level" it will get me to. Even 25% of the way through, there's lots of words that I'd never even use living in Japan now (no one says 従来 for instance, and that came up fairly early) and some elicit shock from friends that hear me studying.
>>138869318

What are your reading tendencies? Do you ever read multiple things at once or do you adopt a "pump and dump" mentality?
I ask because I'm ~400 words mined into Hanahira and getting a bit tired of it. At first the novelty of actually being able to read native Japanese was exciting but now I am realizing it is a pretty damn run-of-the-mill SoL with yuri undertones and I'm not sure I want to read it all the way through.

>>138868442
That's what you get from listening to reddit newfag. Now go back over there.
>>138870287
Remember - the goal is to read COMPELLING content. "compelling" isn't something to ignore as linguist mumbo jumbo, it's important - read stuff that *COMPELLS* you to read it, stuff you're interested in. If you're not compelled to read something, drop it like an ugly baby.
Note: This applies to language learning, but not necessarily real life, pushing through things you don't feel compelled to do often is valuable. It's just that in terms of language learning, simple mass-exposure is arguably more important than quality of exposure and thus being compelled is very important (because to become fluent you need to expose yourself to a LOT of content and if it's not compelling content it'll be hell and take fucking forever due to procrastination, whereas if it's compelling content you'll have a good time gaining the requisite exposure).

>Do you ever read multiple things at once
I'm reading like 15 things at once, depending on my mood.
>100 more reviews per day after a month
Does it just keep rising like this forever? If I stick to the same amount of new cards, will I have 1400 reviews per day next year?
>>138870952
You don't need "practice" at all you're just asking for everyone to translate your fucking porn. If you had bothered reading the OP you could've learned Hiragana in days and translate these stuff on your own. This is a blue board now fuck off.
My number of reviews is kind of getting out of hand for my current schedule. Will not doing new cards for a while help bring it down? Would it be better to just put a limit on the reviews than not doing new cards?
>>138871050
そんな!
>>138870997
It evens out at about new cards*10 because of SRS algorithm and then grows extremely slowly until you stop adding new cards.
>>138870997
Grows logarithmically. Theoretically if you stuck to the same amount of cards/day for as long as you learn Japanese it would increase forever, but that doesn't happen since eventually you ease off on new cards as you know more and more. But like >>138871140 it typically "evens out" at about 10 times your new cards/day.
>>138871175
>>138871140
That's a relief. I'm at 20 a day, so I guess that's why it's approaching 200 so quickly.
>>138869002
I think there are JLPT decks on Ankiweb if that's really what you're looking for.
I'd say if you finish Core6k I'd say you would have somewhere between N3-N2 level vocab and kanji. Actually being able to read Japanese at N2 level, at speed, is a different thing from merely knowing all the vocab.
There are textbooks that teach to the JLPT, try getting a copy of Nihongo Sou Matome N3 (use google), specifically the Dokkai (reading comprehension) book, and working through that.

6 months maybe?
My problem was just that a lot of those kanji only appeared in 1 card so my mature retention was abysmal (I'd go months without seeing the kanji, and thus had no chance of getting the card right 1-2 months later). Furthermore, my young retention was poor due to having to learn a new kanji every other word, which made every single card harder. Right now I'm doing 40 new cards a day with 400 reviews, simply because I know all the kanji in the deck pretty well.

>>138872710
You mouseover the entry you want and import that. Works for most cases. If it's a case where the word has the same kanji but different readings, then you can try importing the hiragana, but you'll probably still have to manually copy and paste the definition and/or sentence into the card. Even then, it's a quick job to fix up and the vast majority of words don't require any manual work.

retention will shoot up when you've actually studied Japanese enough to read things fairly easily and thus consume enormous amounts of content; right now I wouldn't be surprised if the majority of your exposure to Japanese was anki, relatively
>>138872971
Did you study the extra shit like how つ creates the double consonant sound?
>>138873229
I do more than 10 minutes for sure. And I watch anime, but with english subs. I'll turn them off then.
>>138873242
I studied the sound and made images in my head of how they look. What do you mean by meaning?
>>138873326
Yeah, it's called a glotal consonant or something like that.
>>138870287
If you've already mined 400 words, you should be pretty far in. Finishing Hanahira was a huge confidence boost for me, so if you are near the end, I would recommend just finishing it.
>>138873459
400 words is not that far since my vocab was very lacking going in. All I had done was Core2k + another thousand. The main problem is I have no idea how long it actually is, if I knew I were close to finishing it I probably would, but I get the feeling I'm only about 10% in or so.

