So say my card shows 四 and I immediately think "oh it's yon" but then it says "Shi", and vice verca do I count it as a 'good' or a 'easy'?

>>149875484
if you had "shi" on your mind, you can press whatever you think is appropriate. if you did not have "shi" on your mind, you have to press "again".

>>149875484
Good.

>>149875484
you press del because you already know what 4 is and don't need anki to remind you

>>149875521
In what context would yon be the appropriate alternative?

>>149875624
When the card expects "yon"

But then I wouldn't be getting any delicious Japanese practice

The only reason I'm watching it is because it has subs on Kitsunekko

til japanese is not only influenced by loanwords from tons of different countries, but it's entire modern grammar system is based off of the English and Dutch grammar system, i.e. 代名詞 is literally a translation from the dutch word for pronoun, "Voornaamwoord". How does it feel to be learning frankenstein language rofl.

#2 or #4. Probably #2.

Girls like #1 look nice and all until you realize they act that way for everyone else as well. #3 is dead last, I'm not sure to what kind of chara is that and to what kind of person they're trying to pander but it's certainly not for me.

>>149877559
care to explain why you think they did?
代名詞 literally means "substitute noun"
it's just a way to categorize words
japanese grammar itself is clearly nothing like english or dutch grammar
the ideas behind grammatical terms might be similar on the surface, but that's a given
for the record languages will have terms for parts of speech/tenses/verb conjugations that only exist in other languages, seeing as those terms are necessary if you want to talk about the grammar of those other languages

they get down to a fundamental level where you can see exactly how the grammar of the language works

hell just read up on japanese grammar if you're actually into knowing about it
look up particles and inflections then try and tell me those are english or dutch
if the grammar isn't alike how can the "grammar systems" be alike

You can study faster on your own than in a course 99% of the time. That said, having your grade as a consideration can help motivate you or make you hate the language. You might even get excited at the idea of impressing teachers and cute girl classmates with your superior knowledge and helping them with their own studies.

Do it, if you're feeling it.

>>149878299
Sorry I guess my wording wasn't great. What I tried to say is that although they didn't completely undermine they're indigenous grammar tradition, it was greatly influenced towards the end of the Tokugawa period when westerners forced relations. The then would-be grammar scholars of Japan tried identifying in the Japanese language newly found European grammar. The previous teachings methods of past grammar scholars Fujitani and Gimon were tossed aside in favor for the new foreign way of looking at things, and Japanese verged down a different path.

>>149879066
Do you have an objective? Are you going to learn a language for no reason? And yes, you are shitting up the thread. Nobody likes blogs.

That's mostly why I was going to take it. I know I just wouldn't be able to learn efficiently if I tried doing it on my own along with uni work.

Anons is there a correct way to translate Japanese? Sometimes I come across sentences that seem a bit excessive in the wording it uses. Take for example:

ヨーコとジョンがニューヨークの家の前で車を降りて歩いてたとき。。。

Is the correct translation for this "When Yoko and John were walking to their New York home after leaving the car..." ?

I feel like the 前 is kind of excessive because in the rest of the sentence it's said that they're walking by foot to their house, meaning that they're in front/right before it. What's the translation of "車を降りて歩いてたとき" if I'm not right?

>>149879884
While Yoko and John were walking along after getting out of their car in front of their house.

>>149879884
You have some amount of creative control in order to make it not sound retarded. You're free to exercise it, as long as you try to keep to the meaning.

>>149879884
Inst the 前で in this case just.. in front of the house?

>>149880065
see >>149880059
It just sounds like a mouthful when I want to translate every part. He excluded New York, which I believe is vital to the sentence.

>>149880121
Yeah but you wouldn't even need 前で because they're walking to their house, implying they're already in front of it. Unless it was to emphasize it?

>>149879593
I guess you could view it that way, but you have to take into account that at the time Japan had been under complete isolated lockdown and no one but a select few had any information on the outside world. This deeply affected the Japanese language because the people trying to take aspects of English and incorporate them into Japanese had very little idea as how to do so, which in turn lead to little criticism in their methods and they liberally applied grammar definitions from English into their structurally completely different language.

>>149879884
>Is the correct translation for this "When Yoko and John were walking to their New York home after leaving the car..." ?
Nope

>>149879884
Take out the 前 and suddenly they've driven a car into their house.

>is there a correct way to translate Japanese?
You don't sound like you should be translating, is this a homework assignment?

>>149880221
What's the whole original?

>>149879884
Not excessive.

>>149880221
>you wouldn't even need 前で
No.
家で　家の前で Both are correct.

>>149880249
It is homework but I just want a better understanding of how I should be translating sentences. Some are straightforward, but ones like this one really trip me up.

"In front of their house while getting out of the car" right?

However, on the 8th of December of that year, while John and Yoko were walking after exiting their vehicle in front of their New York home, he was shot with a gun.

Every time I see a new kanji in TK I look it up on Jisho, memorize the most common meaning and write it out 20 times. So my study is going kind of slowly and I don't feel like I'm getting much out of the extra time I put in. What do you think anons, should I keep on like I am or just focus on the grammar and worry about kanji later?

