>>214356828
>What do I actually need for N3?
There's various lists of grammar and vocabulary out there for all the different N levels (don't forget you'll need to learn all the N4 and N5 stuff as well as the N3 stuff), once you've covered those you mainly need to mass consume reading and listening so you aren't too slow to keep up with the test or fail listening comprehension.
>and I'm level 10 in wanikani
This doesn't mean much if anything. Level 10 covers around 50% cumulative kanji of N5-N3, and 25% of N3 kanji only (https://www.wkstats.com/charts/jlpt <- this is only kanji not vocabulary).
Then again, that's literally only some theoretical kanji, you need to learn a lot more words than what Wanikani teaches you. Then there's reading speed, grammatical understanding, and listening comprehension. Take it from someone who finished WK, I am not even sure if I'd pass N2 due to lack of vocab.
>Got a test booked in December, am I gonna make it bros?
Depends how much of a 頑張り屋 you are from today on, but passing chances sound a bit 微妙 from what little information you gave (hold a conversation about nothing techincal? Level 10?). Maybe the JLPT tango decks and DoJG grammar deck would help you with some structure if you don't know what you know and don't know.

>>214356828
If my experience with N1 is any indicator nailing all the official mock questions on the JLPT site for your specific level is a guarantee that you will succeed on the actual exam

>>214365401
>韜晦 (とうかい)
Speaking as a native Japanese speaker, I didn't know this word, so I had to look it up on the Internet for its reading and meaning.
As far as I can tell from google, the kanji "韜" is apparently categorized into 日本漢字能力検定一級 (Level 1 of the Japan Kanji Aptitude Test).

一級 (Level 1) is the hardest test and its pass rate is anywhere from 5 to 15 percent.

>>214357238
Sounds tough. I'll need to get on that grammar and immersion grind I guess.
>>214357401
Doesn't sound too tough. The mock questions aren't too bad, sometimes I get tripped by a word I don't know or something

>>214356828
>https://web.archive.org/web/20220326112058/https://itazuraneko.neocities.org/learn/guide.html
Don't use wanikani, just use the anki RTK pack and write the kanji down during your reps (at least once, this is very important for memorization). Doing kanji through either method won't guarantee anything though since it's quite hard to infer the meaning of some words if you see them the first time, even with context in some cases (just won't click etc.). This especially under time limit constraints during an exam. So you need to add proper vocabulary reps relevant to the kanji that you know/are currently studying in order to really make a meaningful connection.

You should also look into some mock exams/past questions or books that give you mock questions like So Matome since you can find problematic areas with those. You don't need to do everything, just skim through the questions until you find something that you're not immediately confident on. This will cover a lot of your weaker areas.

>>214365962
>>214366322
Thanks japananons, it makes me feel relieved to know that the weird vocabulary in 沙耶の唄 is indeed rarely used.

>>214368712
What's so wrong about using Wanikani?
I feel like I've effectively learned many kanji and vocab that I didn't know before. When I see them in the wild I can immediately read the meaning and even the spelling. There's also quite a lot of vocab as well. I like it because of its ease of use, I can spend my efforts on something else.

Yes I'll look into earlier exams thanks.

>>214369449
My issue with wanikani is that it's essentially just a badly copied RTK homework with some extra functionality that you can get through anki anyways via a bit of editing and/or an addon (really just being able to use regex expressions in the search bar).
I teach online and I have two students studying for N4 and they make mistakes very often because of weird WK keywords they learned or because they try to construct word meanings using the WK keywords alone.
For what it's worth, RTK has equally dumb keywords for some things that just make things more confusing down the line, but the advantage with anki is that you can solve those problems with a "replace all" operation.
Anyways I'm pretty biased with WK because of those experiences and have seen people trip up due to stuff they learned from it. I generally can't recommend it because it will always nicer to have poweruser access to shit when you need it, which WK doesn't offer. I understand that people don't have all the time in the world to figure out how shit works on anki though and just want an out of the box solution. That's fine as long as it works for you and you're satisfied with the results.

A learner recreated wanikani in its entirety as an anki deck for free.

paying for it seems kind of pointless.

