most of djt says just learn kanji thru vocab

of course, this is an attractive prospect as it involves no hard work/study, but when you do the pure thu-vocab route you just end up recognizing the general shape of the characters and pay little attention to their individual components most of the time

as a result, you often fail to notice when the same kanji is shared across multiple words, which serves to increase the burden of remembering new words vs. if you could instantly recognize the kanji being utilized in them ("oh this is the same kanji from x")

to remember new vocab more efficiently and take away more from your time spent reading, being able to recognize kanji seems a vital skill

idk a good way to go about acquiring it tho and i definitely don't think something like rtk where you attach them all to english keywords is a good process (nor do i think the mindless rote approach adopted by most natives in school is likely to be an effective/efficient one)

any djt'ers have a good method for studying kanji?
