Being and working in America, it's very important to work hard, work smart and work in a certain way. France and Europe has, with the tradition and culture, it's slow-moving and it's not always good.

Bring me success, o great WaniKani.
Is it better to learn from something easy, or something hard?
Trying to decide if I should read a 4koma manga (has furigana, for starters, and is manga) or a LN (I can use rikai, but there's still a lot more text and grammar). The former might be less of a grind, but I stand to learn more from the latter.
What would you do, /djt/?
so is remembering the kanji a good idea?
>>136272869
You're a beginner? At that stage 4koma manga will be extremely hard, an LN will take you a year to read assuming you don't give up.

For someone just starting to learn, is it alright to only use Anki with these decks, or am I setting myself up for failure?
>>136275727
>>136275744
Do core2k/6k, not a Tae Kim vocab deck
Do the DOJG deck, not Tae Kim grammar deck
>>136275744
use realkana instead of anki deck
>>136275792
Reasons being?
>>136275771
recently made the switch to anki from wanikani.
how am I doing?
>>136275843
1 - Tae Kim himself says to not worry about memorizing the vocabulary he uses. You'll be better off sticking to a long-term, optimized, well-balanced deck like Core2k/6k.
2 - The DOJG deck contains every single concept that Tae Kim covers, plus about 400 more, so long-term it's better, and with Anki you should always think of the long term. You won't want to do EITHER grammar deck, though, until you have a grasp on everything Tae Kim covers in the first place.
>>136275843
Not him, but there's no reason to do the Tae Kim vocab deck when the guide itself has vocab lists in each lesson. Tae Kim in entry level grammar, the DOJG deck covers all entries on the three grammar dictionaries. It's quite complete and well put together.
>>136275920
Looks fine, though it's hard to say because your high retention suggests you're just going through stuff you know from WK
>>136275946
>Tae Kim says
>>136275981
In wanikani i would usually get 90-95% right on my reviews.
On anki I'm down 10 percent at least. Not going to lie those mnemonics are hella helpful. Also on the core deck I delete notes that I feel are too easy or burnt on wanikani.

"conscious" study -> checking all the words and grammar manually and asking people to correct your "translations".
And when you stop reading because you're checking things too hard, you're failing to study language.

Did you miss the "intelligible"? 50% is not "not understanding anything". 50% is enough, and easy. 100% is completely unnecessary. You will not understand 100% of what you read until you are postfluent. If you try you will fail horribly AND think you understand things that you don't.

If she had a life insurance policy you're about to get a lot of financial aid and will be able to live a comfortable life, which is what she probably would have wanted. The chances of your suicide failing and simply bringing you more suffering is statistically likely. Strong emotions such as despair over death are proven to fade over time, so if you wait it out long enough you won't feel as *painfully* bad about their deaths as much and will be glad you didn't kill yourself. That said if you want to die go for it.

>>136278089
You seem to be thinking too autistically about language learning.
I'm guessing you're interested in learning to write/speak japanese too rather than just read/understand it like most people here, and so you're being overly paranoid about picking up bad habits. But you shouldn't be projecting that onto everyone else.
Whether or not I'm right about you wanting to learn to speak japanese you're still going to take WAY longer to learn japanese than others will, if you keep thinking this way.
The language processing in your brain isn't handled in the same parts that logic and reason are. If you keep treating language like it's a math problem then you're never going to be fluent, and speaking japanese to you is going to be painful and slow because you'll be consciously trying to recall rules and shit.
Learning language is just different, you need to dive in and absorb real native material for it to sink in properly at all.

In fact, this is *the only way* to learn language that works for absolutely everyone. Every single other method will fail if the person has something somewhere wrong in their head. But if you have the ability to post in this thread right here and now, *you can learn language by absorbing normal material, because that's how you learned in the first place*. No, the ability doesn't go away when you're an adult, that phenomenon is solely that adults have to work instead of sit on their ass and get instructed in their own language all day.

>>136279230
Archaic germanic languages and romance languages are as similar as english and japanese. Germanic languages are heavily agglutinating and romance languages have strong morphology. Japanese is heavily agglutinating and english has a different word order. People back then didn't understand the concept of a cognate, either.
If you found yourself stranded in feudal japan, you would learn the language in a matter of half a year, easily. That's how perfect input is.

It absolutely does, it's the input hypothesis at work. People learn language without instruction perfectly fine. You don't need to understand 100% to learn, you only need to understand 50%, and you start with baby steps.
Natural language reflects how the mind handles ideas. It's literally impossible for japanese to be so different that your brain can't figure out what things mean what.

