I've dragged

>with time I eventually remember them
I've passively picked up many mnemonics that go like this: "Ah this is a word I fucked up so many times before, so it must be this meaning and this reading"

>「sekkei」
Should be "設計(せっけい)", which means "design" but we use it for relatively wider context of R&D.

This one

It's said this is the one most people agree it to be reliabe, at least according to amazon comments, however I haven't actually checked before.
I'd check it if I could find this in my office or it'd be most proper way to ask your coworkers in Japanese office to show it to you by e-mail.
Your Japanese seems good, so it'd be not so difficult to communicate neatly with Japanese with helpful stuff and your employer would agree to purchase a dictionary for you.

I usually use squared one, and the uniball needle pen works best for me.

I did this, on lined paper to have less help remembering.

Thanks, that's my favourite number tb.h

which do you think are the worst ones?

you would want to write 林 in a bit more imposing way

Looking for Kanji deck that's just Kanji + meaning. I'm already getting reading through vocabulary.

anyone like calligraphy

For "九", the vertical should be put little bit more right.
Others are enough legible so it suffice the purpose of characters.

My Anki counts refresh every 15:00 or so and I'd like to get it at 2:00 or so.
How could I fix the time setting?

Which guide is better? The one here or the one on Jow Forumslearnjapanese?

ドヲーフ博士?
ドラーフ博士?

Thank you guys.

i kind of think that korean military tradition/culture is inferior and it contributed to loss in ww2, i mean your most capable commander suicided after loosing battle of midway, i wonder when u gonna rebuild army and navy and challenge chinese dominance.

Looks like ラ to me, try googling it

that's not even georgian what you posted, it's elvish from tolkien's world, i am literally dying rite now L M A O

Korea didn't even exist during WW2

>, i mean your most capable commander suicided after loosing battle of midway,
who?

Neither did we lmao

i meant korean i wonder why i end up writing korea instead of korea
it was not midway it was guadalcanal if i remember correctly and i forgot names of commanders, but you get the point officers and generals aren't easily replacable

Because you're a retarded mongoloid trying to stir shit up for no reason. Kill yourself worthless scum.

>Yes I have tons of opinion to harangue
This thread is not for political topics however.

i think it's Kuribayashi in the battle of Ioujima Island
en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tadamichi_Kuribayashi

Why you mad ? I originally wanted to bait japanese but i ended up baiting some japanese worshipping pole, Jow Forums never fails to surprise me lol.
it was not politics but commiting suicide was culture thing coming from warring states period i remember

>ドラーフ博士
だろうなあ…

>you don't need to pay much attention to pronunciations of non-Japanese word though..

See, people used to make fun of me for making a similar joke (蟻が塔・刀), but there's even an image macro for it.

Stop writing like a nigger.

Yeah, I was just trying to figure out if it's a foreign name of a famous person.

elves aren't niggers desu :(

need a list of terms for brothers/sisters in a family

長男 / 長女
次男 / 次女
三男 / 三女

what do you call the youngest brother/sister in a family?

Tosha

末男/末娘

which one is more common, 末女 or 末娘? my tiny bird brain can't learn both

末男(末息子)/末娘
(and from elder siblings view, they are 末弟/末妹)
But all are relatively uncommon words lately.
Both are called
>末っ子
altogether in today's society.

>all this activity all of a sudden
Is this the power of summer?

I want to learn Japanese. Please spoonfeed me

Well, since you asked...

djtguide.neocities.org/

Read the guide or you'll never learn it

It's the power of shitposting making everyone leave the jp thread

Oh, I see.

Should I learn Hiragana by paper/pencil or using an App?

I have both the threads open and the difference is like day and night.

Writing is fun

Which is better for learning. I want to understand basic moonrunes by December

You can learn hira and kata in less than 2 days.

Stop wasting time asking pointless questions and start memorising them

Do I have to memorize what they look/sound like or go as far as memorizing how they're written?

What? You're the one learning you idiot, figure out how much you need by yourself.

Are we currently on American summer break? Because the flood of retarded burgers like the one above has been pretty constant for about 2 weeks now.

> just realized Anki let's you set different new words for different decks

Well this makes me feel stupid.

Attached: 1487033629147.png (300x300, 9K)

What kanji is this?

極秘

へのへのもへじ

The fuck? Blew my mind.

Hiragana isn't kanji

It's the name of the kanji.
Kanji doesn't have to be Unicoded in order to exist; all it takes is that you believe in it.
Check out this kanji ㌔
And this one

bump

how long would it take me to learn japanese from basically zero to being able to read soseki, dazai, or mashima?

>mashima

about tree fiddy, I reckon

>mashima
shit, mishima yukio. mb I have no idea why I messed that up.

That depends whether you're using a dictionary and what level of comprehension you want.

What does it feel like to actually learn Japanese?

Try it, you'll find out

I'm still weeks away from being able to even start. I bet it feels nice.

the feeling of adventure slowly fades away

Is that when it's time to move on to Mandarin?
