I just don't fucking care anymore about learning vocab, I'll just read a lot, look a lot up until I understand shit. Is that a good strategy? In some way, at least?
I'm just tired of having to repeat vocab all the time when I just want to have more input.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21047624
When I read I read. I don't bother obsessively mining everything I see because I don't care. I will look shit up and leave it at that. Some things stick and some don't. If you see stuff often enough you get the hang of it anyways. No one is forced to use Anki to do this.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21047439
Seems to me that the answer they want to hear is clearly A but I'm not sure why D would be wrong either.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21047655
anki is useful if you want fast vocab gains and decreased lookups. if you don't care about speed of vocab gains, or already have really infrequent lookups, then you don't need anki. for someone who still needs to look up every 5-10 sentences or even more often than that, anki is the superior choice for filling in those holes.

Is it true that if you are having too much fun studying you aren't working hard enough? Should I do more Anki and review grammar books instead of reading?

[Anonymous No.]

>>21047737
Yes. Having fun indicates that you are merely using the skills you already have, not developing new ones.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21047737
nope, i gamified my anki with rewards and visual stimulation and i've learned over 300 words the past month while having fun, plus reading a lot. don't listen to that grandpa over there.

[Anonymous No.]

What should I do if I start forgetting a lot of kanji? (RTK)
At this point I'm overwhelmed with reviews in Anki and I just keep forgetting more and more and adding more and more reviews each day.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21047737
Yes learning is at odds with having fun. Every time you feel yourself slip over the fun threshhold you should self correct as soon as possible to push it back across the learning boundary or else all that time is going to waste.

three of those are ichidan verbs and one is a godan verb. Your conjugation of 寝った is wrong, its 寝た. Accordingly the Ichidan verbs all end in た and the one Godan verb you had ends in った

>why the hell the past of 寝る becomes 寝った
It doesn't, it's 寝た
>and きる because きった
it would help to specify the verb you're talking about, as multiple verbs use きる
>shouldn't all of them just end in った?
Why would they? What says they all should? (These are the questions you should be asking yourself, then look into them)

It's best, in my opinion to think about verbs that end in る as either being いる/える verbs, or not いる/える verbs. If a verb has the final sound いる or える (走る, 見る, 知る, 食べる), then it MIGHT conjugate regularly. By regularly I mean 見る for example 見た, 見て, etc. If you don't like me using "regularly" that's fine, but just know that I mean by dropping the stem off and then adding the endings. But there are exceptions, like 走る and 知る for example (知った 走った, etc etc). These exceptions are pretty rare though. And verbs that end in る, but don't have the いる / える sound at the end, like 成る (なる) for example, they conjugate like the いる える exceptions (なった, なって etc etc).

Finally returned to learning Japanese after a 3 month break where I lost interest. Doesn't feel like my comprehension level has really gone down much, if at all, though I do feel like my reading speed has gotten pretty sluggish compared to what it was before. Hopefully I should be able to fix that before long though.

Anyway, I was part way through a VN when I quit, and despite thinking I was only about 50% of the way through it, it turns out the remaining routes are really short compared to the ones I'd already cleared (finished one of them in a single day yesterday and got about half way through one of the remaining two today).

Since it seems like I will probably have finished this VN by either the end of tomorrow or Tuesday, does anyone have any recommendations for what I could read next? Because of the huge break I took, I don't have anything lined up. I can handle slice of life content just fine at the level I'm currently at, so something a bit more plot-heavy (but not Muramasa-tier difficult) seems like it would be a suitable challenge at this stage. Don't really care about the genre, so long as the story and characters are good/interesting.

>>21048108
This isn't a definitive answer by any means, but 1. it should be known that ひらく can apparently be used for both transitive and intransitive situations, and あく is strictly for intransitive situations (開く, not 空く or 明く) and 2. I looked up 「が開く」(intransitive) and all of the readings were あく, and for を開く (transitive) all of the readings were ひらく. So as a rule of thumb you're probably fine reading the intransitive instances as あく and ひらく for transitive instances.

To put it very simply, Romeo is far more intelligent than anyone reading this thread, including myself. There are a great deal of very high level concepts in Cross Channel and any aspiring reader is going to need to accept that he probably doesn’t understand it all. From there, you reach the point of actually researching and interpreting all this shit, which could take years, honestly. And then you also have to consider that the vast majority of people just don’t have the level of reading comprehension or education necessary to really start to approach interpreting and understanding Cross Channel on anything but a surface level.

We have to use either どこにも or どこかに in a sentence and this one also seems a bit weird.
私はどこかに大きい町を住んでいるつもりです。
I had already written the sentence without どこかに and threw it in after
I'm trying to say something along the lines of "I intend to live anywhere as long as it's a big city"

Yo why do people here still think its a requirement to get a Japanese gf to know Japanese? In fact the guys with the most broken as fuck Japanese get those Jap girls most often. And why? Because those women are out for a different experience. They are not looking for something Japanese or else they would just date a Japanese guy. The last thing they want is some foreigner pretending he's Japanese.

