who else having trouble transitioning to monolingual?

why doesnt anyone talk about the importance of chunking to make reading more comprehensible thats one of the major things beginner readers struggle with
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j2SYMdBq89s

>>23994560
from zerolingual?

>>23994560
yeah ive just been forcing myself to read tons of jap definitions for awhile now and lately i even feel like ive gotten good at reading them even without knowing all the words but it might be dunning kruger so imma be careful

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tc5PKuQF1OY

>>23994620
huh? isnt monolingual transition when your supposed to forgot your other languages

Any good site to pratice kanji writing?

How do you know when you're intermediate?

>>23995057
Doesnt matter too vague of a question just keep watching anime

when you see a noob asking some dumb shit and all you can think is https://streamable.com/o906xf

when do i start my mining deck

once you finished your premade deck

>>23995057
after you've spent 1000 hours reading comprehensibly
>>23995320
after you've spent 200 hours reading comprehensibly

is it recommended to do multiple decks at once as a beginner?

acquired あわよくば

>>23995442
if by multiple decks you mean premade ones i definitely wouldnt
doing a 'core' deck and then your own one for mining words is fine

on topic questions is trolling?

>>23995558
as annoying as some beginner questions are they're better than useless e-celeb discussions.

>>23995558
yes, fuck actual on topic questions!
bring on the e-celeb shit!

might fuck around and put on a trip so the anons will all suck my dick even though i can barely read basic sentences

yes it is ok to take multiple dicks as a beginner

I was finally able to read my first manga chapter today in under just 8 hours. A new personal record since It was practically taking me 12-16 per chapter just a month ago. Feeling good broskies.

>>23995664

if you wanna see what these threads would look like without such djt staples like matt nuke anime godfather and karbin then go on the /int/ djt and gain a newfound appreciation for jamal and all hes done for these threads

int is better than this shithole

i've been hopping between jp and int for years

>>23995664
thats crazy

i'm just going to leave DJT again if everyone else is *nglish teachers go die in a hole you're no better than niggers blacking white women in the west

>>23995706
crazy good!

if i watch anime and skip the op i get bored of it quicker than if i listen to the op and let it get me pumped idc if im losing immersion time listening to inferior forms of input i just need to enjoy what im putting myself through

int is way more cancerous because even though this thread is filled with shitposting at least it doesn't terminally cripple your japanese

>>23995673

you stand in the way of anki altogether just because it wasn't a thing back in your day even though it has clearly worked pretty well for people like ciaran

sooner than give anyone any genuine advice you prefer to just spout the same stupid memes over and over again

i've never seen you earnestly try to help a beginner here, usually you just mock them for e-peen

>>23996395
and how did he get to the point where he knew japanese? he had a huge base of drilled grammar and vocabulary from anki

nobody who knew japanese already would do the core 2k/6k deck, it would be a total waste of time

i doubt anyone good at japanese would see any value in doing the dojg deck as well

>>23996656
dont care

Is there a way to skip the writing, reading and speaking part of the process of learning japanese and only focus in the hearing and comprehension? And if that's possible how can I achive that?

>>23996647
Is that a cum stain from reading too many Romeo-sama 名言s or just a plain old piss stain?

agf himself is the living proof

I have been studying Japanese for roughly two and a half years at school (I am in year 10, aus schools) and I have recently felt like the stuff i'm learning is easy but the things I see on youtube and on the internet are just completely different to the things I know.

Granted, there is a lot of hard and complex content that can be found online, and I can understand some parts but sometimes I feel as though I haven't learnt anything. Definitely not enough to understand an idea of a conversation.

So I did my research, expanded my knowledge, learn't a fair heap of stuff but still feel as though I am getting nowhere. I then started a duolingo account (i know i know, it's not reliable) , tried listening to podcasts and I still feel like I am not making any progress.

I truly don't expect to become fluent in weeks or anything like that, I just wished I could understand things more and have conversations with people in Japanese. I am definitely not trying to rush to fluency or get really good really quick. I just feel as though I don't know what to do to get better.

