Special /int/ FAQ:
>What's the point of this thread?
For learners of Japanese to come and ask questions and shitpost with other learners. Japanese people learning English can come too I guess.
>Why is it here?
The mods moved us here and won't let us go anywhere else.
>Why not use the pre-existing Japanese thread?
The cultures are completely different.
>Go back to /a/
We'd like to. Bitch to the mods.

>>
>>68535819
There is no reason to waste that much money and time on taking anything under N2. If you study for JLPT right from the start you won't learn as well as if you just learnt regularly. You will get good at taking the test and not Japanese.
If you want something to gauge your skill, you can always take J-CAT, but I think you will learn more if you don't spend your time studying for the JLPT

So with anki I basically never hit Easy, because I never feel like I remember something without thinking yet.

This is how I'm using it:
1 3 6 10 new words
1 3 6 forgotten words

If I can remember the word after a pause I hit Hard.
If I forget, I hit Again. I usually try and think about it for a good 15 seconds or so before hitting again.
I hit Again for a revision word the first few times I see it again just to refresh my memory quickly.

It's been one month and I worry that I'm not remembering most words long term, after 1 week of not seeing them I end up hitting again. Am I fucking up?

I cram on occasion, maybe once per week, should I up my cram study?
>>
>>68541413
Should have just read a grammar guide, you dense cunt. VJG and the DoBJG explain it far better than the posts you quoted.
I swear these threads are only being kept alive by dumb cunts asking basic questions any decent grammar guide or google search answers, with other anons desperate anons basically posting editied copy/pastes from sources they themselves googled in order to generate the illusion of discussion.

can anyone explain to me what 行き means?
my anki deck and jisho say it's "bound for ..."
example: Tokyo bound train

As a non native english speaker I'm not able to make sense of it. Is a "Tokyo bound train" a train headed towards tokyo?
Then what other applications does "bound to(...)" have??
>>
>>68543274
I don't know exactly what to search to find similar experiences and waited a few days to see if someone would post a similar question. I also read the guide in detail to see if there was some kind of anki progression pattern to see if I was on the right track. Sorry man, I knew it'd be a shit question. Anyway, I almost never post so I'll just fuck off back to lurking after this.

>>68543456
I thought more repetitions was better and thought of the time as cumulative, but now that you say it I see how distant reps could be more helpful. I'll change it and see how it goes for a while.

"bound for" in english means its heading towards a certain place with a clear intention or result.
Its mostly used for transportation though, like with buses or trains.

>>68543610
行き means a movement that needs some destination or direction
In addition, 東京行き列車 is probably simplified then 東京行きの列車 is more easy to understand for native Japanese kids.

If you'd bothered to check the thread before lambasting me you'd see I actually read the DoJG (even posted a snippet here and tried to paraphrase it to show comprehension). But I still didn't get it because sources like those use syntactic jargon to describe grammatical functions, which mandate learning an entire lexicon of new terminology to interpret- in which newbies will readily get lost.
Believe it or not, the layman explanations and additional examples people posted were actually extremely helpful.

And I admit I'm remedial. I don't understand why you're so angry about people asking for help.

Question about Tae Kim's guide

i'm at the particles section

2. どうして?(Topic: それ) = (Why is that?)

The answer was

これはどうして?

Couldn't you also write it as

そうしてがこれ?

is there a preferable way to do it? Are the meanings similar or is it just which way I feel like talking?
>>
>>68548123
>そうしてがこれ?
This doesn't make any sense

At this point you should just think of どうして as it's own separate word meaning why, with similar meanings to なんで and なぜ.

そうして or そして cannot be used in place of どうして. そうして is more of something you say to connect phrases, kind of like 'and' or 'after that'.

I'm not sure what the Tae Kim question was but それはどうして? and これはどうして? are both valid things to say.
>>
>>68548381
I typo'd.

What i meant to say was

どうしてがこれ?

Is that a valid statement?

If 何がこれ? is valid, that should be valid too.
>>
>×そうしてがこれ?
>×どうしてがこれ?

