they've been at it for awhile combined with them riding the japanese media boom when that was a thing
also when you've got the money to basically chillax in japan seemingly endlessly then you know you've got the time and motivation to learn a bit of the language

i've been watching more stuff this year and pulled back from reading
i at least feel like i can understand a lot more by ear but i fear my word recognition by letter has gotten worse

for example it took me 2 tries to read 燃焼 right despite it being a simple word

It’s difficult to predict a specific year when English might surpass 50% of the global population, as this would depend on many factors, including demographic trends, language policies, and geopolitical changes. However, based on current trends, it seems highly unlikely to occur in the foreseeable future.

If we were to make a rough estimate, considering:

The current global population is around 8 billion, with English speakers (native + non-native) totaling approximately 2 billion.

The global population is projected to reach around 9.8 billion by 2050, and English is expected to grow, primarily through non-native speakers.

Even with continued growth, English would need an extraordinary increase in both native and non-native speakers to exceed 5 billion people (50% of the global population).


Taking these factors into account, it seems that English reaching 50% of the global population could still be a few centuries away, likely not before the year 2100, and perhaps even beyond that depending on how language dynamics evolve.

In short, while it’s a possibility in the very distant future, it’s unlikely to happen within the next 80–100 years.

After finishing the Fate route for the first time in Japanese (with more repeated lookups and blatantly skipping sentences than I'd like to admit), I think I understand why I didn't like the other routes back when I read them.

A large part of the appeal is both the mystery aspect of the dangerous nature of mages and servants and the juxtaposition between modern school life and being a badass mage.

The former gets resolved in the Fate route.
You have a good impression about who everyone is, what their deal is, the rough extend of their power etc.
When you get to the other routes, the emphasis shifts from the setting as a whole to specific characters, e.g. "Who is Archer ACTUALLY?" "Who is Gilgamesh ACTUALLY?" "What's Kirei's deal?"

The latter is more self-explanatory, you get used to the mages and they're not contrasted enough with ordinary people to appear as cool, because the plot takes precedent.

I would have liked FSN much more if it were a bittersweet story of 10 or so high school kids battling each other and using their servants like Pokemon.
That scene with Tohsaka on the rooftops suggested that that was what we were going to get, just high school kids fighting each other and maybe eventually coming to terms with the idea that maybe the holy grail is the friends that we've made along the way.

I feel like part of the reason that Zouken gets introduced in Heaven's Feel is to shake up the formula. The True Assassin also feels extremely strange compared to nearly every other Servant due to how Zouken summons him. It's weird looking back, but it's basically a monster until it eats Lancer's heart
I think Nasu ended up retconning it, but it was mentioned that one of the reasons that True Assassin is so loyal is that it ate Lancer's heart, so it makes you wonder if his personality would have been different had he attacked another Servant instead.

i'm scared of making the game harder to render accidentally. this laptop wasn't made for gaming, i was playing Kuon on a ps2 emulator and it had some slowdown.

i do want the scanlines though...

blur or scanlines are accomplished via extra work
integer scaling should be a very trivial task compared to both

you need to get to a point where you know the kun and on readings of kanji as they are standardized by the table of joyo kanji - especially in a case like that where there's basically only one option. irregular readings like 火傷 are a different story. how you get there is up to you, just get there.

why is 青臭い used in this sentence. if im reaching, i can maybe see the connection to 'grass' smelling then laterally link that idea to a 'raw' or 'immature' scent. but i think im doing too much and theres a simpler answer. also, no its not actually 生臭い; it was written as 青臭い

that makes the "V-" sound. Japanese imported the "V" sound. ヴィ. try typing Vi in your thing.
>>
>>48263758
brother, the question im asking is why specifically the use of 青臭い instead of something else. aokusai is pretty specific and not related to the smell of cum. is the author trying to relate smell to the sensation of freshly cut grass or something. or does he mean it literally? i don't know. the word itself is so specific, i'm confused as to why he used it.
>>
>>48263786
thanks anon, just looked it up, basically a bunch of loan sounds then?
while we're at it, i have a sentence with a bunch of small tsu characters after it. like "ken da" and two small tsu after it. is it something like a person dragging the last wovel or something?

