This is a Japanese language learning thread for people interested in anime, manga, visual novels, light novels and Japanese video games. Japanese speakers learning English are welcome, too.
Honestly I have no clue why people threw a shitfit and left or something last thread, this is one of the best threads on Jow Forums and I'm willing to upkeep that, everyone else just bitched and shat up the thread instead.
Is "wo" still taught in schools or something? An odd amount of beginners seem to use it and I don't know why
Camden Perez
It's mandatory in writing, especially because "o" is also a particle with a different function. They teach it in schools for the same reason they teach that you need to write は instead of わ for the subject marker.
Nobody knows for sure, but if I recall right. There was some German study done on it, where they made people listen shit during their sleep and then woke them up. The other group was sleep deprived though.
why is the kanji count of SAO at 2,731 in the library? that can't be right
Brayden Campbell
They had to name their meme attacks somehow
Ayden Morales
そんなことをするやつの気が知れない. I can't imagine what would make someone do such a thing. こんなものをうまがって食べる人の気が知れない. I ┌can't understand [don't see] how anyone could ┌enjoy (eating) stuff like this [actually like this sort of thing].
Zachary Martin
I skimmed over the first volume, but couldn't see much of the extraordinary and there are no furigana that would come with complicated meme kanji you see some stuff like 真鍮 爬虫類 釣り竿 etc. but that's about it
that's alright, I can still read this. I sometimes write in a way that I am unable to read the shit I myself wrote.
Thomas Torres
That's awful. Legible, but awful. Try slowing down, or better yet, get those kanji box paper things. If you put some decent effort in getting your kana looking better, your handwriting might improve as well
Jack Clark
I've read worse
Xavier Reed
it's just for personal use obviously so I won't bother with writing neatly that's pretty much how it looks like when I write something down quickly and continue reading
Andrew Campbell
The fourth volume specifically has the high count thanks to words like 須臾, 蹉跌, 瞋恚, 端倪 and 種籾. I guess the author was playing with a thesaurus?
Gavin Thompson
What is the card with the highest amount of lapses in your deck /djt/? Mine is 静寂 at 14.
Bentley Bell
4 cards have hit my lapse limit of 12: 詰る 奉る 疎か 塗れる
Anthony Cox
Is this normal? I've been doing anki for a bit more than a month, but lately it feels like the words have gotten much harder to learn. I used to have over 55% correct most of the time, but it has been tanking lately.
I had to slow down personally and only add 10 new a day, which at the same time limits my reviews and my recollection is way up after that. Also reviews are way more manageable.
Julian Brooks
No, I have it set to only 20 new cards per day. I just had a ton of cards to review today, because I got frustrated over the last few days, and didn't finish my reviews.
that's the number of answers you made, not the number of reviews you had install true retention
Alexander Rogers
stop copying computer screen fonts for kanji, find a kaisho or kyoukasho font and imitate it as well make sure you're writing kanji with a coherent stroke order. you can write kana however you want as long as they don't look like other kana, but kanji have to be written coherently or they come out ugly and blocky like yours
James Martin
>pic neat

おやすみ
see I have no interest in improving anything about my writing
either give up on writing now or start planning on gradually improving it to a reasonable level one stroke at a time as you hone your nihongo
Landon Brown
Why does deleting your RTK deck and accepting that you'll redo it later if you want to write or visualize kanji better feel so freeing?

Japanese should use Ateji and Ryakuji for everything, it would make kanji so much better, no more bullshit long chain onyomi words. Just superior Ateji and Ryakuji Use a Computer
