Well, guys, I guess this is it. These past 2 years have been nice and I'm grateful to you all, but now that I'm fluent in Nihongo (Japanese), I don't have any reason to frequent DJT anymore.
See you space cowboys...

I always thought it was funny how people in our culture like to use curse words so casually in everyday life (usually because they think it's cool)
that when the time comes to emphasize something they find they have nothing available to them to signify "now I really mean it" so they just come up with increasingly unique/aggressive ways to say the same thing.
>>139017006
Fuck you.
>>139017006
Studies show people who curse more often are emotionally stronger than those who don't.
Enjoy being a crybaby pussy, bitch.
On topic:
Is there any way to make anki automatically mark your card wrong and show you the answer after a certain time has elapsed? So as to avoid staring at a card for 30 seconds when it's obvious you don't know it.
>>139009806
「行かすわけには」 is あなたを
「行かされるわけには」 is 私を
If one is "I won't let you pass"
the other one is just "you pass won't be let by me"
One is just passive.
>>139017006
I agree, it is pretty stupid. I've never said fuck, so I can still pull it out if I ever need to be super serious.

Make a script to simulate specebar keypress after 30 seconds and stop, then reset after you've pressed a number key.
There's this game where you earn stars based on your level, if I want to say that I'm trying to level up to get the third star, do I say 第３星に頑張ってみる or 第３星へ頑張ってみる?

>cursing means you're emotionally tough
This is interesting because I've always been regarded as well-spoken and intelligent by my peers but I fucking swear all the time; even when explaining something complex and technical and even during formal meetings.
I also live alone and haven't had a girlfriend since I was in high school. I don't socialize offline at all. I am steadfast in all that I do, and I'm not bouncing off the walls.

You can say 「僕は君を行かすわけにはいかない」 (I won't/can't let you go), but you cannot say 「僕は君を行かされるわけにはいかない」 because you have to replace 「を」 particle with 「に」 to be grammatically correct. But this changes the meaning to "I cannot be made to go by you" (「僕は君に行かされるわけにはいかない」). This expression is pretty awkward even if it's grammatically correct.
>>139018240
It also means you have a small penis

Is it gramatically incorrect if I leave the に?
>>139018468
I got it. But I'm pretty sure no Japanese would use the expression like 「私を行かされるわけには」.

You are the one who flip the sentence by giving out one example of 僕は君を行かす and flip it to 僕は君に行かされる.
That's never what I said in the first place.
I'm saying something like あなたに学校を行かさない and 私に学校を行かされない
Anyone know who the guy is that the news in Japan is going crazy about, the guy who cheated on his wife with 5 different women.
Why is cheating so weird in Japan, they just get forgiven and with a public apology and then everything is fine.
http://www.yukawanet.com/archives/5025977.html
I assume the religious differences mean they aren't so focused on infidelity and the cultural differences like they used to be able to have more than one wife.
>>139018933
Japan is stuck in the 1800s and thinks it's not really a big deal if the husband cheats on the wife.
>>139018933
http://ototake.com/
even in this apology notice on his website, his wife apologies to everyone because "as a wife I am responsible".
Surely she doesn't need to apologise for her husbands conduct.

Having a little trouble with the following:
捜査当局は、男がパリの同時テロ事件に関連した調べなどが進むなかで追い詰められ
It comes from this:
>ベルギーで起きた連続テロ事件で、実行犯の男のものとみられるパソコンに「いずれ捕まることになる」と書き残されていたことが新たに分かり、捜査当局は、男がパリの同時テロ事件に関連した調べなどが進むなかで追い詰められ、犯行に及んだ可能性もあるとみて、捜査を進めています。
Does Verb + なかで, X, mean that X is occuring within the timespan of the verb? How is this different from 間？At the point 追い詰められ, isn't the subject still 捜査当局? Because it's in passive form, doesn't this mean that 捜査当局 themselves have been driven into a corner or tracked down? I know that with context I can tell that it's the opposite situation but I would like clarification about the grammar.
>>139016138
Can ながら and のに be used interchangeably to emphasize that two clauses are opposite in meaning? For example, in this sentence from All About Particles, it looks like you could use either and it would have the same meaning
>高木さんが体が弱いと言いながら、よく夜遅くまで酒を飲んでいる。
>Although Takagi says he is in poor health, he often drinks late into the night.
Or am I just missing some subtle difference?
>>139016138
In this sentence
>あなたの血液は、何型か知っていますか？
what is the meaning of the か particle? Why is it is used over が in this context?
>>139020237
"Va heh heh"? That... can't be right...
>>139016138
The following sentence is in the Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar
>毎日漢字を勉強しているのによく覚えられません。
I haven't really studied how passive is used, however the the dictionary says a common characteristic of the Japanese passive is that the event is not under the control of those affected by it. Is that why it's used here? Does the sentence make sense without the passive?
>毎日漢字を勉強しているのによく覚えません。

Is 印される いんされる or しるされる in 少年の足跡は聖母イブの大地に印され始めたのだった?

