/DJT/「Daily Japanese Thread」第2120番

[Anonymous No.]

This is a Japanese language learning thread for those interested in traditional otaku media such as anime, manga, light novels, Japanese video games, and bangers.
If you have no interest in otaku media or want to request a translation, this is not the thread for you.

Read the guide before asking stupid questions.
https://itazuraneko.neocities.org/
Old guide for those afraid of change:

Remember: you DON'T WANT to give up learning Japanese.

If you don't score 50 minimum on this memory test is it even possible to learn Japanese?

[Anonymous No.]

「戻ってくるだろう。負けっぱなしで納得するようなヤツじゃない」

I'm a bit confused by the second half of the sentence. I understand that 負けっぱなし is a losing streak, but thinking of it as something like 'He doesn't want to continue his losing streak' doesn't seem to fit the sentence. I'd appreciate help.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20932793
i don't know japanese but "he's not the kind of guy who'll 納得する just because he's on a losing streak" is what i got out of that without any more context than that

i think the key to it is coming up for names for the ones u see on the fly. i did well when i could think of a word to associate them w/ quickly. further legitimising heisig's methodology imo.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20932900
oh if i did that it prolly woudla been a lot easier cuz i coulda just said a sequence of things and then repeated while looking at the choices

idk if its so much that its heisigs methodology here cuz ur effectively zipping the information into something smaller to store in ur brain whereas shit like rtgay is unpacking kanji to then repack into not kanji to associate with kanji which seems really stupid

I did Core: Exposure and then disabled all of the cloze sentence cards (which you can do by going to "Manage Note types" -> "Cards" and deleting the tab related to cloze).

But in retrospect I sorta wish I had done Core: Random, because you'll be able to recall the meaning of a word/grammar point by mere recognition of the sentence, or recognition of other words in the sentence. Hell you can recall the meaning of a point based on the shape of a sentence and how long/short it is. But the more you rely on external hints like that, the less likely you are to recognize the grammar point while reading.

So I force myself to only glance at the grammar point and pass/fail based on that. Then I read the sentence(s) afterwards to refresh myself on the usage.

what i'm saying is that i might as well be reading japanese extremely slowly over reading english that is awkward at best and incomprehensible at worst. a "good translation" doesn't only consist of conveying meaning.

>>20932985
i mean you're right that the smarter you are the more likely you are to use techniques like mnemonics but i would wager the majority of differences between most people in memorization is down to inherent computational abilities rather than mnemonic usage.

No worries. My best advice, which you can do with as you please, is to try and find a Japanese dude you want to speak like - I'm assuming you are yourself a dude - and emulate their manner of speaking (so you can gauge how often and in what situations you should use よ, ね, etc). 頑張ってね 名無し

Congrats on the language gains, genuinely, but even if you yourself managed to do it later in life, it doesn't mean that it's on the whole difficult for people at that stage. Idk the validity of the claim itself, especially considering it's a troll, but I'm just saying

>>20933711
There's really no trick, you just have to actively not do other shit and stick to your studying. that's probably not what you want to hear but there's really no other way around it. as you do it more and more and do it consistently your will power will increase, but that doesn't mean you can then be lax about it. I would say it's best to set x amount of time everyday for studying, like an hour or two - ideally 2 at the lowest - and do it at the beginning of your day, or as early in your day as you can. Once that's done you can do other shit, and if there's still time left in the day then do some more studying. Just be a neet, but with studying Japanese.

yes let's put common kanji in the back of the book because the creator doesn't know any japanese, never put any focus into recalling which kanji make up what words, and spend months developing a trivial skill that may or may not help you actually learn to write japanese
matt and khatz fell for a scam and pushed it onto other people none of the bullshit logic they come up with will ever change that

[Anonymous No.]

yea the thing anyone whos proficient themselves can tell about khatz and aidsjatt is that he didnt do the shit hes pushing to become proficient

but at the same time its really hard to understand how it all comes together and leads to proficiency in the first place so when u try to really think about it and comprehend it u already begin essentially making up a story that isnt true

the truth is it just happens like the first time u masturbate and ejaculate the conditions just have to be ripe for it like how life crawled out of hte ocean 69 billion years ago and it seems input is the mainest of ingredients

for one thing the definitions are much more precise.

look at this for example: 図体 jmdict gives it "body; frame​", but the japanese definition is more more illuminating as to how it's actually used.

