>tfw suck at these questions
What level is it anyway? And what's the best way to tackle them? Do you read the entire sentence skipping over the blank part or do you read the answers first?

I just pulled it from N1 practise questions. I don't really have a method but I guess I read up to the blank and see if there's anything obvious to rule out, and then read the rest for more context.

>>146673167
What are the answers?

>>146673343

I don't understand it at all. N1 is above me but still.

>>146672894
I knew what the answer to the first question would be by the time I got to the blank, before even looking at what the answers themselves more.

Then for the second one I had to do process of elimination

>>146673618
What do the sentences mean?

>>>/jp/15778817

Holy shit, EOP deal with a whole lot of crazy shit. Just fucking learn Japanese.

how do you start reading?
I mean, I understand that I have to mine words that I dont understand, but what happens if I dont understand the particles in a sentence but I still understand the general meaning of the sentence? Do I just ignore it and continue?

>体がなんかおかしくて元に戻れなくなっちゃう！

Does the "なっちゃう" apply to both terms in the sentence in these cases? I.e. does that sentence mean "my body is feeling strange, it's not gonna go back to how it was!" or "my body is gonna become strange and not go back to how it was!"?

>>146675040
Google it or look it up in DoJG to see how it works and how it's used to improve your understanding of it

Should I read stuff with grammar I mostly understand (~80%) with occasional new grammar points and a lot of new words or something harder where sometimes I don't get like 40% of what's being said?

>>146675115
Your first interpretation is correct. 戻れなく is in the continuative form, so なる is directly attached to it. I'm pretty sure you would have to make it おかしくなって to make the second one correct.

>>146675377
>I'm pretty sure you would have to make it おかしくなって
So every time you have a sentences with multiple adjectives and you want them all to be -くなって you have to add -くなって onto each one, you can't just do -くて for all except the last?

How inefficient.

Any recommendations for audio options for learning/practicing? I've got an 18 hour drive coming up. Nothing in the resource bin as far as I can tell.

>>146675040
Just like everything else, it depends how much new stuff you are coming across.

If you are N1 level and come across something you don't know, you should look it up. If you are a beginner, you don't need to look up everything as long as you are confident in your interpretation of the general meaning.

>>146675448
Depends what you are trying to say. Read more.

The gayest thing in Japanese is needing context for sure. In English you can look at a sentence and you get a definite meaning out of it, but in Japanese... it's all so vague and every word has multiple meanings so unless you know the context some things you look at will always look like gibberish.

No, the rules of grammar don't change based on feels. There should be one way to interpret it in all cases where it's the same structure.

>>146675877
So does harder material outweigh more reading?

>>146676124
I'd say so yeah, unless it's really hard, you have to find the sweet spot where it's above your level, but not so above that you literally cannot understand anything

>>146676103
It isn't that common though and it's relegated to mostly retarded sentences nobody would use anyway.

>>146676124
No. Don't listen to people who tell you to read things that are super hard for you.

What you want is something that is somewhat hard for you. If you are coming across more words a day than you can go through in anki, and are still coming across new grammar points, then you are improving quickly. If, as you say, you only understand 80% of grammar in easy stuff, then even easy stuff is plenty difficult for you

how true is this

>djt is also useless if you really want to learn japanese and aren't just memeing do,

>genki1 + kanji look and learn->genki2(continue kanji look and learn if you haven't finished)->Chukyu wo Manabou

Why would your reading time change? Encountering 10 hard concepts in 1 hour is obviously better than 1 hard concept in 1 hour.

>>146676285
Read the guide in the OP. It's true that the thread itself isn't too useful but following the guide is way better than following advice of random stupid people on the internet

>>146676285
>kanji look and learn

According to JCAT, I'm in between N2 and N3, and nobody cares about N3 on your resume.

They generally care about you having useful skills and education. You'll need N1 for translation jobs, I guess.

You can't expect people to correct you. The benefits of talking to people are
-Sometimes they will give you the answer indirectly, due to continuing to speak about the same topic. Or, if you are looking for a word, they may offer suggestions.

-Just the act of trying to think of a way to say something makes it easier to remember the proper way to say it when you see the proper way in your chinese cartoons

I tried for like a week and nearly died out of boredom.