近いのは

>それでこれ?
>どうしてこうなった?
>>
>>68548462
>どうしてがこれ?
>何がこれ?
They both don't really make any sense
If you want to say 'why is this' and 'what is this' then it would be これはどうして? and これは何?
I thought about how to explain it but it's kind of difficult for me.
It probably won't help but when you say 何がこれ, it's like you are stating that 何 is これ and I think well obviously これがこれ. Probably not really helpful though. When you say これは何?, it's like "Talking about this object, what is it?"
After reading a while you should pick up on it quickly though, as I can't really explain it
>>
>>68548462
It doesn't make much sense to me.
To say "what" to describe an object or a tangible reality you should use 何 I think。

どうやって、どうして,ect are more like "how", "how come" or "what for".

「どうしてこれをしてるか。」make sense to me but どうしてがこれ seems ... weird .
>>
>>68547890
I can't explain it by using English. Too hard for me.

>>68544367
Don't know about him, but in the UK they took grammar off the curriculum in the 60s. All we really learn are adjectives, nouns, adverbs and verbs; if you went to a good school you got taught the proper use of the apostrophe. Don't know why, but it's almost certainly because of hippy Marxists.

>>
>>68549211
In my opinion, not really. Until you have a large vocabulary the benefit of being able to look word up easily outweighs the cons. Just try not to rely on them too much
>>
>>68549211
Depending on the demographic, a lot of Manga has either furigana or just hiragana for some words. As long as you keep your reps up your vocab won't slip, so read whatever to get your comprehension up.

図書館 is the topic.
>>
Ok
How do I pour 200 kanji in my head in a week
>>
>>68549523
Literally 30 a day with anki
>>
>>68549294
because that the answer to the question.
ボブ is not talking about any random 図書館, he is talking about the one アリス is talking about.

The first は is like "regarding X" and the が is like "regarding THIS X (=the one you are talking about)". At least that how I see it.

Therefore, to me, the rule is like when answering to a question about something which was asked to you need to use が.

ex:

これは何?
これが本です。
>>
>>68549511
Oh shit

So if the person you're speaking to changes the topic with は, you'd have to use が when talking about that continued topic until someone changes it again?

I think i'm starting to fucking understand.
>>
>>68549738
Well usually the topic is omitted in the answer, because both speaker know what topic is so there's no need to mention it again -unless you really want to point out to the other person that you are talking about what he said.

Just like >>68549403 did

other example:

Aさん:動物園はどうだったか。
Bさん:(動物園が)楽しかった。
>>
>>68549738
Generally when you are talking about a continued topic you don't even mention it. Kinda like how pronouns work in English, but in Japanese it's normal to drop it completely.

In your example, they are still talking about 図書館, but he's also pointing out that 図書館 is ここ

For example, if the topic was ここ (as if the building or location was unknown and the speaker wanted to know where he was) the conversation would go.
ここはどこ?
ここは図書館だ

I think the 「ほうがいい」 set phrase demonstrates the principle quite well. If we were to say 「ほうはいい」 that would just mean "this way is good" or "this way is fine/okay/etc.", but with が it becomes "this is THE good way" "this is the way it should be", "we/you/it should do x" etc.

so if the question was これは何ですか

I understand the first one sounds more coherent, but would the second statement still be grammatically correct or is it not possible to say it that way?
>>
>>68559777
>それは猫がいる
Strictly speaking it is grammatically correct but it is not a good answer to the question and it's hard to tell what you're trying to say with it.

The same structure can make sense in other contexts, though.
>私は猫がいる
As for me, there is a cat. (I have a cat.)
>>
>>68559937
how would それは猫がいる translate to english then?
I thought it would mean "here is(exists) a cat"
while それは猫です would translate to "this is a cat"

>>

>>
>>68563646
The expression you want to use is "there is..." or "there are...", right? Describing the existence of something. "There are two DJTs" or something.

This is expressed by ~がある(あります) and ~がいる(います) in Japanese.

それ literally translates to "it" or "that". If you use それは and 猫が together, you have two subjects to the sentence. "It is a cat exists" or something similar.

Well, the grammar structure のに was the entire point of the sentence. I was more commenting on the sentence's meaning in relation to learning the language, but here you go:

Contrary to everybody’s expectation based on the sentence preceding のに, the proposition in the sentence following のに is the case.

