This isn't a shitpost.

I've been 'learning' japanese for an entire year now. In fact, today marks the 1st anniversary since I started.
I tried almost everything. I read Tae Kim at first. After I finished, I tried learning extra vocabulary. Then I tried learning the radicals. When I found out it wasn't working, I attempted core2k. Lack of motivation caused me to quit core2k after a few weeks. Then I tried listening to Japanese songs. I read Yotsubato!, I tried watching dramas, anime, fucking everything but Genki because you guys told me to stay away from it.

Yesterday I started Genki. I'm on lesson 3 at the moment and I have learned more Japanese vocabulary in a single day than I have been trying to learn in an entire year. You can't make this shit up. /djt/ told me not to try Genki, and when I tried it as a last-ditch effort it was helpful. Genki is actually extremely useful.

This is not a shitpost. Do not make the same mistakes I did. Don't follow set instructions. Do your own thing. You don't have to use Anki if you don't want to. You don't have to try the Core decks to learn Japanese. There are other easier ways out there.

>>145393920
Genki is in the CoR for a reason. Of course it's good.

Whatever works for you.

>>145394096
Happens a lot to me too, but it's mostly words I haven't got to learn yet.

Mining speed is just way faster than learning speed.
Be glad, by the time anki will through it at you you'll know it even faster.

>>145394112
囲む
Must be one of my long term mature cards that I forget often.

>>145394239
How the hell could you forget 囲む? That's like forgetting 営む, 勤しむ, 憚る or 秀でる.

>>145394294
I immediately recognized the first two, but haven't even encountered the last 3 yet..

>>145394096
That happens to me all the time, well not where I get a duplicate error, but where I know I've seen it in anki before but had completely forgotten about

Even words that I remember encountering in core I forget because I don't encounter them in so long while reading, happened the other day with 郵便局

>>145394356
You're telling me you didn't encounter 憚る and 秀でる yet? That's like not encountering 悔いる, 戦く or 嘯く yet.

>>145393920
How have you spent the past year were you trying to read Yotsuba that entire time I'm confused

>>145394432

It sure reads like a shitpost.

You can use Genki. You can ignore Anki. You're just going to take 5 times as long to get to your goal.

Anki is the easiest, least time consuming method out there for vocab. If you don't take advantage of it, you're just retarded.

Today I did Anki for 31 minutes and then I read a visual novel for 1 hour and 11 minutes.

Shit guys I can't get it back, R and T just don't react even though Anki is open and the settings are as always in rikaisama.

There was one of firefox' "some random script stopped working, what now" prompts and I clicked "continue" and ticked the "dont ask again" box, I think that's where I fucked up. Where can I un-dont ask again it? It's not under Firefox' applications settings or at least I can't find Rikaisama there.

At least a year of fucking around doing not much with grammar guides and kanji and shit

Around a year of constant reading and mining

I'm still pretty fucking bad, I'm terrible at remembering vocabulary, although I do have over 10k mined vocab in anki, but my retention is balls, my grasp of grammar isn't as solid as I'd like, and my listening comprehension and production are both pretty much beginner level

Was there a fully OCRd version of DOJG or did you have to write all of it out yourself? Either way this would be really useful if we can make additions and fixes to some parts of it, especially the many wrongly translated example sentences.

Looks good from what I can tell

>>145395871
Not him but a few months ago I tried to OCR all three volumes with ABBYY FineReader, the first volume yielded decent results but the intermediate volume analysis was complete shit (furigana fucks the OCR).

Adobe Acrobat yielded much better results when you only OCR'd the notes one by one though so that's a viable alternative.

Hope so. Nice to see others enjoying the work of that zany little jellyfish.
I managed to get a few anons interested in learning Japanese on another image board in a thread by providing on the spot translations for some ゆるゆり stuff, they asked me how I learned that and I pointed them to the Guide.
Cute girls, man, they motivate even the most broken anons.

Does anybody have YesJapan / Japanese From Zero scans or videos?

I've seen the authors videos on Youtube, and they are pretty good, but I'm a stingy bastard.

>>145397149
Motherfuckers, hear me out.
There are two different methods of learning: Flashcards and textbooks. Let's say flashcards is Anki and textbooks is Genki to simplify things.

