Ok nerds, how dekinai are you
>Your level
>How long you've been studying
>Your personalized study method

N3 reading level, N5 listening level.
6 months.
I grinded the first 200 words of core1k then started reading. After that I'd do maybe 10 new cards in anki a day when I first woke up then read the rest of the day. I neglected listening practice which is why it's worse than reading by a lot.

>>48646647
1. I'm heavily reliant on a dictionary still, but given a sentence where I'm familiar with all the words being used I usually won't have too much trouble. That said, I'm by no means fluent and still struggle with things.

2. I made a prior failed attempt at learning Japanese where I did some of Core2k, read Tae Kim and like an idiot tried to learn kanji by rote, but it was a pretty miserable experience so I quit took a long break after that. I came back to Japanese again in late July last year, I think, so for this current session at least I've been studying for about 14 months.

3. Sooner than re-read Tae Kim, I watched the first season of Let's Learn Japanese Basic then went straight into reading Flyable Heart from there. Since then I've read a bunch of other VNs, a few manga, and one LN volume (which I read the scan of, only for it to appear in HTML format in the DJT library shortly after I finished it). I had seriously neglected listening until recently so I've been making an effort lately to watch raw anime (so far sticking to rewatches of shows I've already seen), and I've also been watching Virtual YouTuber stuff as well for listening exposure.

Didn't do Anki at all until a few weeks ago when I picked it up in hopes of helping me remember the readings of words written in kanji (I have the meanings on the backs of my card as well but they only show up on hover and 99% of the time I don't need them). I've only been adding words I'm already familiar with so far (just to be on the safe side, I've been adding pretty much every word I know except for cases like 楽しい and 楽しむ where I will only add one of them), and I'm now up to 3200 words. Not sure yet what I'm going to do with the deck when I run out of familiar words to add.

Is the "learn kana in 1-2 hours" meme legit and I'm just retarded or is it purely for language autists?

>>48646757
i'm not exactly sure how many hours i spent, but yeah i learned hiragana in 1 day then katakana the next day since it was weekend. probably around 2 hours for each day sounds right. just gotta grind them either in anki or on that one website https://gohoneko.neocities.org/learn/kana

>>48646610
>Your level
don't know, don't give a shit. but I can read without too many lookups nowadays. Reading basic stuff (manga, 99% of video games, moeshit) goes by fast but anything actually hard (chuunige), it's snail pace
>How long you've been studying
I don't count time wasted on ankislopping so a year and a half
>Your personalized study method
VNs. The harder the VN is, the more I learn.

counter question: do you think you can tell whether or not it took someone a couple of days longer than average getting the alphabet down back in elementary? no? then why the fuck would you care? most of the people here can neither handwrite or ouput even after years of studying. no that's a bigger issue than looking back and saying, you know it took me like a week to learn hiragana. that shit doesn't matter whatsoever.

it does raise an interesting point tbqh, i havent done anything beyond consuming other than the odd dictionary lookup here and there for 4 years at this point so does that still count as "studying" strictly speaking?

if you could actually write most of the kanji that would imply you know more Japanese than most Japanese people.

related, when 女実況者s read text and struggle with kanji, do you guys think they're just pretending to be dumb for their audience, or are they actually illiterate?

the "natives never misread or flat out dont know a reading" meme was invented by people trying to piss queefster off but im sure some of the more retarded denizens itt actually believe it at this point

Is my understanding of this sentence, right?, なにしろそう思えるだけの収穫があった 。" At any rate the result is being able to think that"

>>48648087

収穫 refers to something in the previous context

>>48647650

Couldn't be the fact you've probably been studying ten times as long as he has. The fact he could read and in record time says a lot. He probably didn't care alot about conversating. People get good at what they want to do. He now has the vocab though so he could work on aquisition and shit on any of his "students" fluency speeds. He's pretty much shitting on a guy using his own methods too. He just didn't immerse as much.

once you move out of ur anki bubble you'll find that the spaced repetition when reading is way more effective because the sentence level and text level context changes in some way each time so u are actually internalizing the use case for a word in multiple contexts. after internalizing words this way when you see it again in a different context ur brain instantly and subconsciously eliminates similar words that it couldn't logically be from consideration before you even start actively recognizing it.

I've gone some reasonableish understanding of the common and basic topics, but since most of the junk i read is usually fantasy I've got a knowledge hole when it comes to stuff that a tourist would need and I don't even know what I should look for to fill it, any advice? Closest thing I could think up is watching some TV variety show that goes around touristy areas in japan and maybe something food related as well but its real hard finding TV show rips of this sort
Also jesus fuck I haven't posted here in ages why does the captcha timer run here as well there's like 2 posts per 12 hours on this board

what sort of situations are you actually concerned about? i was there 2 weeks ago and felt like i would have had no problems with anything even if i didnt know any japanese. google maps makes asking for directions and about train lines unnecessary. at restaurants and bars you can just point if need be. the only thing that really comes to mind is when you get a meal from a konbini and they ask you if you want it heated up and if you want chopsticks and a bag lol

>>48652494
Honestly I'm not completely sure myself, mostly since I don't 100% know what to expect (I went to a different country precisely once and a friend of mine handled most of the navigating since he was familiar with it all)
For the most part I guess being able to read signs and knowing food names. Having a precursory glance at locations I can go to while also reading and hearing it in japanese would be killing three birds with one stone as well

if you want to practice talking with someone then you should try to get a japanaese boyfriend online. failing that there is always italki and skypech

>>48652438
just look stuff up on your phone
thats what i do

bongta...

