The joke is that 金玉 means balls in Japanese. They even give you two of them to drive the joke home, quite funny. This is entirely lost in the English translation.>>48751369Cute girl! 1000x better than shota shit ty

>>48751441that says 嘘
>と成る>に成る1) can you feel the difference?2) can you articulate what the difference is?
>>487515781. I think so2. I don't think so. Off the top of my head a few different cases come to mind. Like 「〇〇となると」 is kind of like theenglish phrase when it comes to.... Like 彼は数学となると詰んでること割とある. But now that I type this out I realize if I saw that exact same sentence with に instead it would basically feel like the same meaning to me. It might just be a tendency for people to default to one or the other for different types of phrases. There are also the cases when と and に in a phrase feel roughly equally common and I think actually there is some overlap bordering on interchangeability here. For instance in 居候のみとなる vs 居候のみになる the difference feels really faint to me and I don't even know how to try to describe it. The more I analyze it the less confident I am so this is a pretty good question you've posed I think. Maybe they are just the same other than the way they are used...which sounds dumb. Would be cool if someone who gets it a little better might have somethign to add
>>48751684I suddenly just thought of an actual good example of where you'd definitely use one over the otherExplaining the meaning of something with a quote「〇〇」となっています. Like explaining the meaning of an English phrase in Japanese for example
select only 1 per sentence
>>487518521. に2.と3.に4.どっちもいける?強いて言えば「と」5.に6.に7.に8.に9.に10.に11.に12.に13.に14.に15.に16.に17.とI feel like both work for a lot of them.., not just 4 where I mentioned it. For example in 17. と just feels slightly stronger than に。Also something related to 7 I noticed when googling..I think in 7's case it's に but if you were to say how much of a component makes up a thing you'd say と. Like 12ヶ月は1年となる・7日間は1週となる
>>48751395the joke is that sneeds feed and seed was formerly chucks
Has anyone tried the strategy of, if you talk to yourself a lot, speaking to yourself in Japanese Seems like a stress free way to try turning thoughts into words and lets you realize where your vocabulary is lacking

is there a reason to use jitendex through yomichan instead of through goldendict
>>48752227here's the pdf in case you want ithttps://petit.lib.yamaguchi-u.ac.jp/21611/files/154772
>>48752297also, does anyone have the Anonymous Core 5000 deck? the MEGA link's down
>>48752297yomichan is for hoveringi use ebwin with j-j dictionaries but i assume goldendict is the same thing
>>48752349for hovering, soukayou have to select words/put them in your clipboard for GoldenDict's popup function. It's triggered by default by hitting Ctrl+C C, so the usual copy shortcut but hitting C twice. Not sure if that's better/worse than ebwin.GoldenDict is a generally useful dictionary though. See picrel.

>>48752708I will see if I can die on this hill. I think it's possible.

