particularly the insight that every japanese sentence has a subject marked with が, whether explicit or implied by the context

it's always a fun moment when you get to learn a word that has been adopted into English from Japanese and see what the kanji that make it up are - drawing letter = emoji, of course it's a letter that's also a drawing!

the person who i'm pretty sure is behind the account was posting on their facebook on the day the patreon post got put up so i think the android sensei is just being retired. bummer though, i had grown quite fond of her quirks

Do people really do Wanikani and never bother with the vocab? I just don’t see the point of that at all.

as many kanjis as i've learned i can't for the life of me read a single handwritten or "handwritten font" one
― diamonddave85 (diamonddave85), Thursday, 6 January 2022 22:31 (two years ago) link
i'm thinking of writing an anki plugin to randomly cycle the font for my cards between gothic, mincho, and handwritten
― diamonddave85 (diamonddave85), Thursday, 6 January 2022 22:32 (two years ago) link
I could sort of start to recognize most of them except the most outside one on Wanikani.
― The Door into Summerisle (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 6 January 2022 22:46 (two years ago) link
i assume knowing how to write makes reading handwriting easier, thats obviously the big thing missing from the wanikani approach
― ciderpress, Thursday, 6 January 2022 22:46 (two years ago) link
True, but writing properly is even more work. Had I but world enough and time etc.
― The Door into Summerisle (James Redd and the Blecchs), Thursday, 6 January 2022 22:48 (two years ago) link
There are plugins for Wanikani and it’s apps to cycle through fonts.
― American Fear of Scampos (Ed), Friday, 7 January 2022 05:18 (two years ago) link
Armed Banana by far the hardest font on Wanikani to recognize. Just put it back into rotation, we’ll see. Easy enough to click and see the regular font.
― The Door into Summerisle (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 8 January 2022 14:08 (two years ago) link
Took it back off, still too hard.
― The Door into Summerisle (James Redd and the Blecchs), Saturday, 8 January 2022 14:17 (two years ago) link
haha yeah I hacked together an Anki plugin and quickly took armed banana out of the rotation. might set up a separate deck of my mature cards to practice with that font though

HI DERE. Trying to restart my wanikani after pretty much a year layoff. Think I have an approach that might work.
― My Little Red Buchla (James Redd and the Blecchs), Tuesday, 2 August 2022 17:49 (one year ago) link
timely revive since this friday will mark 1 year of anki daily flashcards without missing a day. i'm very happy with my progress and i think my approach of focusing on reading and just getting japanese text in front of my eyes is working great.
at this point, while reading manga i could probably only translate 50% of what i read, but feel like i understand the gist of 90% of the text. playing games is a lot lower since there aren't picture cues for nearly every sentence, but it's coming slowly but surely.
as for speaking.... yeah i can't really do that but i've definitely picked up the pronunciation of a whole lot of kanji just from doing the flashcards.
皆さん、お疲れ様です〜、頑張れ!!