As for the ones who are not looking for something else, they'll never date a fucking foreigner anyways if all they want is a genuine Japanese husband. Know your target audience. If your motivation is to get fucking laid, doing any of this here is the most pointless shit you could possibly do. You'd be better served to spend the same amount of time on /fit/ and then just randomly go to Japan for a few weeks.

Except you're not doing RTK, or anything like it. Doing RTK means using mnemonics to anchor components to a keyword. The mnemonic will introduce a logical reason for the character to be the way it is, making it stick easier, and you will almost automatically be able to write it.

I used to think this is what people call lazy kanji. But a couple of weeks ago, an anon proved me wrong linking me to a khatz post where he was teaching this lazy kanji method, and it basically consisted of keyword on the front and kanji on the back, but passing as good even if you got a couple of things wrong.

>Matt is an expert in learning Japanese to native-level fluency though
How is he an expert? It took him at least 5 years given the information we have, probably more that he's not owning up to. Does doing something once make you an expert? If he used his methods to learn another language in the amount of time he's claiming then I'd consider calling him an expert, right now he's just someone who Made It and thinks he knows what's best now, actively shitting on more acclaimed research like Krashen and Asher.

Matt claims it will take 5 years to master a language to the level that he has based on his most autistic method (Perfectionist Approach).

Matt tried AJATT for the first time in late 2010, when he was 15. He declared July 23, 2011 as the official start of his AJATT journey, at age 16.

Wrong. Reading is the best way to acquire vocabulary (see, e.g. "Reading and Vocabulary Acquisition: Supporting Evidence and Some Objections," S. Krashen) and once you have a large vocabulary it becomes much easier to acquire the correct pronunciation by listening while reading along with transcripts of comprehensible material.

There, now you have two plausible-sounding theories that directly contradict each other, both with the same amount of empirical evidence which is to say none at all.

I mostly hear german accents with english, but if I just look at the ways English natives pronounce German loanwords ...
English is more ... "flowy" with pronunciation and German and Japanese tend to seperate their syllables more. I'm not a linguist so I don't know any terms for that kind of thing.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21051385
Kind of, but not really. The default vowels are a little different, and some people (like Matt) overcompensate when trying to use the Japanese vowels. Also, pitch accent is a bit different from stress accent, but only because it's not responsible for changing the qualities and lengths of vowels very much. Long vowels also actually exist. Aside from that, there's nothing difficult about Japanese phonetics at all.

if any of you are actually serious about upping your listening skill, just do transcription. listen to anime raw or audio-only, type what you hear, and check with the j-subs. for words you don't know, you can just transcribe the pronunciation you hear in hiragana. do this every day for a different section of the audio and you'll get really good pretty fast.

Is no one bothered by the fact that it's not just that Matt's advice would be about what he did to learn Japanese, but what he now assumed would be good to learn Japanese, but never did himself and in fact doesnt know anyone in the world who actually implemented his ideas and learned Japanese?

This is what ultimately threw me off completely. I get what he did to learn Japanese. Do a shit ton of stuff in Japanese and be obsessed with Anki. That's as far as I would trust his advice on anything.

Inadequate stories

The stories presented are too sexualized and sexist. You can't have a kanji for gates (#1616) without someone naming it lesbians and making them do nothing but be a fetiche. Also, many stories don't consider diversity and rely on old cultural standards to create a story, only reinforcing a system of opression. You might think this kind of problematization doesn't belong here, but I still can't shake off the image of two lesbians moaning and a guy trying to get to them (#1623). This is awful. Even if it achieves the goal of the book, this type of content shouldn't be allowed in the community.
Furthermore, as someone else in the comments has pointed out, even though RTK is mainly read by adults, children have to be able to read a study book like this and be kept away from sexual content.

Time to rethink the goals of this community and what can be allowed in here.

[Anonymous No.]

Unpleasant to read through and full of mistakes

This deck has too many sexual references to the stories. The stories add very little to the reading of even a PDF version of Heisig's RTK, and this deck arrangement of RTK show a lack of clue as it relates to Heisig's subtle arrangement of material. Too much self-congratulatory time is spent criticizing the originator of this Kanji mnemonic system when it is actually the deck creators that misinterprets the keys and primitives as in the keys for Flesh, Dr., and Decameron.

I guess the deck's creators didn't factor in that I would sit down with
my daughter to go through the deck. So academically primitive.Great for mysoginist teen-agers.

In fact he was quite content with being much worse at Japanese than everyone else he hung around with just so he could improve that accent of his.

Why anyone would think that's the way to go I have no fucking idea. I think it's that weird obsession with wanting to be Japanese again.

I think it used to be way more prevalent 10 odd years ago than it is today. But there were a lot of genuine weeaboos over the years.

Getting a perfect Japanese accent is a parlor trick at best. It's neat to sound like a fucking idiot every time you open your mouth, but don't bend over backwards and try for months and months on end to just make your pronunciation better while you neglect other parts of language acquisition.

Japanese won't really care. It doesn't matter much professionally and you are most likely not asian anyways so no one is going to mistake you for being Japanese either way.