>>20934202
Definitions are more accurate and nuanced. With the obvious exception of a some nouns since a chair is always a chair etc. Also means that looking up a word ends up as passive practice since you're reading moon.

At least with the j to e and e to j dictionaries I've seen, they dont actually define the word, they just give you synonyms - which, as you may or may not know, often have 3 or more. J to j dictionaries actually define the words and all the instances of where a word is used. so not only do you get a better understanding of any given word (once you can understand the definition), but you can also explain the concept better (in your native language and Japanese).

So conversely, I dont see the point in not doing it (unless you dont care to have a full understanding of the words you're using).

he doesn’t think it’s essential. as for language learning, the point is mental clarity and ability to focus better and for longer. that’s it.

meditation, especially with the mind illuminated, has other effects too like being able to achieve total bliss and satisfaction just by training your mind.

i’ve been working on my meditation practice with that book and it’s quite amazing what’s possible. it enables you to wake up to your own bullshit and heal/release suppressed emotions. i’m much more peaceful now.

Sorry but I'm still not convinced. Full understanding will only come with lots of exposure in lots of different contexts, regardless of whether the initial understanding comes from a Japanese definition or a rough English synonym. At the point where Japanese definitions are as easy to understand as English ones then, sure, switch but before that I'd rather spend time that time on compelling content.

He's making a reference to a noodle commercial from back in the day. where the conductor was eating noodles on the front of the train and he's like "all aboard the noodle train!" or some shit.

i think this is obvious but there are larger amounts of time when you can’t jack off, like in public, at work, etc. and even when you do, the pleasure lasts until you’re done cumming then it ceases and you go limp. usually followed by a craving for more stimulation of some sort. it’s a constant chase.

meditation removes the cravings so you don’t feel dissatisfied in the first place. even if you decide to jack off, you don’t need to jack off to feel happy or at peace. peace becomes your default.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20934398
The first part is fair, and I agree with you, but in the latter half you speak as if the monolingual transition is in conflict with the idea of fully transitioning when you can fully understand the j to j definitions; it's not. There's a process of easing into it while still being able to use a bilingual dictionary when needed, and then when you've reached the requisite level you can fully transition. I don't think we're necessarily at a crossroad.

i didn’t say there’s something wrong with it. i just said it doesn’t deliver *lasting* satisfaction or peace.

cravings, frustrations, anger, and distraction all return to your experience after jacking off, regardless of how slow you did it. training your mind eliminates a large amount of dissatisfaction from your entire life experience, without having to touch your dick and even at times when it’s not possible to.

that doesn't make any sense. it's a known fact you can improve your nominal score on psychometric tests for example but the vast majority of people don't practice for them so it's not an issue, and those nominal scores still predict performance in other areas of your life. if you practice for a test or if someone feeds you the answers your score does not predict as well. if you had to practice to score above 40 on that memory test then it's over for you.

This test doesn't mean shit. If you can speak, read, and write any language, you can learn Japanese.

The hardest part to learn Japanese are
>finding the right learning material
>investing enough time to learn Japanese

There is a simple rule
>do you know Japanese?
>yes
Then you can try questionable learning methods like AJATT or MIA.
>no
If you don't know Japanese, you need someone who tries to explain you the language as "good" as possible. In this case use textbooks which were written by real teacher (with teacher I mean every person who has a university degree and working experience in teaching the language). Also look at real reviews about those textbook. I would highly recommend to always pirate a textbook before buying it, because nothing is more frustrating than spending money on a bad textbook for learning Japanese. You have to love Japanese and every minor thing like buying bad textbooks can discourage you to learn the language. Especially in the beginning trying to stay motivated is the most important thing and a good textbook will always support you in staying motivated but also making progress. The only thing to look out for is to only use "adult college/university" textbooks. You want to learn the language as fast as possible. Don't waste time with elementary school stuff.

because that's shit for learning Japanese. it inevitably falls into reading practice, and on top of that it's in English, so you're not even getting better at reading Japanese. you hear the Japanese in the background which gives you the guise that you're understanding things, but if you were to take those subtitles away you would be mostly if not entirely lost (that is, assuming you don't have a lot of pure Japanese input).

