I have a 388 days streak on Duolingo learning Japanese. I could say it helps you build a daily habits of learning. And it's good for a beginner even though it not going to teach you everything, but i assure you it help to keep you going everyday.
Get rid of Duolingo and get a core 6000 Anki deck, go to options and new cards per day then increase it until you start encountering words you don't know then reset it back to a normal amount before it's the next day. Once you finish that deck just do immersion learning.
@@AtomiccKaijudon't wait 6000 words to start immersion. You can start way before with simple videos like the nihongo con teppei podcast. I've heard others say that you should really start at 1500~. For myself, i'm only at 350 words, doing 20 new a day and I still think listening to some Japanese is useful.
@@charlesdewez423 When I was at 350 words I was still trying to remember the days of the week! But for me 6000 was like 60 days becuase I was doing Anki for many hours with grouped Kanji studies.
heyy!! thats so impressive, you should be so proud of yourself! its such a challenge to speak a new lanuguage with such little time, and even though your speech wasn't perfect, i could still understand what you were trying to get across in your speech. Even Esther understood what you meant too! congrats, take care
10% after 30 days? Holy guacamole. I've been studying over a year, and I can only understand like 20-30% of fluid conversation. Edit: Though, to be honest, I did not put enough emphasis on vocabulary for quite a while.
おはようSangkaiくん。I started learning Japanese since last summer, and I started with Duolingo, but after a couple of months I moved to Busuu, I feel like is a better app to learn, (I wouldn't recommend doing an hour a day, I feel like 30 minutes a day is a good pace, that way you don't over do it)It would be cool if you made a video about the Busuu app. New subscriber here.
Duolingo doesn't have enough content. It repeats and repeats the same logic with different words that you'll never see again with weird sentences. You'll feel like no progress is being done the more you use it (I finished the entire Japanese Duolingo course, every time with each expansion and have a 1300 days streak).
Yes, very good point of view. I'm mid section 3 (unit 50, 51) and I decided to use less duolingo because I was feeling that it was not so effective for learning just vocabulary. I chose migaku to continue since you can watch video and collect word with the subtitle to study after with flashcards, but I keep duolingo to learn kanji because for me it's one of the best tool to keep my motivation to learn them until I start writing them on paper.
I don't know where your at, but if you are at the end of learning new grammar concept. I recommend using apps like anki or migaku too to learn more vocalary and start immersion. But, yes at that point you need a lot of vocabulary, so the progress is slower.
I've been learning Japanese on Duolingo for 95 days and i'm still in section one 😭. It started off as a hobby but now i really do want to learn Japanese and be fluent in it. Hope for the best , and i'd appreciate some advice 🤞🤞.
As an English speaker learning Japanese, I'm really enjoying the Japanese Duolingo course, there are some errors (for some reason it says ni (2), when it's meant to be san (3) audio errors), so it's not perfect, but I can look over this. I agree with you when you moved on to section 2, the jump from section 1 and 2 was massive, it got a lot more difficult. I've only been doing this for just under two months and I can recognise almost all hiragana and katakana without their English translation and I know a good amount of words. When I did my first video call with Lily (on the Duolingo track, you get 1 for free, but since I don't have the max subscription I couldn't do more), I froze and didn't know what to say, I knew a lot of words, it's just hard to formulate them from complete memory, I wish I have more practice speaking with "real" people as this is what makes you better. I also really like how much you could speak in Japanese at the end, so well done for that!
Nice editing, especially for 138 subs. Also I'm surprised you picked up that much grammar, given duolingo doesn't teach it so much. As for counting, if it's just the numbers, that's one thing, but after working on the language for years, I've decided I'm just going to save counters for later and focus on things more useful for actually communicating. They can get insane. (Although a couple that can be used for lots of things would be good to learn. I just have trouble focusing on them.) I suppose the Korean would help with the grammar a lot though, I hear that's where a lot of the similarity is. And knowing English, you have a bonus from both Korean similar vocabulary, and English loanwords (which a lot of katakana words are). Good luck~
Duolingo is extremely slow, but if you stick with it, you can make progress. I haven't used it for Japanese much, but I started learning Norwegian around the middle of last year on Duolingo and now I can understand a good deal of spoken Norwegian, especially if it's slow and clear and close to Bokmål. But that's over maybe nine months on Duolingo. Now I've reached a point where I just get frustrated with Duolingo, because each unit will only teach maybe five or ten words, whereas I can listen to a podcast for Norwegian learners and learn the same number of words and get more listening practice in too. So if you want to learn a language in 30 days, Duolingo isn't going to do that for you, but if you are willing to commit to using it every day (or most days) over a long period of time, you can make some significant progress.
why Do have less Sub Your Quality is impressive (try to fill the Background so it will not fill empty and Wear a colour Contracting with wall which will Keep you in Focus )
111 day streak on duo learning japanese as a spanish native speaker, tho i might need to change methods cause the only thing i can say is "those are my red jackets" 😭
Hahaha I feel you..! If you haven't, I highly recomment rapid review in each unit, it forces you to memorize words and expressions under time pressure. But good luck!!
Hmm it's hard to articulate but many sentence structures (or grammar) are very similar and a lot of words do pronounce similar, so when I try to come up with some words I learn, I think of Korean first then it leads me to recall the words!
The video quality for a less than 100 subscriber channel is insane love it man

This is probably the best video I have seen this week
Bro, your video so professional, keep going
was incredibly impressed by how much you learned after so little time, massive kudos

Duolingo is just a kickstart to my journey, and I think its the same for everyone. Also the vid quality is insane.
Damn bro that was really good man. Ngl enjoyed ur video. But thats really good after 30 days .
You did pretty good
Thumbnail was perfect, pacing was perfect until the 7-9 minute mark. Absolutely loved this video.
This was a great video! Now I'm really motivated to get to that conversational stage
I am soooo excited to have full Japanese convo soon😎 nice videoooooooo
12:56 same here. Like why shichi not nana?? Loved your videos!
I've honestly been a bit discouraged using Duolingo and haven't seen much progress but hopefully if I keep on with it, I will make more progress!
Progress is not always linear, you got this!

Ive been looking for someone to do this! your video is so underrated

Definitely smashing that subscribe button!
Great editing you will be big one day💪
I had 1 year streak and i stop it because i think it’s a good base but i need more to be fluent in japanese. If you gor more advice i will take it 😉
Well you certainly have more experience than I do haha But I think persistence would be one way 👍🤞
:O wow I live in Japan and this was really impressive. Please update if you continue using Duolingo :D
Yo wassup my cousin live there bro. I also know 50% of n5
If there is such an opportunity, please do the same for Busuu
You look so freezing on 30th day😂
Duolingo would be SO MUCH better if they incorporated spaced repetition...
"atama ga ii", doesn't that just directly translate to "head is good"? 😭
Loll that's how they taught me 🤣