Even though; despite the fact that~; although; but; in spite of the fact that~

Should I use the core2k deck linked in the guide, or the newer segmented one on ankiweb? I started the one linked in the guide but I'm only a couple days in, and if this one is worse I'd like to know now so I can switch relatively painlessly.

I remember someone saying they found errors in the ankiweb core2/6/10k deck. The deck in the guide should be core 6k. Stick with the guide one and when you're done that mine your own words.

Has the users in the thread gone down since the switch?

I keep missing days in Anki because I get discouraged when learning new words. Maybe my retention is shitty but learning new words is hard. I due reviews first so I can concentrate on new words by themselves but it burns me out so fast. That I end up turning new words off for like a week. It's like I'm learning 20 new words a week. Is there anything I can do to help with this?

>>68576441
I still took your advice and it actually helped somehow.
>>
>>68576480
If you're struggling with 20 words a day and end up doing 20 a week because of it, then you may aswell start out with like 5 or 10 a day. 5 new words will take you no time. Once you get consistent with that and it gets into a habit you will probably naturally want to increase it. I used to be in the same boat, but once I started doing them again, I didn't want to break the streak.
Also I find that putting your reviews off and doing them last thing before you go to bed makes it a huge chore and you end up getting shitty retention which results in more reviews the next day. If you are doing this, then try and do them earlier. If you ever think "I'm bored" or have a little bit of free time, then do some reviews. Usually I'm like "I can take a break once I get 100 reviews down" or something. Little rewards and goals to work towards even during a single anki session
>>
>>68576356
I don't think he's memeing you. There are certain things that increase blood flow to the brain, suggesting stronger development. A high carb meal increases blood to the brain, exercise also increases blood flow, and doing multiple tasks at once (such as reading out loud) also increase cognitive function.

What does this mean? When doing your reps, do anki after breakfast or lunch (or a snack), read outloud the word and meaning before and after viewing answer, and get a moderate amount of exercise every day.

There is also suggestions that prestimulus materials, such as puzzle solving (sudoku, karuo, picross), not only improve cognitive function but heighten cognitive function after finishing the activity. So if you've got time, relax with a puzzle first.

Now fish oil? That's a meme. Don't believe in that bullshit.

It's weird how well this mnemonic shit is working.
Currently got an 80% correct rate after 5 days/94 kanji; though I'm sure that will start to trickle down when I'm approaching 2000 of the buggers.

Some of the mnemonics the Heisig came up with are pretty tortured though. I'm having an easier time learning the radical/primitive names and coming up with my own for a lot of the kanji meanings.

With nearly 160 reviews left, Anki stopped working.

I reseted and I was still at the 160 mark, but I reviewed about 20~30 cards that I had already marked as Good today.

Has 20~30 actual cards gone unreviewed and fallen into some sort of weird limbo and time paradogs?
>>
>>68580481
When you click Again the minimum number of reviews to get that card to the next day is added to your reviews left.

Let's say you had 101 cards due today, and you hit again on the first card then you close anki. Let's say the deck is set for 1/10/20/30 for forgotten cards, which is 4 reviews to get it to the next day. When you view the deck from the main menu it will show 104 reviews due today.

Does that make sense?

These threads were originally on /a/.
Mods moved us here because generals apparently aren't allowed any more.
Some people thought it would be more appropriate to make the threads on /jp/ instead, and began doing so; others meanwhile remained here.

Now we've got threads persisting on two boards. Personally I like it here because I can't stand touhou and can use the flags to ignore advice from darkies, but they're beginning to slow down. If the /jp/ threads are any faster we'll probably end up migrating for good soon.

Not much, but let me try to explain what happened since I think I was also confusing as fuck:

During reviews, there is a number at the bottom that shows New / Studying / Review

My "Review" number was around 160 when shit hit the fan.
When I opened Anki again, that number was still 160. But several cards I had already pressed "Good" were there.

So it's like the cards got on top of the pile again, but the number didn't increase - making me believe these repeated reviews replaced a group of cards.

