no one asked for this but i decided to make it for fun anyway.

remember the vn core 1250? did you ever wonder what comes after those 1250 if the deck had extended beyond into infinity? no? well here is the answer anyway

https://mega.nz/file/rh0XCLKC#VAU3XzRXjZ9EZb6oX76WXtkQFIl8UC2w4Eze3jBRKfY

behold, the next 20,000 words after the most common 1250, complete with JMDICT definition and audio

>>25414885
not if you use them appropriately

It is of great importance

learn pitch accent

>>25415030
no i just couldn't take out the letters from the image and put them in another one since they were obscured

>>25415066

>>25415088

saw this one in my vinnie yesterday... now i am sad

>>25415066
jamal was right about japs

>>25415100
oh its actually pretty cool the way you cut it
makes it look like a 3d render

>>25415107
keep trying it's not that hard

ああぁ。。アタマがおかしくなっちゃう。。逝ぐぅぅぅぅ。。。。

>>25415101
lol i went to that festival w/ my exgf and got one of those. that festival is actually really lame cuz its just full of annoying loud american navy guys since its right next to the military base

>>25415174
ああぁ。。アナタ、ごめんね。。アタマが逝った

>tfw 15 days into anki and still haven’t read the grammar guide
When did you guys read it

>>25415140
you probably already have pitch accent in your native language or knew how to play an instrument before learning if you think it wasnt that hard

>>25415169
you really set yourself up for a roast here watch the hell out

>>25415210
heard it all before anyway

>>25415205
it takes less than two weeks to learn how to play an instrument

>>25415205
yeah i went to music school so i already had an ear lol, still not hard git gud

>>25415169
>exgf
>right next to the military base
did u get ntred by nuke

What's a good list of 四字熟語? I'm aware of things like https://www.edrdg.org/projects/yojijukugo.html (and other things you can find in a few minutes of English internet searches), but I need something a bit deeper. Books are fine if I can pirate them. Things that are Japanese only are fine, I guess, since I doubt I'll get anything else.

>>25415229
sounds like bullshit to me. discount that as being a factor then. either way if your brain isnt accustomed to the concept of distinguishing pitch it's not easy to acquire
>>25415241
see its confirmed people who say that are just bullshitters

>>25415204
just read it? why are you waiting

bruh aint no one ask or care about yall bucktoothed hoe gfs lmfaooo

>>25415204
i went back in time and had my mom play native material to me as a fetus

hes a language learning lover and doesnt plan on spending 10 years on japanese trying to sound native. speaking to japanese people who have bad english he realized he doesnt care as long as he can communicate. he just wants to be decent at outputting and have high level listening comprehension and then move on to other languages hes interested in like vietnamese and afrikaans. he reads the bible in afrikaans currently but doesnt have a huge interest in reading but he'd like to get into reading.

>>25414689
>probably
who do you think is pushing this tard card shit? he's making the threads and posts just as much as jamal, while simultaneously manning multiple discord accounts all to keep people talking about him and his bootleg oc donut steel sentence cards. without djt to shill this shit he would be just another data point to add to the 41%.

>>25415570
>learning a language only spoken in an african shithole that hates white people
lol

>>25415088
I fucking wish I could. I just realized it's shit and now that I've brought up to japanese people I'm working on it, they roast me at every opportunity. Never admit that you're aware your pitch accent is garbage. Just secretly improve it.

>>25415582

i can hear musical pitch well but i suck at pitch accent

>>25415672
この鈍牛め

>>25415672
you'd probably find it easy to acquire if you actually worked on it though. just do the yoga pitch accent deck and you'll probably be better than me in a month

is acquiring pitch easier when u know japanese

>>25415687
i doubt it makes a big difference you can either hear it or not

えろっ

>>25415693
i started studying pitch after hearing the word 決心 having read it "flat" up until that point in my head. i was like oh thats what pitch is
have you never had that sort of experience