Japanese people are required to learn English in high school, so they don't really need help getting off the ground like so many westerners starting to learn Japanese do. Thus, what they have is an English board on 2ch where you have to talk in English. To your average Japanese person that paid attention in school, they're at the "just read and listen" stage of learning by default, except the reading is hard so they don't do it.

Not really.
If you want to start learning Japanese, you objectively will start off needing to learn a lot of meta information. I remember, years ago as a beginner, not understanding at all how Kanji worked. How many were there? How do they fit into sentences? Words? How are they used? Read? etc. A westerner learning Japanese needs to put in a lot of legwork just to learn how the language fundamentally works before they can start reading/listening (productively). Meanwhile, Japanese people already know all the shit about English, they just need to flesh out their vocabs and get more used to the grammar.

i was into learning japanese a while ago. i only know some hiragana, no katakana. the thing is, i don't know how to study. i know i have to know the kana but how do i do it?

[Anonymous No.]

>>20938149
if you're really hating it, just do what i did and start reading stuff you're attracted to and farming simple setences from that.

even better, anime with japanese and english subtitles, so you can more accurately pick words, or sentences that are on your grammar level, while not missing out on the storyline due to not being able to understand all of it yet.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20938538
Learn them in groups of 5. Write them down each 50 times to get mechanical memory.
Then find some kana learning app on the internet that keeps testing you until you drill them in. Shouldn't take more than a day or two.

[Anonymous No.]

friendly reminder that it doesn't matter at fucking all how much better someone else is at japanese than you, unless they positively inspire you to keep going.

what matters most is acknowledging and appreciating your own progress, and feeding your intentions to improve with consistent action.

hope u got better reasons to learn the language than ur not yet shattered dreams of nihonjin ni naritai

[i see the light in u No.]

i have another good tip for y'all. if you're at the level of japanese where you can understand words and sentences intuitively, then when you do your reviews, don't force yourself to recite (verbally OR mentally) the definition. instead, allow being able to "feel the meaning" to let you pass the card.

for example, if my new word is 亀頭 (sorry i just saw this word in the thread and it came to mind to use this example haha) and the sentence is

「亀頭を口に入れた。」

if i can read the sentence with correct readings and imagine the 亀頭 being inserted into the 口, i don't need to actively try to recite ”亀頭 means penis head" in my mind or out loud, nor do i have to check the definition. I can just consider the review passed once i've experienced that full comprehension in my mind's eye.

this will help you use anki to train a more intuitive "absorption/integration" of the language, rather than it being a hyper-conscious memorization game. it also takes way less time to get through reviews if you do it this way.

If you want to train your ear properly, you shouldn't be using subtitles. even watching it once without subs and then with subs is questionable because it's at least halving the time you have for training your ear.

>>20939955
I'm not sure I completely follow; your reading level is arbitrary in what in saying. If you watch anime (or any other medium) with subtitles, you're doing reading practice, not listening practice. If you want to be able to watch anime and understand it without reading what is being said, watching it with subtitles is bad. If you just want to work on your reading, even If your reading skills are shit, it will get better (and by all means watch with subs).

[Anonymous No.]

it doesn't matter
watch stuff with and without subtitles
there's no reason to avoid doing stuff japanese people do

do japanese natives encounter a larger number of kanji they don't know when reading a regular book than english natives do words on average? if I had to look up words in a random book more than one or two times I'd get pissed off.

[Anonymous No.]

>>20940035
it matters because if your reading level is shit you will focus alot on subs and are more prone to pausing as aposed to just casually scanning while listening.

