Why Bother Learning a Language?

So, with all of the new artificial intelligence, language learning apps, and of course the automatic translations and the automatic closed captions now, it would seem like learning a language has both become easier than ever, and more useless than ever, with many interpreters being laid off, from what I seem to call reading, and favor of automatic AI based translation. So why bother learning a…

くま クマ 熊 ベアー vol. 2

I just finished volume 2! Some chapters were a little bit more difficult because of trading and finance related vocabulary, but overall it was very easy to understand.

As the series continues, I learned more and more about different side characters, which was really nice. At the beginning, I expected Yuna to travel from one place to another, with side characters only being temporarily relevant. Instead, she revisits these characters and either helps them solve new problems or improves their lives in some way.

Occasionally, Yuna reflects on her previous life. This is something I wish she would do more often or in greater depth. I’d like to see how her experiences in this world have changed the way she views her old life. But so far, it seems like it doesn’t really matter to her. To her, she’s just doing whatever she wants (like before), even though her life now is completely different. 

She isn’t just sitting alone in her room enjoying games and manga all day anymore, she’s constantly out in the world interacting with people, caring about them and helping anyone in need. Somehow, she doesn’t seem to realize how big that difference is. (which is probably the intention of the author?) I’m very curious to see whether the series will explore Yuna’s development and feelings in more detail later.

Reis capítulo 327: O Shlomo e O Dumbledore

Parece que O rei Salomão , como Dumbledore , protegeu o seu herdeiro demais.  Mesmo se isso foi por amor,  mas, o herdeiro dum rei, ou de uma pessoa que tem que guerrear, vai ter que conhecer a guerra também, e precisa ser treinado para a guerra.

Dumbledore treinou o Harry Potter mas parece que o rei Shlomo não preparou o seu filho reoboam para enfrentar o faraó shishak.

Reis capítulo 326: o problema dos amigos/the problem with invisible friends invisíveis

… só tem o poder que a pessoa tem. Não poderem sanar feridas, nem curar doenças, mas a crença sim pode ajudar com a confiança, a solidão, mesmo a sabedoria que cada um de nós tivemos ouvido e esquecido. / invisible friends only have as much power as the person. They cannot heal illnesses, although believe does help with confidence, even wisdom, what we have heard but have (consciously)…

About Experience Posts

Whenever I see a post where someone passed N2 or N1 and shared their experiences, it’s very interesting to me how they reached their level. Of course, not every experience post is equally useful. Some are quite vague, but others describe pretty clearly what the learner did, what worked well and what didn’t. Detailed experience posts can provide valuable insights. That’s why I like reading them. Maybe I can learn something from them?

Unfortunately, I often see lots of skepticism, accusations or defensiveness under such posts. Don’t get me wrong, healthy skepticism is important. But instantly dismissing someone who shares detailed data and answers questions in a friendly tone is counterproductive in my opinion. It shifts the focus from learning to doubting and discrediting others.

When someone reaches a goal faster or more efficiently than we have, it can make us feel uncomfortable and inferior. I understand that, that’s human. But does attacking the OP helps anyone? Try to put these emotions aside and calmly ask yourself: “Is there something I can learn from this person?”

While some people have advantages that may influence the speed of learning (like a Chinese background, a high tolerance for ambiguity or lots of free time), they don’t negate the effort. Some learners simply compress their hours into a shorter timeframe. 

If you have less free time you’ll probably make slower progress, but this doesn’t mean there’s nothing to learn from someone who learned faster. I think it’s the opposite: Especially people with less free time can benefit from more efficient learning activities the most. The question is not if you can pass the N1 in the same time as the OP (you probably won’t if you don’t have the same advantages) but maybe you can reach your goal a bit faster than with your current approach. Posts from more experienced people can help to find out how.

That’s why I would like to encourage every learner to ask themselves questions like:

  • How much time did I actually spend reading and listening this month?
  • Could I use my time more efficiently?
  • Are there low-value activities I could reduce to focus more on Japanese? (like reducing time on social media, etc.)
  • How can I make my study routine more consistent?

There’s no “one right way“ to learn Japanese. However, after reading many experience posts I’ve noticed that high-level learners often share certain habits. Like, regularly engaging with native content.

The specific material (novels, anime, visual novels, YouTube videos, etc.) seems less important. If the OP read lots of isekai light novels but isekai is not your cup of tea, feel free to pick a genre you like. If the OP watched mainly anime but you don’t like anime, try watching series on Netflix in Japanese or YouTube videos.

The essential point I’ve noticed is consistent exposure to native speakers (be it in person or from content made for natives). But the details are up to you. Do whatever aligns with your goals and preferences.

For me, these posts aren’t strict recipes but inspiration. I don’t need to copy everything, I just extract what fits my lifestyle and goals (which for me means reaching a high level of comprehension).

I think by approaching such posts with an open mind and curiosity, we can benefit much more from such experience posts.

Reis capítulo 303: o dor de ver/the pain of seeing

É certo que é doloroso, ver o que os demais pessoas não podem ver. É frustrante, cansativo, e doloroso. / True, it hurts, seeing what others cannot see. It is frustrating, tiring, and painful.

アクセル・ワールド vol. 2 finished

I just finished the second volume of アクセル・ワールド !

This volume was tough. I had a lot of trouble understanding all these explanations. I think I got the most important parts, but I probably still missed some details.

Because of the complexity of this series, I decided to take notes about characters and important information. Sometimes I don’t clearly understand who did what and why, so I write down what I do understand and move on. If I later come across additional information that brings more clarity, I go back and correct my earlier notes.

At times I felt a bit down because some scenes were hard to follow, but my notes showed me that I actually understood a good part of it.

This volume was challenging but I’m so glad that I kept reading! Chapter 7 and the following chapters felt especially rewarding. The final action scenes were really cool and the foreshadowing made me very curious about the next volume. I also loved the emotional scenes.
