Well, guys, I guess this is it. These past 2 years have been nice and I'm grateful to you all, but now that I'm fluent in Nihongo (Japanese), I don't have any reason to frequent DJT anymore.

I always thought it was funny how people in our culture like to use curse words so casually in everyday life (usually because they think it's cool)
that when the time comes to emphasize something they find they have nothing available to them to signify "now I really mean it" so they just come up with increasingly unique/aggressive ways to say the same thing.

Studies show people who curse more often are emotionally stronger than those who don't.

One is just passive.

>cursing means you're emotionally tough

This is interesting because I've always been regarded as well-spoken and intelligent by my peers but I fucking swear all the time; even when explaining something complex and technical and even during formal meetings.

I also live alone and haven't had a girlfriend since I was in high school. I don't socialize offline at all. I am steadfast in all that I do, and I'm not bouncing off the walls.

You can say 「僕は君を行かすわけにはいかない」 (I won't/can't let you go), but you cannot say 「僕は君を行かされるわけにはいかない」 because you have to replace 「を」 particle with 「に」 to be grammatically correct. But this changes the meaning to "I cannot be made to go by you" (「僕は君に行かされるわけにはいかない」). This expression is pretty awkward even if it's grammatically correct.

Anyone know who the guy is that the news in Japan is going crazy about, the guy who cheated on his wife with 5 different women.
Why is cheating so weird in Japan, they just get forgiven and with a public apology and then everything is fine.

http://www.yukawanet.com/archives/5025977.html

I assume the religious differences mean they aren't so focused on infidelity and the cultural differences like they used to be able to have more than one wife.

Japan is stuck in the 1800s and thinks it's not really a big deal if the husband cheats on the wife.

even in this apology notice on his website, his wife apologies to everyone because "as a wife I am responsible".

Having a little trouble with the following:
捜査当局は、男がパリの同時テロ事件に関連した調べなどが進むなかで追い詰められ
It comes from this:
>ベルギーで起きた連続テロ事件で、実行犯の男のものとみられるパソコンに「いずれ捕まることになる」と書き残されていたことが新たに分かり、捜査当局は、男がパリの同時テロ事件に関連した調べなどが進むなかで追い詰められ、犯行に及んだ可能性もあるとみて、捜査を進めています。
Does Verb + なかで, X, mean that X is occuring within the timespan of the verb? How is this different from 間?At the point 追い詰められ, isn't the subject still 捜査当局? Because it's in passive form, doesn't this mean that 捜査当局 themselves have been driven into a corner or tracked down? I know that with context I can tell that it's the opposite situation but I would like clarification about the grammar.
>>
>>139016138
Can ながら and のに be used interchangeably to emphasize that two clauses are opposite in meaning? For example, in this sentence from All About Particles, it looks like you could use either and it would have the same meaning
>高木さんが体が弱いと言いながら、よく夜遅くまで酒を飲んでいる。
>Although Takagi says he is in poor health, he often drinks late into the night.
Or am I just missing some subtle difference?

>毎日漢字を勉強しているのによく覚えられません。
I haven't really studied how passive is used, however the the dictionary says a common characteristic of the Japanese passive is that the event is not under the control of those affected by it. Is that why it's used here? Does the sentence make sense without the passive?

I don't really know why I stumbled across this, and it's probably still ahead of what I am learning currently, but my understanding is that this can be used to say you did not do something. For example, 知らなかった and 知らず translate to roughly the same thing, right? Japanese keyboards seem to recognize it as a valid sentence, but I'm sort of reluctant to use it because I don't know exactly what it means. Translators also seem widely inconsistent when I try different verbs such as 分からず、寝ず、etc.

TL;DR: What is the difference between なかった and ず verb ending?