>>25415672
just listen through that 20-minute dogen video where he tests you on pitch accent

dont wanna watch that video to find out i fuckin suck

>>25415777
if you suck, you suck. get rid of that fragile ego

>>25415757
no i couldn't even hear the difference between stuff like 雨 飴 until i heard about pitch from matt and dogen and then it took me months to be able to distinguish them reasonably well by focusing on it

If you use firefox get FURIGANIZE, makes everything so much easier

>>25415805
>I
shocking

>>25415760
i did that yoga pitch accent deck but i had word audio on front and then i would try to guess the pitch accent but i erased it after a week because i sucked at it

how was jamals stream (:wink:), quizmaster

>>25415839
that sounds like a really smart way of setting up the deck if thats your goal
shame it didnt work for you
maybe you need to learn an instrument first idk

you don't need to learn an instrument just play around on a piano for 2 seconds and you'll immediately understand pitch

>>25415886
whether you can understand it and whether you can hear it are different things

>>25415582
>bootleg oc donut steel sentence cards

Anyone know, is wanikani deck on ankiweb good? I want to start that one once i finish my current decks.

>>25416334
read that as とおへい until i saw the kanji
in my defence im really tired rn

>>25416334
old ass anime vibes
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NtJnix-9niI

>>25416348
it's wanikani so its flawed in that the radicals they use make no logical sense. and their stories are cringe. and you're stuck in a system that can not be expanded.
that being said. if you can somehow follow the order of radicals and kanjis and vocab they use it might not be so bad.

how many characters do i need to read a day at the 6 month mark if i know ~4k words

inb4 something about fun. language learning isn't about fun it's about willpower that burns out every month before you restock and keep going

>>25416348
use your own mnemonics and heisig's kanji primitives as components

>>25416403
enough to mine 25 words id say

>>25416403
this guy wants us to answer how many characters a day he should read lmao

>>25416403
genuinely ngmi

>>25416403
if you're serious then 100 kanji a day, man the fuck up and dig in

>>25416403
If something as learning a new language burns you out, you're clearly doing something wrong anon.

>>25416403
25,000 characters per day. no more no less

>>25416429
i live in my own filth because i'm burned out from taking out the trash

that guy's probably doing alright

>>25416403
why ask when you arent going to follow through pussy

>>25416403
also willpower is a myth

No but seriously, why bother learning when everything good has already gotten a translation?

>>25416452
for druggies like you maybe

>>25416398
Thanks anon, i guess i will try it and see how it goes. I don't expect much tho, but we'll see.
>>25416410
Thanks as well, i almost never trust mnemonics from other sources and come up with my own. Also, didn't know about Heisig, thanks for that as well.

>>25416452
willpower is genetic

if you don't have it you never will

>>25416476
dont exclusively work off rtk itll be useless, memorize some vocab together with the kanji you learn

>>25416452
>>25416480

>>25416403

i browse djt off of sheer willpower

>>25416554

>>25416501
Learning ton of new kanji isn't my main objective anyways, rn i'm mainly trying to fill my vocab with new words & phrases, and somewhat easy kanjis as well, i skip hard ones, above N3. But thank you for advice.

>>25416605

i like the feeling of fighting against something

トランプ games with friends satisfies that for me

>>25416806
if you think willpower is a thing, you can just pull that out as an excuse whenever you don't "feel like" doing something. "oh, my willpower's just run out! i'll do it tomorrow!"

posts that switch from eng to jp in the middle just look retarded and cringe

banana-sensei's best work is her short story called ミイラ which is just about two people fucking

just saw this image

didn't know the word ketei so I tried to OCR, of course if failed because OCR is full of fail and gay
but I knew sugiru and naruhodo, so I typed those and used yomochan to figure out
it felt so fucking epic I just had to tell my mom
she called me a smart boy

meditation obliterates the ego after a few thousand hours and you start to realize that everything and everyone around you, as well as the value you place in everything is an illusion. and then you face a sort of existential dread that freaks you out badly and you quit. this is called the dark night of the soul among meditators, co-opted from some christian shit. but yea meditation is proven to be bullshit in regards to how it affects a meaningful aspect of life that can be measured, e.g. in regards to iq, big 5 personality traits, etc.

