>>138819320
Why not both? Obviously reading is more fun, but pairing the two leads to quicker and more efficient learning than just reading. Just keep the time spent in Anki relatively small compared to compelling content.
>>138819333
>>138819380
Is it really person instead of people? And wouldn't it be literally 'it's always because of you(rself)'?
ごめん

>>138819391
>Is it really person instead of people?
I'd argue that it's probably singular, though I suppose context would make the determination. But the implication is "the thing of your important person disappearing" (in general, may have happened more than once) is your fault.
>wouldn't it be literally 'it's always because of you(rself)'?
Sure. As in it's the consequence of your actions? But I'm not sure that's a meaningful difference.

These only ever seem like a problem when there is zero context
When you're reading and you see these it's instantly apparent which one it is, same with "indistinguishable" kanji
Sentences are a bitch to understand.
So correct me if i'm wrong; Japanese tends to be more " unspecific" and shorter, Kanji covering most of the sentence?
Like, for example;
"Hey can you pass me that?"
"これわください？”
Sorry if i'm not making much sense here.

Nothing in your post makes sense.

>The more words you learn, the more previously unknown words you'd be able to decipher through your existing kanji and vocab knowledge.
>By reading and mining, you'll get a shortcut to the generally uncommon words that are particular to your favorite reading material
With all this combined, you'll be able to read reasonably well much sooner than you imagine.
That does require you to hit the raws, though. If you think you can just fall into an Anki rut and start blazing through raws 20k cards later, you're in for a surprise.

I've found myself spacing out a lot lately while doing Anki. A thought pops into my head and then I just follow that rather than actually getting my flash cards done and over with. Now and then I'll have a burst of focus and just burn through them but that's more rare than I'd like. Any tips for keeping focused?
>>138825413
try stimulants
>>138825413
Doing my reps in bed on my tablet in the morning was the best decision I've made about Anki. No distractions and more comfy.
>>138825436
I actually did for a while. I found that I still got distracted but just a bit less.

Sounds like you're not sleeping properly:
>Free running sleep is defined by the abstinence from all forms of sleep control such as alarm clocks, sleeping pills, alcohol, caffeine, etc. Free running sleep is a sleep that comes naturally at the time when it is internally triggered by the combination of your homeostatic and circadian components. In other words, free running sleep occurs when you go to sleep only then when you are truly sleepy (independent of the relationship of this moment to the actual time of day). Night sleep on a free running schedule lasts as long as the body needs, and ends in natural awakening. No form of sleep disruption is allowed. In particular, any use of an alarm clock is the cardinal violation of the free running sleep principle.

What's the young retention from? Does the deck have duplicate cards / cards you already know or something? At least my mature retention is higher.
>>138826525
>Does the deck have duplicate cards / cards you already know or something?
No.
>>138826572
Why are the 'hard' and 'correct' rate so similar? Do you press hard when you don't know the first time or something?
>>138825919
You have twice the amount of learning and young answers as I do, yet almost the same amount of mature answers with a higher retention to boot.
>>138826631
>Do you press hard when you don't know the first time or something?
No.
>>138826572
Did RTK/KD or something beforehand then? Or do you have just autist-tier memory? If the former I can understand since my retention was similar with Core (it's lower with my mining deck though since I only add words I had issues with / new kanji and readings).
>>138826689
>Did RTK/KD or something beforehand then?
No.
>Or do you have just autist-tier memory?
I don't think so?
>>138826670
Then why is it so similar? Also, can you post the time section of the anki stats? I'm interested in seeing how much time you put into Anki to have such a good retention rate.
>先
>申し訳ないけど、今日は先に元彼とした約束があるので、あなたとは会えません。
who comes up with these examples?
>>138826722
>I don't think so?
If you did no form of kanji study beforehand, then it's probably just autist-tier memory. It's pretty rare to see someone with that high retention who isn't cheating, doing a deck with duplicate cards (production, recognition, etc.), or did RTK/KD beforehand.
>>138826766
What kind of deck are you using? I didn't have this sentence when I first encountered it in Core2k.
>>138826821

