Hey, first post. How about that. Well sorry to start it with a question, but I've got a question.

>ヤバイよー。これ マジヤバイよー。こなきゃとかた……

It's pretty clear that she's not liking the present situation and is thinking it'd have been better if they hadn't come. Isn't こなきゃ こなければ? As far as I know, なければ is "must", so it looks like she's saying it's good that they came? I'm messing up here somewhere, can someone help me understand this?

Someone verify my translation. I dont think i have it correct.

もちろん、キノコやニンジン、キャベツを入れてもOK。炊飯器の加熱力は強力だから、早炊きモードなどにしない限り、しっかり野菜に火が通るだけではなく、やわらかくなるまで煮込んでくれるのだ。

Of course, mushrooms carrots, cabbage etc can also be put in. The rice cooker heating level should be "high" so set the rice cooker must be set to high and only high. Firm vegetables can't just be passed through the fire (??? they cant just be briefly cooked i guess??), they should be boiled alongside until they are tender.

Of course, mushrooms carrots, cabbage etc can also be put in. The rice cooker's heating is strong, but as long as you don't set it to fast-heat mode or something like that, then your vegetables won't just be cooked, they'll also become soft.

I said once I finished I would make a Flyable Heart chart, so in the future people have an easier way to judge progress. I thought using the sex scenes as checkpoints was the best way to do it without spoilers.

Everything is to scale and as accurate as I could make it. I used the skip function and a stopwatch to measure how long each section is. Then I spent 2 hours in paint making it.

I hope people find it helpful.

I just finished up the introductory course, as recommended by this sub's wiki, on NihongoMaster.com, which just teaches you to read(/write/pronounce) Hiragana and Katakana, as well as a handful of introductory grammar courses.

Moving on to the beginner course requires premium membership, which is pretty costly for something like that in my opinion.

Can any of you recommend what would be the best next step at this point? Is one of the other online resources typically recommended after this, and if so, does it have a similar style of teaching? I don't mind if there is a one-time fee, but I don't care for monthly sub's. Something that would perhaps build off of what their course taught so far would be incredible.

Or would I just be better off going to a community college and continue there?

Thanks in advance.

I would really recommend you getting some kind of beginner textbook to study if you are serious about learning Japanese. My recommendation would be Genki 1 and 2 which should give you a good foundation to build up on.

I'm studying kanji with the Heisig method, and I'm almost done. After that I wanted to start using this knowledge, for example by reading stuff for children.

However I noticed that children manga/books are written in hiragana instead of kanji because they can't read them yet. However for me this is actually way more difficult, because reading hiragana imply the knowledge of the words, the phonetic and so on, while kanji could be probably read even without knowing how to pronounce a word... Do you know of any good resources to practice them? Possibly something "funny", I'd like to avoid scholastic stuff as much as i can...In the meanwhile I'll continue to studying grammar and oral japanese to be able to understand the meaning behind hiragana, but for now I'd really like something to practice kanji

RTK is for learning how do deal with Kanji. It does not teach you japanese. The Kanji knowledge you have now will speed up learning japanese a lot, but you have to start actually learning japanese first.

Either use Genki or read Tae Kim's guide while grinding vocab.

I know "just read" is the current meme, but you're not at the point where you can start reading things. Go learn some grammar and vocab, no matter how boring you think it is.

That's not how learning works

>>135459094
There's really not. You've kind of been memed on, learning to recognize Kanji is largely worthless if you don't know the words the Kanji composes, and heisig doesn't teach readings so that doesn't help you much.

What heisig teaches you is "this Kanji *usually* means this vague sort of concept in compounds", and not " X Kanji means Y" which isn't how Japanese works.

It's not that your time is totally wasted, because you'll remember words more easily when you can guess at the meaning before knowing it, but you've done the equivalent of learning Latin roots and expecting to be able to read English.

I would recommend starting core2k/5k/6k/whatever, you'll learn words in hiragana and words in Kanji at the same time, which is what you want right now.

Otherwise you sound like you haven't learned grammar yet, which is the other component needed for reading, and there's resources for that in the guide.

I feel like spoon feeding so I'll just go ahead.

Tae Kim for katakana/hiragana. If you want to try hard write them down on paper, if not just real kana it. Then, Tae Kim for grammar but only the first chapters to get the most important parts down. Tae Kim wants to teach you some vocabulary so make some effort to learn whatever words he wants you to learn. You can use Anki for this purpose. Download anki, make a new deck, add whatever words you come accross in the guide. Then, start reading. Start with manga, shit's pretty easy. You can try like Yotsuba or whatever but something like Yuru Yuri is also very accessible and easy to read I think.

THE MOST IMPORTANT PART IS READING. I can't stress this enough. The faster you get to the reading part, the better. WHich is why you only want the very basics of grammar and Tae Kim is good for this because his chapters are fairly short.

No, that probably works as intended. You reviewed the cards at least once so they were no longer "new", but review cards. Then you suspended them and reviewed them again, probably around 3 weeks later. Since you pressed good, Anki goes "he knew still knew the card after 3 weeks, so the next interval is 2 months".

If you actually still knew the card, great, you just got a mature card without any of the early reviews....if you didn't, why did you answer "Good"?

You could say the exact same thing about the guide itself, really, in that it attempts to explain how to systematically learn Japanese instead of just pointing to the guides and references that actually read like they were created by adults and a teenager.

But it's fun to throw stones in glass houses.

I took a break from Japanese to learn how to whistle.

The time I use daily for studying Japanese, I devoted to learning to whistle instead.

I expected it take a day or two.

It's been an entire month.

I still can't whistle.

I learned to whistle when I was five by practicing for a few minutes in front of a mirror, what makes you think I have any clue how I did it? Like the other anon said, you just put your mouth in the right shape and blow the right amount of air. It's hard to explain it any more precisely. Try not putting too much strength in the muscles around your lips I guess. Also, make sure your lower lips are not too protruded.