>>48752727no idea, i just feel them
>>48752744To be fair I could set up the gtk2 qt6 theme engine. But most of the qt6 applications I use are through flatpak so that doesn't even work. Mostly I decided to start with all this because CJK was broken.
>>48752744why do you care so much about the theme? are you by any chance on the spectrum?
he's literally me
>>48752779If I can get my system to look homogenous and the libraries allow it I try to make some effort to get that to work. I get that it seems like a silly effort but it would be kind of a waste not to. Windows/Mac get this for free, Linux tends not to for limitations borne out of maintainers'/packagers' laziness.I don't strive to do this 100% of the time either because it can really be a burden but I hope you get where I'm coming from. I used to be far more insistent about this btw
>>48752779i mean xe's an unironic linux user
>>48752713just go outside
>>48752796What did I do to deserve neopronouns? I get that there used to be facilities built just to remove and house patients like me away from society, and that even then most of us didn’t exhibit this kind of deluded and anti social behavior, but they don't exist anymore. I should be able to get the Qt theme working with whatever's using Qt on my system with no problem. And yet for some nonsense reasons this isn't the case. I am disappointed.
>>48752794you shouldn't use many graphical interfaces to begin with, so i think you're being autistic in the wrong direction>>48752796lin*x is great. cute and snappy
if you know what qt6 is then you never gonna make itand i'm saying this as somebody daily-driving linux
well?
shove her back into the sea
>>48752811ncurses is great and all but high quality graphical applications are hard to pass up. And seeing them toasted by subpar toolkits like GTK3/4 is a tragedy. I used a lot more cli/tui programs in the past.>>48752813NGMI in what sense anyway>>48752823do this
>>48752826Like I feel the whole cli/tui obsession is a way to contain autists that would otherwise care about lightweight/customizable gui programs. It keeps the gui space more in the hands of corporate/neurotypical/bloat-agnostic influence.
>>48752744also how the fuck can you not get your fonts working? i just installed them and they worked fine>>48752819give her a blanket and hot tea
>>48752869I installed them and they worked fine, too. But on everything native, not flatpak. Maybe I'm doing something wrong
flatpaks are justice
it's a misnomer since flatpaks are anything but small
>>48752874maybe try not installing from flatpak?
small body, flat chest
>>48752895Yea, that's what I'm trying to do. It's running but I can't go into some menus due to what I think is a change in newer python/pyqt5. I'll try a fix I just found

no idea what you said but youre probably retarded
How long doers it take to get to the point of naturally understanding characters immediately, like looking at English, instead of having to stop and look for a second?
about 10 years
mah its at lest 11
>>48753721Reading very fast takes not terribly long, getting fast comes faster than you expect I think. But reading as instantly as you read English will probably take a very long time.It's a combination of recognizing the characters and parsing words out of chunks of hiragana, chunks of kanji etc.Thank you for coming and have a nice day <- not only is your brain registering each word long before checking each of the characters, but you're so comfortable with the phrasing that you're basically flash reading the entire sentence. Words you know circumventing the need to check the individual characters, and more comfort with phrases means your brain is predicting what the next word will be before you get there so instead of looking athe word then deciding what it is, your brain is already predictin gwhat it is and just has to roughly scan it to verify it's what it thinks it is, only stopping if the text is different from its predictions. So the effects of building up experience both from reading and listening to Japanese will compound more than you might expect. But you just won't be quite as instantaneous as you are with English even after a few years. You'll be able to read faster than speaking speed in a couple years in my experience
>>48753690tae kim is a lower beginner material thopeople in japanese learning communities tend to underestimate just how much there is to learnjust look at nora calling himself upper beginner despite the fact he just started and would probably fail the n4>>48753721dumb question
>>48752663>>48752713If you live in Japan but can’t study the language for 10 minutes without having a meltdown then you don’t even deserve to live.

Trying to read a book in this language makes me feel like a fucking retard sometimes
>>48753927It interacts with ご存じ, which in example two technically looks completely like a 体言, but behaves like a verb because it's technically an irregular 尊敬語 verb. The ご●です form is technically regular but ご存知だ appears like it's treated as its own thing.Hence a だ verb - because it's just a verb but conjugates like a noun.

>>48754208that's not gonna make you even close to a native in two years. it'll be a good start though
>>48754220i would not be surprised if it actually got the word "nuke" associated with learning japanese by training on djt threads
>>48754208is 4chan one of the sacrifices you're supposed to make?

welp, dont have anything better to do anyways. even if its pointless might as well try.

>>48754739Isn't shadowing the best for raw pronunciation correction?
Sucks to be you. My native language has similar pronunciation to Japanese, so I get a nice accent for free. Native English speakers are the worst. You will never be able to speak clean Japanese.

>>48755054coping with what
i think that reading is just like one of those things that you can really ruin for yourself with entertainment saturation. like watching a stream and playing a game and listening to music and being in a discord call at once will literally just shred your mind to pieces and make it incapable of enjoying reading.
that will only fry your brain if you have adhd

The contexts I remember 天地開闢 from are a planet which was primitive when spacefaring races encountered them referring to their mythology and older pre-galactic imperial assimilation calendar, and the other times is when the Japanese write about pre-Christian pagan EuropeansIn my experience it seems uncommon

>>48755771im not saying its invalid i just have no idea what the point isis the point that you could learn faster using other methods? that it is essentially useless?

