I think what it takes to succeed remains the same. You have to have a real love of your sport to carry you through all the bad times, you still want to go ski even when things aren't working. You must have a commitment to work hard and to never give up.
Play nice and keep it clean.
Did you do your reps yet?
>>140665933
N-No, I'll do them after this GoT episode.
I'm translating a doujin right now and I'm kinda confused on the nuance of this sentence
>たったさんかげつで。。。
It only three months
>この人に 犯されるように 抱かれてから
This person who is committed to fucking/ravishing(?) me.
Now, does this mean that it took 3 months for this chick to get mindbroken/corrupted, or does it imply that she's already been corrupted for three months?
If anyone wants the context it's from
http://exhentai.org/s/93f03bde8c/527536-19
>>140666442
The former. It took her three months go get mindbroken counting from the first time she got fucked. I think.

I've recently discovered that my retention improves if I stick one 指 up my おしり and there's the added bonus of it feeling so fucking great...
I have another comprehension question,
>その言葉を信じるつまりも気を許すつまりもなかった
I believe those words, in other words I feel I will allow it, in other words it also won't happen
What's up with the つまりs in this sentence? Is it like a literal pause, like i.e?
>>140667462
Yeah it's the first one I'm 99% sure of it.
>>140667487
What purpose does つまり serve? It just feels really clunky to me with them added in there
>>140667462
Sure it's not つもり
>>140667517
I just told you it's the first one are you retarded or smth bro?
>>140667518
What do you mean? Like it's a typo?
>>140667518
>>140667619
OH it was a typo. It's actually つもり
>その言葉を信じるつもりも気を許すつもりもなかった
So now it would go something like... I plan to believe those words...I won't allow the plan to go into action?
I have the "review cards before showing new cards" setting in anki but since I synched with the web page it mixes them together again, but the setting is the same. What do?
キャー！お兄ちゃん何してるの？
>>140668426

Why are options in anki global? Is it possible to make it so one deck has 10 new cards per day and another 30?
>>140668656
Create a new options group.

>>140670185
It means you should lurk more before posting
>>140668537
本語 - Book Language as in Literary Language as in Real Ni Hongo and not the one used in anime. The 二 symbolizes the duality of Japanese as it has 2 forms called High Japanese (Real) and Low Japanese (Anime).
>>140665933

Now time to masturbate and then leave for class!
>>140670472

Didn't you know that cum actually increases your brain powers?
>>140668656
Read the anki manual.
>>140670630
It's too late, anon.
The time has come and so have I.
>>140667736
No, it's "I don't have any intention of believing those words or letting my guard down."
>>140670762
Next time collect the semen and drink it/rub it into your forehead and you should see an increase in retention of about 17.15945%.
What should I do when I go to Japan and I don't want to bow?
My people don't bow or bend the knee.
>>140670813
Guard down? Is that what 気を許す is referring to? Literal translation would mean allowing feelings, so the negative would be not letting your guard up?
Anyone here who's read 文学少女? I just finished the second volume and it was incredibly draggy and boring, wondering if it gets better in the later volumes or if I should go back to reading other stuff.

>>140671167
I've read one of those so called books too. It was called Fate/Zero, pretty basic grammar and it doesn't use particles except の and は so I can say your LN is easy too.
>>140671147
But you already jerk of to 2D fictional girls (that's in the best case scenario) what can be more disgusting than that?
>>140671147
hi leddit
>>140670902
>>140671147
Make sure to shine a bitlaser on the cum. The bitlaser being shined on your forehead already increases your retention, so they increase the effectiveness of each other.
>>140671312
Yeah and don't forget the meh ankifu and a dekinai oh and also a welp whatever that is
>>140666442
Looks like you gave half a sentence but I don't have exhentai so I can't check anything

>lol
Just leave
>>140672345
Where should I leave in your opinion I mean which website can you give me a link and say why it's better lmao
Am I right in thinking "逆に言えばコレで百年は闘える means something like "feeling like you can keep going forever", like being really happy or whatever?
>>140672261
I was more on about how redundant it is to use a separate character for something that could easily be conveyed using the first one.
awful falseflagging attempt by the way

