This thread is for the discussion and learning of Japanese with raw otaku media.
If you have no interest in otaku media we recommend heading over to /int/'s 日本語スレッド.
Please use sage. This isn't /a/ or /int/, you don't have to keep bumping the thread all the time for no reason.

Let's have a nice thread by reporting and ignoring off-topic posts.

according to the dictionary, there are times when かかずらう=かかわる=こだわる

if it's obviously being used in the こだわる meaning, then I don't think you are wrong regardless of which reading you use

I rarely hear かかずらう used in speech, and most times かかわる is used in the meaning unique to かかわる, not as a synonym to こだわる, so I personally think こだわる is the safest reading

but I'm obviously not a native

I can read manga rather fluently but in the end I still spend more time trying to decipher these fucking sfx and side talks than reading the actual content. Actually just deciphering at all since most scans are utter shit quality.

No, more or less recent stuff.
764x1200 scans have annoyed me lately, as an example, and the sad thing is it seems some labels out there are releasing manga with that resolution as a standard, since that last manga I picked up has this resolution set for all volumes.

It is readable, but I still spend more time deciphering than checking eventual unknown words. This is not really a question of whether I'm good or not either I think, while as a whole I don't consider myself advanced quite yet, when it comes to characters themselves I'm rather good, having learned how to write kanji and all.

Like 9 volumes of Kino no Tabi and all of Pantsu ga Hakenai

Tried Jinrui like 5 months ago but it was too hard so I put it on hold, was gunna try Monogatari too but I started getting into VNs instead

Kino is very good but I wouldn't call it addictive. Reading multiple volumes of it in a row feels weird to me, since there is no feeling of "I need to know what happens next". It's more of a once in a while thing for me.
>Pantsu ga Hakenai
Steeping low here anon. Also I would recommend Zaregoto instead of Monogatari from Nisio. It's more exciting and I assume you've already seen the Monogatari anime so you might have less of a drive to push on since you already know the plot. Oh and if you want to get into Jintai, check out AURA first by the same author. It's only a single volume and probably a bit easier to read.
And yeah, for a whole year that's pretty little. 9 Kino volumes is probably the size of ... one long VN. I wouldn't be too depressed about your listening comprehension not being top tier already with only that much.

Yeah I didn't read as many LNs as I would have liked to, I spent most of the first half of the year reading manga because it was just easier and then I've spent the last two or three months trying to get into VNs and raw anime for listening practice, I also read a countless amount of doujins so it all adds up, just my listening that's lacking really my reading's about as good as I need it to be for the moment

I just quickly counted the number of concepts for each level of the DoJG here http://djt.neocities.org/bunpou/full_night.html :

基本:203
中級編:198
上級編:198
合計:599

Is it correct? I'm in the process of making my 2017 schedule/routine and I'm planning on reading entire DoJG little by little every day. From the look of it I'll need to read at least 2 a day if I want to finish reading it by 2018... but ideally if I could finish reading it that way in a couple months it'd be better.

Or is there something better out there I could do grammar-wise? Like JLPT N2+N1 books? I have no idea. When I'm reading I don't feel like grammar is really a problem, and even if it ends up being one I can just get my answer through google.jp. I'd just like reinforce my knowledge somehow, since there surely are holes in it.
PS : already read TaeKim obviously and I did all the Visualizing Japanese Grammar lessons which by the way are awesome. Never really used DoJG, and I don't think I'd be interested in the deck since it'd be redundant to always have the cards popping up every now and then.

Reading and noting down every sentence or whatever you find difficult in a text and going over it a month before the test would be better than anything else. If you still feel like you have a lot of holes that's because of the things you're reading being too simple.

I'm not sure how to see how much anime I've watched this past year since I'm using MAL, and graph.anime.plus doesn't seem reliable either at first glance, but it's definitely a lot. I always pick up between 20 to 30 shows every season (so this x4), and between seasons I always take the opportunity to marathon 10 or so series from my plan to watch list. I always religiously watch at least minimum 4 to 5 episodes a day since I always do so during my meals/tea breaks.

All in all, trying to get a number of everything I just said in a pretty half-assed way, I get something like 1900(?) episodes, so less than you it seems. As much as I can't stop loving anime I now prioritize reading over watching more anime since I consider my listening comprehension to already be pretty good by now.

It seems like the Tokyo pitch accent for compound verbs is pretty irregular and arbitrary

For short compound verbs of ~4 morae, even if both the constituent verbs are accented, the compound verb often ends up unaccented

There are sometimes some kinda bad anime I get half way through but end up forcing through the second half to see how the story ends

Didn't you realise the solution when you reached the climax of Flyable Heart and read for hours every day because you had to see what was going to happen? You need to find compelling content so good you read consistently, there's absolutely no point if you're only going to read 10-20 minutes a day.

By the way, I read 29.5 VNs in 2016. Given how I started Flyable Heart after you did, I'd say you're slacking a little.

