I was actually born and raised in Puerto Rico. I was born to a single mom. She was a wonderful woman, and she taught me to believe in myself, to work hard, play by the rules. She wanted me to get a good education, and she just told me that the best thing I could do is just study hard.

Reminder that Tae Kim's guide is shit.

>>141391105
What are the alternatives then?

>>141391153
Imabi

>>141391178
Which is even shittier.

>>141391303
How so?

>>141391303
Not him, but it depends what you mean by "shit". Imabi is better than Tae Kim in terms of accuracy and comprehensiveness, but it's too long as a beginner guide really, and the linguistic terminology would probably go over most beginners' heads too.

I am formally requesting that we rename DJT to

Does anyone get the pun at the bottom pannels it's beyond me

>>141392119
I didn't read it because I'm not even going to try understanding Japanese puns right now

But did you watch the anime? The puns were supposed to be lame and/or not really make sense. The real joke is that Yui finds them funny and nobody else does.
It was all stuff like "anshin Angkor Wat" (anshin being 安心)

>How fast do you think you learned without it?
Slow as shit. Did I ever say it was fast?

>Did you ever do Anki before you went with raw material?
Yes, core 10k early on. I dropped it out of boredom halfway.

>Can you give an idea of how much you improved?
I can apparently write japanese now, despite never practicing writing in my life. I mostly just imitate things I remember hearing and mumble it in my head until it sounds just like my animes.

>You said about 5 hours a day, how fast did your ability go up?
see first answer

>So you just "had fun" and didn't look stuff up necessarily?
If you word it like that it sounds faggy but yes, if you have a strong foundation you can figure out a lot of things from context.

>it's all new to just go hardcore.
Maybe I'm still not getting through to you. It's not supposed to be hardcore or revolutionary. You're literally just "doing the thing you learned japanese in order to do." Just try it.

Is importing Persona 5 and playing through it more and more as I get better at kanji a good idea or not?

>>141394018
can you play other games or can you read generally

>>141394080
I'm beginning learning Japanese, started on the grade 1 kanji today during my break at work.

>>141391178
>>141391423
>>141391105
How about this guide?
http://nihongoresources.com/language/grammar.html

>>141394136
play some easy VN you can text hook instead.
a console game will either be a dictionary lookup hell ,or you won't understand anything.

>>141394259
Given the order of presentation, I wouldn't call it a guide. It doesn't start talking about particles until half way through. Might be alright as a look-up resource, but in that case why not just use the DoJG (written by native speakers rather than by a gaijin)?

>>141394018
I don't know. All parts of the game will probably be equally difficult with respect to how many kanji you know, so playing through it "more and more as you get better at kanji" doesn't really make sense. If you get my point. Getting through the second sentence will be as difficult as getting through the first, so you might as well keep on reading. I mean, you will naturally learn more kanji the more you play, but stopping playing until you've learned more of them outside of the game is a wierd way to go about it.

That's not to say that learning through playing is bad in itself, though. I just wanted to clarify this a bit.

>>141391105
It doesn't really matter what you use to learn basic grammar because you should learn just enough to be able to pick pieces of a sentence and then look up what you don't understand. Reading about a bunch of grammar that you're just gonna forget anyway is a complete waste of time.

learning anything that you cant immediately use and apply is a waste of time

So I'm hearing differing opinions regarding Anki and I'm fresh into the core 10k deck(about 1500 words so far). Should I keep chugging along while doing reading on the side like I am now, or just drop Anki and do even more reading?

I don't find it particularly boring since I just have spotify running for the 4~ hours I spend on Anki everyday. I've had worse times grinding shitty JRPGs.

>>141395320
>4 hours
Jesus christ, what is your retention? Did you do those 1500 in less than a month?

>>141395320
Unless someone here is about to drop some scientific studies on the efficacy of vocab memorization vs just reading, I think you're just gonna have to try and see what works best for you.

>>141395362
I'm doing 150~ words a day with 85% retention. I did RTK and make two mnemonics for every word (one for meaning, another for reading), so I don't have a hard time remembering it.

>>141395447
That's crazy. Maybe I should've done RTK.

