How hard can it be? Half of your words are English loanwords anyway.

I think they can't grasp the grammar, since it's so different from their language.
Hence they can't construct setences properly if they have to rewire their brain to the way anglos think when they talk.
Loan some words that are gravely mispronounced is completely unrelated to the problem

>never bothered studying any english for school
>always got max grade because I spent my childhood playing vidoegames and watching movies in english

Because education in Japan is about grinding memorization and repetition rather than reflexion and creative use of the tool you've been given.
That's why they probably could learn and recite the whole English dictionnary and the complete set of grammar rules, without being able to build a sentence out of it.

And of course, as for all languages, there's the problem of reading theoretical English on the chalkboard and actually listening to proper English.

The fact they use kana to learn the pronunciation is retarded too. When a teacher write an English word on his board, he also writes it with the corresponding kana, which is a terrible way for the students to learn, and why they say "emoshon doriru" instead of "emotion drill": because they just read the kana that are actually saying "e-mo-sho-n do-ri-ru"

this imho it just boils down to the fact that yellow people just memorize and copy things instead of thinking for themselves

This.
I learned more english with videogames with shit dubs than in any school year.
Up to getting back to uni and get A grades in mandatory specialised english without effort.

Just find some PSX games in english to pirate, and play them.

Same here. Except I got the max grade.

Do what this guy does

They're thought to memorize the books, not think. In fact I heard from some Japanese students that they get bad grades if they put something that's not in the book.

For example dunno in Colgateland but here you're told to read a book/text/whatever and then you're told to explain what you read in your own words or talk about the topic in your own words. If you copypaste what's in the book you'll get bad grades. In Japan it's the opposite.

English is worse because they're not told to speak in english, they teach them grammar and all that, it's useful but it's only 1 of 4, the other three are listening that's normally done with a CD that plays dialogues and you need to fill the blanks in conversations(this in a basic level), reading where you practice your reading skills and the culmination is speaking where you have conversations and apply knowledge from the other three.

Two words: Katakana pronunciation.

The sooner you get over that hurdle, the better.

>mfw by the end of 6th grade I already had better english skills than the average adult japanese

nah it's just the shitty education and no exposure to the actual language

My english is awful, can't communicate using more than 20 words..
Let's die together.

>All these plebs not knowing English when they were like 5