Can I at least expect these theoretically skipped cards are somewhere with a due date stuck to them and will eventually show up? I'm comfus.

Like you said, that is not the problem of existence verbs.
Although this explanation has nothing to do with the question, I will try to explain that.

In Japanese existence verbs, non-human can be compared to human.
'いる' is used for a person who has a will.
That is to say, it can be the passive.
夫に家にいられると困る。
I'm in trouble when my husband lives at home.
(I'm in trouble when my home is lived in by my husband.)

On the other hand, 'ある' means only an existence.
ex. There is a bed in my room.
The former word is also used for things that has a will for example animals.

Whenever we change a theme, we should use 'ところで'.
Though, there are some posts that 'ところで' does not exist.
In the case, people are often confused.

Yeah, stop turning off new words. You need to realize that forgetting a word does not mean you fucked up. It's part of the learning process. You learn, forget, and relearn most things many times before they enter your long-term memory. Whenever you forget something, know that you are that much closer to recognizing it next time. If there are words that are really fucking you over, then get a notebook and write your problem words 20 times each. Now quit being a bitch and do your reps.

How many reviews do you have due anon? That seems like hell. You will need to set a review limit and do that many every day until it eventually becomes managable

I'm guessing you don't have new cards.
If that's the case, set a daily task of doing X reviews, instead of doing everything.
300 or 500, for instance.

If you want to do new cards, you'll either have to place them before reviews or make a separate deck, I believe.

Because 'remake' is an English word because there is no such word in French. And because the word 'direct' is not used in a grammatically correct way, it's used as if it was an English word because the following word remake is English.

Am I missing something when it comes to new characters? I mean how am I supposed to be able to answer if I've never even seen the character before?
Wouldn't it be better if the deck first showed the character along with meaning, reading etc and then asked you to answer it afterwards without having you pick "Again" ?

What determines how a kanji should be read

eg, 人気 ninki
今週 konshuu
今 ima
来ます kimasu
来週 raishuu
>>
>>68597393
さ is one of final particles.
さ, よ, ね, and な are them.
お前さ 近所に(さ) あいさつで配る粗品とか(さ) 用意してる?
お前よ 近所に(よ) あいさつで配る粗品とか(よ) 用意してる?

Those can add to the tail of each phrase.
That means a kind of feeling.

Huawei Honor 5X with CM13.1, and yeah, I set everything to Japanese. Due to the Han unification, browsers/OSs need to make assumptions sometimes, and if it's set to English it'll probably just default to a Chinese font and hope that's right.

Annoying, oh well

At least you can still read things if you understand the concept of the kanji
>>
>>68601845
When the kanji is alone it's one type of reading. When the kanji is in a combination with other kanji to form a single word it's one or many other readings.

Kanji have two different kinds of readings, yeah? Kun-yomi 訓読み and on-yomi 音読み.

訓読み represent native Japanese words, while 音読み represent borrowed Chinese words. In English we have something similar: native English words with Germanic roots, like "I," "him," "go," "run," "tree," etc, and also words borrowed from Latin or Greek like "disgust," "explain," "interval," or "language."

In your post, 今 and 来る both use 訓読み because they are native Japanese words, not words based on ancient Chinese roots. Verbs and adjectives and other inflected words with okurigana on the end like the る in 来る are almost always 訓読み. So are simple nouns written with only one kanji like 懐 (ふところ), 礎 (いしずえ), 所 (ところ). Do you notice how these readings all have lots of kana crammed together for only one kanji? This is common in 訓読み.

In your post 人気, 今週, 来週 all use 音読み, the Chinese reading. Notice how they are two kanji put together to make a word that combines the meaning of two kanji? Now + week = current week. Come + week = coming week. This is similar to how words are formed in Chinese. When words are formed this way, the Chinese reading is used.

If you consider the word "cardiomyopathy" in English, which means "disease of the muscles of the heart," you can see that it is made of the Greek roots "cardio," meaning heart, "myo," meaning muscle, and "pathy" meaning disease. The same word in Japanese is 心筋症, which is made up of the Chinese roots しん meaning heart, きん meaning muscle, and しょう meaning disease (exactly the same as the English word).