>>138826821

>>138826724
I press hard if I only barely remember it, if I need some time to remember reading or meaning, or if I guess correctly but doubt myself.
Time is higher than most people though.
>>138826933
Then you're doing pretty damn good. Well you take some time but that's perfectly fine honestly. What deck is that anon? The only deck when I had close to that retention rate was when I did core. (And I was 'only' at 90% or so.)
>>138827040
60% core 6k, 40% mined words+grammar.
>>138827135
So you already finished 6k or it's a complete mix between the two? It's really good anon.
>>138827201
A mix, right now 30 new core6k and 20 new mined words per day.
I'm nearing the end of core 6k and would like advice on what to do next. Pretty sure the general consensus is to mine vocab after this but I'm wondering how many
of you have found 10k. I heard somewhere what it covers is fine but the order in which it does it is bad. If thats all thats wrong with it maybe this is the right choice
for a lazy fuck like me.
And for those just focusing on mining at this point. How much do you roughly read each day for this? and how many words do you tend to add each day? I know I
don't read enough but perhaps I'll get burnt out slower if I'm using 'my' deck.
I know this has been mentioned in previous threads but please humour me; what's the best method for adding mined vocab to a new deck, and will this way add an
example sentence with it? I find them useful to see how a word is used.
Thanks for any help.
How am I doing, /djt/?

For someone of your level you will easily find the minimum of 20-whatever words if you actually read beyond like a single chapter of manga
It's been a couple days and I gotta say, mining from the LOGH word list to compensate for not finding enough words in the stuff I've been reading has turned out to be a great choice. Though it's not often, I do see many of the mined words while surfing the web or reading a VN, so its efficacy is apparent. Glad I did this.

>>138827334
I think you're right, but how would I add those to a deck efficiently?
>>138827515
There is no way more efficient than Rikai-sama auto import, given how it's just pressing R. There is no way more customizable than epwing 2 anki.
>>138827232
https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/2754914665
That's what you need to do next. It'll take you straight to fluency.
>>138827554
Can you choose the definition Rikai-sama would import? There are cases where the word I want is neither the first definition for its kanji, nor the first definition for its kana, so I can't get it in through the auto-import, even if I retype the word.
>>138827232
What's with that spacing? Anyways
>I know this has been mentioned in previous threads but please humour me; what's the best method for adding mined vocab to a new deck, and will this way add an example sentence with it? I find them useful to see how a word is used.
Anyways, if you're reading VNs or watching anime with Japanese subs (so stuff that can be texthooked), then http://pastebin.com/raw/DgZ84qwk works pretty well. Essentially makes making new cards a 1-2 button process for the vast majority of words (some have multiple entries and you want a specific one or Rikai doesn't have audio so you have to get it somewhere else like Forvo).
I've also heard it works with Capture2text if you're reading manga/LN scans or something though.
There's even a tag on the Rikai import settings to get the sentence you imported the word from (though lines with sentence ending punctuation won't import the whole line, not sure if there's a way to change that). If you want sets of example sentences generated in the cards for you rather than just using the context you found it in, you could also pair it with Epwing2Anki, but that's slightly more tedious.
>>138827717
Enable sticky mode (press "u" while hovering over a word) and mouseover the entry you want. If that doesn't work either, then just manually fix the card real quick by copy-pasting (sticky mode lets you copy paste from the popup). If you accidentally click somewhere else and get rid of the Rikai popup, just ctrl+click on a word.