>I teach online

>>214371057
I see. I admit that it would be nice to have poweruser capabilities but for now it just feels so convenient that I think I will continue with it.

What sorts of mistakes do N4 student usually make?

>>214373424
I assume you're talking about WK users? They would stumble upon a word they hadn't seen before, and try to construct the meaning using keywords they had learned from WK.
This is probably not a good example, but let's assume you have never seen the word 学生 before. Trying to figure out what the word means using WK keywords alone would give you "study, life". And then it's easy to make the connection to student if it is told to you. "Ah, a student's entire life is study", you'd think, and then you'd never forget it because it's one of the easier words out there.
But if you're not sure and all you have is the keywords, then you may end up translating it as "curriculum" or "school life" in the moment, and then the meaning of the text you're reading would change drastically and you'd end up spending a lot of time trying to debug the part that went wrong in your reasoning when stuff eventually doesn't add up.

Then there's stuff with weird keywording.
I just looked through the wanikani anki deck posted here:
>>214372264
And there's stuff like the picture I posted, where 台's keyword (or meaning, as written here) is "machine", and that's supposed to help you remember the mnemonic and other subsequent ones based on their system. The problem is that 台 in actual use has more to do with platforms (more generically, flat surfaces you put stuff on). The kanji 台 if you look it up in a Japanese dictionary would come up with the definition of "platform" earlier than "counter for machines", which is how it is used here. Words like 土台 or 台車 come to mind.
The other problem in this case, is that there is another kanji that means "machine", which is 機. According to that anki deck, 機's keyword is also "machine", which makes things confusing. How are these two machines different? Unless WK has something that lets you know "hey, these two have the same keyword but actually they're different, here's how:", then imo you're getting ripped off.

大したものと思う、他人を教えるのは簡単なことじゃないよ
可愛いレスだけで満足だ( ^ω^ )。皆はアノンさんだから「先生」はちょっと恥ずかしいかも

あげる

>>214375643
Thanks! Just some things I spotted.
大したものと思う大したことだと思う
Small structure issue here, nouns and nominalized sentences need だ before と思う.
As for why こと instead of もの, こと generally refers to a more abstract "thing", in this case the action of teaching something. Generally you'd use this with concepts as opposed to physical objects, where もの would be more commonly used. You こと correctly in the second sentence.
他人を教える他人に教える
This doesn't work here very well because 教える generally wants something TO BE taught as its object, instead of people. So you could say 数学を教える or 言語学を教える, and the objects, as specified by を, would be maths and liguistics. If you want to specify the audience that will receive the effects of the action you have to use に.

And actually it would be a bit better to use a full stop here and continue the next part as its own sentence. Someone can correct me here but I feel like you'd want a stronger connection between two er, sentences(?) than just plain form.

So maybe something like this:
大したことだと思う。他人に教えるのは簡単なことじゃないよ。
But it feels a bit more stiff now, texting on the internet is its own language. Hopefully this didn't take too much away from the intended message.

Sorry to ask a strange question, but does English have interesting phrases which can be taken two ways as emphatic negation and as double negative (=affirmation)?

Japanese has the phrase ないものはない.

>emphatic negation
A: 1万円貸してくれない?
A: Do you want to lend me 10,000 yen?

B: だめだ、お金がない。
B: No, I'm broke.

A: そこをなんとか!
A: I'm begging you!

B: ないものはないよ。
B: I can't lend you what I don't have.

>affirmation
A: ハイキングに必要なものは全て買った?
A: Did you buy everything you need for a hike?

B: ああ、ないものはないよ! (=全部揃ってるよ!)
B: Yeah, everything is ready!

>>214376279
Sorry, looks like my arrows didn't get through this chickenshit geocities website. For readability:
大したものと思う ---> 大したことだと思う

>>214374207
While it's true that on a few occasions I've accidentally used the radical word instead of the actual kanji meaning I think that this is very rare as the radical words are usually the same as kanji meaning. Also, WK isn't just for kanji, they have 3x as many vocab as they have kanji. Maybe they should have more? idk

>>214376363
Australian English has a funny thing with negatives and affirmatives.
Yeah nah = no
Nah yeah = yes
But it's quite different from what you're looking for.

