DJT is a Japanese language learning thread for advanced むっつりスケベ共 that are interested in the language, anime, manga, visual novels, light novels and Japanese video games. Japanese speakers learning English are welcome, too.
how can I learn/remember vocabulary? is anki enough? I've seen a shit ton of people saying anki doesn't work
Nolan Wright
Anki works well at the start, then you have to read shit for 10 years

so should I download the 2k deck from itazuraneko or something else? also how many words are enough for a day? I haven't studied japanese for like a year and I really regret that
just do 20 in the beginning and see how it feels like. if you feel like increasing the number, go ahead. otherwise decrease it. everyone has their own limits, also it depends on how much time you want to spend every day on doing your reviews.
2k is usually recommended. what i personally think is great about it, is that every vocab has a voiced example sentence. however, after using it for a while now, I noticed that a bunch of word definitions are quite weird compared to the dictionaries, so i oftentimes find myself changing the cards. also be sure to use it in the correct word order
Juan Flores
thanks a lot. fortunately, word order isn't a problem for me since turkish is my mother tongue
Hunter Perez
>word order isn't a problem for me since turkish is my mother tongue
interestingly it's still similar to us. you don't have to follow a particular word order during a casual talk. btw thanks a lot, I won't bluntly call japanese s-o-v from now on
Does it not have 3-5k kanji decks? I want to learn 3k to be on a really good level.
Anthony Wilson
are you asking for a deck which only includes kanji?
Gabriel Brooks
Yes
Luke Brooks
i only know the RTK one which has ~2.2k but i mean, you can always add kanjis that arent included on your own

>5k kanji 中二病
Henry Miller
don't do that, just learn words
Samuel Anderson
Fuck, is that my only option? Having a 3-5k deck seems much easier and time saving than having to mine for new kanji every now and then.
Parker Sanders
I don't think it's THAT much extra effort. also you will learn the remaining ones just by personally I have a kanji-only deck too. I just like to study them isolated aswell, but ofc it's completely optional. it's not much effort anyway. I spent like 5 minutes per day on that deck but it already helps me.

Look, the guide represents collective wisdom. A number of people followed its advise and succeeded. What it tells you to do __in order to learn Japanese__ is tested and reliable way that has by now been optimized. You brains are not any different from other. It is the optimal way for you too. If you are going to try reinventing the wheel you just lose you time and that is that. Everything you can possibly imagine has already been tried and rejected before.

Any sites out there that focus on uploading the Japanese dub of western cartoons?
Does anyone use Kobo ereaders? I'm trying to get a jp-en dictionary on it but the ones at mobileread.com/forums/showthread.php?t=197828 seem to be very lacking compared to something like JMdict which I use for YomiChan. I'm sure that it's possible to somehow convert JMdict into the kobo dictionary format but I have no idea how to
yes it seems "looks like they haven't had you ask that person about anything yet" but I think the author mistakenly used 訊く instead of 聞く so maybe the meaning of the line is to be as you guessed. "I feel like somewhat I haven't made it yet.." "somewhat I don't feel like I made it", maybe
it's a kind of mild pun(?), the guy is repeating the phrase "何かできる" and it sounds bit funny. first he said >'何かできる'ことはないですか >Is there something I could do (as the token of appreciation or apologize) and maybe he was gonna give her massage, right? Then as the senpai got embarrassed and told him to stop he replied >これでは'何かできた'気がしなくて >but (doing things by halves) like this, I don't feel like I really did something for you

It's the Easter weekend, so it's a long holiday here in Germany. Much like Christmas. Only no one is allowed to visit their families. I'll be staying at home as well of course and playing board games with friends over the internet. How is it for you?
正しく 正しい >and maybe he was gonna give her massage, right? Ah yes, she asked for a massage, but had to stop because she was too ticklish >but (doing things by halves) like this, I don't feel like I really did something for you So I should look at it as しなくて(よ)?
>It'll go the same as you 私どものところも臨時休業、在宅勤務などを経ながら5月の連休明けまで引き続き外出自粛を命ぜられる予定であります。 >the boss said like "you might as well do things like playing computer games.. OK!?"