Still trying to understand the NHK News, but I encountered a sentence which is giving me some trouble and I have an inclination - but cannot resolve part of it.

http://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/20160318/k10010448831000.html

The sentence is: このため自衛隊は部隊の展開を進めていて、PAC3のほかに、高性能レーダーを備えた海上自衛隊のイージス艦を日本の周辺海域に派遣するなどして北朝鮮に"動きがないか"警戒することにしています。
I understood everything else without issue, but I am wondering if my inclination is correct. The final clause seems to say: "(The JSDF) ...will be vigilant even if there there is no action by North Korea." The weird part is the non-movement matter with the ka particle which I think can be translated as "If there is no movement". It makes sense, militarily, but is the focus on the JSDF watching the North Korea's (continued) non-movement with vigilance (from now) or despite the non-movement (of the past week)?
Also, this article is N2-level right? The only weird words were "破壊措置命令", "周辺海域" and the "迎撃" part of 迎撃ミサイル besides my confusion stemming from the rather complex sentence.

"will be vigilant if there is any action by NK"
It's a "whether A or not" clause. It doesn't logically matter whether it's a negative or positive. In Japanese, a negative is often used.

I just woke up and did my reps. Feels fucking great.

I used to be really hung up on mining my new daily cards on the same day I do them, since it gives me a chance to remember them when they pop up in Anki after reading them. But when you have to mine your words before doing your reps, it's too easy to put it off. By the time I've mined my words and can do my reps, it's so late that I'm tired and the words barely stick anymore.

Just mining everything you might need to review whenever you read anything is definitely the best way to go. Even if you end up with 200+ new cards that you'll have completely forgotten you added by the time you get them, it's totally worth it to be able to do your reps first time in the morning.

How do you people learn kanji?
I tried a kanji deck and had a hard time remembering them with no good context for them
I tried RTK, it had no readings so I dropped it
I tried core6k, I felt like I only really learned the words and general shape of the kanji and would keep confusing similiar looking ones

I did core 6k, started reading regularly, used heisig for a while and then dropped it. Since finishing 6k I've been doing mined decks and reading. I think Heisig's story thing is useful but it just wastes so much time. I would probably recommend looking up the heisig number on kanji you confuse and then going backwards through the elements they are made up of instead of going through the whole sequence.

Anyone else think that it feels easier to practice with things that aren't fun?

I can spend hours reading/listening to those more intermediate and advanced Nihongonomori grammar lessons where the lessons are all in Japanese and there are no English subtitles, but it's hard for me to stop my mind from wandering when I try to read a VN or some manga.

As long as everything feels like a chore then I can stay focused because it feels like I'm studying, but as soon as that line between studying and fun begins to blur then my mind switches to free-time lazy mode as if I was taking a break and playing a video game for fun and not for studying.

I dread the day that I finish all of these lessons and I have to switch to fun things. My progress will probably die.

I wonder if the Japanese people on the English equivalent of DJT read books like this and argue about what it means.

>Ef it wuz HIM dat 'uz bein' sot free

>Ef - (Old Saxon conjuction) 1. If, when
>Wuz - (South Scots) simple past tense of be
>Dat - Representing a colloquial pronunciation of that, likely from African American vernacular.
>Uz or Oghuz Turks, a group of loosely linked nomadic Turkic peoples
>Bein (genitive Beins or Beines, plural Beine) - leg of a person, animal or object
>From Middle English sot, from Old English sot, sott (“foolish, stupid”)

>"You retards are never going to learn English if you can't understand context. It's obvious that Tom Sawyer is cleverly utilizing context and a mixture of Old Saxon dialect, South Scottish dialect, African American vernacular, and Old English to tell Huckleberry that he will be the fool when the leg of the nomadic Oghuz Turks is free. He may metaphorically referring to a possible Turkish invasion of the Mississippi River that will happen in a later chapter."

ひらがな is original japanese alphabets so words like 余り while they do have kanji, it was in ひらがな to begin with.

You know, if we had two threads, he wouldn't be able to post every minute in both of them. We just have to disguise the second one as something else. How about a raw manga general?

>>
Is anybody still around that is not the generalfag anon or did everybody bailed an hour or so ago from this ludacris?

