  • I recently got back into learning using Japanese immersion with refold, MIA, TheMoeWay, AJATT methods and thought I'd post an update video for how I got started again and what I've been doing for the past 2 months.
    Sorry for rambling a lot, I recorded this after being awake for 30 hours.

    I think Detective Conan is the best cartoon for japanese immersion. Over 1100 episodes, such a wide range of topics covered, contemporary real world environment, Conan is very smart talking to professionals, but also talks to children making his vocabulary probably varied. Stories include lots of mystery and thriller elements making it relatively easy to stick with it.

      @@Hoppitot i deleted a lot of decks because my anki ended up taking 6gb of space but if i were to guess how many cards i would have with every deck i used it would be ~26k, most being mature. I have 17780 cards right now with 16529 of them mature (750 suspended). I kept up the 200 cards/day grind for about 2.5 months before i began running out of cards. nowadays i only do about 10 cards a day with around 300 reviews/day as i'm running out of words to mine in the book i'm reading. i have 370k reviews in total

    I'm at 8 months mark, but I'm a heavy listener: about 900 hours of listening and less than 100 hours of reading. Hmm, maybe less than 50 hours of reading. I am trying to get more reading, but it really feels harder than listening. Your vocab increases so quickly and your anki time is so low, it's amazing! I guess it's all because of reading. Best of luck!

      I still have to look up words a lot while reading but thanks to Mokuro + Yomitan it's not too bad compared to using Jisho or another dictionary.
      Some easier manga are からかい上手の高木さん, レンタルおにいちゃん, ルリドラゴン and of course よつばと!

      I'd already "learnt" this deck a year ago which is why it didn't take long long to finish daily, I only did 100 cards a day until I started to not recognize the majority of words (after a week or so) and then eventually settled on 20 daily until I finished the deck.
      Of course, if I was doing 100 new cards a day I'd never seen before, on top of reviews, it would take me hours. I've kept track of all my times so far and the highest it's been was 35 minutes (first day of starting again).

      Just start with like 4-5 new cards a day and just do it. It sounds daunting but once you get the hang of it it's fun. I'm upto 8 new cards per day which puts me about 3000 words per year. I also do a few sentences for reviews it takes me about an hr every day

      It's not brute force it's doing something you want to learn and immersing in it. We learn by doing, if we don't do we can't learn. I don't remember every single kanji every day but over time they add up

      @Hoppitot 21 день назад

      Illegal recommendation: Just full send hiragana only untill you get 2k or so vocab then start whatever kanji method you want. Japanese has so much front loaded difficulty so removing kanji helps a bit.

      Hard disagree, unless you pick a learners podcast (which is usually boring af) it's gonna be too difficult. I'd recommend listening to a cut audio only version of an anime you've previously mined.

    to state the obvious: your listening hours are very low.
    what are your thoughts on passive listening in the background? Khatzumoto says every moment you should be listening to Japanese

    • @hulloh
      @hulloh  2 месяца назад

      I have done a lot of passive listening (for most of the 200 hours of reading manga I had a stream playing in the background) but now that I'm reading novels I can't really focus with any talking or songs with lyrics in the background.
      I'm already spending almost all of my free time actively immersing so there's not much room left to add passive in.
      I also feel like I saw more improvement from 10-15 hours of active listening compared to 100+ hours of passive so it's not really a priority for me at the moment.