Is there a list somewhere of all the Kanji variants? I know websites like jisho show if there are any when browsing a particular Kanji but I don't see myself browsing one by one all the Kanji I know, it'd take days.
By Kanji variants I mostly mean old forms / rarely or unused forms of Kanji like those for example 畳 / 疊.

I think this capitalization-of-kanji disease shows that most English speakers don't actually understand proper nouns and just approximate correct usage by capitalizing anything that doesn't sound like an English word.

It's just an old habit, sorry I triggered your autism.

That's a lot of dicks, senpai.
Do anyone else have an issue with mining very explicitly lewd words? Words like 陰核 would be useful to review once in a while, but knowing it might pop up when I least expect it would completely prevent me from ever doing my reps when people can see me. A lot of nukige vocabulary will be totally innocent out of context, but it would be pretty hard to explain why you need to know 陰核.
>>138876019
I tag words like that so if I know I'm going to be studying where people are watching I can just move them to another deck temporarily.

>prevent me from ever doing my reps when people can see me
Why would you do your reps around people? If it's such a problem for you then rename clitoris into sweet peach or something.
>>138876019
What the fuck? Why is it a penis and a clitoris at the same time?
>>138876220
Do you know nothing of biology?
>>138876271
I don't have that in my Anki deck, so I guess not.
>>138876220
>he doesnt have a clit dick
>>138876220
They're homologous to each other, so it makes sense.
In some species (or deformed specimens of other species), you can spot a particularly large and portruding clitoris that looks a bit like a penis slit along the bottom.
>>138876354

Never saw 陰核 used for penis, it's usually 陰茎 or something like that in serious medic-sounding stuff.
From Tae Kim:

Shouldn't it be something along the lines of "money is the thing that didn't exist" like he usually uses for が?

Mind controlling parasites are nice too, but they've been overplayed on mainstream sites to the point of becoming cliche.
It's not my own cup of tea, but the right youtube searches can lead you to Indian doctors who proudly post HD videos of their adventures treating enormous blackheads and other skin conditions in the Indian countryside.
Brain research animal experiments are also pretty fucked up, and the well knows ones have accessible write-ups available. There's the usual stuff like cutting out (or disabling) parts of the brain, and then it gets even worse with stuff like raising young animals while witholding one thing or the other.
>>138876797
Don't sweat the English translation, just try and inetrnalize the various functions of が.
>>138876797
が has a couple of uses/nuances. Learn them by example rather than trying to force rules.

Reading often actually makes me fuck up more sometimes. When seeing new words all the time, I get so used to words being new that I sometimes accidentally treat a word I already know as a new one, and take a half-assed guess at it instead of just searching in my memory.

>>138886797
Duolingo doesn't have Japanese

>>138886797
To be honest it's shit like that which leads me to avoid most language learning forums... every question for which "anki" is a perfect answer, getting bullshit responses like duolingo and trash psuedo-flashcard websites... it boggles the mind. I have to avoid them, to save myself the time of ranting about Anki 24/7.

Then why are you complaining about rar and zip? You aren't making any sense at all. Think before typing.

When you're stuck on a sentence, it can be a great opportunity to learn from it by consulting a grammar guide and examining the dictionary entries extra carefully. But don't waste too much time on it. There's some things you just won't learn without absorbing it through exposure, which you'll only get if you let yourself move on and read more.
Basically, if you feel you're getting nowhere with a sentence, just move on.

This is amazing.
>>138895592
How does that work? Do you hand write the ones you're just learning or forgot, or what?
>>138890395
Don't stuck at one point and memorize the 6-7 different English meaning before moving on, that's recipe for disaster. Common words have multiple meanings, just accept the fact. Just know the general idea behind the pictogram 上and 下 means and then read. The more you read the easier to understand it.
Just fyi, 出る 出す also have as much meaning acc. to jisho.org. So does a couple other very common verbs. Just roll with it by reading more.

Question:
I'm stuck on using people and verbs. How would I say:
"Ms. Toyota goes to college at seven."
Is it, "Shichiji ni Toyota-san daigaku ni ikimase"?