I want to ask you guys, what is the clinical term of what this anon is suffering from? What does it called in English at least?

He seems like he can function like a normal human being; being able to articulate himself and expresses his opinions, a rather smart human being I'd say.

Yet he has this unwavering persistence to consistently doing things that he thinks can destroy djt.

The degree of consistency of which he is doing it is alarming to me, if not sounds real crazy.

How do you guys call a person like this in English?
He's not "technically" mentally crazy right? As an ESL that lives in a non-welfare country, I've seen crazy people on the streets in a regular basis. This guy doesn't talk like a crazy person, but sure does act like one.

Again the degree of consistency is chilling to me.

It's been 18 days since I upped new cards from 20 to 40, and my daily reps have gone from an average of 300 a day to 700. I actually just hit the last new kanji in the deck (2887, with 50-some suspended) so from now on every word I encounter will have kanji I already know. I hope this makes the review count stop increasing, if I start getting hundreds more reviews than I already have I'm going to cry.

Is this proper? Like, do people really say "sometime in the next week", "sometime in the next month" etc. as we would in English?

I'm asking because google is mainly bringing up Japanese to English sites when I search for this. So it makes me feel it might not be a natural thing to say.
>>
>>139024878
Last question (maybe). What is the proper term for his in-denial attitude over evidence (or overwhelming evidence).

I read his first /qa/ thread and he talked repeatedly about nobody adressing his points in the Opening Post. Which most people did, but just laced with insults too.

So I parsed his opening post and answered his points one by one by one.

As we all know, he made a second thread and persistently said that "nobody" addressed his points about generals in his opening post.

"I" specifically answered it sentence by sentence. Not to mention in this thread alone some people were answering his copy pasted questions.

The second thing that stand out to me about him, first being his consistency, is his persistent denial in the face of answers or opposite opinions, direct answers even.

How can somebody be this in denial / blind, and how do English language (psychology) call that specific symptom?

So, DJT, about consonants...

Are G and J as unstable as R?

I mean, when pronouncing R, japanese will range from "Lemon" to "Remon", depending on their speech style.

I would like to know if that's the case with some weakened-ass Gs and Js I've encountered around, and what are the rules, if any.

>Examples:
会議 かいぎ / kaigi
非常に ひじょうに / hijouni
http://vocaroo.com/i/s1enpJcV53Zz

In this audio I've pronounced the first two with a "muddy" accent and the last two with the default sound we learn.

The "kaigi" one will almost becomes "kaiñi", and the "hijouni" makes a "zh" sound, instead of the expected "dj".

How are these decisions made?
I understand that if you speak in a laidback way the sound tends to come out like that, but I'm not sure if that's entirely it.

I was a gradeschooler but, the things I learnt ...??

So at that time, I cant remember the reason, but I learnt you can ask the store manager to provide a birthday cake.

It might have been a store (mcdonalds) ajoined to a supermarket, but I my birthday was during the summer break so i thought I'd try it once.

It was alright i guess flavorwise? It was about twice the size of the local baker's cake however.

A white faced ronald mcdonald came and did magic and balloons, paper hats etc, now that i think about it he did quite a bit.

DON'T GIVE UP! DON'T GIVE IN! KEEP READING! BELIEVE IN YOURSELF!

Learning Japanese is a very long journey and you need to fuel your mind with the right reasons and the right fuel to sustain that journey! Everyone has a lot of energy at the start and they're very focused on their reasons for learning Japanese, but after you've been going for months then the wear and tear of the grind starts to hit you, you get caught away in the daily challenges, the ups and downs, and you focus on the speed bumps of your daily studies and you lose sight of your reasons! You have to stay focused on the reasons for why you're learning Japanese!

There was once a kid who couldn't speak even though everyone else in his class was speaking. When he was 7 then everyone was reading and talking, but he couldn't read. The teacher brought his parents in and told them that he had to go because he was slowing down the rest of the class. They didn't know what to do with him, so they put him to work and he got fired from every single job that he tried. All that he knows up until 21 years old is failure. He's never tasted success. Then one day he found his reason, he found out what he wanted, and he gave it everything he had! Day in and day out! He tried something over 1,000 times before he was finally successful!