Is anyone feeling the same way or has been in this position before? What can I do to get better?

>>23997671
>especially when they change due to being put next to other kanji
? if you are doing individual kanji study stop and do words instead
>>23997677
be depressed for 10 straight years until ur mind gets sick of it and numbs u to everything as a cope

>>23997697

>>23997991
yea might read some porn about her now im interested

anime girls are beautiful and real life girls are beautiful

>>23998085
gotta agree with this

yeah i just dont recognize the kanji individually sometimes im my reviews, im sure rtk would have helped a little but i already strayed too far from that path

>>23998245
the keyword here is "after." not before, not during, but you learn japanese after

yeah and you learn english after you memorize the alphabet
thats why the real english dekirus skip that part and just grab a book and feel it out, knowing your abcs is for faggots

>>23998383
english isn't japanese

almost got conned into doing rtk when i posted on /r/learnjapanese 2 years ago but even then i could tell it was retarded and that saying something lmao

>>23998501
thx bro. also never knew u could use 拉致 as a verb in that way

i bet ur ass is still attached though

>>23998412
uh youre right but rtk doesnt make you speak japanese checkmate

ok imma call the feds on this thread cause noone here fucking knows any japanese

dang i just read it as 拉致される

>>23998604
"wish i didnt become"

>>23998604
if i hadn't become, would have been nice.
"wish i wasnt a fuckin journalist this shit sucks"

You just don't understand the point lol. The whole point of doing rrtk or rtk(I dont advise doing 2k) is to create a memory implant of the kanji in your head. So when you learn the reading, it'll stick and you wont forget it since you've already seen and recognize the kanjis

knowing nuke lurks these corners warms my heart

I really wish I had a cute imouto god why is life so kuyashii

Only people born and raised in Japan can know Japanese. That's my ketsuron and jijutsu.

to be honest matt has spend less time en nihongo than jamal but got better results

fucked dopamine anon update
ate one whole manga yesterday in one sitting

jamal has read more than matt and is generally a more pleasant person and can speak japanese fine so i think that might be better than matt who is very unpleasant and sounds a little more like a japanese person (Relatively speaking) when he talks

how's the irc

>>23999882
i would link my gayjin goes vr chat supercut, but my cookies got nuked

irc died cuz no one joined. could have been something but ppl would rather use discord which some how has over 500 ppl in it while there is only a tiny fraction of that actually posting in the threads

>>23999882

"What's the best type of content to use?"

Anything you're interested in.
There's no 'learning phase' and 'fun phase' here.
No 'studying' content and 'reward' content.
It's all just content.

>>24000954

>>24000977
did it not see the mistake

i'm doing the 3K core that was recommended on the animecards guide and watching anime with japanese subtitles,but i have to pause the video and look pretty much every word using yomichan so a 24min episode takes me like a hour to watch.

is this a normal part of the process? there's some way to speed it up?

glad i got through all my studying content and can enjoy reward content now

>>24000994
yes this is normal
the way to speed it up is to just stop caring after you get tired of looking shit up
maybe have one show where you have jp subtitles and autistically check everything and another show that you just kinda watch and see what happens

>>24000994
listening to quiztard is definitely not normal, some may say ungodly. along the lines of pausing, it really is a habit that you should break. i think most people start doing that

i've been doing core 6k for a while and got up to halfway recently
do i just drop it and start mining

"Fluent" is a confusing word because it's construction mostly implies a connection to output.
But what's going on behind that?

I'll tell you that being able to think in the language naturally is something that comes from understanding alone, not output ability.

wtf thats crazy

Your "impossible" is nothing but a collected illusion made up of things you've given up on.

You waiting for someone else to do the impossible /for/ you?

>>24002520
what "setup"?
i literally just went on the fluentcards site for the first time and dropped a file into it

Ok, so I've been studying Japanese for over two years, at least half an hour per day, missing only a few days. Normally, people would almost be fluent within that span of time, but I can't even understand N5 listening practices.

I feel like the sources I've been using were wrong. These were the ones I used :

Duolingo for Kana, but then I heard Duolingo was really bad, so I dropped it.