>>141395447
You're going to get so burnt out with reviews a month or so down the line

>>141395568
Probably. But if that happens, I'll just pause new cards for a bit and only do reviews. I'm assuming by the time I reach that point, I'll be able to have a much better time reading stuff.

>>141395427
hows this: djts been around for how long and nearly all posts (not shit posts) are about methods and what is better than what and not about japanese itself

>>141395703
To me, djt is for bitching about studying Japanese with others after a long day of grinding it. We all share the same grind. I'm just here to relate and chill.

Is there a grammar book that strictly uses romanji only? I want to learn the grammar so I can start reading with VNReader transliterating into romanji, but even Genki starts using kanas, ganas and kanjis, and I don't want to bother with those just yet. Once I become fluent reading with romanji I'll start doing RTK or something.

>>141397156
Don't limit yourself like that. It'll only take a few days at most to learn your kana.

>>141397156
Do RTK right now without romanji you can just read through the meaning of kanjis.

>>141397234
And by learn he means trick yourself into thinking you know it. A very popular technique here.

>>141397234
I tried 5 hiragana a day but gave up after a week, kept mixing them up.

>>141397300
Don't learn kana you don't need it because there are romanji system nihon shiki and hepburn

>>141397273
How do people actually trick themselves into knowing kana? I can understand if they do that for kanji, but not kana.

>>141397300
Don't memorize it by rote. There's plenty of mnemonics you can use. You can probably find guides with funny pictures that look like kana to make it easier to memorize.

>>141397239
Yeah, I tired Remembering the Kana but it was boring as hell and burned me out. I'll just start reading in romanji as soon as possible so I can start having some fun.

>>141397374
he means all the posts about doing thousands of flashcards all the while still having less functional japanese than a newborn infant whos umbilical cord hasnt even been cut yet

>>141397374
>How do people actually trick themselves into knowing
Anki.

>>141397380
Don't use any Japanese scripts (kana, katakana and kanji) in the first year or so of learning. First let your brain familiarize itself with Japanese through romanji I prefer nihon shiki myself but you can use hepburn if you like it.

>>141397496
That's exactly what I want, but I all the textbooks are shit and start flooding you with kanas after a few lessons, it just takes away your willpower to continue.

>>141397547
Don't use textbooks just look out for patterns in romanji sentences or alternatively use kana - romanji sites. There are a lot of good ones just google it.

>>141396790

If you ever have difficulty remembering long kunyomi readings where you don't get much help from the okurigana, try mnemonics! Here are som examples:

For 司る I imagine a tsukasa doll (tsukasa-doru) directing and managing things.
For 寛ぐ I think of the phrase "put your kutsu on the log (rogu), relax, and make yourself at home" (kutsurogu).

Obviously these mnemonics are just temporary; they serve to get the reading into your head and they fade with time as you start to just read the word normally, but they can be very handy when first picking up a word.

>>141397751
The "lol" should've been a telltale sing.

>>141398873
Not a lot of options when you don't want to learn the alphabet dude

>>141398570
I assume you only do this for the words you have trouble with, since it would take forever to do it for every word?

>>141399159
It's not an alphabet, you complete beginner. Alphabets are needed to use the language, but kanas are optional.

>>141399159
Use kana romanji sites no need for manga ways

>>141399159
Why exactly are you so against learning kana? It really doesn't take very long at all and it'll make everything a hell of a lot easier

>>141399181
I do it for every word. It gets easier the more you do it.

>>141399181
Different guy, but I do this for every word. At first, it took awhile, but now it takes 30 seconds at most per word after having done it a lot.

What the fuck, why did my Rikaisama auto import stop working all of a sudden? I haven't even updated anything.

>>141399292

>>141399345

>>141399195
Syllable based systems, aren't exactly alphabets, you're right on that part.

But to say that the kana are optional is terrible advice, and also misleading. "Don't learn how to read Japanese, you don't need it!" makes no sense.

You're going to have to learn the kana eventually anyways, so why not get it over with sooner rather than later instead of using romaji as a crutch? You'll be able to use better resources with the kana actually understandable to you anyways.

Either way, just read the guide.