>>48755799its not my job to spoonfeed you the implications of the deck being shit but i will say its not just that you learn slower from it but you also learn worse and learn less
>>48755813thats cool but ive made progress and i dont really care about writing much i just want a basic level of being able to write which i think this deck can definitely be a decent start to atttainingso someone seething about it and adding nothing to the conversation is just weird to me
>>48755833thats because you are an autistic retardautistic because you cant read tone at all which is why you think im seething when im just rolling my eyes and a retard because you dont get that i am not "adding" to the conversation deliberately because i dont want to help you in any way

yosh
>>48756658you gotta play better games lil bro
>>48756658you shouldnt play these yet if you cant even read 合図
>>48756673i'm almost done with '83>>48756684these have no kanji so they are easier
>>48754739>correct your pronunciationFor some reason singing works best for me when it comes to pronunciation practice. Belt your lungs out to your favourite songs.
>>48756353Which manga is this? Are all the pages at this level?
>>48756688I can't play game with only hiragana and katakana
>>48756772skill issue
>>48756782nta but if you cant even read 合図 theres basically no chance you are actually understanding half the words in an all kana old pc game
>>48756873it's easier to lookup katakana than kanji, not sure why you're coping here. also japanese is a lot easier in katakana games because they are older
>>48756891how am i coping lolim just speaking from my own experience of reading all kana games as a beginner
>>48756909oh yeah, where's your vocaroo big shot
>>48756919i streamed the other day
>>48756909guess you should've read more kana games because this is way easier than and pc-98 vn with knaji
knaji
Is it normal to feel a bit aimless around the one year mark? Sort of just feels like “What now?” “Just listen and read and get more vocab for a few more years”Wish I had a more structured timeline or study approach than simply “Do more”
>>48756999Try and see how you feel about writing yourself.
>>48756353sesbian lex
cute
>>48756999>“Just listen and read and get more vocab for a few more years*decades
>>48756999because of the vastness of the subject its kind of aimless by nature
>>48756999It's up to what you want to do through the language.
>>48757033Linus?>>48757042meanie ;(
>>48757132oh the games over already? nice now you can move on to a real game
>>48757132now hit random on vndb
>>48757172>vnsewwww
>>48757172>>48757159no i'm playing this gem now. technically the famicom version is from 88 but the original is from 84 so i'll take it>>48757180actually they are called ADV, vns is a western psyop term