A lot of people seem to consider Japanese people "fake" or "cold". Especially Americans. I'm German so nothing about the Japanese demeanor bothers me.

If you come from a culture where it's normal to be social in every situation you're going to be weirded out. Japanese can be quite social but it's very dependent on the situation you're in. I've had a lot more people chat me up in a bar at night, but it never happens during the day somewhere out in public.

The rest should be common knowledge, like Japanese not liking to talk about opinionated things to people and what not.

It's a troll chart meant to trick beginners into trying to read highly complex works of literature like ティンクルくるせいだーす, 素晴らしき日々 and はなひらっ！

こんにちは、guys. I just found out about this thread and I would like to share my "method"
I don't like any formal tutoring, so I jumped right onto reading.
I found a light 小説 I wanted to read on itazuranekko.

I mark a sentence and see if there is 漢字 I dont know. If there is, I immediately write that 漢字 down from a couple of times to even 10 times in a row (depending on the complexity of the 漢字). I don't care about stroke order, since I'm not a native 日本語 speaker and dont intend to pretend to be.

Finished with the new 漢字, I paste the sentence on google translator and, through a lot of try and error, I manage to separate the words and write down the meaning for individual words. I then read the sentence a couple of times.
I've been doing this for more than 3 weeks now and I can feel my japanese improving! 頑張って ne

Please share your methods and make recomendations to improve mine, if that's okay to ask here.

bakugo is such an unlikable character that the literal droplets of "development" we get simply cannot make up for it. it's like if there were a character that tortured innocent dogs for no reason and by 4 seasons into a show he had developed into a better person who only tortures mice. yea no. i don't even love to hate him. i just hate him.

what’s the point of practicing writing at all if you don’t care about stroke order? that’s just gonna make things harder as you encounter more difficult kanji, instead of easier like it would be if you got stroke order down correctly

it really hurts because i genuinely think BNHA has some of the best art in any ongoing shonen manga but i just can't read that shit at all. the way the narrative always treats him like a victim, characters forgive him for no reason no matter what a bitch he is, just no.
ougamadoki zoo was better... isn't an accurate statement, but at least the aquarium arc was pretty good and the characters were okay.

the main thing that's funny about this chart to me is the "expected reading times" on a beginner chart. if you're picking your first vn you can expect the duration to be 2, 3, or even 4x what they say to expect.

What do you mean "seriously" ? In his November patreon q and a he said he used passive immersion all the time when he was going hard on ajatt when he was in school. Its my understanding that he makes the distinction that passive immersion in itself isn't beneficial, but if used with material you've already watched/listened to it can have good benefits.

daily reminder to use anki. keep your review time 20 to 30 minutes a day. stop adding new words whenever you want. liberally suspend cards you’ve successfully seen in the wild again. and read a lot.

i'm still forgetting cards from the premade decks but i am upping the interval limit from 2 weeks to 4 weeks to reduce the reviews from 45 a day to 30 a day, or whatever they'll be.

>interval limit
You did this to yourself.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21053865
yea i wanted to drill certain important grammar points over the past month or two so i set the maximum interval to 2 weeks but i think i'm willing to worsen my retention a bit to keep the reviews down. most of the grammar i'm forgetting is stuff i'm not encountering much or at all while reading so i think it'll be OK.

[Anonymous No.]

>>21053881
You shouldn't have a reachable interval limit. Anything you forget will be failed and have its interval lowered appropriately. Anything you don't fail will continue to grow. That's the whole fucking point.

Took me pretty much the entire day of non-stop reading, but I managed to check off another route. Just one more to go now. Hopefully I can finish that tomorrow and move onto something new at long last. I've been reading this VN since mid November of last year, whereas I should've finished it in early-mid January.

I have enjoyed this VN (君が主で執事が俺で) a lot though, which might not be very obvious from the fact that I took a three month break from it and am seemingly eager to finish it. If I didn't like it, I wouldn't have been able to spend the last 3 days straight doing pretty much nothing but reading it non-stop all day. There's a lot of good humour and the characters are all great, and for anyone who likes collecting 四字熟語 there are absolutely tons of them in this. Difficulty-wise, it's not Hanahira or Flyable Heart tier easy, but it's not all that hard either. Definitely recommend it to anyone who has a couple of VNs under their belt and is looking for something new to read.

sometimes i forget the term only part of the way through a long interval. by the time i see the word again i could have gone weeks or months without having known it. so i temporarily shortened the maximum interval to practice them more frequently.

just thought he's been saying recently that passive immersion isn't a big deal which i thought really separated him from khatz who said you should listen for 24 hours a day

[Anonymous No.]

did you guys disable the feature that tells you how many days between intervals depending what you answer? i did just curious

[Anonymous No.]

>>21054008
Is there a reason to do that?

[Anonymous No.]

>>21054039
displaying the intervals doesn't help you learn at all it just makes you pick based on what you feel like

[Anonymous No.]

here is a tip for all u dekinais out there, whenever you come across a manga page or a paragraph you can't read that well yet, save it and try after a few months. the hit you get after realizing you are improving helps w/ motivation
