How can I learn Japanese 名無し 12/07/2023 (Thu) 14:11:27 No. 683 [Reply]
my fellow man's of culture in /jp/... HOW TO LEARN JAPANESE? I think some here already can read and understand some basic level of japanese. I don't want to do grammar books because most of them are... A bit of waste of time? I dunno. And I am veeeryy lazy to do anki cards. I was learning the kanji radicals but I stopped by one day and I lost my streak currently I only know Hiragana. I really wanted to learn because there is a lot's of japanese media that simply isn't translated, and I can't enjoy because: >oopsie your nihongo level is N minus 6, owari da Anyway, how do you guys learn? Don't recommend me Duolingo. I HATE this partyvanrd.

>>683 Sharing experience : I had one half a year break when I was learning and it took 1.5 weeks to catch up. If you feel like you literally cant go on anymore you can try taking a break but keep thinking about japanese so that your brain will automatically motivate you to pick up again in some time, i cant promise it will work for you but thats the tactics I use for everything i learn I also used https://jpdb.io/ instead of anki because it has cool features sch as going through each word of a videogame or an anime chronologically
>>
>>683 https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLA_RcUI8km1NMhiEebcbqdlcHv_2ngbO2&si=-Lnu0SCwBnNQuCxE i enjoy TokiniAndy's videos going over Genki 1 grammar. he explains the concepts in a way that's easy for me to understand. good supplementary material me thinks.
>>
>>729 >>1381 my fucking god i can't even imagine putting this much effort into something. all i did was read a few guides on the internet and then just started figuring out the grammar and vocabulary piece by piece through reading and listening. took me a while to be able read much but i could never do shit like memorizing anki cards or studying kanji because i fucking hate studying. though i started doing all of this when i was young and not long after i really started caring about anime so maybe it's different for people who started learning as an adult because of brain stuff. i do want to have a fun discussion about japanese grammar with you so please talk to me about anything you find interesting. also explain the n levels shit to me because i don't get it.
>>
>>1384 Your japanese level is measured from n5 to n1 n5 is the first and most basic and then n1 is cooler then an average native I think. U need to take an official test somewhere to determine what level u are and get a certificate so u can put it in ur resume or something Your learning way is pretty cool when it works because it means you probably percieve the language similar to japanese people. I wonder if you can understand bits of chinese text though?