If you use Anki, you have to do the reps every day if you don't want to screw yourself over. There's nothing fun about Anki. There's nothing entertaining about Anki. All you're doing is review the same words or phrases, over and over, every day. It's completely normal to get well over 200 reviews a day. It's tedious and time-consuming and frankly quite robotic. It doesn't feel natural to me.

With textbooks (in this case, Genki), you can work at your own pace. You're not on a time limit. You're in no rush. Depending on the textbook (or website), you can have fun. It feels fluid, like you can keep studying without wanting to kill yourself. I know Genki is an incredibly basic Japanese textbook, but you can move on to other, more advanced books/websites later on. You don't have to take the Core decks. You might be learning vocab from it, but you're not having fun. There's nothing fun about Anki. When you don't have fun, you don't feel motivated. It feels like you're doing it for nothing.

Explaining this is difficult, but I hope this made sense. That's why I made more progress with fucking Genki.

>>145395398
Holy shit its working again. I reinstallied the import addon, rikaisama, reset all the resetable rikai settings in about:config or what it was and restarted my pc and its back

Fuck I'm relieved.

>>145398146
You're retarded.

>>145398146
>muh flash cards is robotism meme
Fuck off.

>>145398103
If you haven't, I'd suggest trying ひだまりスケッチ after you finish ゆるゆり. The vocab is a little bit of a step up well worth it. That or 苺ましまろ. The latter is perhaps easier. Those are my three favourite manga, so obvious biases present.

>>145398146
>There's nothing fun about Anki
For you. I'm having plenty of fun trying to imitate the sentence audio.

If you don't agree with me, you could try and prove me wrong other than saying >le meme retarded.

>>145398354
Thanks, YRYR is a bit too easy for me but it's fun.
I already imported the Mardock Scramble trilogy so I'm gonna read it first.

>>145398146
I agree with you that anki is pretty much the least fun thing in the universe, but it still seems like you're doing something wrong, I mean you can't even really compare anki and genki, genki isn't supposed to be for learning vocab, it's a grammar textbook

>>145398146
If you want to get far, you need to, to some extent, get "fun" out of learning quickly

It's fun to finish an hour of anki and see that you know 30 new words and can understand 30 new sentences. It's much more fun than studying inefficiently and trying to stare at a vocab list for an hour coming out remembering 20 words, but then forgetting half of what you learned yesterday.

That said, pure vocab flashcards are pretty much the least fun thing you can do in anki. If you find them not fun, you should have tried things like cloze deletion cards. You could even add all the sentences you see in genki to anki and make cards based off of those.

>>145398146
I've never read Genki but I know you're going to have to get your vocab somehow, and really the only way to do that is to pound them into your head. Of course it's not going to be fun.
If you've ever studied another language in high school, it isn't any different there. You use a textbook but there still was no avoiding doing vocab, except instead of using Anki you would probably do it the oldschool way.

>>145398146
Both of those are just training wheels for the only real method of learning Japanese, reading/listening to native content.

How do I reset my decks as I never started them?

I want to do them from the start. I have left them so long.

>>145398910
I think you mean writing/speaking japanese

>too many anki cards in the morning
>still do them all at once over a couple hours
>get bored in the evening so I add another 10 vocab
>even more cards the next morning

>>145398452
Cheer. Actually downloaded 1~5 the other week but haven't look at it. It's sitting in a folder with a bunch of other unsorted, downloaded manga. At the moment I've been reading random volumes of 苺ましまろ and ゆるゆり over and over. Night meds make me drowsy and reading the aforementioned has made for some incredibly comfy pre-sleep relaxation.

The まんがタイム publications (きらら、KR、etc.) have serialised a whole bunch of really enjoyable series.

You need to write a lot and speak a lot to get better at writing and speaking. Producing "incorrect" Japanese is a red herring because you're supposed to make mistakes. It's part of learning. Reading and listening to a lot of content dramatically helps you become familiar with the language as it is used by natives, but writing and speaking are skills on their own. If you want to get better at speaking, you have to speak and speak a lot. The same for writing.

2 years, all independent. First year was with a book called "日本語入門". The title and a kana table in the back was literally all the actual japanese text inside. Everything else was romaji. It wasn't terrible, but I had to re-learn all the words the moment the thought finally clicked.

Since then I've done Anki, Genki, read any sort of text I could get my hands on, and tried talking to the three people I've met who are also trying to learn japanese. I'm not great. I don't get many chances to practice other than writing stuff down, so my phrasing can be a bit awkward. I've been trying (read: failing) to read a book called "日本人の知らない日本語". It's funny, but I'm also having a pretty hard time with it...