This still makes me laugh pretty hard.
took me 5 day to memorize hiragana and katakana
oh well its fucking ez
what's the next stage ?
it's Kanji ....
just fucking kill me now
>>140672887
No it's not.
>>140672587
Need context.
>>140672887
I don't know if RTK is still considered a meme by DJT but I'm halfway through it and it has improved my overall retention by an enormous amount.
Then I'm also one of those faggots who care about handwriting, so if you don't it might be a waste of time compared to other methods.
>>140672887
Kanji isn't even the hardest part of Japanese. Long after kanji stop being an issue you will still be grinding vocab.
>>140673072
Why do you recommend study methods when you're still a beginner yourself? Fuck off.
>>140673072
Why do you care what a bunch of キモオタ think about your studying methods?
>>140672863
Does the beast's cock enter her at any point?
>>140673167
Pretty sure kanji is the hardest and longest part of learning Japanese
What do you think's harder?
>>140673072
If you want to learn to handwrite / do production type cards, then RTK is a good way to go. It's particularly helpful for visual / kinesthetic learners.
You spend more time upfront becoming familiar with the kanji in order to save time later when learning vocab: they are easier to learn and tend to be easier to recall due to the familiarity. Production type cards tend to really cement your understanding of a word in your mind earlier than just recognition, but both production & recognition equal out in the very long term.
If you just want to read things to consume recognition works just fine, and might even be faster if you don't mind it being more difficult up front + possibly lower retention rate at first.
>>140673237
>What do you think's harder?
I said in my post.
>kanji is the hardest and longest part of learning Japanese
Nope. Come back when you're not a beginner anymore.
>>140673265
You forget to show the wanikani turnpike to fluency.
>>140673318
The difficulty of kanji extends over into vocab, which is the main reason why it's such a massive grind
>>140673199
rude
>>140673203
If I did care I obviously wouldn't have gone with it. I just remember it being DJT's number one trigger words half a year ago.
>>140673397
It really doesn't. Kanji stop being an issue after a year or two. Once you pass the ~2000 mark or so you basically start acquiring them automatically.
Following new manga is crap.
>read volume
>takes 30 minutes or so
>now I have to wait a year for the next one
Nice.
So just beginning Kanji and how big am I supposed to write these? Obviously bigger than Latin letters right? This question also applies to Kana.
>>140673265
RTK doing a great job for me so far and I'm not even a visual learner. I don't think RTK utilises visual learning much.
>>140673476
That's why you only read completed manga and get your weeb fix in VNs/LNs.
>>140673468
You have to learn the pronunciation of new words even if you already know the kanji. You wouldn't have to memorize the pronunciation if kanji didn't exist because kana make it obvious. I think that's what he's saying.
>>140673492
There's no real size, I tend to write them on an enlarged grid that I print out: http://incompetech.com/graphpaper/custom/centimeter-black.pdf
The main thing is that no matter how simple or packed together the strokes are, the character as a whole should occupy the same square space.
>>140673850
>the character as a whole should occupy the same square space.
yeah I give a lot of attention to this
I mean I'm just curious about how Japs write their Kanji. There's no one set size but most Latin alphabet-users have a similar size of writing, for example.
>>140673492
Make them fit on normal lined paper and it will look good
>間に合う
>be in time, answer the purpose, can do without
oh come on..
>>140674419
間に合う - "we good nigga"
>>140674419
fit + interval
being in time - fitting the time interval
being good enough - fitting the quality interval
>>140674686
Yeah my ESL self misunderstood 'be in time' as the same thing as 'to be on time', writing this post with one hand, tying the noose with the other

That's pretty neat.
>>140674755

Waking up early has it's benefits.

Chip away at them in 15 minute intervals. If it's mainly vocab recognition cards then you'll fucking fly through them in no time.
>>140675633
do them
>>140675633
Give up and accept that I'm superior to you, loser.
tfw bumping reps by an hour just so i can finish them all
>>140675656

>>140676562
No time like the 贈り物, anon.
honestly lads where and how did you find the motivation to do tae kim, it seems like such a daunting task and difficult to remember, what methods did you use to practice the grammar as you went along with tae kim
>>140677266
You don't need to remember, just read it. Later you can look up specific stuff.
>>140677266
Just chill out and go through it a little every day.
It's not like it really matters that much. You'll learn grammar properly while reading and referring back to tae kim/imabi.
>>140677266
Do it little by little and use Anki to help you memorize the grammar points through the example sentences.

Not sure where to ask this, so I figured /djt/ might be of some help.
I got banned from PSO2, so I'm trying to send in a support ticket to get this resolved. Now, the only problem is that I'm a baka gaijin and don't know runes, but someone made a rough translation of what I want to send in. Figured I'd ask the pros to give it a once over, just in case, so I don't look like the baka gaijin I actually am.

