I had a hard time in the beginning as well, but my brain got better at memorizing patterns and associating them with letters and meaning. I remember in the first few days, I was literally staring at the same kanji for 5 minutes, trying to engrave it into my brain, and then when I go next and see it again 30 seconds later, I was completely incapable of remembering what kanji it was. Made me feel straight up brain-damaged.

Lower it to 10-15, enable FSR and start reading/watching anime with jp subs. You can put it back to 20 or more after you start immersing more because it's easier once you do that
>deck
>click cog for options
>disable reschedule cards on change
Just make sure to click optimise every month or two. Having FSR enabled should decrease review counts and keep retention and whatever you set it to. 85 is the sweet spot imo

You'll have to take off the training wheels eventually. If you're reading subs and not devoting your full attention to listening, you're going to become dependent on the subs and make it harder for you to listen in the long run.

Guy trying to learn Japanese here. Is this anki card shit really necessary? English is my second language and I learned it by full immersion, no duolingo or apps like that. A bit of a waste of time imo, learning the concepts or words with no context it's not the same as finding them in REAL material. Then you just try to understand the sentences by yourself by using google translator or asking chatgpt and relating concepts. It's much harder this way, but in the long-term it will make you understand the language more. So I think I will follow the same process to learn japanese.

>>48050150
Set it to 10-15 and don't feel too bad early on, the first 6~ months are by far the hardest part
>>48050165
Anki is for kanji readings because japanese is retarded, you could grind out without anki but it's a massive pain in the ass. I do agree it's a waste for any non chink language tho
>>
>>48050150
>I only started recently, how many new cards a day should I have?
100
>>
>>48050165
The main reason people cram shit with Anki is to frontload Kanji in a short span of time so that they can actually get to the part you described, full immersion. It's different when you literally must learn how to read from basically zero all over again. You get a huge head start learning any language that shares your alphabet/reading system, and that makes it feel "easier" to learn those languages since you can indeed just go straight into reading/listening.
>>
>>48050165
No and I consider anki to be a meme
>don't skip grammar learning
>if you want to grind kanji characters, do it through radicals so that they're easier to memorize (such as 海 - sea, 悔 - scorn/despise, 侮 - repent/regret all together for example)

>>
>>48050150
I left it at 20. Once you got through a couple hundred cards and you hit your daily limit, it won't show you new cards.

>>48050165
If Japanese wasn't half ching chong it would be a meme.
>>
>>48050165
I can definitely say that you will never learn Japanese.
>>
>>48050140
The more you learn Japanese the more you realize it's not because of crappy translations, but most of this shit is just not translatable or else it completely looses its meaning or satirical sense. Learning the language is the only way.

one way is how you say it with non-jukugo words.
The other is how you say it by itself as its own word. For example
生 means life in compound words (pronounced すぃ)
But by itself most times it means raw (pronounced なま).

Just don't fuckin worry about it dude. You can always add to your stock of known meanings for words at any time. It's actually easier once you know one meaning since you can compartmentalize it right there. What are you gonna do, get mad that 桜 can mean "cherry blossom" and "shill" (actual meaning, not 4chan meaning) but no one told you about the 2nd meaning? No, you're gonna go "cool sakura ALSO means shill, logged away and filed" and move on in life.

I still maintain to say anki is a meme and certainly one of the terrible ways to learn the language.
And I really do emphasize in saying you shouldn't skip Japanese grammar. Anki is likely not going to teach you for example, the different forms of 後 (pronounced either ato, go or nochi) and their grammatical uses.

basic grammar I understand since you have stuff like tae kim's grammar guide and textbooks go in order over basic stuff like だ/です, ある as in exist, ある as in have/possess, ことがある as having done something in your life, する as in have black hair, etc.
but later on isn't grammar something that you look up as you go? I usually find a a sentence I don't understand and then search for its parts. e.g. 持ちつ持たれつ (verb1つverb2つ)

>侮 has ninben, the person radical on the left. people are hated by others. you have words like 侮る, 侮辱, 軽侮

You're taking way too long per card.

