>>141619465
Pick up some manga series

After you're done with the first 2 volumes you'll know 80% of the vocab for all future volumes

Works for LNs as well, point is that you should focus on a single author and a single series to learn that vocab-bubble

Don't allow yourself to become demoralised friend

Here's a tip that will perhaps help you

Based on my experiences at least, and I've been doing this for probably 4 years now, every time you start anything new it it always feels like it's way too hard

Everything I've ever picked up and tried to read, I always think "why is this so fucking hard", no matter how easy it may be

The trick is you just have to stick to it, even if it feels like it's way above your level, you stick to it, and then you stick to it some more, and before you realise it you're looking back and laughing at how hard your past self found it

So maybe just try and stick to yotsuba instead of just assuming it's too hard and giving up, and you may see that you're not as bad as you thought

>>141619750

I've been running a kanjidamage kanji deck because I find it a little easier to learn through similar radicals even if the shit they teach you at first is mostly useless garbage, but I've been noticing that even after so long I haven't even made it past half of their "1700" kanji.

I have my new cards at 20 from the default 10, but I noticed these include both read and write cards so technically I'm only doing 10 new kanji per day.

Should I increase my new cards to 30-40? My usual anki session has me review a measly 100 cards per day (read+write so its actually just 50 kanji) and so far I feel comfortable with it

However I've also noticed that learning the kanji Aline isn't being very helpful at actually reading stuff since I don't know any jukugo.

>raw rice is called kome 米, while cooked rice is gohan ご飯

>今日も美味しいお米が炊けたわ

>>141620241
But when does 米 turn into ご飯? Is it possible to define a point in time during cooking when this transformation occurs? Is this even well defined?
If you put the lid on the pot so you can't see what's inside, can we say that the material exists in both the states of 米 and ご飯 until you take off the lid and look inside, kind of like Schrödinger's Cat in quantum mechanics?

>>141620414
When you serve it.

>>141620087
I tend to think learning to produce when you're a beginner is not an especially efficient use of your time and usually just make it harder on you. My advice would be to delete the production card type and only do the recognition cards.

You can increase the amount to any number you're comfortable with really, the main question would be whether you're comfortable with the amount of reviews it'll equate to and whether you can keep up an acceptable retention rate. In any case you can always change the number of cards you're doing if it doesn't feel right.

So if you turn off production cards and do 20-30 new kanji a day or something you'd be able to finish up the 1700 kanji in about 2-3 months.

>However I've also noticed that learning the kanji Aline isn't being very helpful at actually reading stuff since I don't know any jukugo.
Yeah so I think most (?) people here agree that learning kanji by themselves isn't necessarily the best way to go about it unless you have trouble remembering or differentiating the kanji. Learning words straight up will bootstrap you into reading much faster, since knowing the kanji by itself doesn't necessarily allow you to read any word containing it. So if you weren't feeling the kanji deck you could just drop it altogether and do 20-30 vocabulary words a day (using recognition cards). Then you could hit ~2k words in 2-3 months, and be in a good position to consume native material earlier.

>>141620087
>>141620528
Oh, and when it comes to getting yourself burned out, the important thing is just to be aware of whether it's feeling like too much and whether you're starting to skip days. You can do any amount of cards a day you want but it just needs to be an amount that you can do every day without fail.

There just tend to be a lot of people who dive in and commit to a very large number of new cards, and then talk themselves out of doing fewer cards even though they're starting to skip days and their reviews are getting out of hand.

Why is Hanahira so great? Is there a better way to learn Japanese than through cute little girls?

>>141620604

I haven't deleted the production cards because I've somehow convinced myself that manually writing down the kanji will help me identify it easier later on.

I tried doing some vocab but found it super hard and frustrating trying to learn words without knowing the kanji in it, like xxx歳 without knowing that's the kanji for age / years old or 貯金 without knowing that's save up + money = savings. I decided doing kanji first and vocab after I finish but I'm getting very discouraged at how long this is taking while not really seeing any results.