>>139020577
か = whether or not
>>139020502
If you just look at
男がパリの同時テロ事件に関連した調べなどが進むなかで追い詰められ,犯行に及んだ
it's clear that 男 is the one getting 追い詰められ
The verb performed by 捜査当局は is とみて、操作を勧めています

In respect to the word 韓国学校, according to Jisho 韓国 is either a noun or no - adjective. So why isn't it 韓国の学校? My overall question is when can I combine nouns without using の? Is there maybe some kind of rule?

Yes, but the nuance changes. Just read more.

Don't say those kind of unreasonable things.

I'm having a bit of trouble with this one - if someone could give a translation with maybe an explanation on the どの and にも that would be great!

I don't really know why I stumbled across this, and it's probably still ahead of what I am learning currently, but my understanding is that this can be used to say you did not do something. For example, 知らなかった and 知らず translate to roughly the same thing, right? Japanese keyboards seem to recognize it as a valid sentence, but I'm sort of reluctant to use it because I don't know exactly what it means. Translators also seem widely inconsistent when I try different verbs such as 分からず、寝ず、etc.
TL;DR: What is the difference between なかった and ず verb ending?

Still trying to understand the NHK News, but I encountered a sentence which is giving me some trouble and I have an inclination - but cannot resolve part of it.
http://www3.nhk.or.jp/news/html/20160318/k10010448831000.html
The sentence is: このため自衛隊は部隊の展開を進めていて、ＰＡＣ３のほかに、高性能レーダーを備えた海上自衛隊のイージス艦を日本の周辺海域に派遣するなどして北朝鮮に"動きがないか"警戒することにしています。
I understood everything else without issue, but I am wondering if my inclination is correct. The final clause seems to say: "(The JSDF) ...will be vigilant even if there there is no action by North Korea." The weird part is the non-movement matter with the ka particle which I think can be translated as "If there is no movement". It makes sense, militarily, but is the focus on the JSDF watching the North Korea's (continued) non-movement with vigilance (from now) or despite the non-movement (of the past week)?
Also, this article is N2-level right? The only weird words were "破壊措置命令", "周辺海域" and the "迎撃" part of 迎撃ミサイル besides my confusion stemming from the rather complex sentence.
>>139021015
I was wondering why the thread was suddenly about learning Japanese as opposed to mindless shitposting.
>>139016138
How do you know when to use てもらう or てくれる? I'm very confused by this grammar point. I don't really know when to use くれる or もらう either.
>あいこさんのイメージで、花屋さんにつくってもらったのよ。
In this case why is もらう used instead of くれる？ I'm very confused by this example. I was taught the when the speaker is the topic we use くれる the speaker is the topic but the opposite is used.
>>139021043
This is even worse, because people will think there's someone to help, especially because all the points people mock from reddit are very basic confusion.
>>139020680
>か = whether or not
no, that's ka
absolutely terrible.
>>139021034

I've been trying to learn without doing kanji study, trying to pick kanji up just through vocab but I've noticed I get similar characters confused regularly, and I'd also like to be able to write.
The idea of learning readings with kanji instead of through vocab seems like a waste of time, which has lead me towards RTK, but I've heard a lot of negative thoughts towards RTK as well. What should I do /djt/?

>will be vigilant even if there there is no action by North Korea
"will be vigilant if there is any action by NK"
It's a "whether A or not" clause. It doesn't logically matter whether it's a negative or positive. In Japanese, a negative is often used.
>>139016138
I just woke up and did my reps. Feels fucking great.
I used to be really hung up on mining my new daily cards on the same day I do them, since it gives me a chance to remember them when they pop up in Anki after reading them. But when you have to mine your words before doing your reps, it's too easy to put it off. By the time I've mined my words and can do my reps, it's so late that I'm tired and the words barely stick anymore.
Just mining everything you might need to review whenever you read anything is definitely the best way to go. Even if you end up with 200+ new cards that you'll have completely forgotten you added by the time you get them, it's totally worth it to be able to do your reps first time in the morning.