Does Japan actually have month names or do they just use 一月 二月 etc?
That seems kind of lonely... I'd feel sad if I could only refer to the months by number.
>>138828853
Blue = 6 months by default
Most people drop decks before every card is 6 month interval
>>138828894
Nice, may I ask what are the white ones though?
>>138828915
Uh, never dropped any decks, is this common among people? It kinds of defeat the purpose.
>>138828914
As far as I know they had them, but I don't think anyone actually uses them anymore.
>>138828965
>what are the white ones
I have no idea, I think they're there because I changed the default word written in hiragana to use kanji
>>138828915
>>138828965
Isn't the point to retain as many words as possible? I imagine if you kept doing the 6k deck for long enough after encountering all the cards the reviews would go down by a lot so it wouldn't take much effort.
>>138828965
>It kinds of defeat the purpose.
When cards are mature, you're supposed to know them, so it doesn't defeat the purpose. Furthermore, Anki is a supplement to reading. When you can read easily, then that will become your SRS, and anki becomes bunk. I dropped Core2k/6k because I saw all the words while reading so much, the deck was a waste of time. So no, dropping decks doesn't defeat the purpose.
>>138828914
There's a traditional name for each month:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_calendar#Months
They're used in the way you would expect of archaic language.
師走 is pretty cool, though. It's pretty much the only month name that's still relateable even in our modern society.
>>138829090
It's also used in a lame pun in azumanga daioh
>>138829042
>it wouldn't take much effort.
The equation here is "effort" vs "desire to expend effort", and the desire to expend effort reviewing material you already know well every day for the rest of your life (or otherwise years) is very low, which cancels out however low the effort may be. For most people.
>>138829078
>>138829143
I can understand this, but personally I haven't set a limit to "how blue" a card can get, so to give you an example my oldest deck has cards I won't have to review before 2017 or even 2018. Seeing a card just takes me 2 seconds, it's nothing.
I'm kind of a completionist though, and I see how someone could call me an autist for it, but yeah I understand why some people decide to do that, it's completely fair.
Can syllables only go from unvoiced to voiced or they can go both ways?
Like how 「しま」 in 島 can become 「じま」. Is the opposite possible?
When is it a good time to start reading, in addition to grammar studies and deck studies?
Like, how many known kanji/words/grammar rules makes reading the right thing to start doing?
>>138829250
>I haven't set a limit to "how blue" a card can get
I don't know what you mean, kanjigrid has "180" days be strong by default so blue is 180, or perhaps 360 if 180 is the middle and not the end.

I worded this weirdly sorry, I meant my maximum interval, which is 10 years (36500).
>>138829143
>>138829250
A good way to reduce the amount of reviews in the long run is to play with the modifiers. I set my interval modifier to 120% and easy bonus to 170% when I had about 1000 words left and was grinding 60-80 new words per day. Now I only have to deal with 30-50 reviews per day.

>>138829644
Fucking with your intervals is something you should only do when you're very sure that the cards you're going to do will be very easy (to you) or just when you've already finished the deck.
I still use default interval modifiers on my mining deck which is my main deck now because I still come into contact with tricky words and new kanji every now and then.
>>138829510
I don't think anyone limits their max interval.
>>138829523
I don't think you get it man. The urge to drop anki, the desire to be free, is a red hot seething passion within the hearts of men. If it comes down to reviewing material you already know for little benefit except conforming to SRS' schedule, you can bet your ass people will drop it like wildfire. I mean fuck, look at all the people who drop Core2k the moment they introduce the 2000th card, look at all the people who drop Anki ENTIRELY after Core2k, Anki is a monument to the worst aspects of language learning, the unending tedium of flashcards, the binding scheduels and the boredom. If a glint of light is seen within reading it is man's deepest desire to FLEE to escape the schackles of Anki's wretched flashcards and bask in the warm of reading's utopian plains, engaging in compelling content to his hearty's content. That is why it's rare for graphs to turn blue, for in order to so most men themselves would turn blue in intolerable sorrow.

Love your writeup dude, but once you finish a deck, the time to review each card gets really short. For instance I take an average of 40-60 seconds to do my reviews for core.
I'm guilty of dropping decks too though -- I worked my way through 120 cards in a 四字熟語 deck and one day I just went "Fuck this" and dropped it harder than I dropped Subete ga F ni naru on the first episode.

That 40-60 seconds is intolerable to burning spirit of man. At some point pride overcomes all else.
Well, so I say, but I finished the DOJG deck and I still do the 1-2 daily reviews just because. I figure when I can read LOGH/Muramasa without struggling I'll close anki for the final time though, just as a symbolic gesture of overcoming vocabulary hell and thus no longer needing Anki.