Well, that's what happens when you act like an arse around japs. They don't take any of that shit and just hit the ban button.
>>140678964
you get what you deserve dude
>>140679070
That's what I'm trying to find out.
>>140679147
I only play with a few friends of mine, and I never talk outside of private chats.
Should the guide mention something about how long to use Anki Core 2K before getting into Tae Kim?
Most of the vocabulary introduced in Tae Kim doesn't appear until after about a week of Anki. Not saying it's impossible, but I'm definitely getting a lot more out of Tae Kim returning to it after memorizing some of the kanji first.
>>140678964
You didn't get an email telling you you were banned? Maybe just wait a day to see if it's just a temporary fuck up.
>>140679552
vocab is irrelevant for tae kim, you can just use rikaikun to understand the concepts
>2 year anniversary of starting learning Japanese rapidly approaching
Soon I won't have the shield of "I-I haven't even been studying for 2 years"... no more excuses. The onus of sucking is fully on me

>>140679707
>I wish I didn't spend 6 months on Core2k
You mean ONLY on it? Because there's nothing wrong with using it on top of other stuff like grammar+reading material while mining.
Anyways, what reading level are you at now? What's the hardest VN you've read comfortably?
>>140679799
Expletives are not a sign of anger in my country.
If you cannot figure something like that out yourself, you may as well take a class.
>>140679803
Why do you assume anon reads VNs? This isn't /jp/.
>>140679707
>6 months on Core2k
Fucking how? Christ.
>>140679882
11 words or so a day on average?
>>140679917
you could have cut that down to 3 months with 20 words a day friend
>>140679875
>If you cannot figure something like that out yourself, you may as well take a class.
You should calm down.
I don't see how what I'm saying is any more obvious than advice such as "Alternatively, you can learn hiragana and katakana by getting a notebook and writing each character 50 FUCKING TIMES BITCH (and DRINK BEER)."
>>140679803
I read Tae Kim during it but nothing else.
As for now, the hardest VN I read cover to cover very comfortably was Akeiro (https://vndb.org/v18495), I barely needed to look up any words (maybe 20 through the whole game?) which felt pretty good, especially since it has a significant plot.
>>140679875
VNs are great oniifam
>>140679882
10 words a day
>>140679882
That's not even that bad if you're spending time on grammar and shit, DJT is just autistic.
>b-but you'll never get a vocab of 25000 at that pace!!!
No you won't, but again at the beginning you're also spending a lot of time on grammar and such, and vocabulary gets easier over time because kanji stops being a problem and words are interconnected. When you start reading after finishing Core 2k and Tae Kim you can easily learn 20+ words a day purely through osmosis.
Is だっていた the っていた form of the copula? Does the copula work like that?
>>140680114
I think the number people should be reaching for is closer to 10,000 anyway. You won't be reading Muramasa at 10k but you will be able to conformably consume the vast majority of content out there. Any unknown words will very likely be isolated in the middle of sentences you otherwise know the words to so it's easy to go from context.
>>140680186
I have absolutely no idea what the fuck you're talking about
>>140680186
please get to the nearest payphone and call ty kim
>>140680194
lets be real you wont be reading muramasa not at 10k and not within 10 years
trying beforehand is just a exercise in futility
>>140680114
Averaging 10 words in Anki for 6 months is absolutely unacceptable.
>>140680377
Eh. I did 10 words a day until I hit 2,500 kanji and then I did 40 a day because I was more experienced and it's easier. Not a big deal fampai. Reading is more important than anki anyway.
>>140680417
Yeah, but 6 months?
JESUS.
does anyone have that anki python script to look up kanji on jisho?
>>140680186
だ and です are fossilized terminal forms of the copular verb family. You want である if you're going to be doing conjugation.
>>140680377
It's only unacceptable if you're autistic.
I didn't even use anki for my first 6 months, wasted time doing stupid shit like that slime game and rosetta stone, and have never added more than 20 words a day to anki (and rarely that much) and still managed to read Muramasa after 3 years
As >>140680417 said reading is more important.
>>140680447
>6 months
What do you think happened after 6 months? I finished Core2k, and then I did a mining deck, and I still did 10 words. It's closer to 1-1.5 years. And I don't regret it because I read in that time and that was more important than anki. My only regrets are that 1) I didn't read MORE, starting from day 1 rather than 6 months in 2) I didn't do listening practice nearly enough 3) I didn't do RTK
>>140680541
Yeah man, but 6 MONTHS?
>>140680598

Exactly what you think.
>>140681154
Nothing. Music harms my retention so hard I can't even pretend not to notice it. Sucks cause it makes Anki much more enjoyable.
>>140681135
I'm pretty sure you're just getting mocked for being this invested in what /djt/ thinks.

