Can I learn enough japanese to read manga and LNs in 6 months, if I study 2-3 hours a day?

>>150011571
You could learn enough Japanese by tomorrow, just depends how long you want to spend looking up stuff.

>>150011513
That clip is adorable but ten hours may kill my heart.

Does anyone have a list of all the vocab used in the A Dictionary of Japanese Grammar volumes?

I think there was one done for the basic book, but you'd have to look in the archives because it isn't in the CoR.
In lieu of that if you're desperate you could copy/paste a text dump from the grammar reference site and use a text analyser to see which kanji and stuff are used.

Do you never write, talk to yourself, attempt to read entire sentences even if you don't understand some characters and force your brain to assume which words might be there? In a month I feel happy I have actually accomplished so much, just by doing that.

On a weaker note, I somehow am having way more trouble memorizing Katakana than Hiragana. I can probably write the characters individually but I often forget them while reading, makes no sense.

Kind of a vague question but is anyone else troubled by the overwhelming urge to go back and reread something while they are in the middle of reading something else? Lately I've been trying to read more manga but even if I'm enjoying the series, there is this compulsion in the back of my mind to go back and sink into one of my favourite two or three series to read.
Reading Japanese in and of itself is like a form of escapism but even still within that there is a deeper urge to retreat back into the manga I loved in English but wanted to read in Japanese; returning to the womb in a way. It's like the longer those other favourites are left without diving back into, it gets worse and worse, almost like a feeling of not being able to take the edge off without. Like a drug?

Guess the question is, how the fuck do you deal with being an emotional manchild while trying to balance out new comprehensive input? Surely there are other anons here who have gone through a similar position. How did you progress through your comfort slump?

I think the katakana are just going to be harder to remember since they are less common. Fully embracing the kana takes a lot of reading after you've memorized them.

日本語の学び方とブログすぎるのでバンを受けた。。。話題関係無しのように。。。しかしこのスレにいつもたくさん日本語でブログしてぼけがある、もしかしたら俺も日本語で書きたらいいですか？ばかばかし。俺の日本語は未だ駄目だから。けどさ、いい練習の機会と思いますね。。。どうだ、分かるか？
あのアヴァタルくそと俺を人違いしないで下さい。

>>150015098
I mean from an etymological perspective.
My first thought looking at 未開 is they are referring to their own opening to the West and using that episode as their highest landmark into development.
Meanwhile there are dozens of open countries which are still primitive or underdeveloped.

When remembering Kanji, what should I focus on, the onyomi or kunyomi?

>>150015294

多い書いたけど次際は何も言った。

>>150015431
The word it is used in. Learn through vocabulary.
If you want to do individual kanji study, do it without readings, just general meanings/abstractions.

>>150015523
I'm very roundabout, no matter the language. Bet if I kept things shorter than 148 characters no one would bat an eye at it.

>>150015294

>>150015549
I'm currently using 2k/6k core deck and KD deck, am I on the right track?

>>150015431
Doesn't matter. Personally I just learned one word for every kanji I learned. Much better and easier than remembering its sound alone.

>>150015606
No. Drop KD entirely. Do core until you have about 1k words and switch to a mining deck. Then start reading. A lot.

>>150015646
I see, I've felt KD wasn't really helping me much compared to core. Thanks.

>>150015606
>KD
I am against fart jokes, so I would go with RTK either way.
But I also don't like using mnemonics, so I go with Core alone.

I have been studying for 11 months doing only Core and it's been pretty productive, I already know 7000 words and can remember a good chunk of it when I need them.
My friend has been studying for 6 months with only RTK and he knows close do 0 words.

He has an advantage, though - he doesn't mistake similar kanjis like I do all the time.
It took me some real effort to separate stuff like 結婚緑読続紙経軽始 and I still get them wrong every now and then.

Besides, while I have learned 1600 kanji in 11 months, he has learned all Jouyou kanji (~2100) in 6.

So yeah, different approaches, different results. None of us can write this shit from memory, though, even though we write everything that shows up while reviewing.

If people aren't using rikai-kun for chrome/firefox, you're not helping yourself.

>>150016126
Rikai is a crutch that people will naturally abuse to not need to learn the language. Instead of using electronic aids to help your reading you should memorise the kanji/words.

うまそうに is an adverb here
トロつかせる is the verb
やがって is added to the verb to express emotion

You should be able to figure out the rest on your own

>>150016392
Yeah, I have it installed here since forever, but I never use it, and I've been learning quite a bit on my own.
Meanwhile, I have a friend who is able to read anything in Japanese because of years using Rikai, though he has close-to-none kanji recognition and can only read material that he can copypaste for Rikai to do its trick.

After trying to chat with him and getting all-hiragana responses, I gave up talking to him and became very wary of the side-effects of such aids.

