everyone's at the uni or at work and I'm just a useless neet
at least I can put a lot more energy in my nihongo

bump
Justin Green
Kinda wish I could do a neet year to go full nihongo mode. Oh well the grass is always greener on the other side isn't it?

Alexander Garcia

Hunter White
Thanks and バンプ

By the way generally バンプ means bump of chicken that is the popular band in Japan.
Caleb Murphy
>その他大勢の常識を天才の俺様に当てはめんじゃねーよ。
I get that Japanese tend to shuffle around parts of speech relatively freely, but it seems to be confusing as to what the direct object really is in this case (I already have an idea on what the sentence translates to via a localization). Also, I don't get 当てはめんじゃねーよ means.
Many foreign anons tend to use バンプ as a direct conversion to kana, contributing to the confusion.
Justin Murphy
I love that OP pic. But then I've always been an Asuka kinda guy.
いい質問ですね~ oh a good question!! i answer your question seriously. it isn't the small シ(si) but the small ツ(tsu). the small ツ pronunciation does not exist in English.this pronunciation is peculiar in east asian.For instance,the small ツ is used in (なっとう) natto which tastes and smells awful. this point is important to pronounce japanese but likely to be overlooked.
the great teacher named Google told me .^-^
Thomas Perry
But there is no consonant after ッ. How is it spelled when ends a word?
Jacob Roberts
ありがとうございます! I have seen っ in the middle of words before, but haven't seen it at then end of a word yet, so this makes sense. ドンッ
Josiah Stewart
if there is no consonant after the small ツ,japanese will hold the previous vowel's breath. it is no problem in writing the small ツ after ends a word. you can see examples of use in japanese reading or manga.

From what I've seen, a few Brazilians and Australians are just as bothersome as that disruptive Canadian. Even Americans can be pretty annoying sometimes, not just on DJT but on this board in general.

I find Anki quite boring. I'm halfway through Tae Kim's grammar guide and I was thinking of starting Yotsuba after I finish the guide.
Good plan? I probably won't give up Anki completely but I prefer reading.

Landon Reed
I feel like there aren't any Americans who are good at Japanese in this thread. I rarely see an intelligent, knowledgeable post about this language that is accompanied by the stars and stripes
Isaac Peterson
How to be an old lady: Just fuck up all the vowels.
No problem. In fact, you can start reading Yotsuba on day one if you use the reading pack for the first two volumes. Keeping Anki to a bare minimum is always an option, but you definitely need SRS to compensate for the decades of exposure you didn't have as a non-native.
Robert Evans
You can start reading Youtsuba with the reading pack after the Basic Grammar section of Tae Kim desu. I mean, you'll be looking up words and phrases all the time but you should be able to figure out what they are saying even if you can't directly translate it.

You're clearly new and making baseless observations on a thread that has been dying for the past few months. There's been plenty of intelligent US posters in the past. Unfortunately now with N6 retards flocking to the /jp/ thread ruining that one, and this thread constantly disappearing due to inactivity, there's no reason for any upper-level learners to bother posting (/jp/ will just ignore it and continue blogposting, and here it will go unnoticed since the thread dies anyways).

By holding your hand out open, not clenching it tight, and letting the water flow in by itself.

I don't understand this phrase too well: ぐだぐだが引き立っちゃいます! Exhaustion stands out? Repetitiveness stands out? I'm at a loss here, what does this actually mean?
Imagine Japanese to be like a really really colossal, unrelenting dildo. Like, not your mom's 14", spiked, ribbed black dildo, oh no sir. This dildo is gargantuan. It is the Ur-Dildo, the Dildo that makes lesser men weep and throw themselves down meekly begging for mercy.
Now, for some reason you kinda want to put that thing inside of you. (It's ok, we don't judge here, this is a safe space.)
The important thing is to relax your sphincter and just let the pain pass as it slides inside. It will hurt, you will cry, you will scream, you will beg to remove that thing from your ass. Your body will involuntarily reach in self-preservation to pull it out. You will complain all over the Internet, looking for ways to ease the experience. But don't give up! Just relax, just relax. Remember to breathe. And day after day, by practicing, by trying over and over and over again (and relaxing!) over time that stern, unyielding, unrelenting dildo will fuck your boypussi nice and smooth. And one day, some glorious distant faraway day, you will find yourself stooped over a light novel, TVO playing in the background, and you will suddenly smirk... Then smile, then giggle, then finally cry tears of laughter at the heavily Osaka-accented story of the 噺家. It will make perfect sense, it will be the greatest joke you've ever heard. You will achieve Satori, and jubilate as you achieve the orgasm of enlightenment, as you now finally understand Japanese... At the expense of your butthole, you will have become one with the dildo.
That's what learning Japanese is all about.
John Cook
which part's giving you trouble?
Adam Cooper