"I don't want to see this card ever again because the content is second nature at this point."

"I knew this immediately."
>Hard
"I eventually got this correct but had to think about it."

"I took more than 10 seconds and got it correct, or I got the meaning wrong, or I got the reading wrong."

Spending a minute on a card is retarded because you're wasting valuable time and mental energy that could be spent reviewing other cards or better yet immersing in native content. Just fail it so you see the card more frequently and it will become easier with additional repetition.

The whole point of programs like Anki is to save you time. Let the FSRS algorithm do its job.

What's a good way to learn kanji? It's still filtering me.
The symbols are whatever. It's remember the symbols and then also all the readings for it and knowing if they are relevant or not.

he has two decks, a full one with every sentence, and a speedrun with 2 sentences from each grammar point. this is the speedrun version.
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1705551744
he had an ai generate the audio for the sentences, so you might notice it just gets words flat out wrong sometimes.
i don't think sentence audio is even necessary though for a grammar deck

It's easier to learn full words instead of kanjis alone. Read more and with enough time you will start to recognize the kanjis and its meaning

sure, spending a minute per card is bad, but on the flipside, 90% comprehension or whatever goal you ankidrones set up is retarded. imagine not being able to _____ 1 word out of 10. doesn't that ____ very retarded to you?

dont do this >>48050280 keep your anki sessions less than 30 minutes. don't use easy and hard, only use good and again. this reduces decision fatigue and it ends being more accurate in the longer run. if you know you don't know it, just hit again. the other guy is right though more than 10-15 seconds on a card is alot, but i also assume you're new so that expected i guess.

Of course is not necessary, it's simply the fastest way to learn the language.
And not for "readings" but vocabulary. Learning isolated kanji is optional (and in my opinion pointless), but any language requires you to learn thousands of words amd spaced repetition is the fastest way to memorize stuff.

The problem is that retards believe Anki is some replacement for actual practice or that you need to memorize an arbitrary threshold of words to start reading when that's bullshit.

Do anki, and start reading and watching as soon as possible, even if you don't understand shit struggle with it.

What's better, being able to recall 90% of 10,000 words because you spend 6 seconds per card on average during reviews, or 95% of 3,000 words because you spend an average of 20 seconds? Knowing 9,000 words is far more likely to help me comprehend more of the sentence so I can guess/learn more easily for what I don't know, and, to learning words containing Kanji specifically, I am of the opinion that the more vocabulary you learn the easier it gets for your brain to intuit things and form the connections you need to learn even more. If you really want to waste your time, you could set a higher desired retention rate in Anki but that's just going to result in you spending more time reviewing fewer things.

neither. learn a language right.
it's sad that you ankidrones can't tell that statistics are a means to assess progress, not an end
worst of all, your methodology is flawed and assumes all words demand the same amount of attention and time to be acquired. content words like 車 are much easier to pick up than stuff like もっぱら or 臨む

I suggest you start drilling hiragana/katakana because they are easy to memorize, and start learning grammer through your resource of choice. There's plenty of text books, youtube videos, and other guides to basic grammar. Once you've got a decent understanding of the basics of grammer so that you can recognize how sentences are generally formed, you can start learning vocabulary and reading. Granted, the reading you do starting out will be slow as fuck and you'll have to look up what every single word means, but that's how it goes. Toss all the words you don't know into an anki deck, drill them a little bit each day, and you'll learn.

However you in particular will never learn this language without Anki.

in what ways will learning japanese and language learning in general will improved in the future?
>>
>>48050531
superintelligence will enable us to upload this kind of stuff to our brains like 10-20 years from now
>>
>>48050531
who knows. the only way language learning can realistically be improved when ai can measure what you know and don't know using data like flashcards and optimize your reading material to always be 90 percent comprehensibility.
>>
>>48050531
optimizing methods for acquisition. basically, speedrunning the language.
>detect and cases of language interference and take measure to minimize it
>give people ways to disambiguate and select words. you want to say appearance? there will be a chart or something that explains whether to pick 姿, 外見, 外観, 容姿, 容貌, etc.
>giving people ways to learn how to handle words or concepts from one language in the other. you say should (expressing an ideal, a prediction one is confident about, advice, etc.) and you'll get ~したほうがいい, ~すればいい, ~すべきだ, etc.
unfortunately people aren't too keen on this because helping people learn faster is basically working towards putting yourself out of a job.