Most people never try something more than 10 times before they throw in the towel, but he just kept trying because this was something that he cared about! As he kept pushing forward then it was all of these failures that kept bringing him closer to success! AND THEN FINALLY THE LIGHT BULB LIT! It was Thomas Edison!

He had been a failure his entire life, but every time that he hit rock bottom then he just got back up and took another step forward! We all fall down in the journey of learning Japanese, but it's our perseverance that determines if we will be successful!

REMEMBER WHAT YOU WANT IN JAPANESE AND GO AFTER IT LIKE YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT!

Started with kana ten days ago. I think I'm done with realkana, if I ever fail one kana it's because I slip a finger with the keyboard. It was nice to be able to get most of the TGS, like names from characters and such.

And now, I feel like I'm lost. not because I can't see a way to go forward, but there are too many open roads.

After dealing with kana Genki I feels like it jumps straight intto a vocabulary pool (and without explaining the thing with ha/wa beforehand). I'd rather choose something that teaches me first how to build clauses, the rules of its smaller elements... a syntactic approach.

Tae Kim seems to be what I'm looking for, but then, his Basic grammar looks like is a bunch of random-placed rules to me. There is still a knowledge gap I feel the urge to fill: How Japanese words start to work.

A lot of Why...? questions pop in my head while I try to start with grammar or Kanji. "Why is this written with katakana? It doesn't look like a loan word...", "Why should I use the chinese reading of this kanji? Where are the rules about which reading I need to use or learn better?" , "Is there a kanji for every japanese word, like, is there a kanji for itadakimasu (I know, I know, I need to learn how to type in kana asap)?"

Somebody help please? What do you do once you get over with hiragana and katakana?

Chinese speaker here. I have a pretty good level of fluency in Mandarin and can read a lot of characters (kanji), so I decided it's time to put that aside for a while and pick up Japanese. After all, I spend multiple hours a day listening to cute cartoon girls speaking it and have even picked some up organically over the years, so it would be stupid not to explore it.

Anyway, starting next week I'm going to be reading and regularly posting/posting in these threads. Would you guys consider it inappropriate if I picked up a tripcode for DJT only? I'm a firm believer in the idea that you pick up language best when your conversations with others are realistic and direct, so it would be kind of weird if I was posting in Japanese but didn't have an identifiable name on my posts.

Just wondering, how does one restart anki after stopping for two years? I got bored with it and just started reading but time has gotten tight this semester and I like to read only when I have large chunks of time to do it. As a result, I know a lot more vocab now than when I stopped anki. How do I restart core 10k without having to spend forever going through really easy stuff? I know I could keep upping the new card limit until I get to new words but that just sounds really tedious.

I need your opinion DJT.
I started Anki two weeks ago with the default template:
Front
>Definition
>Example sentence with kanji [furigana]

Back
>The answer in Kanji [furigana]
>Definition
>Example sentence
>Audio

Vocab wise it's working nice so far. Kanji however, is a bit cloudy since it's not the main focus of the card. But then I saw this >>114227447 and now I'm deciding to try this template. There's a big difference because with this, there are no example sentences and definitions on the front card as a crutch. Instead, it'll make me produce the word it's looking for, plus the definition.

My question is this:
At two weeks in (40 new words/day, 200 max review), if you were in my position, would you just start over so you can go through some of the cards you missed prior to switching? Or would you just continue with the reviews, since those cards you missed will eventually show up again?

So, I think I might be retarded or something, but I'm very confused about Kanji. I meant to make some progress through Genki last night, but I just ended up reading through explanations of how they work for several hours.