JapanesePod101 for basic sentences, but then I was told that was bad.

I read Genki 1, but it was information I had already seen with Duolingo.

I tried Memrise, and that didn't work.

I bought Busuu one week ago, but their courses go from super easy in the A1 stage to almost impossible from A2 and on.

So right now I'm using Anki, because apparently that works for vocab, WaniKani for Kanji, and Tae Kim's guide for Grammar. I've done this for over 2 months and I've seen no improvement whatsoever.

i went to a strip club once cause my friends wanted to and it literally felt like i was looking at porn on a really high res monitor, worst dissociative episode ive ever had. didnt feel any sort of arousal or lust of course that goes without saying.

>>24002874
the way this site is written makes it impossible to get any information out of this.
why doesn't she fucking tell me what it does before throwing 500 conjugations at me?
also this still doesn't explain tosareshi

if something isn't liked by anyone, can it still be good?

>>24002966
Are you trying to assess whether you're good or not?

i'm not liked by anyone but i'm a good person

>>23998412
why do you need to frontload isolated characters with silly stories when you could frontload actual words and how to read them and what they mean? the latter is way more useful for when you are getting input. RTK claims it'll stop you from confusing kanji with eachother but so will learning words then reading them in contexts where only the right kanji makes sense anyway.

something with causative suru? is my best guess

Should I ditch japanese-english dictionary and just start using japanese-japanese instead?

Are online japanese learners generally just brainlets? This shit is much better than tae kim.

once again the case of the person using the word brainlet being the stupidest person in the thread. it's basically a law at this point

you guys are missing out on some seriously good life advice.

get in now!!! https://mibbit.com/#dailyjapanesethread@irc.rizon.net

>>24003678
Stop posting that. No one cares.

>>24003688
shut da F up

>>24003717
here's an active user for ya

>>24003724
Tbh it's not even that detailed. I took a 2-semester japanese course at uni because it was easy general credits and it's about the same. I just like how that guy explains everything. It's an easier read than something like tae kim, at least for me.

>>24003715
shut da F up

>>24003697
Imabi has too much fucking text to read, fuck that shit I'd rather do something less daunting

>>24003396
im a polyglot

>>24003764
And yet, you're here.

Just started learning Japanese. Should I use Taiken's Grammar Guide or Akubi?

>>24003779
i said shut da F up

read the guide in the OP

>>24003764
Idk, if you read through the articles relatively quickly, which is how you should learn grammar anyway, you can finish one in about 15 minutes.

>>24003796

It's in moments like these that I realise that behind every sad little post ITT there's a sad little person who took the time to read the thread and reply.
Myself included.

And then there's jamal.

What's better for acquisition:
ゲイAV or レズ?

>>24003783
Read imabi.

>>24003848
probably ゲイ they usually are more high iq than レズ

>>24003858
I thought Chikubi was better than Manabi

i like how you can follow literally anyone on twitter, like, it just feels weird that i can follow some random highschool girl.

Where can I find the Chinko Immersion Method Guide?

Is this worth buying? Please help
I don't have $200+ for a modern 電子辞書

https://www.amazon.co.uk/Japanese-English-Electronic-Casio-XD-SP4850-Handwriting/dp/B001DDIIRK/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=electronic+dictionary+japanese&qid=1590702700&sr=8-1

the absolute best method to learn japanese is: learn the really, really basic shit anywhere, it doesn't matter. browse through ixrec's guide really quickly to get a feel for verb conjugations and clause endings. and after that read carefully through imabi, all the while learning vocabulary and consuming content.

don't even bother disputing this method.

>>24003928
NO

>>24003928
lol

read 10k of leyline today

if I read through the entire imabi guide, will I wakaru nihongo?

>>24004021
no youll be even worse

>>24003991
My name's not Tobira Guy. It's https://youtu.be/grqEjSfVuBg

no. it doesn't matter what grammar guide you use to learn because you need to essentially deprogram yourself of the english translations you learned from in the first place to become fluent anyways. just get out of the beginner stage asap none of it matters in the end

>>24004036
it's too late, you can't stop me now anon. I just read the first page and am already better than jamal.