>For instance I take an average of 40-60 seconds to do my reviews for core.
>tfw I stopped doing new cards in core 8 months ago and still have 40~ reviews a day in it because of how low the ease on my cards got since I did most of them before I did RTK and ended up rarely ever hitting good and pretty much never hitting easy except for on katakana words
>>138830072
I suspended every single katakana word. I also suspended all words when I was able to guess the meaning on the first try.
I'm halfway through core2k6. The first 2000 cards were really easy, I think I know 90 to 95% of it without any problems but when it comes to these 1000 cards I did next I noticed a difference as it got harder. I noticed I'm almost only paying attention to the Kanji and how they're read, and well from there I'm able to guess the meanings of other words and so on, etc.
My "problem" is that I don't really pay attention to what the word means. Of course I can guess it thanks to the Kanji meanings but often I just pay attention to how it's read and that's it. My take on this is that anyway core2k6k's translations are jisho-tier at best and thus can't convey all the nuances and so I'm probably better off not caring about this too much until I've read more. Did something similar happen to you guys?
tl;dr : I'm focusing on how Kanji are read much more than trying to understand what the words are and mean.
>>138830241
Are you chinese or something
>>138830259
No but I studied RTK1 and RTK3 for a good while before doing core so I don't have any trouble writing Kanji and telling them apart.
>>138829976
Someone made a really useful guide for reading it aalso its 4chans mascot
>>138829976
Has a reading pack for it that's extremely helpful for beginners, is easy enough that you can jump right into it after Tae Kim and not have many issues, so it's not that frustrating, it's actually good (unless you have shit taste), 4chan's "mascot" etc.
Also the fact that most people on DJT start with Yotsuba when getting into reading, so it's just a cycle. Flyable Heart and Hanahira as first VNs is kind of the same way.
There are other manga that are likely just as easy, but the reading pack does wonders if you're a new reader.
>>138830302
Do you have any problems with comprehension when reading? If you don't, I would advise that you be more strict when doing your reps, i.e. hit again when you remember the reading but only a vague meaning. Doing this should make you hit again more which means that you see the card (and the meaning!) more often helping you to drill it into your head.
>ここは主に人型
>Here are mainly the humanoid ones.
Is there something I could improve here? It somehow feels wrong, I don't know.
>>138830459
Most of these are humanoid.
>>138830443
I don't have trouble but here again it's not like I encountered the said words whose meanings are only vague to me. I think I'm just allergic to all these business words that all mean the same thing core tend to throw around.
I'll try to be a bit more careful though.
>消してきなさい

One is asking them to extinguish the candle, the other is him later saying he did it. What I do get is what appears to be くる appended to it.
I know it's just some basic grammar thing I'm missing like a retard and it's infuriating.

"i went to"
>>138830675
I thought くる only reference coming from a point? The second one makes sense, but why wouldn't the first line use いく？
>>138830741
My bad, "Come extinguish it" then I suppose.
I get your annoyance for those as they bothered me too. I would recommend just trying to feel those rather than trying to translate them word for word.
>>138830741
You should do your Tae Kims.
http://www.guidetojapanese.org/learn/grammar/teform
>>138830590
In this case it's literal "extinguish and come (back) here" - "extinguished and came".
There is indeed grammar about sticking くる and いく to テ形 of other verbs, but just study that when you will.
>>138830837
>>138830849
>>138830884
>"extinguish and come (back) here
This was actually my assumption, but it felt weird to me so I just assumed I was missing something more obvious. Thanks guys.

Sure, put everyone else down to make yourself feel good. I trust that you have 100% reading comprehension and find most of the questions asked here about reading too simple too.

Seriously.
I've been having so much fun with this. More than readers, more than children's books, more than grammar textbooks.
Before it took discipline to spend an hour reading.
Now my reading sessions are 3-4 hours long and I don't even notice.
I want to learn, so it would be god's work if someone could point out all of my mistakes, because I'm pretty sure that I fucked something up with my garbage japanese.