>>20940054
I would say japanese readers run into a similar number of unknown words to muricans but they are more likely to just not know a ward at all and pretty much skip over while muricans can just pronounce it out and think about what it sounds like.

conversations aren't actually that helpful unless you're already fairly decent in nipponese. If you're talking to them face to face, on the phone, or some videocam thing, you're gonna be making a lot of mistakes, you'll be thinking of what you're gonna say next more than interpreting and dissecting what they said, you'll often not know how to properly respond; ultimately a waste of time. if you're texting on LINE or something it's better, but many of the same problems persist, and also there you're going to be spending a lot of time looking stuff up to say; you'd be better off watching animu or something.

i had a really great 30 minute meditation session this morning, after not sitting for a while — and all day so far i’ve felt fucking amazing. it’s a feeling that can accurately be described as an innocent, causeless, child-like joy, and clarity.

my senses feel sharp, colors are brighter and more beautiful. the usual aches and pains in my body feel much more faint and aren’t bothering me. i’ve been able to genuinely feel happy for others and wish them well from the bottom of my heart (even coworkers i usually don’t fuck with).

as for japanese, i literally could do 2 hours of anki right now without complaining. this morning i spent near an hour nonstop reading a pretty difficult book i started recently. things that are usually in my japanese study experience, that haven’t happened since i meditated this morning:

- impatience, wanting to hurry up and finish the page/reviews
- judging myself or getting frustrated for not knowing all the words on a page
- over-focusing on the “study” aspect rather than relaxing and letting myself enjoy the language
- ignoring the fact that i’ve gotten better

i will say i’ve been meditating on and off for a while, so it’s not like this will happen after one day or anything. but for anyone interested in cultivating these kinds of states, i highly recommend taking up a practice.

no they aren’t. they’re for people who struggle with the impulsive need to insult strangers and feel superior to others.

kinda like you :/

>>20940908
you don’t have to start super long! i’ve personally had only a handful of days when i’ve done more than an hour total. usually it’s 10 to 30 minutes a day, often skipping a day or two heh.

lately the results i’ve been seeing have been so great though, that i naturally feel like amping up to 1~2 hours total per day.

so don’t feel like you have to start off going super hard. master the basics with shorter sessions at least a few times a week, and once you start seeing results you’ll probably naturally feel like increasing it.

best wishes! :)

I once came without touching my dick. It was one of the most powerful orgasms ever too. I couldn't do it again and I was just really in the zone that night. I hadn't fap'd for a few days and just kind of closed my eyes thinking about some booty and felt it build. Within 5 minutes it happened. It was like that jizzed in my pants song.

lol OP said manga isn’t continuous so it doesn’t build “reading endurance” and the pictures distract from reading

i do it with manga and it’s made me much faster at reading manga. i just barely glance at the pictures after the first reading, and read two pages as one section when i time myself.

I've got to point out the ユダヤ人 who made this infographic -- ability and knowledge can be developed, but not intelligence itself. They love to make subtle errors like that in order to maliciously twist perspectives.

intelligence can be developed.

intelligence is the ability to process and make connections between new knowledge in efficient ways. this skill can be developed if it's specifically practiced.

genetics plays a role of course. but it's not the only factor. that's like the people who say they're fat because of their genetics, but they eat 3,000 calories a day and don't exercise.

Well, it's not like I had many options. I was told to come with $3000 in savings, and the private doctors would have charged me $570 for a simple check up. Even without that added expense, I'm still coming up short by a couple hundred on the recommended amount, and I know moving into Japan is expensive given how much you gotta pay up front for a place.

Not only that, but I've never even gone to a private doctor, I've always relied on Social Security, but my bitch of a doctor didn't wanna do a routine check up simply cause I told her it was for a job, she said "that's not my duty" and essentially told me to fuck off and find a private doctor, only because it required her to sign a paper. It's a fucking scam. I hate this country,

Do they make you take a doping test before accepting you for work in Japan?

[Anonymous No.]

>>20942297
No, it's a tuberculosis test. There is a urine test as well, but it's more to check if there's any blood in your piss and whatnot. I get them regularly anyway, but my doctor didn't wanna do it if it was gonna be for a job.

The rest is just regular doctor check up stuff, vision test, blood pressure, pulse, height, weight, etc... you can literally do everything yourself minus the Xray for Tuberculosis and the Urine test.

Yes, I already got the work visa in fact, well the CoE, and I got my passport stamped for entry. I get the visa upon arrival to the airport in Japan. It's valid for 3 years. I leave for Japan next week.

My real issue, is again with the health check up paper, which is more for my company that I'll be working with. It seems to be a government requirement really, and I'm just curious as to how much they'll be looking into this. I don't think very much, but I'm just asking in case anyone might have any experience.

I have a Masters in Physics but am struggling in the last stages of my PhD.