>>150015646
>Do core until you have about 1k words and switch to a mining deck. Then start reading. A lot.
Or, use your brain a little and keep using the Core deck alongside reading, because you'll be "mining" the vast majority of the next few thousand words out of the majority of the unknown words you come across because they are so fucking common.
Stop with this generic 'muh read moar' advice. It's lazy and all you are doing is blindly parroting what others have blindly parroted before, without even bothering to thing twice about it, just to make yourself feel good upon the soapbox.
No one needs you shitty generic advice; that's what the Guide is for.

>>150016392
Hmm do I mark the word and right click -> search in google or turn on rikai and mouse over... Decisions, decisions. Things would be so hard if I could use telepathy to insert the meaning into my head like this poster suggests.

>>150012371
A bit late but I think you should read whatever makes you happy, and like other anon said, you function better doing so. It seems there's some sort of always ongoing competitive spirit around DJT about "making it", and so it seems people end up being more worried about efficiently going on the path to "mastering Japanese" rather than thinking about their own desires first. Of course sometimes the two match, and in that case it's perfect.

Just try to push yourself to read new things regularly though.

You have to be aware of the different cases for the readings
For the onyomi you want to have an idea of what characters mean roughly so when you see them in a compound you have a starting point, like what >>150015549 said . E.G 地下 is Ground+Below/under. On yomi readings are often quite literal so knowing the component parts is very useful.

There are exceptions to the rule of course

So I've been reading this Hentai raw and english at the same time and the raw says おじいいいい while some chick gets banged and the TL is "My ass", but I thought おじい is just a slang for old man. Who is in the wrong here?

Pretty much every problem with misusing tools etc is "your main goal is no longer learning Japanese"

People misuse texthookers because they stop caring about learning Japanese and only care about understanding things. People get obsessed with RTK or anki because they start caring more about kanji or stats than Japanese.

As long as your main goal is actually improving your Japanese, it's hard to go too wrong.

Which is sad, because doing good on the UEJ will actually earn you a free japanese bachelor's degree. We're talking 4 years of japanese school for free just for mastering japanese

>>150023159
I'd suggest delaying it until after you've read a while and have a decent vocab. I read through it after finishing Yotsuba and 1.5 VNs, and by that point, almost everything in the first two volumes was easy and not necessary to review. I made custom sentence cards for the remaining sentences that I failed to understand before checking the answer. It definitely helped my grammar a lot, although of course it isn't necessary and you can get the same result by reading, but if you're impatient to improve your grammar it's nice.

Memorizing kana is so easy that in the time you have spent figuring out the best way to do it and looking through all these gay apps you could have simply grabbed a piece of paper and copied the kana charts. Start with hiragana, write each one 50 times, then test yourself with one of the billions of kana test sites.

It should only take you a matter of hours to fully memorize them forever. JUST FUCKING DO IT

Free education is literally god-tier when it comes to going to Japan

A Japanese student visa guarantees you 5 years+3 months in Japan. You literally have 1 year 3 months after you graduate to find a job or get married.

Here's the kicker - If you win the grant you also get free rent. Yes, the grant includes rent money. You'll be living for free. In Japan. For 5 years. And nobody will kick you out as long as you continue to get good grades

I tried to do it when I was still beginner or so and it didn't do any good to me, especially since past the Beginner book (1st book out of the three) examples get harder and if you can't read shit you'll just rely on furigana or whatever that is which is just a waste of time.

Grammar-wise you just need Tae Kim at first.

You actually have a choice to which EJU you're taking if you're aiming for the grant money

Check it

http://www.jasso.go.jp/en/study_j/scholarships/scholarship/shoureihi/yoyakuseido/yoyakuseido_06.html

Applicants must take any of the following eight EJU subject test combinations.

a.Japanese as a Foreign Language only
b.Japanese as a Foreign Language, and Mathematics (Course 1 or 2)
c.Japanese as a Foreign Language, Mathematics (Course 1 or 2), and Science
d.Japanese as a Foreign Language, Mathematics (Course 1 or 2), and Japan & the World
e.Japanese as a Foreign Language and Science
f.Japanese as a Foreign Language and Japan & the World
g.Mathematics (Course 1 or 2) and Science
h.Mathematics (Course 1 or 2) and Japan & the World

Those taking the English version of the Mathematics (Course 1 or 2), Science, or Japan & the World tests are also eligible to apply.

Note 1: Those enrolling in a graduate school is not eligible to participate in this reservation program.
Note 2: If a particular subject test combination is taken by a very small number of examinees, there may be cases when no scholarship candidates will be selected from that group.
Note 3: Applicants will be considered for selection on the basis of the subjects they indicated on their EJU application form, regardless of whether they are not taking certain subject tests.

