開拓... settling in?

i read this and immediately felt it was used like 拓く

AYBABTUing :)
>>
>>48661180
In this context, "星を開く" (hoshi wo hiraku) can be interpreted as "opening the planet" or "unlocking the planet." It suggests that the Cetra, as a nomadic people, would travel to different parts of the planet, unlocking or discovering its potential, secrets, or power. The phrase conveys a sense of exploration and connecting with the world, as the Cetra are portrayed as being deeply attuned to the planet and its energies in Final Fantasy VII.

what's the なる here? the sentence seems to mean "if you mention my name, they'll offer their help" but なる is to become. mention my name and you'll become recepient of power? idk
>>
>>48661617
*dies*

"なる" is a highly versatile word in Japanese and can have various meanings depending on the context. In this particular sentence, "なる" is used to express the action of receiving help or cooperation from someone.

hope this helps

Hi, I'm retarded. I was wondering, where can I watch streams of Japanese dubs of Western content online for free? I'm looking for everything from autistic shows like Sonic Prime to movies such as Idiocracy. I've spent a few hours over the course of two days trying to find an answer but haven't had any luck.

Finished reading both Narcissu 1 and 2.
Going through it, I added every word I struggled with to an Anki deck and ended up with about 780, which is definitely humbling looking back on.
Next, I'm going to go read Sanoba Witch for something a little more lighthearted

>>48662167
That's fucking stupid, you already have pre existing kanji and letters for words Japan why do you have to take random fucking kanji and use it on unrelated words

that's why when you read you have to look up every single word
you never know when a word will have a completely different reading than you expected it to

多めで sounds like kansaiben to me

i still dont get the problem with providing guides
tatsumoto's stuff is pretty cash grabby but at the end of the day it's still better than no guide, no?
>>
>>48662322
good to know im not alone
>>
>>48662256
Ideally you should know the word by ear first and then see it and associate the kanji
>>
>>48662161
cuz it looks cool
>>
>一大事ですか?
should i interpret this as "something important?" or "one important thing?"
>>
is it an emergency?
>>
>>48662256
>ateji for when the characters don't really match the meaning (e.g. 多分, 沢山, 滅多に)
>jukujikun when the characters match the >meaning but the reading is unique (e.g. 明日(あす・あした), 流石(さすが), 大人(おとな)). some people call jukujikun ateji too
it's much easier for natives because they already know the words

bad advice is more harmful than nothing at all. just like duoshitguo
