How many hours of Japanese do I need to read/understand this?
>>742031606probably less than one hour for that specific line of dialogue
>>742031606read: a weekend, since it's kana onlyunderstand:1-2 years. And the fact that it's only kana does not actually make it easier to understand if you're not a japanese child
just watch all of Cure Dolly and crawl through it with EN > JP and JP > JP dictionaries (Weblio)that's how I've been playing DLsite games
>>742033032you could have run all of those through an auto textfile translator genius
>>742031606Just play the gbc games or the 3ds remakes
>>742035510but then you did not understand what was said, nor can you without assistance of robots understand what someone means when they say similar shit. "understanding" =/= "being able to read translated text." Understanding is getting the underlying concept.
>>742031606this is sub N5. no kanji and it's all extremely common words
>>742035668>sub...that's not what that means, its JLPT N5. N5 to N1 are not "difficulty" levels but "comprehension/understanding" layers of "how complex something is to understand." Beginner baby shit is usually in JLPT N5-4 range due to the occasional rare-ish word.
>>742035510some of them are old 480p games with crunched up image text thoughbut I earnestly want to learn JP is why
>>742036165you need at least JLPT N3 for most average video games for under 12 years old age category, get to work.
>>742031606about 4 seconds
>>742031606I learned basic Japanese to play this game because the translation is never coming out and it only took a few months.
>>742037557based anon, you are on your way to Japanese Masterbaiting.
>>742031606My suggestion would be:>Start learning jiragan/katakana, it'll take few weeks to 1 month.>Learn basic grammar, it will take you 2 to 3 months. 4/5 if you're not particularly smart.Then, use OCR and texthooker to read all the kanjis you don't know and enjoy the game.
>>742038994don't learn grammar, just learn usual phrases until it sinks in and practice reading instead other than just basic: tachi = lots of, and the counter types, wo = verb, ha/ga = to be/is/was etc and go from there. Grammar is for once you have at least some basic understanding of the language. (which is how kids learn, they first learn daily use from their parents and common dictionary shit and learn through stories then they learn through grammar at school etc...)
Is Wagotabi any good, weebanons?
>>742039547trash, just grind through anki with an RPG/vidya deck.
>>742031606A few hours if it's just that specific sentence.It's not homoenglish.
>>742035617in your effort to sound smarter than you really are you missed the part where he said dlsite games
>>742040896DLsite games are often in the JLPT 2-3 category, not many require beyond that, some of the gooner games do have deep shit in text though.
>>742040638chinese/indian made this. Heel does not sound like Heal. "Heel" "Hill" sound more akin to each other due to the connecting "ee"/"i" sound. No English accent makes Flower and Flour sound the exact same either one has a glottal stop and the other does not even in Britbong, even write and right do not sound the exact same, the person who made this is confirmed AI assisted, gay and fake nigger. Only two of these are actual homophones.
ah yes, japanese, the language known to not have homophones.
>>742041901Too bad for you
>>742031606Isn't there a rom hack translation of this?
>>742031606You can learn kana in two weeks or so, and you will be able to read it. This particular sentence should be understandable to anyone watching anime <some name> "so-sonna, masaka, Tori-nano? Do-doushite?".But if you want to understand real sentences instead of just "omg wtf" then you gotta start learning words and grammar. See >>>/int/djt
>>742042571it's been worked on over the past decade, so never.
>>742043089How long does it take until I can form practical sentences like "look at these 2 monkeys having sex. i think that is funny."?
>>742041591this is a generic english teaching infographicuse reverse image search, it's existed since before 2019
>>742043089>”Tori-nano”Think it’s supposed to be “Terii”, the ー elongating to sound like the name “Terry”
>>742043495Took me a year for basic stuff like that.
>>742043641Ah yeah, right.
Probably just a few months if you actually use some textbooks and do your anki reps. Think all those early nip jrpgs didnt use kanji since the resolution was too low
>>742041591>Heel does not sound like Heal. "Heel" "Hill" sound more akin to each other due to the connecting "ee"/"i" sound.What the fuck are you talking about lol
>>742041591>retard with region dialect thinks his regional dialect is correctit isn't. Midwestern fags are the closest to "true" or blank slate English which is why they are easy to understand for most ESLs
>>7420316060 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds.
>>742046948literally got the first word wrong, good job
Let’s all go back…https://youtu.be/WwZ8T8lROD4?is=SCe4k8ddG_og0FEF
>>742041591Please, never talk ever again.