i'm a schizo. i'll give you the rundown. the spirits do a lot of stuff to maintain life. your memories (きおく)are what's required for the learning process to work. the spirits mantain that memory, fetching kioku for you when necessary.

science will not explain this as easily as i have. the spirits do everything to help you live life. you shouldn't have to worry about it, but the state of society makes me think otherwise..

holy crap, ever since starting to learn japanese, I've been wrapping my head trying to remember an old funny video about replying to everything with the famous へえええ
Today I've finally found it again, and sure enough it has erased from youtube for quite some time
the video was titled
> Speak fluent japanese without saying a word
by Ken Tanaka, and its a series of three
https://www.dailymotion.com/video/x43c9sv

some contextual clue, reddit post mentioning them,
remembering these has been quite a trip to memory lane, including some early age JP youtubers that apparently are still active

as a side quest, anyone has that series of learning *fucking* japanese

あはれ、我が愚かさと無力の身、思ひ知るに堪へず。これまで歩みし道、何ゆゑにと問いつつも、答ふる声なく、ただ静けさのみ聞ゆ。世に生まれしは徒らなり。何事も為すこと能はず、ただ悩みの海に漂ふのみぞ。

胸のうちにて繰り返される争ひ、尽くることを知らず。夜は暗く、朝は遠し。己が浅ましき姿に直面するたび、胸の奥にある小さき希望すら影と化しぬ。人の役に立たざる身、何のために在らむ。我が生、空しき葉の如く、吹き行く風に消え去るべし。

この世の理を悟らむと努むれども、力及ばざるは悔しきかな。友よ、師よ、許し給へ。多くの教へを受けながら、それに報ゆること叶はざりき。かく愚かなる者に期待を寄せ給ひしこと、恥ぢ入りて申すべき言葉もなし。

花は咲きて散り、波は寄せて返る。されど、我が戦ひし心の嵐、静まることなし。生きるは戦ひ、休むは夢のみ。我が未熟さにて、敗北の終りを迎ふる外なし。

願はくは、友よ、御身を大切に。己が生を誇りとし、歩み続け給へ。我れ、無力の身ながら、あの岸辺にて君の安寧を祈らむ。これを我が最後の願ひとせむ

さらば、果てなき夜より目覚めんとす。

i have just completed Part 1 of Final Fantasy 7 (Midgar)

this game's vocab is not that scary. 34 hours of playtime. my mining deck is now at 8,000 cards. that's more than the core 5k.

i had to use yomitan a lot, but i understood a lot. i made some nihongo gains...now it's a question if i continue ff7 now, or try something else in the meantime.

i'm interested in trying some playstation 2 visual novels...i heard there's a ton.

返り点 are such an insignificant part of actually reading 漢文 that if I had to try and explain the rules of the higher-order marks I would probably remember wrong and mess it up (because I never use them).

Actual 漢文 is 白文, with no marks, and you just read and understand it as it is. That's how you get good at 漢文, is knowing the Chinese grammar and just reading the Chinese.

Eventually, you don't even 書き下す anymore

They shouldn't even teach 返り点 as part of the subject desu, it gives false impressions

The conspiracy theory scene in Japan is 10x crazier than in the US. The youtube algorithm doesn't ban the Japanese equivalent words that are banned in the US, so saying things that would get you arrested in Germany gains hundreds of thousands of views in a matter of days in Japan.

I am trying to transcribe and transcribe an old television interview but because the person being interviewed has a racing helmet on it's more difficult to make him out.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LSyykAuAKrE&t=1809s
I ended up getting something along the lines of
>頑張ってかんそうして追い上げたいと思います (I think I’ll just do my best to feel things out and try to catch up)
and then
>今度色んな自分で試してかんそうしたいと思います (I’d like to try and think about the things I can do myself.)

I tried typing out kansou in regular kana first but that makes much more sense.
Would "I think I'll do my best just to try and get to the finish" and "I'd like to try to do whatever I can to finish the race" be better translations? I think I hear "今度色んな" but it's very tough to make out because of the muffling combined with the interview back and forth