Okay senpaitachi, I need an easy but also engaging visual novel. This means Flyable Meme is out. Perhaps something plot centric rather than a puer character driven story.

I'm just going to post this image like I always do when people ask for recs. Apparently it's full of mistakes and memes but here you go.
>>140681289
Engaging is hard to find. Even well written and interesting stories can be boring due to the way VNS are written in general. Your best bet is Dies Irae, I haven't heard of anyone not being immediately engaged by it.
Why won't Anki give me the amount of new cards I'm telling it to? I changed the new cards amount from 20 to 100, but it's still saying I only have 20 due. What's going on?
(I'm only doing 100 cards a day for the next few days since I'm just playing catch-up with stuff that I already know pretty well.)
>>140681154
I listen to what I'm listening to when I'm not doing reps.
>>140681387
I'm aware of this one, but I'm also aware of it being pretty inaccurate.
Why doesn't someone well read make a new one?
>>140681154
日本の音楽
>>140681289
If you mean as a first VN, then your options are pretty much Axanael or Flyable Heart. Flyable Heart is good because it has a throwaway common route and good routes and a multi route story that all ties together. Almost anything you read you're going to butcher, so Flyable Heart's throwaway common route or Axanaels all around low difficulty once you get into it are pretty much your best options.

How fast were your reps today, anons? I was preoccupied today so they went pretty bad and slow.
>>140681387
I corrected that chart but I lost my correction so I'll just mention the games not suitable for a beginner (but still playable if you want to!)
- Daitoshokan
- Twinkle Crusaders
- Clannad
- ***Monobeno*** (this is no joke, FULL of thick dialect and medical terminology, whoever put it on there was tricked into thinking it's a simple lolige)
- Aiyoku no Eustia (it's too good for that)
- Himawary (same)
- Kimi ga Nozomu Eien (one of the longest VNs ever written)
- Natsukumo Yururu (appearances are deceiving)
- Sekai de Ichiban Dame no Koi
>>140681408
Are you editing the options for the subdeck or the main deck? Because subdecks will be limited to whatever the parent deck's new card limit/review limit is.

Goddamn, I consider 10 cards/min a good rate. How the hell do you even go that fast?
>>140681154
Uh, the audio from the core deck?
>>140681598
I was editing it for the main deck, but your comment helped me solve the problem. I had to add the subdecks to the same custom options group that I'd created. I thought just changing the main deck would effect all the subdecks, but I guess not.
Thanks.
>>140681695
When you can read kanji at the same speed as english letters, anki will go by much faster.
Think about it, if you had to pause to consider every letter, going through english vocab would be slow too right?
>>140681571
You should make a chart if you're so well read.

I don't see the need, its best to read what you want to, not what a chart tells you. It's just that chart has bad enough recommendations I thought it'd be good to point it out before people get suckered into them. Well, get suckered into thinking certain relatively / fairly difficult novels are good for beginners.

They seem to usually write the kanji a little bit bigger than the kana. Look for some artbooks with character design notes from the artist for examples.

Hey guys I'm trying to download a kana chart right now on my hyperbit connection, but it's way too slow. The kana chart is going to take like eight weeks to download. I can access 4chan fine, though. My lord lets me access BBSs via carrier pigeon, however, by way of his good friend Prince Alexander of Daventry. Can you guys post some text art kanas? It would really make my learning process about your foreign worlds a lot easier. Thanks!

I've been wanting to read that one for a long time. It would probably take me years to read it at my slow pace.

You don't know true shame until you're almost seven years into "studying" and still can't talk or read above a first semester nihongo student because you're a drunken unmotivated loser who hasn't cracked open a textbook more than three times in the past five years.
>>140683567
I meant I've been studying for 2 years, not studying for 2 years then not studying for 5 years
>>140681571
you forgot to mention 車輪の国 dude theres tons of references to things gaijins wont know
that aside its still a game where you have to be able to connect some dots on your own and thats just too much to ask for a baby who can only connect shit to their diaper
i also feel bad for anyone who actually read the fan tl for it lmao (yeah anyone whos been around knows beating up on it has been done to death)
>>140683300
i dont know if its honestly even worth reading this far removed from when it came out

I made a chart. I think it's strength is that it's a guide, and not a recommendation chart; it offers a path that isn't just throwing a ton of moege at you. What do you all think? This games are all probably familiar to you, but maybe in the future it will be helpful.
>>140684607
I don't like it.