>>25417990
I don’t get why people act like meditation is some conspiracy. It’s free and harmless. It’s like yoyo dieters who go “noooo you can’t just fast not eating actually makes you get fatter somehow you have to buy all these diet foods instead”

>>25418049

meditation tin foilers sound no different from rtk cultists

>>25417990
not placebo, it's healthy

when did this thread become so cancer

yotsuba isn't a meme though

very fake post

>>25418104
when u posted in it

>>25417211
he sucks for this lol

>>25418103
has no effect on health

>>25418086
i didn't say it was? try interpreting that apparently ambiguous sentence in a different way.

alright serious question
why do low iq people keep putting a ? after non questions? it's infuriating

>>25416057
dam matts ripped

>>25418041
what are you talking about?

>>25418087
but its a fact meditation is fake ass shit

>>25418129
anything that helps to reduce stress has positive effects

filtering meditation

>>25418147
that anon interpreted that sentence in a really stupid way and i was trying to communicate how dumbfounded i was by that stupidity.

>>25418153
pure pseudoscience, meditation is not behavioral therapy

>>25418063
exactly lol these guys will pay thousands to see a therapist and get pills that numb their brains but they won't sit down for 10 minutes and observe their mind its just silly

>>25418160
no

>>25418170
i dont care about whatever science there is for or against meditation it just seems like a common sense thing there should be ways to train your attention whether you want to call it meditation or not

>>25418179
meditation numbs your brain by obliterating your ego.

>>25418179
i will do neither
>>25418169
you talk like a fag that's all there is to it

>>25418080
Sounds like that guys talking out of his ass or doing it wrong
In the Buddhist tradition uncertainty/questioning whether things are real is one of the hindrances to enlightenment. The object of meditation is to achieve the jhanas, pure states of mind free from those meaningless worries

>>25418169
not as stupid as someone rambling about "obliterating the ego"

>>25418194
>i dont care about whatever science
so you're a delusional crackpot, got it

>>25418203
i'm just going by what some experienced meditators say, ones who meditate hours a day for years accumulating thousands of hours before they encounter the dark night. can't trust people with probably far less experience on 4chan.

>>25418194
yeah dude just do rtk for kanji its common sense!!!

>>25418179
>observe their mind
They're probably afraid of whats in there. I mean look at the usual state of this thread and the discord that's only the surface of whats in their troubled minds

What the FUCK does くちゅ mean?

>>25418225
why
>>25418237
bad comparison

>>25418063
>free
it's a giant waste of time
>harmless
lol nope

>>25418229
>experienced meditators
fake gurus swindling money out of retards like you
>>25418203
who gives a fuck about some two thousand year old dumfuck lore

>>25418229
it's true that the dark night happens to some people, but only if you only do a specific kind of meditation (dry insight) and don't balance it with the other kinds that bring comfort and balance to those realizations, like metta (compassion) or body scan. people don't understand that there are different techniques within meditation and sometimes you need to use a variety for best results.

>>25418275
sounds like they had an awesome experience

>>25418281
it's the opposite. it's people with nothing to gain just sharing their experience online. meditation is going to select for people with little experience and/or positive experiences. it seems that when people truly realize that everything they love is an illusion it can really fuck with them. meditation isn't for everyone.

>>25418284
hm well that makes more sense. this shit is complicated.

>>25418281
meditate on that anger bro

every meditation fag is just a closet druggie waste of life

>>25418194
this is what the typical miaer looks like

imagine matt debating any of the anti meditation ppl here they would be crushed with ease

>>25418222
based

>>25418329
why? i dont care about mia

>>25418330
hes just a shitty jp major he has no authority or standing on the matter

>>25418284
scientific evidence that dry insight meditation is the sole cause of dark night please

>>25418275
damn that guy's ego got btfo and he almost harmed others

>>25418317
big talk no proof
youre just part of some voodoo cult popping "astral projection" shrooms