Hello /djt/. Used to be a regular here over a year ago, how are things going around here? You guys happy with the New Game anime? It's pretty cute so far.

What are the current trends? Are people still fighting over RTK? Or perhaps now it's all for KLC? What's /djt/'s opinion on KLC by the way? I don't need any of these things anymore so I don't really feel like wasting time on it but I'm still curious how it holds up compared to other resources as I've heard good things about it (did the RTKfag route myself).

I have 3-4 years of Japanese under my belt by the way so if beginners are worried or uncertain about things I'll gladly give you my two cents if that can help.

If you want to get better at speaking, you have to speak and speak a lot. The same for writing.

It is important to practice them, but only if you have enough experience to have a feel for what is correct. You can't write a natural sentence when you don't even know the words that would be appropriate there.

Speaking is one thing because it's less about correctness and more about immediacy, but in terms of writing I would not trust anyone who cannot read Japanese fluently to be able to write anything decent of reasonable length.

Yeah, most people will be awed simply by you knowing Japanese. Being able to teach it might seem like a miraculous ability. Some people I know from my previous courses are now making money that way too.

>>145400212
Nobody really argues about RTK anymore. Wanikani vs Anki is the new hotness.

>>145400652
Thank you anon.

>>145400677
I thought you had to be a native of whatever language you're teaching for anyone to take you seriously.

>>145400212
I'm having a hard time getting kanji down using anki alone. Do you recommend RTK?

>>145400784
That's hard to do with Japanese, especially in less attractive countries for Japanese speakers.

>>145400784
My Japanese teacher was an American missionary. Also one of the best teachers I've ever had, not just for language.

>>145398146
You in fact do not have to do Anki every day. You will end up with a lot of due cards but you don't have to do them all at once. Some spaced retrieval practice is better than none. If you feel like you're a slave to Anki then just do however much you feel like, when you feel like it.

>>145400542
>just spoonfeeding and hand-holding people who incapable of learning on their own.
What exactly do you have them do? Specifically i'm asking how do you try and convince them you aren't wasting their time and money

>>145400591
but komari can probably use more kanji than average djt user

>>145401074
Why would you need to convince them? Most people taking classes actually believe in classes

>>145400784
>I thought you had to be a native of whatever language you're teaching for anyone to take you seriously.
Not always. Confidence is key here. A lot of people will relate to you more knowing you, as a people from the West, managed to learn Japanese all by yourself and so on. A Japanese person might know the language better than I do but they haven't had to learn it from scratch from an English speaker perspective. Also I'm ESL so actually I speak 3 languages which tend to impress.

>>145400708
That's pretty shit.

>>145400817
Yes I would totally recommend RTK (although once again you should look into KLC yourself). If you'd like I can expand on the routine you could do in order to be successful.

>>145401074
I don't teach in a class, I do private lessons through internet. I hand hold them through everything, teach them Japanese based on my own personal knowledge and experience as best as I can, give them all the resources needed as they go on, etc. Yes I even help them with Hiragana, etc. As said up there I provide coaching, comfort and security, it's a lot based on trust. Most people learning Japanese are always in doubt, they never know if what they're doing is right or correct, etc, so that I can provide.

There's no way I could provide these kinds of service to people from /djt/ or even 4chan as a whole though, it's targeted to normalfags or rich weeaboos who wouldn't go past 1 week of self-study.

>>145401692
I can't tell you that, sorry, you'll have to find your own customers if you'd like to do the same.

>>145401805
I charge 15 to 20€.

>>145401830
I am never lying to them about anything, they need my help and I offer them my help. For that I get paid. That's a service, I am not forcing anyone here, this is not what a scam is. Often I've even had customers willing to pay me more for the work I do because how content they were.

>>145401830
That's like saying kids that are too dumb for school are being scammed when they get a mentor. He's not making them waste money if they learn Japanese through it and are unable to otherwise.

I have a friend like that too, been talking with him occasionally for a year now.

He said he finished RTK but anki reviews for it still take away all his study time, so he can barely learn vocab. He also said he doesn't want to read anything now and he'd rather "take it slow" and maybe take uni classes. He also bought DoJG but I'm not sure how he's using it if he doesn't read.

>>145403583
Good idea.