>僕自身が思う正当な評価を今まで受けてきたからこそその現状があるわけ
How would one go about translating this?
"It's because I've given you my honest evaluation of you until now that we're in this situation"?
The preceding line being the other speaker's "I bet you'll think I'm getting cocky if I take your words to heart and submit these to a contest or something"

>>149882374
In the 20 years that I've been coming to DJT I've learned one thing. Intermediates or advanced anons will tell you that the best way to learn as a beginner is all the current methods that are working for them in their current stage.

It's different as a beginner. There is nothing wrong with going a little slower at the beginning and might even be more beneficial.
But no, I definitely think actually writing it out is going to be a waste of time after a while.

I just found out what 一日 means after roughly a year. It seems all the secrets of this world are now within my grasp.

>What do you think anons, should I keep on like I am
Yes.
Momentum and the related progression are like the relatively massive gains a beginner can make with strength training. Consider what you are doing now with Japanese similar to getting your CNS adapted to progressive overload. While it may not seem like much at this moment and everything seems slow, it's not. It's gold and only beginners can really take advantage of that growth period. You have a routine and your study is progressing. Ask questions later.

Whatever you do, don't stop now. Stopping is the death of momentum. Keep going till the road crashes into the ocean and you hit the water so fucking hard you start skimming.

That's the nature of languages. Even J-J dictionaries have a huge amount of "overlap" because a language grows from the inside out as opposed to being created by engineers to be efficient.

Am I wasting my time if i write down the words while doing anki? I don´t even care about my writing skills.

Does it help to memorize kanji better or something?

>>149889087
>Am I wasting my time if i write down the words while doing anki?
yes
>Does it help to memorize kanji better or something?
yes

>>149889087
I used to do that for a few months while studying kanji

I can't judge how much it impacted my ability to recognize kanji (since I don't know how it is for those who never did any kanji study), but I can tell you that you'll end up forgetting how to write kanji if you ever stop. If you don't care about your writing skill then you might as well study without writing and catch up later, if or when you end up needing it.

Writing will reinforce your memory of the kanji and words since you'll be spending more time on them, but it's up to you to decide if that time is worth it. It's usually a lot of extra time.

Hello /djt/

This is an idea I had yesterday that might be useful for some people.
The idea is to make cards (paper cards) divided in categories : I chose 'particles' ; grammar points ; and kanji. Now kanji can be anything, a verb, a noun, an adjective... think kanji as a vocab card in the most general scope.
You pick (not looking !) a few cards and try to make a sentence with it.
Picture is me trying several sentences. They can be as long as you want to. I tried doing each time 3 kanji cards, 1 grammar point and 1 particle.

Imo this could be more beneficial to an intermediate level than a beginner like me (as shown by the picture).
Obviously if you're only looking to consume media and japanese culture this might not be an interesting system for you.

This can be a fun game.

Why did you delete this? 好きis a verb, it's just the 連用形 inflection of 好く

>好き is a adjective. 好む is a verb and is similar in meaning but is used differently
Because it's probably more commonly recognized as an adjective

>>149891986
Then it's not a verb is it, it's a verb acting as a noun/adjective

>>149892003
But that's wrong. At worst, you can classify it as an abstract noun.
>>149892015
It's still a verb, just like "liking" is a verb.

>>149892301
With 70% retention you are almost definitely not understanding anything about Urobutchers and Romeos writing nuances. My tip: turn off your text hooker or whatever, and slow down. Read the sentences at a leisurely pace. Let it sink in. Look up words MANUALLY, because they stick better in that case. Reading like this for only 3-4 hours is better than rushing through text for 7.

Will actively watching and listening to an hour of Japanese tv shows every day make my listening improve at a decent level supposing I can't understand a whole lot of natural spoken Japanese at the moment?

>>149892124
If you're reading as much as a you say your are, you might be doing more than 50 a day. If so, you're fine, you'll get it.

>>149892381
You're a meme person

>>149892382
Non of that really applies to me, I've never used a text hooker before, I always just use Jisho and Goo, and I already read leisurely too, it takes me fucking forever to read though shit sometimes

>>149892451
I don't really see why then. Unless you're lying to yourself about any of this which would only really hurt you. The only other explanation is brain damage, but I'm sure it's just you being lazy and a passive rather than an active reader.

>>149891410
The point is to challenge yourself and connect ideas.
Picking particles and words doesn't mean using only those at all. You can add anything you want.

>>149892124
Maybe diversify what you consume? Try reading small articles and papers, watching Japanese shows like varieties or dramas and other things you may not have considered. Pay attention to language that keeps popping up or compels you, not fretting over complete comprehension. Immerse yourself with more content and context and less memorization grinding.

If nothing else, changing what you're consuming now and your approach may jump start something.

Just solved it with JDownloader (and found a Portable version at that), but had to enter a couple of adfly links, not before figuring out how to bypass this shitty anti-adblocker system so I don't give jewtubers any money for monetizing other's softwares.

My head hurts.

>>149893830
Fuck you, those jews wait till the file is 90% download to warn me I need an account (or to install their shit), then I log in, redownload from scratch and it warns me again the file is very big and it would be better to install the program. I click "No, Thanks", have to reset the download and BAM, there goes my bandwidth quota. Somehow they think 300mb is larger than 1GB, too, and that's why I need the jew app.