　翼の泊まる空の下　堅牢堅固も過去の栄誉か　終焉迫る城塞都市

　聖なる騎士さえ堂に入り　円蓋の下　神よと祈った
　宮廷道化は楼閣のぼり　蝋の翼で飛ばんと嘯く
　陰に潜んだスラムの王は　武器を鎧って空を睨んだ
　暗き洞棲む妖術使いは　闇を纏って機を待った……

ほら、空ってどこにでも繋がってるよね
どこへ逃げたって、敵はその白い翼でどこまでも追っかけてくるんだ。
だから翼のない彼らは、どこにも繋がってない空を求めていた。
そんな願いが通じて、いま彼らはとてものどかな国でジングルベルを聴いていた―

Here's an important tip for studying Japanese. Get eight hours or more of sleep every night or else you won't be able to study very well. I only got one hour of sleep and I'm paying the price.

Well boys, I'm finally going to be living the dream. 3 week vacation to glorious Nippon in a month and a half. I've been camming like no tomorrow so I can actually say something in Japanese. This is the most motivation I've had in years.

Turns out months of anki decks does not help so much with actually trying to have a conversation.

Daily reminder that every post you read on /a/ is a sentence you could've read in japanese and learned something.

Just stopping by for my once a month hour on 4chan before going back to futaba and 2channel, why aren’t you shitposting in japanese yet /a/?

>>141626063
I'm ESL, so shitposting here is technically language study for me.

>>141626063
This thread is pretty much just a refuge for beginners who all come and go.

is there any reason to stick to limits like 25 or 30 new words per day in anki? Will it hurt me to do an additional 15 or 20 on top of that every once in a while?

>>141626338
Do as many as you want without getting sick of it and burning yourself out.

I hear people say I should be going for something like 3 parts reading to 1 part reps but I don't see how I could do that. I'm currently spending most of my time on reps and importing everything I read with rikaisama. I assume it turns out that way after I've started exhausting basic vocabulary? Or was it a mistake to start mining and reading right off the bat instead of doing 2k or something?

>>141626528

An extra 15 cards on one day is meaningless in the long run, I would just keep it consistent so you have a stable number of reviews each day and spend any extra time reading.

>>141626439
i suggest timeboxing, 2 min intervals or something, it works wonders for concentration.

How do I get better at reading names in kanji?

Friendly reminder to all neets
If you don't work then you are broken. If you have time to be learning Japanese then you have time to work towards your future career. Stop being a nuisance to your parents.

Life caught up with me and most of the kanji I knew drained out of my head in the span of 2-3 months. Now I'm stuck in the middle of an Anki deck that I can't understand. What do?

>>141628944
You can't forget the language in 2-3 months. Keep at it, you should be back at where you was in a few days.

>>141628944
Stop using methods like rote memorization and start reading, stop trying to learn the kanji on their own and start reading.

>>141628985
Is Yotsuba a good place to start? I heard someone from here talking about how he knew the kanji used in the manga, but still didn't know how to connect them to make sense.

>>141628079
>>141627956
write a short script to invert the mined deck such that the most recent is on the top

go easy on mining -- consider how frequently this will be used first, and frequently add new cards (twice weekly) to keep the relevance of the cards high (you just saw it a few days ago!)

>>141629048
that's because he didn't learn japanese, he learned kanji

see >>141619163

>>141629048
Yotsuba& and similar manga are the best place to start. There is a word list for the first volume which will (hopefully) help you when you inevitably get confused by a colloquialism or unknown grammar construct. Make sure you've read or at least skimmed an entire grammar guide/book, reference it frequently. Don't make the mistake of getting caught in the timewasting trap of grinding contextless vocabulary, and don't get caught in the meme of learning kanji on their own, because that's almost completely useless information to have hence that person's experience with Yotsubato you talk about. Tae Kim discusses this on his blog in more depth.

I plan on learning a new column every day adding the hiragana and words to my anki deck and sticking with it until about 95% confidence with words written in hiragana then moving on to katakana and repeat then kanji using the deck from the guide.

Is this going to fast or slow? and would it be more efficent to learn kanji while I'm learning hiragana/katakana or would it get confusing?

Go at your own pace. What works for you, works for you. However, I think you can crank out kana in two days. Just flash card that shit for a few hours until those symbols are comitted to muscle memory.
But again, what works for you works for you.