When you watch his video, you'll note that nothing he says doesn't really say any complicated sentences. The impressive thing is how he can just keep speaking and chain things together with ease.

Being in Japan will help you lose that hesitation in speaking, that's the first step towards reaching that guy's level.

It sure helped me.

>>145403668
>One body
No.

>>145403691
Only potentially confusing thing there is だけ. It's not exactly the most obvious usage of it. Normally you probably see だけ as expressing some limit, a small one, but here it expresses an unclear one, limited by the 食べたら - i.e. "as much as I ate, that much I got fatter".

As another anon said Its pretty fun to try your best to get the exact audio down with your own voice.

Thanks for the suggestions. I was attempting to watch Dragonball raw, mostly as an excuse to watch dragonball again and because I figured they made it for kids, but I cant find a version online with audio that doesn't sound like it was recorded on a potato. Also, Goku talks weird.

At first I was just fancying the idea of earning an MS at a Japanese university, but now I'm starting to really consider it because of the low tuition cost. It would only cost $10k there vs. the $50k I would have to pay over the course of 2 years here. How have you been enjoying it?

So I started rewatching Hyouka and between segments, they give you a word and some line of text. The first episode is

>清明
And the text is
>万物発して清浄明潔なれば、此芽は何の草としれる也

Is this some form of classic japanese poetry I'm unaware of or what?

What does こい mean?

It is Final Fantasy 6 not sure what's going on because I just picked a random part.

10 years but haven't been dedicated. I probably only practice an hour a day so a lot of the people here are better at reading and writing than I am. If I could just focus on one language, I wouldn't be so terrible.

I'm none of the anons who replied to you.

Do you mean the RTK routine? Or the routine I'd do when I was still "beginner"? I can give good tips regarding RTK but other than that we have advanced learners within this thread who can give the same kind of advice for the rest, I'm no wizard.

I did exactly the opposite, maybe you should be mindful of your learning comprehension from now on.

I have no routine anymore per se, I just do some reps in the morning and read whatever I want when I feel like it.

Also, I looked at jisho and the only meaning for 清明 they gave me was "pure and clear", so I got curious if this was some sort of style of poetry in japanese

>>万物発して清浄明潔なれば、此芽は何の草としれる也
This is old Japanese. Let's break it part by part.

>万物発して
The 草木が芽吹きだして from explanation applies. 万物 literally means "everything", but here refers to "every plant". "発して" is "芽吹きだして" here, i.e. sprouts coming out.

清浄明潔 is the name of the relevant time period, ４月４日ごろ - "around 4th of April". Presumably it refers to the old lunar calendar, making it today's start of May.

清明 is explained as 清浄明潔 shortened.

なれば - ば in Old Japanese isn't just conditional, but also simple "when", like -たら can be nowadays. So "when it becomes 清浄明潔".

此 - これ、この + 芽は - "this sprout"
何の草としれる也 - "becomes known what "plant" it is" See 草 there more broadly, nit just simple "grass".

也 - reads なり, means である/です nowadays. しれる is already verb, sticking 也 after it is like today's のだ.

Bonus, contrast なり and たり, both meaning である/です, but たり is used when speaking about people's social standings etc. Consider today's N1 grammar xxxたる者

Pattern matching within text for computer wizards. Link me to the subs (or post an excerpt to pastebin) and I'll do it for you.

>>145410038
So, it's basically a poem using old japanese using the word?

>>145410038
Also I guess I'll explain why the modern Japanese explanation in this picture >>145409413 speaks about nature in general, i.e. all sprouts, but the Old Japanese sentence has 此芽は, limiting it to "this sprout".

Simply, this idea of making judgements about nature at large based on singular observations is common in old Japanese poetry.

The whole thing I'd translate for example as:
"Sprouts come out, in early April , every plant makes itself known."

>>145410170
Yes. 清明 = 清浄明潔 = ４月４日ごろ. And the poem tells you what happens then.

>>145410038
>>145410294
Do you know any good resources to learn how to read old Japanese? This is really interesting.

清明 is stand for 清浄明潔.
I'm Japanese but I didn't know 清浄明潔's meaning.
Normally we don't know.

>>145410038
It's correct. I knew for the first time.
And I won't use never.

They also seem to display a bit big. I used an editor to make them smaller and removed the furigana by making their width and height 0% but when there's multiple lines they're too far apart. I know fuck all about this sort of thing so if any of you have an idea please tell me.