From what I understand, they serve to either:
- represent a collection of sounds, taken from the original Chinese pronunciation and unrelated to their original meaning (but sometimes containing an ideographic indicator of whatever the meaning is) - this is used when kanji are in compound words

- represent a concept, against taken from Chinese, but read as the Japanese word for whatever that meaning is - this is used when kanji are isolated

Can someone help clear this up?

Need your advice, /djt/

I've finished ~4k words from Core, 1.1k kanji from KD and have a decent grasp on grammar from Tae Kim.

Lately, I've been slugging through Amagami on my Vita, which is rather boring, but reasonably easy even at my level, and doesn't require to look up too many things, as virtually all the dialog falls into 'high-schoolers talking about daily life' category, nothing impressive grammar or vocab-wise.

The thing is, on sale a few days agj I've picked up a Vita copy of a White Album 2 bundle, which includes both parts of the VN, and really want to play this masterpiece. Would WA2 be too much for me as of now, considering I don't use a text-hooker 'cause vitard, and should I consider playing it safe and sticking with Amagami until I finish Core and KD, to avoid being overwhelmed and ruining myself an experience?

Do you have past traumas with attention whores and bullies in your school life that you really, really hate some people you consider "attention whores" this much?

The impression I get from your posts and attitude towards imouto and other people you deemed as "attention whores" is pretty strong.

Come on man, chill a little. Lots of people got bullied, get over it. Or get help.
If you actually never got bullied, I apologized for making the assumption, but your hate really resonates in your posts towards "attention whores".

Man, I had been going good the past week but I'm starting to feel stuck. I'm not sure how to balance going forward with more grammar along with learning more kanji.

It's like the grammar learning is harder to grasp since I don't know the kanji that keeps being used in examples, and if I stop and try to level up my kanji vocab I can't read the sentences very well that give examples for the kanji. (and from what I both gather and feel myself, studying the kanji straight up on their own isn't the most helpful)

I wanted to get going with trying the core2/6k deck on anki but I don't feel like I understand enough to bother with it. Or is it normal to feel pretty overwhelmed and truly brute forcing through sentences in 2k is what many have done?

I'm getting frustrated mainly just figuring out how to go about teaching myself than being upset I can't memorize new kanji as fast as I'd like. Perhaps I'm just trying to go too fast anyway, I'm not sure. I do enjoy learning so far, though, and certainly want to keep pushing forward.

Is there a deck out there for taekim that goes past essential grammar?

I think the best resolutions are those you can think of and work on. For instance, if you say "I want to get healthy", you'll soon forget the NYR and not really do anything about it. But if you say, "I want to maintain a schedule of x reps of y exercise a day" then it's something you can focus on and actually work on.

Therefore, for Japanese, a good NYR would be something like "finish a full length VN / LN / novel every month", or "hit x,000 new words added in anki". If it sounds like that's just work, well yeah, that's what it is. I think a lot of people approach NYRs as "wishes" - I wish to be good at Japanese, so my NYR is "i want to be good at Japanese". That's why people fail, because they're wishing not working.

My NYR is to finish Legend of Galactic Heroes.

Hello all,

When applying the discount code "wanikani heart textfugu" on a year subscription on Wanikani, it brings the total down to $50 for a year. However, it also has a category labeled "Good for" with "forever" being the value. What exactly does this indicate? Does it mean that in 1 year, should I decide to renew, that it will again be priced at $50 for a year?

Thanks!

I've been grinding flash cards for about 6 months and occasionally playing eroge, I actually thought I was learning pretty well but today I realized for the first time that I hadn't set my system locale properly and in fact I have only memorized mojibake, not the actual kanji. I didn't notice because all my VNs displayed the same stuff so I assumed it was Japanese.

I am able to play my eroge and VNs this way though and obviously since I went 6 months without noticing it isn't that much of a problem, but do you think I should fix this and start over? Or should I just keep learning mojibake and not worry about it?

Just started using anki and I've been having trouble with the Core 2k6k deck since I think I'm just memorizing the pronunciation and not the actual kanji. Tried using the Kanji Damage deck since it only shows the kanji character however the pronunciation/explanation/ordering is weird/annoying. Should I just tough it out with the Core 2k6k or is there a better option out there?