That's pretty hurtful anon
Studying with eroge seems like a bad idea. I wouldn't want to let dirty words slip in real life. Every time I want to say 皆仲良しして。
I always think 皆中出しして！

It's like this
Study with compelling content -> erpge are very compelling to many people -> Study with eroge

Plus VNs are just great in general for learning since they're texthookable for nearly instant lookups along with one button card creation with the sentence you got the word from, have a very wide range of difficulty and vocab/subjects covered, are usually fully voiced outside of the MC, have a great mix of narration and dialogue, have visuals to help give context sometimes, etc.

And you can study with an erection.
True progress is obtaining an erection from text alone. For example:ダメ
can anyone tell me what kanji this is suppose to be? I looked in every dictionary I have and couldn't find it.
Can someone help me figuring the kanji in the pic?

Thanks anon, I didn't know about this

Thank you a lot for this!
>>140685482
Going by years is a bad idea; someone could be reading easy light plotge without having to look stuff up too often within a year, whereas someone else could spend a whole year on just Flyable Heart.
Just put in time, dedication, and consistency, and when you get to the point where you can read just learn to enjoy the journey and have fun reading rather than worrying and stressing over long term goals.
>>140685554
>unfortunately none of that matters as handwriting is irrelevant
But it's relevant for reading too evidently, going by the image in >>140685399 and the poster's confusion.

At the top I said:
"Ultimately the best thing to do is read what you want to"
My goal, which I think I accomplished fairly well, was to provide some works of certain difficulty levels. I didn't want to recommend novels as novels themselves, because there are plenty of sources for that. I myself don't think HatsuMira is *that* good, but it was certainly a step up in challenge.
Good taste as for Kangoku though.

as a bonus if you can read the text in the picture it really doesnt matter because its pointless but your other 4th grader friends will be impressed
>>140685989
on the real i think a chart is not that useful because everyones different
difficulty is a misleading term because of course you dont know stuff (words etc) you dont know but its not hard to pick up and learn the stuff you dont know. it just takes time and effort
id only honestly apply "difficulty" to things that require really good reading comprehension to get the most out of which is a entirely different skill as most are stuck on the kanji and grammar and oh my goodness theres no english counterpart to this phrase parts
thats not to say something like 群青の空 doesnt require any reading comp though
Man even Tae Kim says not to just drill kanji and memorize their meanings. I was getting nowhere and losing my patience with just doing flash cards and memorizing the onyomi and kunyomi.
>>140686187
Well, it's all right when you're talking about a book, but other than that it just sounds dumb.
>>140686907
I read all those games, so I can explain in simple detail why their difficulty is "real" - the vocabulary is a stratum higher. You could read 50 moege and still be blown out by Bradyon Veda, because Bradyon Veda is hard science fiction that covers topics Moege pretty much never do. I don't mean to say Silverio Vendetta is harder because of any phantom reason, it is harder straight up because its vocabulary level is very high. That's it. HatsuMira's vocabulary level is challenging, but not as much. Sci-Fi nukige are challenging, but not as much.
I for one think the chart is helpful for people not really into the VN scene, but still reading VNs to practice. Bradyon and Silverio are both games easy to overlook compared to the universally known Dies Irae and Muramasa. One may not think to read through some sci-fi nukige to pound out that vocab in a simple setting. Hatsumira is not something anyone talks about, and may not be something one would expect to be hard. Etc.
Basically, what I'm trying to say is, anyone who has read primarily moege will struggle with the middle row, and struggle a lot more with the third row. So even though "everyone's different", everyone can use that chart as a reference of some difficult games, should they desire it.
I honestly can't for the life of me figure out this handwriting. ヌ又？ヌヌ？又又？at least the last one would kinda make sense as "yet again", but I've never seen またまた written in Kanji. And even then that would be 又々, right?

>What do you all think?
I think people just need to fucking read a lot and widely instead of trying to pigeon-hole themselves into some autistic visual novel route to the language.
