It's really consuming to cut your sleep just to make a new thread with a template you like. I can think of many other ways to use one's time more productively though.
Can any of you guys redpill me on the aspects of kanji? I mean things like when do you need to use one of the two different pronunciations (the original chinese one and the japanese one), when you're supposed to use it in a sentence or just write things with kana, etc

>need to use one of the two different pronunciations I don't know what exactly you are asking about. But there's a word first, and which kanji to be used to write it is decided later.
I read on many Internet guides that all kanji have at least two different possible pronunciations, the original one being the one that's derived from the original chinese sound of the kanji, and the japanese one that was the one already in use in japan before kanji was implemented in the japanese speech When do you use these different pronunciations for the same kanji?

Those two ways are called “訓読み/KUNYOMI” and “音読み/ONYOMI. If you can know the meaning of the Kanji with its sound, it’s 訓読み. If you can’t understand with its sound, it’s 音読み.

>When do you use these different pronunciations when??? Like for 人, it's read 'hito (Japanese)' when it's used independently but it's 'nin (Chinese)' when it's used as a numeral counter... am I answering your question?
Can someone tell me more about the part time job situation in japanese high schools? How common is it for HS to ban it, how strongly is it enforced, how many students go and do part time jobs, things like that.

I used to work for a bakery. I loved it.

I went to a private school, and arubaito was prohibited. Actually we are all busy with studies and club activities, there was no time or energy left for arubaito for extra cash.
Levi Sanders
I should also add, what about situations in which the students comes from a lot income house hold and they need the extra income.
Our family is relatively well-off but it doesn't mean I could buy anything.
Jordan Martin
Yeah, my classmates all worked in many places, like MacDonald, 7-11s, etc. I don't know about other schools but I guess it was pretty much the same for non-private schools.
Thanks for the explanation guys I'm not actively learning japanese right now, but I'm playing with the kana and I found it interesting so far But kanji tends to make people scary most of the times because there are so many of them and they have many different meanings depending on context, I have absolutely no idea on how to go about it
Tyler Kelly
そうそう。安いところもあるけどね。 There are a lot of club activity choices in private schools, and they have more advantages in going to colleges. It may be cheaper than paying extra for sport clubs and preparatory schools.
Ryan Allen
What about the school, was it allowed?

>no idea on how to go about it I have no idea what's like to learn japanese as a foreign language. and probably kanji that stops me from learning it.
Evan Green
Yeah. The school didn't say anything about it. Well they didn't encourage us, but didn't stop us either.

How many years did it take for you to learn english? I suppose most non japanese people never reach acceptable fluency in the language before like 10 years of study
Isaac Robinson
you like a troll much as usual
Dominic Price
>I suppose most non japanese people never reach acceptable fluency in the language before like 10 years of study I was referring to the japanese language in that sentence, I don't know if it got out of context or something, but english isn't as hard as japanese it seems
Gabriel Reed
i'm still learning.
Hudson Mitchell
>10 years it doesn't take that long especially when you are younger. i know a lot of non-Japanese people who become fluent enough to hold every day conversation with native speakers in less than 12 months of living in Japan.