Also, would It make more sense to memorize the radicals first?

>reading Flyable Heart
>time/number of lines required on average to reach my daily quota of new words is slowly going up
I-I can do this.

Though I imagine I'll eventually reach a point by the end of this or the next moege where my reading speed has increased enough that most of my downtime is spent hovering over and saving new words rather than figuring out grammar I'm not used to, meaning I'll always hit the daily amount very quickly, and learning new words just makes me read faster, meaning the problem never gets better. Is that what people refer to as intermediate hell?

What pace should I do Tae Kim with ?

I've no frame of reference how fast/slow I should do that.

I've got the kana down and I'm doing core6k 20vocabs/day and additional to that a kanjideck with the joyo kanji with a speed of 10/day.

I'm a full time college student so I'm squeezing anki reps in every chance I get.

Would 1 lesson Tae Kim/day be fine ?

I also found a JapanesePod101 torrent with the first 50 Podcast lessons + Premium Material + 20 "Volumes" of what I guess is additional lessons provided to premium members.
Should I give that a whirl too, or just stick with finishing TaeKim, start reading easy shit and start with Genki ?

I'm just hoping my brain doesnt melt learning japanese, I already speak 3 languages fluenty (4 if we count latin, but I've forgotten most of it and havent used it much since HS)

What are some good Japanese PC games in general? I played that Okkotos game a lot and now that I think of it I want to play more games like that. Or heck, games in general. A triple A Japanese game sounds nice right about now, but all I can think of are shit like Dark Souls that I've already thrashed in English. I don't even know how to play Dark Souls in Japanese anyway. Troubling, troubling. I guess PPSSPP would be pretty wise but damnit why not PC games? That aren't eroge, been there done that.

I think that I'm going to give handwriting another go, except with anki instead of reading this time.

Particularly, with words that are either being completely stubborn in regards to never getting pushed further than a month or so into the future, as well as those that I forget on account of their kanji alone.

I'll limit it to just five or so words per day, though. I know from the period where I sunk ridiculous amounts of time into writing while reading how quickly the returns start diminishing. Filling 10+ pages in one day is completely useless for anything other than handwriting practice. I also don't need handwriting practice in order to recognize the vast majority of them.

I have a few questions about Epwing2Anki, since I can\t seem to get rikaisama's import thing to work.

Can it generate cards with audio attached?

What kind of "structure" is default on the created cards? I mean, is everthing on the same side of the card? Can I set it so that it only shows the expression and not the reading or the meaning until I press the "show answer" button? Like the structure of the cards in the core2k.

Say I use the a textfile that I fill with words by using rikaisama. I fill it with words which I then use with Epwing2Anki to import into anki. If I just continue using filling up the same textfile with new words, so that every time I import it contains words that have already been imported, will I get duplicates in my deck? Should I clear the textfile every time I import?

Thi is seriously getting redicous I don't know what the fuck to do, I've been studying for two years reading for over 6 monthsn and I still can't fucking get it down and I know yea yea i cant learn jap fine whatever i can but atleast tell me how the fuck do i even supposted to get better at this shit ive been crying all fucking day because even when i do my reps i get the card right then i feel like i didn't get it reset it do it again and keep doing this for almost every card i dont feel is perfect same shit when i read ikeep rereading sentances over and over again and end up spending over 3 hours on something that takes a native reader 5 minutes i dont understand what i can even do to get out of this slump
>>
For those who use the DoJG deck(s), do you read every sentence while studying? Or do you just make sure you understand the sentence on the front and then only read the ones on the back if you're not too sure of your grasp on the concept? I've been reading every sentence, but at my reading speed that results in 1-2 minutes per card and that feels too slow.
>>
How do I avoid cheating with my anki reps while reading? As you know, Anki schedules your cards in a way that they come up just at the ideal time, when you're supposed to see them for optimal memorization. Which means that if you see those words sooner than that, that defeats the purpose of the entire algorithm.