>>141628604
Yeah, you're definitely not wrong. I think grinding anki is a good way to build a base of vocab, but it definitely won't teach me how to actually use the language.

I've been using pimsleur and it's actually been really useful to get me running on how to comprehend and speak Japanese. I'm kind of surprised I've never heard it mentioned around here before.

Let's solve this mystery once and for all.
Do you think you could learn Japanese from watching anime?

I think I can actually do it.

>>141631712
I forgot to say I was planning to start reading Yotsuba when I was finished with the kana would it be beneficial to start now or would it just give me a headache?

>>141631750
Yeah I could probably grind out the kana really fast but what about words or do they come with learning kanji?

I finished pimsleur forever ago - it's decent if you have the free time, but you'll get angry once you realize how little you know.

DJT has nothing to recommend except listening to seiyuu radio shows for listening practice once you finish it though, since most people don't care about speaking. It's frustrating how few oral communication practice resources there are for the language past the basics.

You may think that this is a joke but anything that's spoken japanese is basically equally good as long as the rate of speech and grammar level is high enough. Guess what? This includes some anime.

>>141633382
There should be plenty of ways to find a language learning chat partner over the internet, though. And those are the best practice resource, since oral communication more or less requires you to talk to another person. If there's no one on the other side of the conversation then you're just screwing around.

>>141633665
You're totally right - it's just that going the self-taught route means you miss a lot of the fundamental basics; even if my vocabulary level is high, I rather be a NEET and shadow everyday conversational sentences to build up the confidence first. I don't think it's wrong to point out that those resources are lacking, compared to all the rest for learning Japanese available.

>>141633594
Listening practice is just recognition, it's the active, productive oral communication part I'm talking about.

Besides, while anime might be "compelling content" for some, it's basically a placebo for the timesink involved.

>Listening practice is just recognition, it's the active, productive oral communication part I'm talking about.

You'd be deluded to think there isn't a problem there.

>>141633732
for like 80% of your media consumption it legitimately does not matter what you're consuming as long as it's not literally meant for toddlers

all that's necessary is causing your brain to generate the necessary neural connections for information to be transmitted from japanese material subconsciously instead of by consciously wrangling it

unless you plan on reading classical japanese or legal documents you actually have to try really hard to fuck up and pick material that will not teach you everything you need to know

now there is a 20% of the time when you do have to be legitimately pushing your boundaries but that's time you should either be spending reading japanese-language japanese grammar books or doing flashcards, not consuming medoa

I have friends here in Japan who can speak Japanese well enough to land jobs, yet can't read kana on a menu or at karaoke. I'm the exact opposite, and sound like a drunken autist slurring all my words with my accent while being able to read well enough to do amateur manga translations on the side.

>>141634085
>I have friends here in Japan who can speak Japanese well enough to land jobs, yet can't read kana on a menu or at karaoke.
that's because they're illiterate, it has nothing to do with not knowing the language

>I'm the exact opposite, and sound like a drunken autist slurring all my words with my accent while being able to read well enough to do amateur manga translations on the side.
oh, you're one of those people who overestimate their language ability

you know how there are ESLs that speak in extremely broken english yet go on to translate things from english into their nature language? that's you, but with japanese

you literally just have not acquired enough of the japanese language to speak it fluently

at best you just need to practice putting the sounds out of your mouth, but this is clearly not the case if you think that practicing talking to yourself will help, and ~science~ has proven that speech training won't do any better for you than reading if you need it

>>141634085

this is true

I have a japanese american friend who is literally illiterate but can speak japanese fluently because he was raised in a household that spoke both languages but never bothered with literacy because he never needed it

I don't really think that's an uncommon circumstance either.

>>141634148
J->E is a lot easier than E->J. Do you know how many Chinese there are who can pass N2, yet can't speak a word of Japanese? I live in the part of Tokyo that's obnoxiously foreign, it's all too common.

Similarly, it's why Japanese people suck at speaking - lack of actual practice, while only able to understand the written word.