>>48652581
basically all the signs u need to be able to read have it written with the alphabet underneath. for food names just figure out what you want to try before you go and you can easily find restaurants on google maps near u wherever you are or use tabelog. you'll be surprised how little you need to actually interact with people to do anything in japan. especially in tokyo you basically have to go into bars and just insert urself into convos to ever even speak to anyone lol

check the verb its connected to and it will become clear

>>48653128
る-す [1] 【留守】 （名）スル

（１）主人や家人などの外出中，その家を守ること。るすい。「隣に―を頼む」
（２）外出して家にいないこと。「母は今―です」「しばらく日本を―にする」「居―」
（３）（多く「お留守になる」の形で）あることにのみ注意が向いて，別のことに気が回らないこと。「攻めるばかりで守りがお―になる」

What is the best way to explain this? Or do I just have to guess with context?

do see something strange with this japanese definition?

家を留守にする
to not be at home, leave the house unattended, be out of the house

留守中に
in s.o. absence

留守を頼む
ask s.o. to watch the house (while you're out)

留守を守る
watching the house (while s.o. is away)

お留守になる
to slack off (勉強がお留守になる slacking on on one's studies)

留守を預かる
same as 留守を守る pretty much

居留守を使う
pretend to not be at home, have s.o. else say you're out (while you're not)

留守番
watching over the house (again, while others are out), short for 留守番電話 answering machine

留守居 same as 留守番 but not answering machine

Do normalfags in Japan consider it disrespectful that otaku use "sensei" for mangaka, if that word is usually reserved for doctors and teachers etc.?

the truth is somewhere in the middle

What's the point of learning a language when AI just does it for you for free? It's so easy learning using AI as a teacher that I think it feels stupid doing it at all. It's like a "wait a minute, what's the point now".

anything decent on novelgame? lots of slop feels like

i'm following this underground idol and she only has like 5 fans and one of them is this massive pervert creep whose username is like saachan_no_omanko and he posts signed photos of saachan next to his onahole and dildos and shit and @s her and she never posts sexy photos or says anything sexual but she's basically forced to respond to him with mundane shit like チェキ届いたようで良かったです because he's one of her only fans and that's really hot to me

>>48653432
if you goal was never that of "understanding japanese" then yeah, you'll be able to read LITERALLY everything in MTL'd in english in a couple of years at most

>>48653441
cute she probably masturbates to his pics

>>48653443
My goal was understanding the true meaning. Reading the text directly. But I can literally instruct the AI to do exactly that, at any time of the day, for free. What's the point of the skill then? The only issue now is that you need to know how to input the text yourself, knowing the characters, when an OCR tool isn't reliable and available, but when that barrier is gone, there's no value to the skill anymore because everyone essentially will have it

>>48653450
>My goal was understanding the true meaning

that's not how it works kiddo

>>48653460
ask the ai what the true meaning only natives would get is

>>48653450
you simply cannot experience the true yamato spirit through the medium of english

>>48653471
i mean if you do that for every single thing then yeah, but in that case you wouldn't be reading a translation but more of a dissection of the japanese script

can chatgpt explain why なんですか without the が makes it really really informal japanese? everyone i ask just says "if you know japanese, you know what i'm talking about"

ai will NEVER be able to mimic a fraction of agf's power

>>48653505
>なんですか without the が
what does this even mean

>>48653526
if you know japanese, you know what it means

love reading hidden shit like this

I'll at least be 35. I need 5 YOE before I can get a decent job to move to Tokyo. Grim stuff.

assuming you asking the post just above
first you not be retarded and learn how to quote posts

I'm turning 38yo soon, a bit late I know but whatever, at least japanese girls seem to go easier on ojisans, also japanese hags are pretty good looking

I'm gonna be spending at least 1 year on language school there, but hopefully can land a decent job based on my experience later on

>5 YOE
the what?

also make a new thread soon, I got something important to ask

Reading VNs always make me feel like a retard, because i feel like i should understand this, but i don't , does と考えているみたいだ mean "it looks like Megumi thinks" or "I want to think"? And how do i know when is one or the other?

>>48653873
yeah, i substracted the dakuten

>>48653952
ok
>>48653974
>>48653974
>>48653974

>>48653967
just feel it, tho seriously its a bit abstract
I guess its meaning something like "want to see how it thinks"

>>48653967
usually, it's former but you can understand it as latter ;3

>>48653967
when みたい comes directly after a verb without a て connector or anything it's always the "seems like" one. you can't just put a something like 見たい directly after the dictionary form of a verb

VNs may seem appealing, but it's best to avoid them due to the fact that most VNs are proprietary. VNs require nonfree applications that can compromise your privacy and security. In contrast, alternatives like manga, anime, and light novels can be enjoyed using free software such as MPV for anime, NSxiv for manga, and crqt-ng for books. Nonfree software often acts like malware, exerting control over users and creating potential risks. Stick to media that respects your freedom and privacy. Remember, most visual novels should be avoided since they are proprietary!

>>48653813
Looking up stroke order of each character is retarded because if you know how to write at least a couple dozen kanjis with correct stroke order, you can correctly infer how to write any other character.