Jack Ortiz
youtube.com/watch?v=ZgqXOu34rlQ Not anime but, 宇多田. The first time I saw the KH:CoM commercial I instantly fell in love with the song that played during it. When I went to go look it up online I also came across the Japanese version. It was the first time I had heard Japanese; little me thought the way the language sounded was 素晴らしい as fuck.
Josiah Green
So, it was a long time ago. I was new to anime. Don't judge me. Although honestly, I heard the ending song and I liked it. I wanted to listen to it and understand it in Japanese, so I promptly set out to learn Japanese for a week and then gave up for 9 years.
Don't worry comrade, I haven't brushed my teeth in 17 years.
Jose Stewart
I'm not sure /sci/ would be interested in ways to optimize Anki reps and retention rates.
Owen Nelson
I'm sure they would be interested in discussing the relationship between fluoride and human intelligence. Or are you afraid of trying to argue with people who actually give a fuck about your off-topic shit?
Alexander Jenkins
>Or are you afraid of trying to argue with people who actually give a fuck about your off-topic shit? I don't argue with science deniers. Studies from Harvard hold more weight than shitdicks on /sci/. Also I don't remember you getting mad when whale oil was being regularly discussed here as a way to augment retention rates. To you have a dog in this race? Your aunt work for the local water treatment plan? Calm down, and don't forget to avoid fluoride!
Gavin Garcia
Report and ignore, brothers. Remember, leafs are the australians of the Americas.
Evan Jenkins
Why not go tell them about those studies, then? Exercise also affects learning, but that doesn't mean workout routine discussion is DJT-related.
Jaxson Nelson
Actually Americans are the worst posters on Sup Forums. See . You monolingual mutts are useless in language threads.
Nathan Howard
>but that doesn't mean workout routine discussion is DJT-related. It is. Any advice we can give people that helps them learn the language is DJT related. A lot of NEETs don't understand the effect staying active has on the brain. It certainly is something that shouldn't be underestimated, same with avoiding fluoride, and making sure you get enough iodine, which affect cognitive functions.
Luis Young
It isn't. Everything that pertains to the human mind is directly or indirectly relevant to learning Japanese, but boards and threads are divided by topics, and this thread happens to be about learning Japanese, not exercising or proper nutritional intake or how to lead a mentally healthy lifestyle or driving tips so you can spend less time stuck in traffic and more time studying Japanese. It's pretty sad that you choose to spend your time trying to derail a learning thread of all things.
Camden Richardson
More sad that you're spending your time getting butthurt about it
Landon Allen
Why wasn't it problematic when whale oil was being memed everyday on here for like a year? Also, most topics have overlap, and not permitting people to discuss anything that overlaps with something else would make for a pretty shitty website. In your world, we couldn't discuss Anki troubleshooting because that is exclusive Sup Forums territory.
Michael Brown
>getting butthurt about it Or even responding to it. He's clearly a troll. Just ignore him. Here, have a waifu.
Hudson Flores
>Stop discussing fluoride! >Here, have a waifu Holy fuck you people are retarded, and obviously from /jp/.

I would like to but I'm currently trying to learn grammar as I read along (i.e. only study a grammar point when needed) as I don't have much free time as before. Thank you for the link.

>熱の反動で寒気を覚えたように彼女は震え、しかし凍える際には出ない、甘い声を何度も溢れさせていく。 What does しかし凍える際には出ない mean here?
Ryder Wilson
I'm 100% into 10k for a while now and my grammar is still ass, this is normal, only reading experience and endless googling and pondering of why the fuck does it work like this (though there's often no good explanation in either language) and asking questions in threads like these eventually helps.
Do read tae kim or some other grammar guide though if you still haven't, that should be a start.
Gavin Kelly
I'm not 100% sure but to me it seems that 出ない refers to 甘い声, so perhaps it means that though she's shivering, this sweet voice wouldn't be coming out if she was actually freezing.
Joshua Turner
I think it's just parsed as 出なくて甘い声, as in a stifled, sweet voice. しかし凍える際には feels like "Moreover, for every time a chill runs through her body." I could be misunderstanding it anyways.
Elijah Jackson
I agree with this fella.
Ayden Clark
官能小説っぽいなwww she shivers as if she felt cold in heat recoil, but she has put out the sweet voice which doesn't come out in freezing many times.