I think it's possible to add a "replay" button to your card templates, but I don't know how to do that. As a temporary solution, you can undo and re-reveal the card.
>When you're first starting with the DJT deck, what exactly are you trying to remember? just the pronunciation? It appears very daunting to remember anything more than that (coming from a kanji absolute beginner).
Reading and meaning, but keep in mind that you won't understand the full meaning of a word solely from Anki. You need to see it used in various contexts to fully understand it. This is probably also why Core definitions tend to be very bare-bones.
There are optional steps that make kanji less daunting, such as studying them separately or doing a radical deck. See what works best for you.

I would push again for this one. It's nice to know 水素 is すいそ, but without knowing what it means in a language you already know, it's useless. Though I am assuming that you are well into the deck so pushing hard would mean not seeing the card again for at least a month or more.

How important is stroke order for kanji? I don't actually intend to ever hand write anything in japanese outside of the learning process.

Also, any other tools/documents similar to this: https://www.google.com/url?q=https://mega.nz/%23!f9EGjCAB!vd6-ufIJ8LuanynCzDggMYIcjm27j_H9kjfI0Seuclc&sa=D&ust=1483329454492000&usg=AFQjCNG2VtHQEWj0fJgp7gjYvnm7_TPiZQ

It fits my learning style perfectly, so there's other resources that follow the same pattern, I'd love to know in advance.

None of these, it's "I want him to love me with his body AND his heart". I'm not going to read the rest of the doujin because I already fapped 30 minutes ago, but consider this:
>is that it's a mindbreak and she's been getting raped
In other words, his body already "loves" her, but she wants him to actually fall in love with her, too.

This also has a conflict, in that in the next line she goes in a string bikini to swear herself as his sex slave and whatnot, calling him master. If it were her wanting him to love her with his heart too, then why would her actions be to debase herself as a slave? And in fact, not too long after, she calls herself his "possession" - not much love-seeking there.

She isn't trying to win his heart though, she does all that cause she's desperate to get banged as evident by her dialogue being completely centric on 1) her inability to endure her lust 2) her dialogue just begging to be fucked, not for his heart. You can have a headcanon that she wants his heart, but the actual dialogue and her actions don't reflect that - not to mention, this may be an eromanga, but it's a RAPE eromanga, and those tend to end with the girl becoming a slave to lust, not a cutesy girl wanting the guy to fall in love with them.

So apparently I had to learn about kunyomi and onyomi to start kanji. Anyways, I read the basic rules regarding when to use the kun/on pronunciation (names/places = kun, solo kanji = kun, kanji + kana = kun, multiple kanji = on). Is there a way to know which pronunciation to use within the kun or on listing if there's more than one choice?

For example 山田 is supposed to be read as やまだ but 田 has both た and だ listed as valid pronunciations. Since 山田 is a name, I should use kunyomi, but how do I know which kunyomi pronunciation to use, experience?

You seem to have the basic pattern down, but there are so many exceptions that you really have to look up every word individually. And then when you get to words that can be read in multiple ways, I still haven't found a good way to decide which reading is more common.

Names are a nightmare. With experience you can probably make a good guess, but you can never be sure unless you are specifically told how to read it.

It's true though that we perhaps had a bit more diversity... but perhaps not either. We have 105 IPs right now, it's fairly similar if not higher to what we had if I'm not mistaken.

What's worse?

People who give up after a month?

Or people that settle for forever intermediate?

There are these people who learn Japanese for decades and claim fluency, but they can't even read a newspaper, and guess at things all the time.

It's funny how people in here talk about how 90% of the people here won't even be fluent.

Well of the 10% that stick with it, 90% of them won't keep studying past a certain level.

They will be forever N1-level, but never native-like.

I'm at 4 years now and I can say I can actually read like a native.

But only because I actually studied the entire 4 years and pushed myself.

I didn't give up and watch easy anime and read easy manga without a dictionary after a year or two.

Just because you made it into the 10% does not mean you will make it into the 1%.

端から返金などに応じるつもりはないし、そんな生易しい気持ちでゴミを売ってない

From the start they have no intention to give refunds, they don't sell garbage with such simple feelings

I dont get the latter portion. What

>> No.16356811

>>16356789
"such simple feelings" isn't really a good translation here. I see it as "they're not selling trash items without knowing very well what they're doing". So obviously, being conscious of selling trash, they don't refund.

Well the direct translation is "with such soft feelings you can't sell garbage". This makes perfect sense.

If Firefox updated recently, the solution is to downgrade to your old version of Firefox and disable automatic updates - this is much harder than it should be, google it.

Rikaisama still works, it's just when I want to mine something, the popup window doesn't show up as it should. It still worked perfectly as of last night, I don't get why it's doing this right now.

I don't think Firefox updated, I don't recall seeing the notification.

I don't know if you're still lurking https://desuarchive.org/a/thread/149838051/#149867336 but thanks a lot because it fixed it.

Changed the port from 49600 to 49500 and it somehow worked (I have no idea why since I don't know shit about UDP ports but it did).

Perhaps. Avast updated this morning when I started my computer I think.

It might also be related to having sync'd anki to ankiweb yesterday for the fist time in two years.