I'm trying to go out of my way to make sure that I don't try to recall the readings of words I read in VNs, only try to remember what they mean so I can understand the sentence, and recently even had to turn off the character voices in the game because they kept reminding me of readings at inappropriate times.

Can you even do anything with trying to avoid recalling the meaning of words while reading? Maybe once you get a bit more practice so that you can just "glide" over entire words, understanding complete phases as a whole this stops being such a problem? Does this get easier once my reading speed gets better?

I don't understand, your questions are answered in the Tae Kim guide, pretty early on too, if not in the introduction part then in the Kanji section.

Just grab the Core2k/6k deck and go as fast as you can take. Then just blast through Tae Kim inbetween, remember you just need to get the general idea for Tae Kim, there won't be a test so you don't need to remember every tiny thing, just get the main ideas in your head and try reading (with a lot of help ofc) and you'll solidify the concepts with real world examples.

p.s. Ignore people that say you took too long on kana. You kinda did, but it seems to me like you know them 110% now rather than knowing them 70-80% and carying on anyway.

Ima bit comfused when it comes to mining on anki

So i see the word and then add it to anki and try memorising from there?

I guess im just usedto the core format where i see a word ive nver seen before but its not too hard and i try to memorise it. The wordsi mine can be kinda random so its kinda tricky trying to mrmorise them when thry show up.

Though at the moment playing all these games instead of texthooking VNs is leading to way less mined words.

How much reading did you do before you got to the point that it wasn't exhausting to read (with a text hooker) for more than a few hours?

I can't remember the last time I had to stop reading and reference grammar and vocab is easy because of the texthooker, but there's that important step of taking all the grammar and the vocab and forming a coherent meaning in my head. Even though I know the rules well enough that I don't have to reference them, it can get exhausting to thoroughly read something after a few hours. I can't wait until I get to the part where the sentences come together in your mind without needing to put forth much conscious effort and your main concern becomes looking at the definitions for vocab, but how much reading do you have to do to get there? Progress feels painfully slow lately, probably because I'm not actually learning anything new as far as grammar and it's just reinforcing rules that I already know.

I'm kind of torn here. On one hand, "diplomatic relations" and "national highway" will almost never appear in porn doujins. On the other hand, I know it's going to be somewhere, so skipping it wouldn't be for the best.

What do?

What's the purpose of the Readers that come in this Reader torrent if none of them give any explanations or vocab definitions? I can look it up myself, but I thought the whole purpose of Readers was to combine a story with a list of vocab and grammar explanations?

Does Core6k turn to shit after the 2k mark or is this just a rough spot? Since 2,000 or around there, I've been getting nothing but business words like expenditure and branch office. My retention is going to shit, probably because I'm a NEET so I almost never see these words in English.

Help. I've been on danbooru for ~12 hours over the last 2 days. I can't stop. I find an artist I like, then while looking at their pictures I see a tag I like, then while looking I find another artist, then another tag, then another tag, then another artist. I've saved over 1000 pictures. I can't stop. Why can't I feel like this about Japanese? Is this how being on amphetamines feels? I just want to finish all the tabs I have open right now, but every time I clear one I open 3-5 more.

The business words do end but it takes a while. Just bury the cards away if you don't need them.

I used to learn jap here, don't really anymore and don't really learn jap anymore, until recently.

I've run into trouble, with well reading its hard me to hold info I read in a sentence well.

Like if its a long sentence I might forget what was mentioned at the beginning.

Any tips

I suck at typing jap yet can read most stuff I come across, if you wanna type, type.

Just try not to be too creative when typing otherwise you might make mistakes, follow structure and grammar particles well

The only problem with this thread are the autistic regulars like yourself who are pissed off that they haven't been able to spend hours mindlessly shitposting memes and arguing over inane bullshit.

Compare this thread the any thread in the past few months. It is more on topic than ever. You are the real problem, which this thread highlighted.