>>214376482
That's the issue though, you wouldn't know that the radical word is different from the kanji meaning unless you tripped over it.
Also I'm aware of the vocab bit, I assume it's like 7000-8000 words? It's not the worst thing ever but like I said, very locked down. Once you get into their system it's hard to port your knowledge base into a more freeform system like Anki (because of sunk cost) where you can for example, filter for words or kanji that you have problems with and change them around in hopes that it'll help with retention. There's very few one-size-fits-all solutions in education and this is WK's biggest shortfall. If it works it works and if it doesn't then you're fucked and stuck paying for the month.
At any rate if it works for you then that's good enough.

>>214376279
>Small structure issue here, nouns and nominalized sentences need だ before と思う.
I feel like in 口語 people often casually just drop だ before と思う regardless of whether it should be there or not just because it's easier, I could be wrong though, but thats why I dropped it.
>As for why こと instead of もの, こと generally refers to a more abstract "thing", in this case the action of teaching something
This will be useful. I can't say I've thought much about it until now. I've just generally defaulted to こと most of the time.
>This doesn't work here very well because 教える generally wants something TO BE taught as its object, instead of people. So you could say 数学を教える or 言語学を教える, and the objects, as specified by を, would be maths and liguistics.

This is one of the most difficult things for me to internalize. Poor usage of particles is probably the number one mistake of westerners. It's easy to mess up in various sentence structures even if I kind of know it. It is helpful to have it pointed out though so I can correct it. I think I just need to output more so I get more oops moments. I rewrite my particles every now and then because I notice it's completely wrong.

Thank you so much for the help!

The main problem with WK (other than the rigid system that made me loathe using the site) is the words it teaches you are pretty much only for learning those kanji. I got way more out of doing my self mined words in anki than I did most words in WK.
You learn so many nearly useless words in WK for months on end (or even years for most people) when in comparison to that people could pick up some slow paced shoujo romance and mine most of 日常会話 words immediately with no delay and immerse like crazy just for fun which makes you never forget any of the words. Meanwhile wanikani placed 寂しい at level 56 because of the kanji. One of the most common words you'll ever see which would take you a year to get to if you go max speed, but which realistically would take most WK users 2-3 years if not more. I'm sure you've already learned that word without WK which kind of goes to show how silly the system is.

>>214377253
>I feel like in 口語 people often casually just drop だ before と思う
Yeah I don't have any issues with that, but I feel like it's more of a spoken thing. When you're speaking it makes sense to abbreviate things because you're trying to keep the conversation tempo up (this is partly why things like ら脱ぎ言葉) happen. But when written it immediately stands out which is why I corrected it. I guess we just didn't match vibes here.
>defaulted to こと most of the time
Actually I take that back here, I consulted with my wife and she says 大したものだ works better than こと. I guess I should brush up on this as well.
>Poor usage of particles is probably the number one mistake of westerners
For this one I actually use a corpus to check what words are used with what particles if I'm not sure. I used to make a mistake a while back where I'd say ルールを従う because that made sense to me in my english-explained brain, but then I looked it up after someone corrected me and I've never forgotten it since (it's supposed to be ルールに従う).
I use this, it's not the best but it's extremely easy and fast to access

>>214377686
>But when written it immediately stands out which is why I corrected it. I guess we just didn't match vibes here.
It's good you told me, if it feels weird I will avoid doing it that one in particular. ら抜き is difficult to use so the only time I even touch it is わかんない because it sounds cute.
>Actually I take that back here, I consulted with my wife and she says 大したものだ works better than こと. I guess I should brush up on this as well.
I don't know how to explain why I picked もの that time. It just felt right for the situation for some unknown reason. I almost never use it either.
>I used to make a mistake a while back where I'd say ルールを従う
I could see that happening easily because ルールを守る is pretty common, but is a transitive verb unlike に反して/に従う
>https://nlb.ninjal.ac.jp/
Oh this is nice.