>>138896812
Yeah, i'm just a newbie.
>>138896760
Thank you, I think I got it. So it would be something like "Shichiji ni Toyota-san wa daigaku de ikimasu."
>>138896404
>it becomes amazing in combination with cute and expressed in japanese
This. I'm also pleasantly surprised that a Japanese person also doesn't want to update to that shit instead of just doing what it told them to do.
>>138896665
that should be the first thing you learn.
drop your grammar for a bit and learn the kana: hiragana and katakana. should be no problem, won't take too long to get to the level of being able to read them. it'll be slow at first, of course, but speed and general skill in it will come naturally while trying to read to stuff and learning other parts of the language.

Is it possible to edit the meanings and sentence examples in the core6k deck? Some words make much more sense in my native language.
>>138899107
Also, I'm using AnkiDroid.
>>138899107
Ye.
Also, as a fellow non-EOP, that's not such a good idea since you're translating the words instead of conceptualizing them.
>>138899107
There's an edit button for a reason
>>138899222
How?
Well, I wasn't referring to the meanings themselves, but rather the concepts. For example, これ/それ/あれ make more sense in Spanish and Portuguese because they're equivalent to este/ese/aquel and este/esse/aquele.
>>138899222
its not like you can conceptualize them without seeing/hearing them in various contexts anyway
>>138899283
Whoops, sorry. Don't know how I missed that. Thanks, anon.
What are some stupid/funny things to do to memorize kanji/phrases? When I first started learning Japanese I did RTK and such but I started making my own saying to memorize things. Like すみません. The first part sounds like 'sue me' and the ません part I knew as a negative verb, so I remembered it as 'don't sue me.' I'm curious if any of you have these things you make up. The funnier the better!
>>138899619
Ha, my class did sue-me-ません too.
We also came up with a 出口 monster, it's as big as two mountains 山 and it's coming to eat you and you better get out. Similarly, 肉 is two people 人 trying to escape an enclosure before they get eaten. Someone also felt that the 丙 in 病 really looked like a headless person on a bed. Obviously very ill. ...my class was kind of morbid sometimes.
I remember snickering at 薬 (oh yes, the FUN grass) when I first saw it, but it's kind of tame next to 轢. Kanji, we need to talk about the things you find fun and relaxing.

Motivation is a myth. If you don't want to study japanese, give up.
>>138902356
ねこさんに「おはよう」っていったら
ニャーって言った
>>138902254
motivation is too delicate to be an essential part. take it when it comes, but you can't rely on it.
most things you do in life do not have motivation behind them, per se, but rather are just habitual. and most people are not aware of how habitual their lives are, how much the brain automates what they do.
the most important thing therefore is developing habits, habits to study hard daily, do your reps, study grammar, practice reading, writing, listening and speaking, any and all of it. and of course recognizing and avoiding your typical trash habits which obstruct your new hardcore-studying ones.
when you've properly created habits out of that, it doesn't matter if you don't feel like it, it's just what you do. you will feel compelled to do that stuff beyond how that gay little motivation makes you feel.

How did I go so many years just playing vidya all day? Learning skills can obviously be a bit of a challenge at times, but goddamn, it's far more rewarding and interesting than spending all day on activities that are shallow enough to have a skill cap.

Replace the exe in the main folder.

>How did I go so many years just playing vidya all day?
I agree. So many years wasted. I could be fluent in Japanese and probably be able to make a living off of programming by now had I spent that time properly. I feel guilty playing video games now unless it's in moderation with other people I know so I can justify it as a social thing since I'm a bit of a shut-in.
Better now than never I guess, but still a bit annoying.

Probably because old games didn't have skill caps.

Why not just say "writing for the purpose of____" instead of "engaged"?
>>138903702
Thank you, this works. I had already tried the other anons' suggestions. The replacement .exe in the DL from Animebytes is broken for some reason. It wouldn't really be a big deal to leave it mounted either way, but thank you.

If you spend every day of the rest of your life playing Dune 2000, you will quickly reach a point where there's nothing left to learn.
Masters in linguistics, programming, and cooking go to their graves with more to learn, even after a lifetime in their field. The fields are constantly evolving and growing under the influence of new knowledge and changing trends.
There's a huge difference in the scale of the challenge that we're facing here and the challenge of learning to play Dune 2000. Even after we reach a native level of vocabulary, there will always be room to become more elegant in Japanese, as well as to expand our vocabulary even further. In regards to foreign language learning in general, there are many more languages to learn.