>>141399554
That's pretty cool, I wish my listening comprehension wasn't so shit so I could watch it and understand more than 10% of what's being said

>>141399659
maybe just watch the shit and turn that 10% into 11%

or just shrug your shoulders and utter a solemn できない

>>141399659
Maybe you should listen to more real material instead of the anime only method?

>>141399181

Original guy here, that's pretty much right. Generally I only do this mnemonic method for kunyomi words if it the okurigana doesn't give you much info, like with the previous examples. If it is something much simpler, like 貯める for a random example, I generally don't have any problem remembering it with bruteforce.

As far as onyomi goes, there is not a need to do an onyomi mnemonic for every kanji thanks to phonetic components. For example, most kanji with 且 in them have an onyomi of そ: 組織, 粗品, 租税, etc. So there is no need to come up with some story since the kanji is giving you the reading anyway, and once you have the onyomi down there is no need for more mnemonics since you will already know the onyomi for future words.

>any mention of anime being shit, or "real Japanese"

It's pretty sad that a mod hasn't bothered/been able to deal with this issue yet. If we can't stop the spamming, at least we can stop the misinformation from being spread.

Also a copy paste repost:
>The mods removing DJT would basically be showing people that they can get their way as long as they kick and scream loudly enough, even if they break several rules and ban evade several times in the process of doing so. What kind of backwards logic are you following where you think doing all of this shit is actually going to achieve what you want? It's doing the exact opposite if anything. It's pretty much securing DJT a spot on the board.

>>141400092
Maybe you guys should just stop being such betas and deal with something on your own for once or does anime not teach those values?

>>141400220

Same guy, I do (somewhat) specific study. What I do is I go through RTK, going through kanji one by one, but I don't learn to write them using the RTK method, I rather use RTK merely as a useful ordering in order to pick up vocab and readings. For each kanji, I search for *yourkanjihere* on jisho and mine 2-3 or more words: 2 jukugo for each common onyomi and the most common kunyomi word with that kanji, if there is one. This way, I get readings, meanings, and vocab all in one, and there is the additional benefit of learning the phonetic components since kanji with similar components are grouped together thanks to RTK's ordering.

if youre not correcting the "misinformation" and are instead just pointing a finger you are just as much in the "wrong" so you better get your ass in a maido ふく and work on your skills with mops and brooms because youve got some work to do dont you ブロ

your post violates global rule 3 because

I'm afraid that this is a special wallpaper that I made myself and would like to keep it that way. The last 30 pixels on the bottom are for my personal use only.

yes i use memerise they teach good thing there and vocab and not placebo

>>141402491
"anime isn't real japanese" is a bigger meme.

Here are some other good ones:
"I'm good at Japanese but even I still have trouble reading katakana"
"I hate it when they don't put the kanji, I would have known it otherwise"
"Why would I ever need to know words like 税金? I'm only learning to read VNs"
"Writing is important"

>>141402573
no, I have enough memes thank you

>>141402653
I didn't say it wasn't real Japanese in that post. Just that it's shitty listening practice. Everything else is pretty much true and this is also a good one "You can learn vocabulary with anki"

Where does Rikaisama keep its config file? Uninstalling it clearly doesn't get rid of it.

>>141403350
It doesn't have a config file. It downloads it each time from google and deletes it immediately after you close Rikaisama.

1 person went out at the request and 1 stayed.

whats the best way to go about learning vocab, do i just have to google shit
or is vocab kanji
i kinda feel dumb for asking

so i am learning for 5 years and i know Kana, Gana, Romanji, Okuraigana should I learn grammar now?

>>141407912
No, the refugee center is causing trouble for the surroundings.

>>141407926
You stupid baka. Don't learn kana and hiragana yet you can use romanjis. Learn vocab by watching anime with romanji subs.

core6k or dictionary lookups.

It would mean that without the で but with it it's kind of a constructed idiom if that makes any sense.

Reference Grammar of Japanese, by Samuel E. Martin.
The volume is in all likelihood the most definitive Japanese grammar reference available in English. It is however by and for professionals involved in linguistics, so unless you have a background in linguistics it will likely go way over your head.

So what I have learned in 13 years kana katana kanji and nihon shiki. Is this good?