I'm actually jealous of people who are only illiterate, because (I assume) learning the language is so much simpler when you're just having to attach symbols to the language you already know. I would say basic conversational Japanese ranks higher in importance than N2 reading comprehension.

cool, you live in japan, how about going out and talking to some japanese people? what, do you have social anxiety? hey man, maybe that's the reason you can't speak for shit

>Similarly, it's why Japanese people suck at speaking - lack of actual practice, while only able to understand the written word.
every japanese person who I've seen (note: I didn't say "known personally" there) that was actually bad at speaking has actually not even known english well enough to know that -ing isn't a "present continuous" marker

>I'm actually jealous of people who are only illiterate, because (I assume) learning the language is so much simpler when you're just having to attach symbols to the language you already know.
learning how to read is simpler when you already know the language, wow, you're so profound

it's not like you can read without knowing japanese senpai, you can't enforce false equivalences just because you're dysphoric

>I would say basic conversational Japanese ranks higher in importance than N2 reading comprehension.

basic conversational japanese is a prerequisite to passing the actual N2

>>141634503
>basic conversational japanese is a prerequisite to passing the actual N2
There is no spoken production component of the JLPT.

>>141634416
>I would say basic conversational Japanese ranks higher in importance than N2 reading comprehension.

It just depends what your goals are and where you are?

Yeah obviously if you're in Japan and need Japanese RIGHT NOW then any speaking ability is worth more than any reading ability

But in the long term, especially if you aren't in Japan, having vocab and grammar down is more important since it is the foundation for everything else.

Also, "good enough to do amateur manga translations" means nothing. Anyone with kanjitomo can translate manga. Doing it without mistakes or doing it well is another thing, but just doing it doesn't say much about your level

Really though like, if you read enough japanese to pass N1 without knowing chinese beforehand then you can definitely have basic conversations. You might not be speaking fluently but even if you have never spoken to a japanese person in your life you can probably do better than people who have taken a couple years of classes.

No. It's a different ability that needs specific practice in order to improve it.

Bullshit. Classes usually have a strong focus on speaking and someone speaking for a few years is going to be able to speak better than someone who hasn't spoken at all.

You're fucking delusional, mate.

>>141635624

You're wrong.
It takes practice to get fluent but not to get above the leagues of idiots who speak "conversational" japanese

>>141635624
>No. It's a different ability that needs specific practice in order to improve it.
you got a citation on that? what you're saying basically amounts to the same thing as "you can learn how to drive without knowing how to keep track of moving objects"

sure you might be able to pass a test if you cheat in the right ways but no you haven't actually "learned how to drive"

that's what N2s amount to

>Classes usually have a strong focus on speaking and someone speaking for a few years is going to be able to speak better than someone who hasn't spoken at all.

classes have a strong focus on speaking and it is for this very reason that they fail to spend enough time imparting actual japanese on their students. someone who doesn't know more than half of tae kim of grammar will not be able to hold a conversation until they spend weeks newly learning lots of rules that they never knew before, while someone who can literally already read will need to spend at most a day or two getting to grips with the pace and music of conversation

you're the delusional one who refuses to use their brain

Have you ever taken a language class? Someone who takes private lessons from a tutor for a couple years is going to be great at speaking, sure, but a group class is probably the worst possible setting to put yourself in if you're aiming to learn anything about a language. Even a shut-in who picked up most of his grammar from anime will probably be in a better position than a student whose only experience came primarily from listening to his equally inexperienced peers stumble over textbook sentences.

I'd say that you should learn words with kanji. I just don't see a reason to learn the two separately. That way you get the reading and the word itself.

Depends on whether you've done RTK or not. 20 is the limit for most people who haven't. I've heard it said a lot of times though that there is practically no limit on the amount of new cards you can do if you know the kanji.

>>141637238
Being familiar with the kanji is no doubt helpful but the anon still has to remember both reading and meaning. If they were familiar with the reading or the meanings, only then would it really be fair to say there is practically no limit.

Unless they've worked through RTK2, I guess. That would probably be a huge advantage.

>>141637851
Kanji readings are something you can pick up super easily after learning a couple words and they are best left out of rote memorization.
Knowing the meanings does help in memorizing vocab quite a lot, though, and also definitely helps readings stick way better. I can attest to that.

