DJT is a Japanese language 勉強スレ for 人達 interested in the language, anime, manga, visual novels, light novels and Japanese video games. Japanese speakers learning English are welcome, too.
Is it bad practice to flip on english subs to check understanding of what you're listening to?
Carter Sanchez
Yes. You're only wasting your time.
Isaiah Thompson
You don't even need to be good at Japanese to be able to converse in it.
Evan Scott
Why?

Most translations aren't 1 to 1 with the original, and even if they were you're not going to improve your comprehension by reading the english captions. If you're just worried about not understanding the narrative, you might as well watch it in english altogether. Then at least you won't be wasting your time.

This is not a PDF file you were after but it is something you can use to convert to one. The file is 「imabi.html」, the other files are the images used in that guide. my.mixtape.moe/fctecr.zip

Who writes the N tests? Why do they seem so stilted and awkward and wrong?
Robert Cox
What the fuck does that N even mean
Leo Gomez
Where can I find blank previous exams of Noken exams? I just want to see N5 exercises to see how much of a dekinai I'm yet and find out what should I start improving

you are very dekinai and literally need to improve everything learn japanese before worrying about some stupid tests

>>polyglots I really wanna hear the boy in the video in the previous thread speak in Japanese. Even though it would be prerequisite to have some opportunities for commucating with native speakers for learning some elements such as difference of nuances between synonyms, he would fill those gaps within several, or even a couple of months if he gets to have those opportunities.
>on Jow Forums almost daily for the past 12 years since I was 16 years old and it has helped my conversational English more than anything else. What did you parents think of or have they ever commented on your staying up in front of computer every night and becoming more and more proficient in English, then now having turned into Japanese?
>Taking the N1 myself. Feeling good about it. Nice, me too. I was worried about it until about two months ago, when I did the sample questions and got 100% without even really trying.
Jaxson Davis
Poleposter is literally the only thing that prevents this thread from being good
I took a few sample questions and only fucked up the meaning of いたわる (I mined it with the kanji and I struggle with it already in Anki) and one grammar question because they were all pretty similar (the answer was ところで). The audio is always fucked so I never went past the reading questions.
Why does JLPT N5 even exist? Like at N5 level you're not capable of really doing anything It's paying $50 to take a test that means nothing
Matthew Rogers
N2, I don't know, I've been scoring lower lately. Maybe I'm burnt out we'll see tomorrow I guess. Pass or fail, N1 next year for me. Really rushed the decision this year but if I had a whole year, it wouldn't be a problem I think.
What are you guys doing to prepare in the last hours? I'm going to be early tonight, maybe watch a movie, clean my place in the morning so at least it's tidy when I come back.

Noah Torres
I'm going through Shin Kanzen Master N1 grammar since reading/listening are pretty universal, and I don't see the grammar they'll test on very much.
>What are you guys doing to prepare in the last hours? I've been playing a lot of JRPGs, but that's not really any different from how I've been studying for 6 months now anyway.
Justin Russell
First thread I've seen in a while where literally zero Japanese is being discussed. I'm sure the blogposting here is much better suited for Discord.
Gabriel Brown
If those are those back of the book questions before the mock exam I stopped doing those, good questions I guess but didn't feel really that relevant.
I'm excited to returning to reading and just doing reps.
Cameron Powell
Stop posting
Jaxson Miller
German or Polish posters, can't tell which one kills off the threads the most... Though I'd say US posters are starting to give them a run for their money.
Jackson Jenkins
I'm on task to be N3 next time. Should I attempt N2 anyway or take N3. Is N3 at all useful for job prospects? I've got a bachelor's in computer science already.
Angel Perez
Anyone here ever play an MMO in Japanese?
Wyatt Fisher
I went from N5 to N2 in a year, you can do it.
Aaron Perez
J-CAT placed me at N3, so I one upped it to N2, might not pass but I didn't see sense to pay for a test I could probably pass.
Gabriel Morgan
How to learn kanji? I'm too lazy to do boring studying
Juan Jackson
Worth changing my font to something that displays 八 without the thingy on top, or does it actually see much usage that way? Watching Anime