what specifically are you unsure about? if youre trying to translate a whole grip of shit and then precede it with saying youre not sure about basically all of it, it seems like youre trying to run before you can walk
>>138835370
>what specifically are you unsure about?
It's this line specifically 'Estarossa looks exactly like Meliodas' current wanted poster instead of the boy's look.' But there may be a mistake somewhere else too, although I don't think so.
>>138834395
>having normal memory is autistic
Well, whatever helps you sleep at night.
>>138835567
If it were normal, seeing people with that retention with 0 kanji study would be way more common. But I know you're just looking for an ego stroke, so whatever.
>>138835456
break it down more. what in that line do you not understand? the theme here is the more specific you get, the better you can identify and solve your issue
>>138835910
>>138835910
There is no regular 'instead' in that sentence, but it made sense in the context, so the question is if the TL for that sentence overall is still faithful.
>>138835803
The people who actually learn have nothing to complain about, so you just don't hear much from them. Now, the dummies on the other hand will bitch and moan all day every day.
>>138835985
its not "instead." its "because" he looks like a young boy that he looks just like the kid in the wanted poster
so weve identified that you were unsure on how から works here. thats what i was getting at
Hey /djt/, what does "フィルム" refer to?
Just film as in movies, or film as in all kinds of films, like TV anime. Or does it refer to literal film stock?
>>138836358
Literal film.
>>138822991
>You get better at Anki'ing as you go, allowing you to take in more words each day as you progress.
For me it's the opposite. I started with 20, dropped to 10 and have now settled on only 5 new words a day.
~1300 words in.
>>138836292
>its "because" he looks like a young boy that he looks just like the kid in the wanted poster
That makes no sense though. Estarossa looks like the wanted poster in the series. And the wanted poster shows an old man. There is non with a little boy, that's what's confusing me here.
>>138822991
>If you think you can just fall into an Anki rut and start blazing through raws 20k cards later
No one thinks this.
Why do so many posters here treat anki like a boogeyman? Literally no one here does anki and nothing else. But almost every time someone starts ranting about how anki isn't effective by itself. Literally no one thinks otherwise.
おはようおにいちゃん
ここはだれわたしはどこ
>>138836760
so you mean to say estarossa in shounen form, unlike his wanted poster from today, greatly resembles meriodas (in this panel)
we still havent identified what you feel unsure about. what is it that doesnt click despite you knowing what its saying in english?
>>138836484
That's pretty bad.
>>138837149
So the thing is that I think that teh sentence should be
>Estarossa looks exactly like Meliodas' current wanted poster instead of the boy's look
Because Estarossa, a grown man, looks like Melidodas' wanted poster, showing a grown man. The 'instead' wasn't outright in the sentence though which implies what you wrote here >>138836292 which in return would make no sense. So the problem is what the exact translation would be and if just adding the 'instead' makes sense for this sentence or if there is another, more literal way to express it.
>>138836415
Thanks
>>138837320
the function of から is obvious because of 現在 following after, which it is trying to tell you there is a difference between the two. whether or not you want to try and force the word "instead" into a translation is ultimately up to you
"exact translation" is a pipe dream most of the time
>>138836484
Man, that's just terrible. You should really be doing at least 30 new cards a day. It doesn't matter how many failed cards you get, just fail and relearn them fast and be without fear.
>>138837806
I suppose I'll give ramping it up another shot. I wonder for those of you who do 20 or more new words a day how many cards is your daily Anki dose? For me with 5 it's usually between 100-150.
>>138838338
20 new words, usually 115ish reviews per day.
>>138838338
I've been doing 33 new cards a day.
>>138838623
You must have pretty great retention. I think mine is worse than it should be. I see so many posters in these threads with better stats.
Come to think of it I turned off suspending leech cards early on. Was that a mistake? There's ~250 cards marked as leech now.

H-halfway there...
>>138839312
You are only 1300 cards in and you have 250 leeches? Ouch. You should definitely suspend them though. When you finish the deck, unsuspend them all and try again.

At a low new card pace no less. It's why I ended up disabling the suspending.

All leeches do is waste time. If you haven't remembered them by the time you fail them 8 times, there is no reason to keep trying.

You basically just need to do it the same way everyone else does.
Just do a kanji study with KKLC or RTK or something and then read a lot of content.
>>138840013
Well yes.
It just makes everything easier since you know the words already, and that you're able to read text with furigana without problem.
Otherwise it's more or less the same.
>>138840519
>>138840774
Sorry, I don't mean I need advice. I was just wondering if there was first hand experience or some kind of study on the subject. I'm already pretty confident in my Japanese abilities myself. It's more of an academic curiosity I have.

>>138840905
Alright then.
It's not as if I can't read at all, but I'm definitely better at speaking.
Then again, I don't really think this is the right place if you're looking for that kind of people.