>>141637851
You get at least one meaning for the kanji from doing RTK. As for RTK2, that book seems pretty pointless to me. It seems like a much better idea to just learn the readings by learning vocab.

You don't seem to be aware there's a million dollar industry set up around eikaiwa's simply because people can't SPEAK just because they can read.

They're two separate skills. Anyone with a background in teaching could tell you this, but you want to convince yourself you know more Japanese than you actually do, so whatever.

I was told I might have luck getting these VN choices translated here. So if anyone can help out that would be great.

I know the first two options here are something along the lines of "Lover" and "Love Slave".

I have no clue about the rest.

>>141638573
DJT is not your personal translation service.

>>141638573
Why are you reading something you don't understand?

>>141638573
Why are you reading a VN you can't read, EOP?

>>141638573
>I know the first two options here are something along the lines of "Lover" and "Love Slave".
Wait, firstly, where did you get that from?

>>141638573
why are you playing bl are you gay

>>141638611
Indeed but it doesn't hurt to ask.

>>141638612
>>141638624
The interface is translated and some of the dialogue and choices are translated but only about 10% and unfortunately machine translators are not compatible with this game. I was interested in these ones so I thought I would ask.

>>141638573
1. no
2. done the front hole
3. done the back hole
4. done both
5. both with another dude
6. secret
7. oh i fucked up

Download a program called KanjiTomo and you should be able to figure that sorta stuff out yourself

>>141638636
Well I am guessing based on other stuff in the game. By that point in the story your maid is either your lover or your love slave.

So when replaying this scene you can choose which she is.

>>141638670
>Indeed but it doesn't hurt to ask.
Yes it does. You have selfishly come here and disrupted our thread.

If you want help learning Japanese, that's another matter.

>>141638721
theres no she your options are do it in the penis or in the bum

>>141638736
hey no ones been posting for the last half hour can you NOT come in here and interrupt our thread with your japanese SHIT please

>>141638692
Thank you.

You should translate VNs, I'm sure the EOP community would welcome your high quality translations.

the different components of language are not black boxes with perfect isolation from eachother

you literally cannot comprehend spoken language without having an acquired grammar and vocabulary

you literally cannot speak until you /surpass/ acquiring the comprehension level necessary to generate what you need to speak

and guess what? it literally happens on its own. when you actually know the language, *the speaking ability is there*. it's literally impossible for a neurotypical person to learn a human language without ending up being able to converse in it at a basic level (read: conversational fluency), even if they never actually practice speaking that language, accent being whatever it ends up being, minutes derusting being if they be.

the fact that you (or the person you're pretending to be) pulled out amateur manga translations speaks wonders about your incorrect assessment of your own skill level, and your blatant misunderstanding of reality only makes it worse. you do not need conversation practice, you need to read more, and frankly, you need to stop pretending your inability to speak doesn't stem from not knowing the language. if you can't speak, you don't know japanese. the goes every single last idiot who "can read" that gets scammed into conversation schools.

>>141638781
ive never been banned dude youre actually a retard *and* you dont know japanese *and* you make nothing but off topic posts what up

>>141638943
youre projecting ブロ and not saying much of anything ブロ its just noise ブロ

try using facts instead of opinions ブロ

>>141639068
if you cannot generate sensible english/japanese, you are not fluent. if you are not fluent, you cannot understand unpredictable text. if you cannot understand unpredictable text, you are not literate. if you are not literate, you cannot actually read in the language, only a predictable subset of it. if someone can use the language in their field of discipline at work, but can't talk to people over lunch, then they don't actually know the language, they know a business/academic jargon subset that is much more predictable.

generating sensible english/japanese is not a result of practicing speaking, it is a direct result of having actually acquired the language. if you have acquired the language, and you cannot speak, then the only possible barriers to speech are vocal incompetence, anxiety, and brain damage. if you do not have vocal incompetence, anxiety, or brain damage, and you cannot speak, then you do not actually know the language. I'm sorry, but this is just how it is. when people think they know a language, but cannot speak it even when they try and they don't have any unique issues preventing them from doing so, *they do not actually know the language*.

