Inas Japanese is pretty good

[Anonymous No.]

Im fluent in Japanese but impressed by her Japanese. Its clearly better than Moris. She might actually try hard to learn it. And unlike Mori, she actually can talk with a Holo JP member in Japanese for minutes.

Ina actually speaks it fairly well, she hides it because she doesn't want to get Kiara's job of having to be everyone's translator like what happened to a certain painter during an amogus collab.

Ina's Japanese isn't anywhere near good enough to do realtime translation. She said in the Polka/Nene collab she basically understood what they were saying but it took all her focus so she basically couldn't keep up and speak back to them much at the same time.

She's good but you can tell by how often she pauses when speaking that she has to put a lot of effort in to it. She's good with 1 on 1 collabs but she struggled to keep up with nene and polka at the same time.

Way better than Mori though.

Its not even a meme. Japanese people tend to react very similar to different levels of Japanese. If you are 自己紹介 level they will tell you "You japanese is good!". The better you get the less friendly they actually get. From that its "How long have you been studying japanese?" > "How long have you been in Japan?". There is a level above that, but I have only seen it in my old Japanese professor. He speaks better moon that 97% of Japanese it feels and people start to openly distrust him at some point wondering if he is part of a setup.

My personal rrat is that Ina was born in Korea and lived there until her early tweens, probably 10 or 11 when her family moved to Canada. So while she's fairly native in English she's still maintained the accent slightly and also "thinks" in Korean.

That's not how that works. You generally think in the language you use most of the time, or in the last one you used. For example right now I'm thinking in English, even though it is my second language and literally nobody in my backwater town can speak it fluently.

It's more like this: both Japan and Korea (or Yamato and Goryeo) had their own flavors of retarded adaptations of Chinese for a long time. Eventually Korea was like "What if we had a writing system that matched our spoken language, and was super easy for the common man to learn, because literacy is cool?"

On the other hand, Japan was like "Naw it's cool just fuck our shit up", but then some aristocratic women kept writing cursive and eventually it became accepted as its own thing, separate from the wannabe-Chinese. Someone asked "Wait doesn't that make things more complicated?" and the other Heian aristocrats responded "Where do you think we are?"

I'm misrepresenting it slightly, because the Japanese "Wait doesn't that..." adaptation of kana happened over a few centuries, prior to 1100 (about?), and the Korean "What if we fixed it?" happened in the 1400's. So Korea put up with their retarded adaption of Chinese for longer before fixing it, whereas Japan went about making things more complicated as soon as they could. Sasuga Nihon.

Korean reading and writing is way easier to pick up initially, but the grammar is still as bullshit as Japanese, but that does me if you know Japanese already it is a leg up (and vice versa). Then as >>4423799 said, there is still a residual vocabulary root in Chinese that helps to be aware of if you want to get advanced.