>>214378161
>ら抜き is difficult to use
This is one is really simple and you'd be right to think of it as getting lazy with your conjugations. Potential verbs can get quite messy phonetically because of all the tapped Rs you have to do in quick succession (られる), so you just pluck out the ら so you're left with:
食べられる--->食べれる
来られる--->来れる
起きられる--->起きれる
寝られる--->寝れる
I feel like these three are common enough that textbooks will just end up presenting them as exception verbs a decade or two from now.
Also in a sort of similar vein, I've seen a lot of Japanese use I-adjective conjugations for Na-adjectives and nouns, such as:
きれいじゃない--->きれいくない
無理じゃない--->無理くない
(Especially common as interrogatives, これ、無理くね?)
This is goes super bad into 若者言葉 territory though which, like, linguists talk about and other people hate? Your mileage may vary depending on who's listening if you use these.
>I don't know how to explain why I picked
>It just felt right for the situation for some unknown reason
This shit happens to me so often at this point I struggle to understand how I ever got here.
I can speak well but if you were to interrogate every decision I made I think 99% of my answers would be "cause it felt right" which is both a blessing and a curse and also completely useless when you're trying to explain shit to others which is why I really struggle with some questions the students have.
>Oh this is nice.
For the 教える thing specifically, if you look it up you'll see that most particles are split between を and に、 and if you click the tab that pairs 教える with に you'll have your answer right there. This is super nice cause it has tons of example sentences and you can skip having to ask a guy for a clarification. It's all scraped from stuff like Yahoo Chiebukuro and books/novels so it's all pretty contemporary Japanese.

>ルールに従う (correct)
>ルールを従う (incorrect)
This has reminded me that an assistant language teacher (native English speaker) corrected me when I mistook "listen to the music" for "listen the music" when I was in school.
I thought "listen the music" was grammatically correct since the act of listening to the music is 音楽を聞く, not 音楽に聞く in Japanese.
But back then I was too young and too dumb to understand why I have to put the "to" in between "listen" and "the music."

You hear something but you listen to it.
You see something but you look at it.
You speak a language but you talk in a language.
Prepositions in English are one of those things you just learn through exposure, often there isn't an obvious reason why you'd use one or the other.

I messed up.

Now that there are only a few days left before I leave to go study at a Japanese university, I'm pretty scared and anxious. I really hope I'll learn the language. Do you have any tips?

>>214406146

>>214406146
>Do you have any tips?
Learn by doing.
Your phone settings should be Japanese.
Your computer should be using Japanese locale.
You should watch Japanese television and media as often as possible.
Supplement with study of grammar while using your mother tongue.

>>214407046
I'm going over there specifically because I couldn't force myself to do these things where I live right now, I wanted to put myself in a position where I HAVE to learn Japanese. I'm mostly looking for advice on how to deal with anxiety

>>214407339
I start my uni induction tomorrow, i used to suffer real bad with anxiety too but thankfully im mostly over it.

Best advice i can give you is "take a moment".

What i mean by that is, if you're ever panicking or worried, stand up straight, unfurrow your brow, slacken your shoulders and breathe in and out slowly for a few seconds. Close your eyes if you need to. Then try to think clearly, ask yourself stuff like "am i worried about something thats a big deal?" or "im ok right now, aren't i? im not in harms way, im cool".
Go to a bathroom qubical or just somewhere quiet to do this if you need to. This helped quite a bit back in the day and now i dont even have to do it anymore.
Just take a minute or something, it'll pass and you can carry on about your day.

Good luck with uni anon.

Nice list, thank you. I will add these to my Anki deck. I only knew about half of these beforehand from reading and watching anime. Also I'd like to mention one of my favorites I recently learned from anime: 自由奔放 (じゆうほんぽう)。But I don't think this is very commonly used.

>>214409397
Just got the confirmation email. Yay.