I have a question; i have been studying since the beginning of the year, and at first all i was doing was studying kanji up to the point where i new 500 but i realized that that learning kanji wasnt necessarily help me learn the language any better, i needed to study vocab and grammar. So i downloaded kims guide and anki but i have ended up just studying the vocab in kims guide because i can apply that to his example sentences. Finally heres my question; Am i learning enough? I cant really tell if im making alot of progress or not much. Like i said, i know alot of kanji but my grammar is my biggest obstacle and practicing it is hardest i think. When ever i speak japanese with people i feel like i have to think about what i have to say and then in the end even if i say it right they usually just　日本語が上手ね？I feel like they are the worst ones to teach japanese

>>146682659
Reddit pasta again?

>>146682659
the only thing that will actually teach you the language is consuming copious amounts of it. the easiest way to do that properly is reading. in order to power through reading things, you need a baseline of grammar and vocabulary. that's what tae kim and anki are for.

>>146682659
>日本語が上手ね
Yeah, this happens a lot with people of other nationalities too. Normies are too preoccupied with being polite and whatnot to ever actually give you any solid advice. You also have to take into account the fact that random people you talk to will most likely not be language teachers and probably have no idea how to correct you either. You can tell this much just from reading comments from native English speakers on the Internet. Ew.

>>146683037

>>146683257
I've been thinking about you while masturbating

ドン、ドンドン、ドン...。

>>146683257
In my experience those are rarely helpful. I took a course for several months a couple years back and we barely got past extremely simple grammar and phrases. Going through most of tae kim is pretty essential before you start reading, since that helps you primarily with vocabulary, whereas I get the feeling that watching gook toons is more useful for getting used to the flow of the language. As anon mentioned before, it's all about exposure. I learned a lot of vocab from just doing that before ever doing anki.

I'm unsure about the first line. I'm guessing it's something like:
"B has noticed what A has B lacks..."
"I'm certain that A noticed that now in this battle."

Is this correct? It looks kinda weird, and my reasoning is:
>Aに感じて
Felt/noticed in regards to A

What B is lacking...

Guys, please be honest with me. Is RTK a meme?

>>146699613
kanji study is a meme

>>146699613

お前の顔だけですよ

>>146699729
So in other words, the answer is yea? OK, thanks.

>>146699613
Read the guide.

>>146699613
It depends how easily you memorize kanji through mnemonics compared to just learning them through vocab.

Suppose you can allocate an hour a day to anki, and could handle 25 new vocab cards a day in that time. If you did RTK instead and could only handle 25 RTK cards a day or fewer, then it's totally not worth it. But if you find the mnemonics make it easy and you could do 50 kanji in the same amount of time, then it's worth it. Just pretend learning a kanji by keyword is about half as useful as is learning a word containing that kanji, and use that to calculate time.

Also, if you think you'll need to actually handwrite (at a japanese college or something) and are planning to actually practice handwriting consistently to maintain it, then just do RTK.

>>146699982
yeah but you're forgetting to mention that rtk doesn't teach you vocab, so even if you can do twice as many cards it's still not as efficient as core

>>146700073
You can't actually believe that there isn't a point X at which knowing all the Jouyou kanji by keyword is worth more than knowing X words.

>>146699613
Radicals and Core is the best way. Trust me.

>>146699613
You can achieve at least half of what rtk does just by memorizing all the radicals, and then you won't have a head full of spurious "keywords" and gay mnemonics.
I would say don't even think about it unless you plan to do a lot of handwriting, since the main advantage of kanji study is that you will never get the order and position of radicals wrong.

>>146699613
do something like rtk when you actually need more vocab and can otherwise already wipe your own ass in japanese

>>146700479
What did he mean by this?

>>146678873
When I got my job, they hardly knew what the JLPT was and they weren't really sure if the N1 was a big deal or not. I was told my ability was totally judged during the interview (also, I was given a translation test for both JP => EN and EN => JP)

This was at a large multinational company and I was applying for my current job in Tokyo. DESU, only the foreign people even vaguely knew about it. The Japanese people really don't know anything about gaijin language certifications, which makes sense.

If you don't need mnemonics for words, why do you need mnemonics for kanji?

Fuck man, the grammar in dialogue is giving me a headache.

It's twice as hard to figure out.

>>146700654
because it crams your brain faster than living life normally

>>146700654
Because the definition IS the "mnemonic". That's why individual kanji study is a bad idea, the mnemonics and stories are all but useless.

>>146700643
schools tend to know/care more than companies

>>146700654
Mnemonics aren't about necessity but about efficiency. People definitely use mnemonics for words when they are obvious enough like with 逃げる
