I can learn it. I WILL learn it. And I will pass the JLPT N3. Just watch me.
>Dedicate years of your life learning something you have no practical use for:(
>>85449372sh-shut up! it's about passion! Besides, I'm sure Japan will come around and open up something for me by the time I reach N2.
>>85449372The practical use is talking to my future Japanese wife
>>85449386That's the spirit.>though I myself have no such delusions.
>>85449367dude whatever you do don't go to /djt/. Years ago when I was learning I thought it was helpful but now I pop in every few months to post something interesting I see and all the replies are >WHY DO YOU THINK THIS IS INTERESTING?????? NGMI>YOU SHOULD HAVE SEEN THIS 9999 TIMES BEFORE>LMAO LITTLE BROlike i passed n1 and i read physical books without needing a dictionary but it almost makes me feel demoralized. if i was still in the middle of learning it would make me wanna insta quit
>>85449407Always the way, innit? Be a fan of something, but absolutely DO NOT interact with the fan-base. Now, I'm going to go meditate.
>>85449367i dropped out of learning after n3 cause it was enough to do everything i wanted from japanese. it was nice
>>85449375you don't retain knowledge with passion, you really need a habit to make it stick or it will go away quickly
>>85449367r9k won't let me reply in moonThat said, ganbatte! There are a lot of interesting untranslated manga out there and you can probably read them with N3 and a dictionary
how to learn it without touching kanji? I'm too retarded to even remember radicals. I just wanna listen and understand what japs talking about. At least on basic level.
You've done your anki reviews today, right anon?
>>85449367Passing N3 just by getting familiar with the test format is easy. When you get to N2/N1 that's when shit gets real. I don't mean to discourage you tho. Continue with immersion, learning Japanese itself must be enjoyable for you so your efforts doesn't feel lost and wanted.