I was thinking about what the equivalent of "better late than never" would be in Japanese. Before looking it up, I tried to figure out a similar sentence myself and came up with 遅くてもずっとないよりまし。Does this make sense? I think I would use this if something independent of me happens later than expected. And if it's instead something I did late, I'd replace the ない with しない。Does this make sense?
Jisho.org suggests 遅くともしないよりまし。

>>214446362
>Before looking it up, I tried to figure out a similar sentence myself and came up with 遅くてもずっとないよりまし。Does this make sense?

Something feels off with the phrase.
If I'm not mistaken, ないより(は)マシ is used in the sense of "better than nothing"

>I have 3 bucks buck but better than nothing.
>3ドルしか持ってないけど、ないより(は)マシだ


When it comes to "better late than never," it depends on the context and case how to say the phrase in Japanese.

If someone did their homework at the last minute and you'd like to tell them "better late than never" in Japanese, you could say:
>遅くてもしないより(は)マシだ
or
>遅くてもやらないより(は)マシだ

On the other hand, if someone arrived at school later than the scheduled/ time and you'd like to tell them "better than never," you could say:
>遅れても来ないより(は)マシだ

By the way, 遅くともしないよりマシ suggested by jisho.org sounds kind of stiff to me.
In my opinion, 遅くても is widely used over 遅くとも in everyday conversation.

>>214448837
Thank you for the explanation! I see I was thinking about ない the wrong way.

In the homework and coming to school examples, someone is actively doing something (doing their homework, or coming to school). If instead some desired event is happening late, would you just use the relevant verb for that event? For example, if it finally rains after a long dry season:
>遅くても降らないより(は)マシだ

>By the way, 遅くともしないよりマシ suggested by jisho.org sounds kind of stiff to me.
I also think it feels stiff, but not sure if I can explain why. It sounds old fashioned or how a character with 中二病 might speak.

Question
In the title of this song
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0Y_SURPJ9Rk
The translation for 其ノ弐 seems to be Part 2.
From what I gathered, 弐 is 2 and is used in documents and 其ノ(その) can mean part. According to BCCWJ the latter is rarely used.
Anyways, my question is: do you prefer tea or coffe?

>>214455682
Cure Dolly (RIP) was a japanese teacher vtuber that made great grammar introductory videos and also some rants on how japanese is taught on schools and by Tae Kim specifically. I personally can vouch for her content, it's great and way better than whatever fanfiction of grammar Tae Kim came up. Her videos are arguably more accurate to how Japanese is taught in actual japanese schools, and the carriage train model works wonders.

もうお手上げ

I'll try to explain why 申し訳ございません is more polite and formal than ごめんなさい.

ごめんなさい consists of 御免(ごめん) + 為さい(なさい).
御免 is a the act of forgiving someone for their sin or mistake.

The 為さい here is the shortened form of 為さいませ, which is combination of 為さる (the honorific form of 為る[する] / 為す[なす]) and ませ (the imperative form of ます).

I mean, ごめんなさい ends up giving the impression that you politely order someone to forgive you for your sin or mistake.

On the other hand, 申し訳ございません consists of 申し訳(もうしわけ) + ございません.
申し訳 is the act of excusing yourself for something.
ございません is the most polite way of saying ない.
In a word, 申し訳ございません means you have no excuse for your sin or mistake.
This gives the impression that you admit your sin or mistake with sincerity.

As a result, ごめんなさい is used in casual settings whereas 申し訳ございません is used in formal settings.

>Degree of politeness and formality.
[most polite and formal] 大変申し訳ございません > 申し訳ございません > 申し訳ありません > すみません > ごめんなさい > ごめん > わるい [most impolite and informal]

Interesting how 免 is the 漢語 word for forgiveness. Usually, words from the courtly Literary Chinese language are more formal than words from Old Japanese.

In English we have the words "forgive me" and "pardon me". "forgive me" being from the medieval vulgar language Anglo-Saxon, while "pardon" is from the medieval courtly language, Anglo-Norman.

The Norman "pardon me" sounds more formal, but also more stilted and legal. While the Saxon "forgive me" and "sorry" sounds more vulgar, but also more sincere because of that.
So even in a formal setting "Please forgive me" sounds more grave than "Please pardon me". I wonder if its the same.
