Having far surpassed the N5 and 4, I can say that test is complete fucking dogshit.
Camden Stewart
Okay, N3-kun. Now go back to studying jouyou kanji.
Julian Myers
It's a shit test that is in no way reflective of a person's Japanese skill.
Joshua Nguyen
>no way reflective of a person's ______ skill So a test?
Jayden Morales
>mfw I discover a new chinese compound
Xavier Lee
Why do Japanese people glorify sex and violence a lot?
It's fucking weird...
I was watching a Jap porn and the girl dropped fucking candle wax all over her body...
Could any Jap respond why?

Christian Miller
>porn >representative for anything come on now
burgers demonize sex and nudity, but have the biggest porn industry in the world... sometimes different parts within a society have different dynamics
Camden Wilson
What is lady snowblood, battle royale, suicide circle and a bunch of other fucked up shit Japs like?
Zachary Cooper
so what, there are american and european movies that are just as bad and worse
please be stupid somewhere else
Gavin Harris
Some Japanese pornography has criminal matters. Some porn actresses have serious problems in mind and body. In recent years, police will move if there is a report from a porn actress.
There is also a porn company arrested by the police. However, this movement is still limited.
Because Japanese women do not see such porn videos, it is difficult for criminals to be detected.
Jace Barnes
There is literally nothing wrong with 灸.
>what is Mordum
Kevin Hall
Yeah but these were popular films, unlike those shitty american ones.
A LOT of Japs liked it. That's why it's fucked up.
Connor Cruz
What brought you here?
Easton Walker
many people love zombie movies or 28 Days later, where people get eaten alive, mutilated and all kinds of other shit, and that's a popular genre or at least it used to be I don't know why you have some weird fixation on japan when we're arguably even worse
that being said, there's also a cultural difference
in japan there's a stronger distinction between public and privacy... you can have your weird hobbies and fetishes and shit as long as you don't let it interfere with your public appearance and behaviour, they don't psychologize everything to death like we do I'm speaking here about tendencies of course, you'll probably find lots of examples for the opposite
Juan Torres
How are you supposed to pronounce 代表? It sounds almost as if they're making an "sh"( ʃ ) sound but with like a weird lisp noise.
Adam Ortiz
>popular = fucked up Kill yourself, you're from the country of favela funk.
Jaxon Russell
try doing it like that that shi sound but with the tip of your tongue curled, touching the area bellow your lower front teeth while keeping slight overbite
Christian Turner

>working through tobira when I encounter this sentence I don't think I've even read a sentence half this long until now. Maybe it's just because I know nothing about baseball that makes this harder to understand.
>A pro Japanese baseball player for 9 years who is now a player in the American MLB answered in an interview, "Batters breaking their own bat after a strikeout, pitchers throwing their gloves in lockers after being hit (????) are things I've been surprised to see, and thinking about the people on the receiving end of these acts (????), I absolutely cannot do such a a thing myself."
Any corrections for this?
Joshua Butler
>and thinking about the people on the receiving end of these acts (????) I think he actually means the people that made the bats, gloves and such
Samuel Morris
>want to read manga >can't be fucked to memorize useless words like Southern land and demon world
What do I do?
Daniel Richardson
That makes more sense but what's the くれた trying to convey with it, then? Apparently one of the meanings of 作る is "commit (a sin, etc)" so that's where I got my original interpretation from.
Also not sure about "pitchers throwing their gloves in lockers after being hit", unless 打つ can also mean giving a kind of strike (foul) in sports in which case it makes a bit more sense.
> 何かを買ってくれた、奢ってくれた、と言いたい場合は特に何もつけず、 > She bought me a lunch. 彼女はランチをご馳走してくれた。 > でOKです。

>but what's the くれた trying to convey with it, then? he's basically saying the people that made the gloves, bats. etc. for them or were so kind to produce them kind of feeling it's not really different from that verb+くれてありがとう kind of construction for example
>Also not sure about "pitchers throwing their gloves in lockers after being hit", 2bh I no nothing about baseball, but maybe he literally justs means getting hit, because I assume this hurts rather badly, but again, no idea
Gabriel Phillips
What's with the 気を in sentences like >気を取り直して素足のまま、板張りの台所へ。 I really don't understand that word/phrase.
Gabriel Diaz
there's not much to memorize when you know the reading 魔界 the meaning of the word and the kanji are as straightforward as it gets