For example I just mined 骨（こつ） but there's also 骨（ほね）, which is also fairly popular.
I already have ほね in the core deck but I just want to know for future situations.
Should I just mine it manually or is there a way to scroll through meanings?

It's okay anon, you can still get private grants like the EJU one. There's no age limit on the EJU grant or virtually any third-party grant.

Trust me anon, life is better when you have to fight for it versus it being given to you.

Start with something simple first, to make sure you have the proficiency required. I'd recommend chopsticks, they're inexpensive and an easy way to find out if you have the capacity to learn Japanese.

After practicing with them daily for a few years, you'll be ready to start with the language.

>>150026242

You only have yourself to blame.

>>150027664
"to be cummed inside"
I'm pretty sure.

>>150027653

I guess, but I've come across mundane words that use katakana for some reason.

>>150027693

Ok thanks for the help anon that's good to know

Does stroke order really matter or does anyone not give a fuck as long as you can write the kanji/kana and its legible?

>>150027760
If you don't know stroke order, you can't write anything legibly.

>>150027760
I write most of them the way they're supposed to be, but others I just find it easier to do my own way. I feel like you definitely shouldn't do that, though.

>>150027760
Not knowing stroke orders fucks up not only your handwriting, but also your ability to recognize handwriting and use kanji dictionaries.

>>150027669
How the fuck are you supposed to decipher that even if you know the stroke order?

That site is a clone copy of the site in the op, which is the original renovation of the first djt site.
Obviously you are the one that hosted the clone site and the one who made the other copy of this thread and spammed it out of spite to try and keep it alive, because no one else cares.
What do you care about: Japanese or your ego? Are you the guy who made an update of the guide in the op and went on damage control when it got criticism? Wouldn't surprise me.

The site in the OP is an archive, and the creator of the site in the OP literally deleted it and replaced it with an archive inviting other people to modify and host the site instead of him. Note the words in red "archive" in the link in the OP. Yeah.

>>150028860
Yes

Why are gaijins so baka?

>>150028742
What reason could you possibly have for trying to force your unmaintained site into the OP other than your own ego? You have some psychological need to control it, even if that means letting the site languish with errors and no updates. If you you really need that for some reason, I don't particularly care, but you should reinstall the feedback page and keep up with suggestions.

>>150028957
Why would you give this person permission to keep charge of the site? If it's the same person, they've literally deleted it on us several times in a row already, solely out of spite for people they argued with in the thread.

>>150032937
shits not a game rice paper walls cant stop a wave of god

>>150032954
the wave is 3 meters+ offshore bro

>>150032937
What the fuck are you still doing here?
Run away

>>150032954
It's only the 押し波

>>150032954
tsunamis aren't like normal waves that just splash in and roll away immediately. It's more like the ocean rising 50cm for several minutes

>>150032954
90cm in some regions.

To be fair I also feel like everyone is overreacting at the moment due to what happened a few years ago and nothing will happen but that's perhaps because I'm clueless about the subject.

ummmm lol no its not an overreaction the seas are gonna raise 10 feet soon and the coast and immediate area is gonna get trashed in the redzone

80cm連発観測

>>150033531
no its just me dude but that post was so detached from reality that was my response irl i ltierally said that out loud

>>150033652
Isn't it normal to say all your posts out loud though?

>they dont know why the cooling stopped
THEY'RE FUCKED

People talking about tiny waves need to realize Japanese people are among the tiniest people on earth. Even a 10cm wave could break everyone's ankles in a neighborhood.

Today I did Anki for 37 minutes and then I read a visual novel for 1 hour and 32 minutes.

/a/ help

I just revealed my power level

I was practicing my japanese in my notebook before going to the doctors. Went to the doctors and apparantly while i was gone a different doctor called and my brother picked up the phone

I came home and he wrote the doctor's info on my notebook -- right underneath my hiragana practice sheets

awkward

>>150034422
It'll only be awkward if you act as if you don't own it. ️️

>>150034422

Don't waste your time practicing how to write them.

>>150034422
what powerlevel

>>150034422
>hiragana practice sheets
>power level

>>150034525
learning japanese ->watches hentai-> failure as a human being

come on anon, make an effort

>>150034422
It's a fucking language, I don't give a shit. I practice my Japanese on a little notebook often, outside or inside. Some people look and move on with their lives. Some ask me if I know Chinese (personal favorite), some happen to know it's Japanese, ask about it, and also move on with their lives.

>>150034516
are you one of those "You can't learn Japanese" anons?

how should i instead be wasting my time? grinding kanji and nothing else?

>>150034664
No, why would you do lone kanji study? Do your mining deck and read a lot.

>>150034664
no one knows japanese let alone how to teach it everything posted is just memes and blowing hot air even this post
