r/LearnJapanese: Welcome to r/LearnJapanese, *the* hub on Reddit for learners of the Japanese Language.
Hello everyone, I realised we don’t really have an introductory or meta thread for this community, and I thought it might be wise to create one.
So first of all, you might be wondering what japaneselanguage’s particular scope is and how it might be different from other Japanese communities in other instances.
Generally, I don’t like to think that we will be competing with other instances, but rather that we will be filling a niche for people that might be interested in discussing the language itself rather than it’s study methods. This community isn’t going to be a place to discuss the speedrunning or the efficiency of learning Japanese as there are other communities dedicated to those subjects.
Instead, this will be a place where we can discuss how the Japanese language works, it’s phonetics, it’s writing system, calligraphy and other related topics, our handwriting, as well as all other sorts of topics.
Learning materials, media, and literary discussion are very much welcome and encouraged! The only subject that will be discouraged (though not downright banned) is discussion of study methods exclusively without also including discussion about the language itself. So threads in the style of “how I learned 1,000 Japanese sentences over a three-week period” and similar threads focusing more on the methods than the language will probably belong in more specific communities.
Thank you very much for browsing this community and I hope we will be able to build a fun space for all of us who love Japanese.
So for 2-3 years I have been using flash cards to get to 1000 kanji and then switch for full immersion and extrapolate meaning with some dictionary. I only know around 150 kanji.
This method already worked for english and russian but without flash cards part. I learned first 1000 words + grammar in school by osmosis thorough textbooks.
My routine is 30 min a day for two weeks and then 2 week break due to boredom or some other factor. It makes my backlog huge and discouraging and my retention seems terrible (60-70%)
For the past 6 month I didn't make any new flashcards to remember. only reviews of old ones.
Do y'all have some better method to get to 1000 kanji inefficiently? Because it seems efficient method doesn't work for me.
Like "radio" or "fantasy" or "game..." They're basically the same in Japanese (radjio, fantaji, gaamu) so if I just said them in English pronunciation, would someone with no experience in English still be able to tell what I'm saying?

How to use Free Software to learn Japanese, and more.
Hi, I use Rikaichan/Rikaikun at the moment but I'm not sure how to turn on pitch accent if it has it. Does anyone use a pop-up dictionary that has pitch accent, by any chance?
相席(あいせき,) means "sharing a table with someone you don't know (e.g. at a restaurant)" (Takoboto).
What other fun words have you all encountered that just don't translate well to English or require a short explanation?
I'd like to make a sentence that's very long in translation, and/or read a silly sentence like that.

{Testing, 1 2 3|Look I made a face!}, I just want to try this in a post.
I am designing a tshirt with a friend and we wanted to put some japanese on it. Since my japanese is extremely basic (こんにちは、ミカです) I wanted to ask whether the symbols DeepL gave us mean what we think it means. We want to have a skeleton inside a water bottle and the text should read "stay hydrated" and we got these symbols: 水分補給. Do they work in that context? Or are there any better suggestions we could use? Thanks in advance!