Because they have less literal usages that are often written without kanji. For ところ it's for example when it doesn't refer to a physical place, but the current state of some action.
Someone help me understand what the difference between 状況 and 状態 is. So far they seem interchangeable to me.
What is a good way to type Japanese easily? Would help me a lot. Right now I am just using google translate to turn romaji to hiragana. Is there a better way?
>>139021759
I did core 6k, started reading regularly, used heisig for a while and then dropped it. Since finishing 6k I've been doing mined decks and reading. I think Heisig's story thing is useful but it just wastes so much time. I would probably recommend looking up the heisig number on kanji you confuse and then going backwards through the elements they are made up of instead of going through the whole sequence.
He stopped responding to OP.
Is there a term coined for the japanese typical fake praise?
>>139021836
Thanks, anon. Would you also happen to know if core2k/6k also contains the kanji for those words, or do I need to learn them through other means?
>>139021902
In japan it's just called praise.
First day on fish oil, my new card have went back up from 10 to 50 at around 1000 seen in the deck. The fish oil tastes kind of bad, but this post is to let people know that fish oil is an alternative to look into if you can't seem to study well anymore.
Will I learn kana faster if you associate them with mnemonics??? Or does it not make any difference?

Has anyone here ordered from denshi-jisho.com ?
I placed an order nearly two weeks ago, they took the money and said they'll send a mail when the product ships. And then nothing. May have to take some actions. Just curious if anyone here has actually ordered and received a product from them.

Having a problem with Anki here. How can I make it so that not all the decks have the same font settings?
This thread is like a weird time capsule.
why do I feel like I'm not making alot of progress? The anki grind feels numbing and reading so slow at vn takes away from the experience. What do i do?

Solid reasoning there, m80. You don't look like an autist having a fit at all!
Quick question with this sentence
起きれない子供を持つお母さんにインタビューしてみました
Is there some implication by using を持つ rather than a の. I mean the way former makes sense, I just know if I were to produce a similar sentence I would use の. Context is a tv show announcer talking about what happened on the last episode of the documentary

Excuse me DJT-Squad, but I have a question.
I found the series Kanojo wa Rokurokubi (彼女はろくろ首, 그녀는 로쿠로쿠비) and the scanlators call it "The Long-Necked Girl", but shouldn't it rather be something like "She/The Girl(friend) is a Rokurokubi"?

Is the construction "<masu stem>もする" grammatical? I saw it used supposedly to mean "Even did <verb>", but I'm not sure I have ever seen that construction before. For example
日本語が難しくて、諦めようと思いもする

Generally they have different okurigana, but there are a few exceptions, so there's no hard rule. Just become more familiar with the language, like one anon already told you: READ.

Do you just look at it until you go "oh it's that one?" what are you supposed to associate the kanji with

You will never know all of the kanji or every single grammar point.

You serious? Ambient/drone or bust.
Is there anyone here with a lot of experience who's just tried reading with no Anki? How did it go? I know there's a few people here who are a hell of a lot better than I am and they still use Anki, but I was wondering how the different styles compared.

Learning songs a good way to learn Japanese? I mean, obviously as a supplement.
There's so many beautiful songs. I just wanna learn the vocabulary so I can sing them and feel their power!
Man, sometimes I sit back and realize how great it is not to be autistic.
I was literally the worst student a teacher could possibly have. Loud, obnoxious, never showed up to class, always had the best grades in class despite never doing homework or taking notes.
I've never once had a teacher hate me to the point they failed me intentionally.
You people must be the worst scum imaginable.

Anyone else think that it feels easier to practice with things that aren't fun?
I can spend hours reading/listening to those more intermediate and advanced Nihongonomori grammar lessons where the lessons are all in Japanese and there are no English subtitles, but it's hard for me to stop my mind from wandering when I try to read a VN or some manga.
As long as everything feels like a chore then I can stay focused because it feels like I'm studying, but as soon as that line between studying and fun begins to blur then my mind switches to free-time lazy mode as if I was taking a break and playing a video game for fun and not for studying.
I dread the day that I finish all of these lessons and I have to switch to fun things. My progress will probably die.
I wonder if the Japanese people on the English equivalent of DJT read books like this and argue about what it means.
>Ef it wuz HIM dat 'uz bein' sot free
>Ef - (Old Saxon conjuction) 1. If, when
>Wuz - (South Scots) simple past tense of be
>Dat - Representing a colloquial pronunciation of that, likely from African American vernacular.
>Uz or Oghuz Turks, a group of loosely linked nomadic Turkic peoples
>Bein (genitive Beins or Beines, plural Beine) - leg of a person, animal or object
>From Middle English sot, from Old English sot, sott (“foolish, stupid”)
>"You retards are never going to learn English if you can't understand context. It's obvious that Tom Sawyer is cleverly utilizing context and a mixture of Old Saxon dialect, South Scottish dialect, African American vernacular, and Old English to tell Huckleberry that he will be the fool when the leg of the nomadic Oghuz Turks is free. He may metaphorically referring to a possible Turkish invasion of the Mississippi River that will happen in a later chapter."
Fuck I haven't done anything Japanese-related in a while
After writing every kanji radical 50 times what am I supposed to do then