>>25418412
astral projection doesnt require any kind of drug

>>25418330
"hey matt can you share a funnel plot of meditation research that shows a significant positive effect with no signs of publication bias?"

he'll crumble. because it just doesn't exist.

wonder what quiz would have to say about meditation if he were here

>>25418422
yeah it just requires <80 iq lol

matt is a fag for backing away from talking about meditation publicly, y'all talking like he's some badass

>>25418426
98% of people probably fail at getting effects from meditation so studies on it dont matter, its a hard thing to do like learning japanese

>>25418452
that doesnt make any sense

>>25418489
so its placebo after all nice self-own

とける

>>25418502
to you yeah i know

just face the facts: meditation is now a vital part of learning japanese. you're all just stuck in your old ways.

the confounding factor here is that matt and his goons are all dopamine addicted and terminally online
a 30 minute walk in the sun would be more than enough to clear their mind or w/e theyre after

>>25418502
it makes perfect sense, low intelligence life forms are woke at all times because they can't form a sense of self

>>25418529
lol really filtering for iq there

>>25418426
you're obviously addicted to this site since you're always here to post this when the topic comes up so kind of funny you are so dedicated to proving something that could help you as fake

>>25418548
what does that have to do with astral projection?

>>25418586
everything

>>25418504
thats like saying input hypothesis is a placebo because 98% of people fail at learning japanese...

>>25418524
thanks for attempting to post a japanese post on the japanese learning thread

>>25418565
actually i usually stay out of the meditation discussions but i am around enough to see all of them but meditation hasn't been proven to do shit and i can't engage in a cultist practice just because cultists swear by it. maybe in 10-20 years if the scientific landscape has changed we'll see, but i'm not betting on it.

>>25418599
how? what do you even think astral projection is?

you guys will really argue about anything
anything to avoid acquiring japanese

>>25418317
>>25418284

>>25418565
lmfao and what good is your magic formula doing for you? youre still garbage at japanese and wont ever make it because you waste time zoning out like a drooling sped all day instead of doing shit that actually matters
"meditation" is a disease and its practitioners are the embodiment of the ngmi mindset

>>25418637
Astral projection (or astral travel) is a term used in esotericism to describe an intentional out-of-body experience (OBE)[1][2] that assumes the existence of a soul or consciousness called an "astral body" that is separate from the physical body and capable of travelling outside it throughout the universe.[3][4][5]

The idea of astral travel is ancient and occurs in multiple cultures. The modern terminology of "astral projection" was coined and promoted by 19th-century Theosophists.[3] It is sometimes reported in association with dreams, and forms of meditation.[6] Some individuals have reported perceptions similar to descriptions of astral projection that were induced through various hallucinogenic and hypnotic means (including self-hypnosis). There is no scientific evidence that there is a consciousness or soul which is separate from normal neural activity or that one can consciously leave the body and make observations,[7] and astral projection has been characterized as a pseudoscience.[8][9][10][11][12][13][14]

>>25418623
>actually i usually stay out of the meditation discussions
meditation might help you with your lying problem

>>25418653
so where does feeling woke fit into there

ngl i smoked a joint with my friend and we were walking around on a golf course barefoot which was great and i decided to sit down on the green and meditate and i basically traveled to japan it was pretty insane

>well first you get through the vuhrna and attain the dharma which gives you key insight into the 7 kuktas
you know this meditation shit would be so much easier to embrace and sound so much less goofy if westerners found secular western terms to describe things.

>>25418648
meditate on that anger bro

>>25418667
you're not here as often as me so you don't see the countless discussions in which i refrain from posting that meditation lol pic

>meditation is pseudoscience, no thanks!
>haha immersion and rtk totally work and are completely scientifically proven lmao

>>25418702
whats your point?

i feel bad for anyone whos never had a transcendent experience
seems like all the anti-meditation people are just people who believe their thoughts are everything and are unwilling to explore outside of their egos
its just fear of the unknown

>>25418653
>consciousness or soul
lol these aren't objectively definable terms
meditards don't even know what they're arguing about