Except you will literally miss out on information period until you are postfluent, so according to you, you have learned japanese wrong until you are postfluent without having read anything, which is obviously impossible.
>>136279471

Too bad it's like, completely objectively wrong. You don't learn until you read. It's simple as that. No matter how hard you study, you cannot learn anything without reading or listening to things that are explained to you.
>>136279595
>Except Japanese people have NATIVES to help them shithead.
Yes, because every child has a personal tutor on hand at all times to tell them every time they've ever gotten anything wrong and explain how to do it right. Not a single time has a Japanese child ever read and misunderstood a piece of Japanese text. You got me.

What you originally said was, "Except the fact is if you miss out on ANY information in a given passage you have learned japanese WRONG." This is just wrong.
Maybe what you meant to say was that... no, I can't even charitably interpret your statement so that it makes any sort of sense.

Yep.
>>136279887
Ok enough with the confirmation bias no amount of sitting on your ass comatose is going to help you learn japanese.

Spamming a thread with a copy/pasted post is not a good example of determination to model yourself off of

He inspires us to ignore his post every thread because it never changes

It doesn't, I was just making expressing a hope for him to quit. After six months I've gotten used to it. I still would like him to stop though.

>No, you just need to learn before you read, it's a simple concept retard.
All the arguments you're making might as well say that you need to learn before you can listen.
Which is fucking stupid, since if you're banned from reading or listening to Japanese before you've "learned it" I can only imagine how Japanese language instruction works in Japan. Maybe they teach it in English.

MY FUCKING POINT IS READING DOESNT WORK UNLESS YOU ALREADY HAVE AN ADVANCED GRASP ON THE LANGUAGE SO STOP SUGGESTING IT.

Just buy instruction books then read when you have learned the language, stop being a smart ass.
>>136280047
You don't have an advanced grasp on the language until you start reading. If you have a legitimate opinion, "advanced" is the wrong word for the incredibly low level of japanese you need to understand before you can read basic material. I read through all of hanahira after doing literally nothing but reading four pages of tae kim and watching six months of english-subtitled anime. When I finished hanahira I was capable of reading japanese wikipedia, which means I clearly learned something properly from reading it.
>>136280076
>Just buy instruction books then read when you have learned the language
Repeating yourself when your arguments are proven to be complete garbage doesn't actually help your point.
>>136280047
How advanced are you again? Care to say? Ever read something in Japanese in your life?
>その涼宮ハルヒだが、四時間目が終わるとすぐ教室を出て行って五時間目が始まる直前にならないと戻ってこないのが常だ。
Does this mean that she returns just before fifth period? The double negative is confusing me.
If it instead read as 始まる直前にならないと戻ってくる , would it mean that she returned well before fifth period?

Nope. I went under the radar and did nothing but read hanahira.

I see, your problem seems to be that you didn't read more enough. Now stop complaining and go read more.
I always use caps lock to look cool and to prove my point even more. Works every time.
>>136280253
It's called google translate.
>>136280293
Except that advice DOESNT WORK
just telling someone to "go read more" is just a copout of you waning to give real advice, fuck off and stop spreading bad advice.
>>136280253
Too bad you don't learn from those "grammar lessons" of yours until you read a lot.
>>136280253
Surely you must be trolling at this point
>>136280336
If you ever need help understanding something I'll help you out. Now seriously, go read more or else you're never learn Japanese. Trust me on this one.
>>136280325
Good luck with that in Japanese.

Fucking yanks will not learn no matter what.
>>136280391
Oh you're not trolling? You must be burnt out then. Maybe some reading will help
>>136280370
and how is that supported to help anything? I'vr already seen your fallacious arguments, you could just feed me more crap like "read more"
>>136280205
Sounds to me like you "read" to slack on memorization and reading grammar, but you barely read at all.
Is it important to learn how to write the ひらがな and かたかな or is it sufficient just knowing how to read them? I can identify and read them fine, but the actual stroke and such is difficult to recall. Considering we just type everything nowadays, would it be super detrimental to just skip the actual writing?
Reminder not to argue with angry people because they won't listen to you (or are just trolling to make you mad)
You know what I love doing?
Reading.
Let's read something together.

tl;dr
>>136278732
>you need to LEARN the language before READING. This is FACT.
Just out of curiosity, how much do you need to learn before you read? Enough to get started, or do you actually need expertise before reading does anything?
I ask because I've been learning by reading, using anki to try to memorize words as I go along, and using DoJG and the occasional /djt/ query to decipher grammar. It's a rather slow and painful process desu. Is there a better way?

>>136280476
>and how is that supported to help anything?
Well, you'll learn what actual Japanese looks like for starters. That's a pretty good thing to know when trying to learn Japanese.
>>136280687
That guy is just trolling dude, don't take him seriously.
There's no better way. Grammar is too complex to master without exposure. Your closest option would be to study DOJG example sentences for awhile, but you'll need to read eventually and sooner is better than later.

Fuck, I've seen native speakers make worse mistakes than that.