I seriously need to get back to anki. When I started learning jap, I literally did all my reps 95% of days, but now whenever I try doing it I just get incredibly sleepy and decided to read manga instead. Even practicing writting is easier for me.

Get a beginners text book and work through it. The grammar exercises and explanations will be a huge help. Also don't be afraid to start engaging with native content earlier than you think, while it will be very difficult to begin with and you probably won't get anything but a very rough idea of what's going on it's a great way to stay interested especially as it let's you put what you learn from studying to practical use.
>>
>>48052237
the one downside about textbooks is that they shy away from stuff that isn't straightforward. the biggest example is probably は vs が. then you get retards insisting that 私はウナギです means "I'm an eel"

>>48050295
Don't you learn 蘇連 in the 6k premade deck? I would not exactly call it useful when you're starting out. Of course you should not exactly care that much about frequency of words because of course you will want to know what the Soviet Union is.

Whenever I tried to learn how to configure anki it seemed like such a hassle, I settled for doing spaced repetition manually with a spreadsheet and a random number generator.
>>
protip: use Twitter to follow your favorite Japanese celebs (artists or cosplayers etc..). It helps getting used to read Japanese sentences due to the nature of the platform (limited texts, casual texting style, etc..).
Try to read on 5ch as much as you can, as they talk about tedious stuff all the time just like on 4chan (/pol/ stuff, coomer stuff, etc..).

People tend to classify reading difficulty by the amount of rare or jargonic kanjis, or how long the sentences are. Not wholly. How ambiguous the writer's writing style does account for the degree of incomprehensibility. Muv Luv series have a lot of military jargons but the dialogue style is just military talking. Games like Parfait on the other hand tend to make it vague what the characters are talking about, beat around the bush a lot. Hence Parfait is not so easy to read despite its very casual setting and subject matter.

You're either joking or severely autistic and retarded.

If you are relying heavily on Anki, you're doing it wrong. Also not constantly immersing daily and going back to reading translations in your native language is what ngmi plebs do. You literally can find Japanese translations for anything including western music to help supplement your comprehension.
Regardless most people can't learn Japanese and shouldn't waste time on it because it objectively amounts to nothing for anyone (90% of people) who isn't consistent about it daily. Just shut the fuck up and embrace being a MTLpleb instead.

Can I really trust sentence cards? I worry that I'm just memorizing the cards and not the actual word I'm supposed to learn.
My distrust have reached levels where I now just try to ignore the sentence until I think I've got the word, but just the position of the word gives me enough cues.
Even some cards I never fail, if you asked me what characters the target word contains, I probably couldn't tell you. When encountering such words during immersion, I don't recognize them.
>>
>>48069509
are you retards unironically taking advice from a spam website that no one here endorses
>>
>>48069632
What's your recommendation then? Every time I ask about anything I just get answers like "more immersion" "trust the process" but it feels like I'm training my kanji fluency extremely slowly while I can easily remember what the words mean once I hear them or see the furigana, which seems to be backwards from what the JP1K method suggests should be happening.
I've only been at it for about a month, so it's possible it'll sort itself out, but it feels bad when I see potential problems and not take action.

Started learning japanese in 2017, used anki for about 2 years
I got N2 end of 2022 and am now working in Japan for a japanese company using 100% japanese

Anki is great if you use it correctly, my best tip is to not learn random core2k/6k words just because they're common, you'll have no connection to it and you'll forget it after a while
Instead put words you see but don't understand at the top of the queue, pretty much same as mining

i think the Tatsumoto guide is better (Decided to start using it a week ago) because they are more focused/streamlined idk how you call it.