>>24004042
how do i do that? i'm doing like 4 decks rn, do i just mine? i feel like it's no different from passing shit through mtl

>>24004042
>deprogram yourself of the english translations you learned from in the first place
the fuck does that even mean? I learned english through immersion and didn't need to deprogram shit.

>>24004066
english!=nip

>>24004066
i don't think you learned english if you have trouble understanding what i said hate to break it to you

>>24004075
it's exactly like nip you moron. japanese is not magically different compared to all the other languages on the planet.

>>24004087
I understood it just fine, it's just bullshit. you don't need to deprogram yourself of anything, you just learn japanese like literally any other skill.

>>24004095
no moron, you probably came to english from an at least somewhat similar language
i'd say the same to someone who was learning korean or chinese

>>24004095
you don't know japanese

>>24004103
so what? going by meaning, japanese isn't that different either. if nip used the english alphabet, I could learn it at the same pace as english. verb conjugations, subject, object, predicate, nouns and verbs, the concepts are literally all the same.

>>24004108
nobody in this thread knows japanese.

>>24004095
you don't know english
you don't know japanese

>>24001038
>He believes that you think in X or Y language
Kek.

Recently I watched a Detective Conan episode, where an old Lady serves some slices of a melon and says "食べた、食べた！” obviously meaning, "eat, eat up!".

Though without a doubt 食べた is the past tense of 食べる and not the imperative or whatsoever.

I asked my native Japanese teacher, but she couldn't explain it either. Just that my interpretation is correct.

So I hope that maybe someone here can explain how this happens... is it some strange contraction or some dialect? I am at a loss, so any help would be appreciated.

>>24004126
my pronounciation may not be up to par, but when it comes to writing, there is literally no difference between me and a native speaker.

>>24004129
unless you're one of those people who think in pictures and concepts, who do apparently exist, you are thinking in language.

>>24004124
quite a few people here know japanese, you just aren't one of them. good luck with your grammar guides though

>>24004135
all rules are broken when they repeat it twice, its basically a meme at that point

>>24004087
this desu senpai
t esl

>>24004103
pre-modern japan had a lot more similarities with medieval europe than it did with hunter-gatherer societies in the new guinean highlands

>>24004144
if you're stroking your e-peen by hanging out in a thread supposedly dedicated to learning japanese 24/7, you don't actually know japanese. people like matt at least know how to fleece people out of their money by putting out shitty videos, so those people do have skills.

>>24004153
anon copied that text from reddit like the faggot he is. and there's apparently also some imabi article explaining why you can use the word that way.

>>24004135

>>24004159
can you do us a favor and learn english before posting in these threads. your posts are nonsensical

>>24004181
how pathetic do you have to be in order to pretend not to understand simple english? if it's so bad, please do point out my mistakes, sensei~

>>24004166
ok ye its pretty easy and there is so many things way harder, when i first heard tabetabe i dldnt think twice about it, pretty auto

wtf

>>24004208
it's simple to understand from context, obviously, but it's natural to wonder how and why the past tense of a word can be used this way.

>>24004243
whoa mister

some literally who that isn't permanently online, which is nice.

>>24004328
it means kill your self

>>24004360
he could be permanently online just not here tho

>>24004371
maybe. apparently he has a reddit account but isn't active at all there. I just like the concept of someone good at japanese, who makes great content, and who isn't constantly looking for people to suck their dick.

>>24004243
lol

>>24004396
why is he missing in action

>>24004383
funny you say that because the author of imabi is actually gay

>>24004401
even an actual faggot couldn't possible as gay as people like jamal or matt.

Crazy to think I’m at the end of 2 months of learning Japanese with the #MIApproach , can’t wait to see what the future holds. Can’t wait to film and show you all my 2 month update

>>24004401
HA
once again its proven that u need to be gay to know nihongo

>>24004135
Kind of like "I want that done yesterday!" in English, right?