>>48757180dont yuck someone elses yumshits aside i dunno do whatever>>48757187>no i'm playing this gem now. technically the famicom version is from 88 but the original is from 84 so i'll take itmy idol, my hero, my role model>actually they are called ADV, vns is a western psyop termtrue
>>48757187why couldnt you have played a jinguji saburo game instead
>>48757224a what
>>48757224too soon, though i might not play these. definitely gonna slop famicom detective clubs and MAYBE J.B. Harold games tho
>>48757237whats with these autistic rules? jesus i thought nora was bad with the decade autism
fuck, almost forgot to read the manual before playing>>48757250what's autist about going through jp gaming history in order?
>>48755408TITLE PLEASE
>>48757271basically keeps you from enjoying the best media
crazy how you can just randomly say IRU and nobody could tell if you mean that something is required or that someone is there
>>48757284well i've read the best media 83 had to offer, now i'm moving to the best media of 84. as long as i'm reading japanese it counts as learning so it's ok. also i wanna read like ~5 best vinnies per year, and everything pre-92 is 1 hour long on average so i should reach actual visual novels (as in shizuku) relatively fasti'm also reading muramasa in english
>>48757296crazy how you can just randomly say gaze and nobody could tell if you mean that something is looked at steadily or if there are homosexuals
>>48757091>>48757126Yeah these are fair points. I’m mostly doing it as an extension of hobbies I already have anyway, anime, manga, LNs, talking to Japanese fans of stuff, untranslated Seiyuu content, eventually travelingSo I guess by the nature of this I’ll learn it at the rate I need it, not like there’s a deadline or it’s for a career just personal use
>one episode takes me 3 hoursam i gmi with this approach?
>>48757475thats pretty fast for a total beginnerunless youre not mining of course then its not fast at all lol
>>48757479i don't mine i try to go over each sentence and understand it, if i can't i use chatgpt get help
>>48757494fair enough
LET'S GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>48757544WOAH
>>48757494is chatgpt good enough now doesnt is still make mistakes?
>>48757561you can tell when its answers aren't helpful so you just ignore those and move on
so always
stahp :c
>>48757561it cant really explain grammar all that well but its translation and parsing are pretty goodit also can break under scrutiny so having a conversation with it is pointless
>>48757544kusogekino
is there a single one of those shitty vns that doesnt make you go blind
>>48757012Not writing, but there is a jap VN out there that has a full script included with the purchase and no eng release (indie dev) was considering doing some sort of half personal half MTL translation of it but they may be shit, but it’d be a fun project at least
>>48757864name?
>>48757864Translation is not strictly writing but it's very close. I'd say go for it!
>>48757716gotta wait until pc-98 comes out
>you should read eroge it will keep you engaged and plenty of people use them to learn>don’t get turned on by acts of sex so I don’t careUh damn, does anyone know of any OCR that’s not super shit for reading manga? (Already reading actual novels just wanted something fun on the side)
>>48757943anon its been 42 years...
>>48757874I can link it but it’s a fetish VN that won’t interest you>>48757896Thanks. I’ll do my best to just rawdog it but will for sure have to double check at the very least with MTL
>>48757964gross get help my friend
>>48757966Don't do him dirty like that...>>48757964Ganbare anon. Have fun.
this looks a little better i guess
>>48757970im not doing him anything the mans plenty dirty as it is
>>48757996kek
>>48758010you got a point there>>48757996I thought she was getting facial'd
>>48758010That’s trueVery true
>>48757996McSneed?...
>>48756891I can read normal story when it's combination of kanji, hiragana and katakana. But throw me an all-hiragana/katakana and I would spend half an hour to read a passage because I couldn't figure out which is which.reading with a page full of furigana is not fun either, it's annoying >>48757271. Part of why I don't like reading shounen manga.
>>48758060skill issue
>>48758075kek
>>48758060Now that you mention it I wonder if there's furigana-wiped editions of manga.
>>48758190fina my sister?
why are the options in english
>>48758291But was the senpai-senpai worth it?
>>48758295>meaning word filtered to oblivionxddddddddddddddddI meant KAZOKU.
>>48758291but was the senpai-kazoku worth it?

baaaaaaased
>>48759029instant coffee bE SO GOOd in a hurry
>>48756723あくまであまい私の彼女Yeah it's pretty simple so far
nora heretook a n4 practice exam on nihongo master, got 60%...well, i got 11 months left to fix it upnow that it's the weekend, should i stream dothack?
>>48751349When I first started with the 2k/6k deck, the intervals between reviews made sense. But now that I'm 1700 in I get wild intervals like pic rel. I hit hard so that It'd only take half a year for it to come back. Any advice? I set it up based on the guide here: https://djtguide.neocities.org/anki
>>48759817yikes
>>48759876taking anything less than n2 is dumb and a waste of money
even n1 doesnt guarantee that the person can speak japanese at all let alone understand itthe reading section is easy and gives around twice as much time as a below average native would needthe listening section is unnatural cleanly recorded audio + the whole test is multiple choice and you dont even need that many points to pass
i thought the reading section was harder cuz i dont know the chingchongs

>>48760110>>48760110>>48760110
>>48759920click easy, you will see that word and its components a billion times just readingthe point of spaced repetition is the spacing, it should be burned into your brain well enough at that point