Is it bad that if I get a card wrong in anki I'll just pass it anyway as long as it's obvious enough

>>141639082
you wrote that so fucking fast i cant believe youre for real right now i didnt even read your post i just am wowing at the amount of text ill reply in a minute when im able to digest all this 英語

>>141639082
ok now that i read all that diarrhea i just have to ask you do realize its not the words themselves but how you say them that makes spoken japanese what it is a lot of the time right

you cant read and learn how to accentuate parts of speech without talking come the fuck on ブロ

i look forward to the next wall of NONSENSE

very well, objection not found, victory declared

just in case you're curious what my next prewritten response was going to be once you gave the only legitimate objection possible, "I listened to lots of japanese and don't have pitch accent", it's as follows:

>ok cool so you're pretending to know more japanese than you actually do

>oh, you're not? can you prove it, pretty please? there's this super easy piece of japanese I want to read, but as I'm an illiterate who can only speak (lol!) I cannot. please translate it for me, oh fluent reader sama!

set new cards to 0
set daily limit to X
you do them every day - if cards for today < X then add Y new at the end

start with X=100, Y=5 and adjust to your attention span
after a while load is constant, new ones appear only when needed
mind you - you won't score any speed records this way, but it wont feel like a chore either

Can DJT explain me why the "die if one is killed" thing happens in Japanese?

I think I understand grammar well enough to understand the explanation.

Is is different concepts of disappearing/ceasing to exist? Or is it a complete mistake on translation?

>>141641676
Why don't you post the Japanese line instead

>>141641676
I figured the Gurren one at least was a "even if someone's dead the memory of them lives on" kind of thing

Idk though

>>141641676
aren't most of those lines about immortal or incredibly hard to kill characters

>>141641764
it was, that was the whole story

>>141641764
He died? Thanks for the spoilers, I was about to watch it.

>>141641676
No, it's retarded translations made by people with no understanding of the language taking things literally. What should be a very simple statement like "I couldn't kill him even if I tried" or "Even with wounds that would kill any normal man, he won't die" becomes gibberish like "He wouldn't die if I killed him".

The whole "people die if they are killed" line is literally just Shirou explaining common fucking sense when confronted with magical bullshit. People should stay dead, you shouldn't be able to get up after having half your head blown off, basic concepts intrinsic to life.

Hey /a/, I have something to ask. So atm I'm learning intermediate Japanese but it seems I've encountered some problems. One of them is reading. Sometimes I have trouble parsing/analyzing the sentence structure and have to re-read many times, thus consumes more time. For example today it took me >10 mins to read two pages of japanese text in the book 日本語上級読解 (ACL Press) (not sure the text should be called 中文 or 長文) and still couldn't fully understand every sentence. I haven't read much reading textbooks but I think I can't take N2 test as I am now.
Second is vocab. I've reached 5k words in core deck and 1k in mined deck but this is taking longer and longer to finish everyday, as words get harder and I have to look up J-J dic often. I want to fully understand every word I learn, but this is just taking too much time.
any advice, /a/?

>>141641676
It's a set phrase which is incorrectly translated, possibly on purpose sometimes for its meme value.

>>141642364
stop focusing on textbooks & anki and just read fun material

Because I don't have them.

But I've searched for a similar line in LOGH, where Poplan says:

Ivan Konev no yarou nanka... [korosaretemo shiranai yatsu da] to omo... I can't keep up, it's spoken pretty quickly, but I guess the part in brackets is enough to figure it out.

イヴァンコネヴのやろう何か、「殺されても知らないやつだ」と思。。。

I would record the audio, but my audio board can't be used as a recording device, even with updated drivers. If anyone has episode 74, check around 13:20 for it.

>>141642397
Oh, it's not shiranai, it's shinanai, as >>141641967 said.
I'll look into this stock phrase.

>>141642364
If you're at 6k words, you're nowhere near N2 level.

Read and practice more. You need to improve your reading speed, vocab, and just get more reading experience. You're on the right track, and probably it would be a good time to start reading something outside textbooks, like a VN or something if you haven't started yet.