Even if it doesn't make sense right away you will grasp the concept eventually.

人 is an exception isn't it?

It's still an on-yomi, it's just now you're combining a word borrowed from English with a word borrowed from Chinese.

But if you think about 中国人 or 韓国人 they're both all Chinese words.
>>
>>68603272
I think prefixes and suffixes mostly use their 音読み, like 旧, 超 or 的

What do you mean by that? It's autosave(ctrl+s) the moment you copy the words. Unless ofc, fuckups happens and even then, it would normally ask when you close notepad.
>>
>>68606860
It wasn't copying the words. I was using the script where you pressed Windows + C and it automatically saves it into a txt file. For some reason, it wasn't copying into that text while so there was a good 10-20 words I didn't realize didn't copy over.

I'm progressing in tae kim's grammar guide and decided it's time to start mining

If I'm aiming for the N3 next year (my first time taking a JLPT) should I choose a JLPT specific mining deck? Would N3 mean i need the N5, N4, and N3 mining decks?

Doing 20 words a day. I'm not a pussy.

It's an old bug that I thought I've fixed. Apparently, I didn't research the problem enough to understand why it's happening. So yeah, sorry. This version should fix it and fix alt+tab bug (after copying the words, it should return to previous window) that I didn't know happens.

No.
Do Core like everyone else. Then when it's a month before the test you can go fill in the gaps with the JLPT vocab for whatever level you're taking.

But remember that there is no official JLPT list so really JLPT vocab is just normal vocab minus the interesting words.

Different anon, but I'd recommend the Core6K deck from the guide. Core6K should be more than enough to get you started because you really want to start mining sooner rather than later.

Really wish I'd started learning Japanese before I got a job. I spent like 7 years wasting my time on MMOs/university, and now I want to do something productive I get barely any time to study.

Also was any of the Japanese above particularly fucked up? I'm only 5 days into core6k and Tae Kim so my grammar is probably atrocious.
>>
If you're having trouble with focus and don't want to use drugs, i suggest timeboxing and studying in 2 minute intervals, it really helps me keep focused on the reps.

it can be applied to reading too and you can pick whichever interval is best for you, just make sure you don't have it too long.

You didn't think to do a bit of a google search on those keywords? Before trying to teach yourself a language might be better off working on how to think independently.
It's not like there aren't ample references out there to gleam information from if navigating the djt homepage is a little too much.
https://www.google.co.jp/search?q=djt+japanese+core+2k+6k
Kind of amazing how these same things keep getting asked over and over again by people who are indirectly or directly trying to take the autodidact approach. Maybe the Guide should put a big clause above the everything that states

at least you are not a Japanese working in Japan. it would be 10 o'clock when he ends up coming home. your grammar is readable considering the context. those short sentences and green texts look legit.

if I should point out

basically, 午前 and 午後 are put before the time numbers. 5:15午後が帰る is fixed and 午後5:15に帰る would come out instead. we suppose the subject (omitted) is "I" so, for instance, the completed sentence is like 私は午後5:15に帰る(I leave workplace at 05:15 p.m.) It finally can be changed without the subject. "が" is most likely to be used to be combined with subject. if you want to use it in any way, you should use "05:15 p.m" as a subject. but I don't know how natural it is in English. in Japanese, we would say 午後05:15が退社時間(です), though.

7時の頃 is not so bad, still some people may say 7時頃 sounds better. 昼寝する in casual speaking is fine so that's ok enough. people would say 昼寝をする instead. speaking of the last one, I'll suggest 8時が勉強し始める時間になる. it sounds like the schedule is late.

Hey DJT I've started learning in the university about 3 months ago and I stopped learning Japanese. Now I want to go back and start learning again because the university is easy for me.

Japan has a culture that is very unsupportive of disabled people.
Their mental health care system is practically nonexistent, you almost never see wheelchair ramps, even major public buildings aren't fitted with hearing-aid loop systems. It should come as no surprise they cant be assed subtitling their media for the hearing impaired.

Ironically though they did invent the embossed circle stuff you see on the ground so blind people can navigate train stations and bus stops, etc.
