SPEEDRUN Japanese Duolingo so I can go to Japan

"I studied Japanese in university" It was at this moment that I knew 1010 was gonna have a massive skill issue. Not even 10 seconds later he mistakes 着る for 好き Sadge

Is no one else gonna mention how he kept calling the duolingo mascot a frog and not an owl?

Japanese is kinda hard, and these apps are good at entrapping people. If anyone seriously wants to learn, there are a number of things I recommend. 1. Any kana resource, expect this to be the easiest part. 2. Some sort of kanji resource. Kanji is the biggest gateway for beginners, so something like Wanikani, KKLC, or a shortened Recognition RTK are good. If you can learn to recognize the most common 1000 kanji and apply a meaning to them, that's plenty and you can get the rest from immersion. Get Anki and do flashcards for these daily. 2. Some kind of grammar resource. I've only used Cure Dolly (bless her soul) and nihongokyoshi (advanced but look for 文法) and highly recommend them. No need for active study, just watch/read grammar rules and come back occasionally to refresh or look up specific grammar. 3. Some kind of Anki sentence deck for vocabulary, preferably with audio. If you consume Japanese content, you passively have some common Japanese vocab and can quickly recognize and apply it. The audio will help contextualize it and get your foot in the door. 4. Some kind of immersion tool. Preferably several. Watch Japanese content on youtube and use Language Reactor and Yomichan, insert Kitsunekko subtitles into streaming anime using Substital and parse them with Yomichan, read a Visual Novel connected to Textractor connected to Clipboard Inserter connected to an empty site connected to Yomichan, read simple articles using Yomichan, join a JP server in browser Discord with Yomichan. Use AnkiConnect and Yomichan can now import vocabulary sentences to Anki with audio. 5. Some very concrete goal. Japanese is hard. It's not for everyone but if you find a reason to want it enough you can push through. Listen to music, watch shows, read folklore, follow creators, make a travel plan, etc. Take things one day at a time and remember everything is part of the process. You just gotta keep running. Good luck.

Totally called the Chinese kanji bit lol

I watch the occasional anime, so you could consider me something of an expert. Nani subarashii chotto matte yare yare That means "You should build your Xiangling" in Japanese.

This was actually more fun to watch then I expecting going into it

1010 can you please make a video on Staff of Scarlet Sands?

Perfection

This was definitely interesting. I hope you will make another video about duolingo haha. Unless you genuinely dont like it of course!

lmao duolingo love to see it 32 day streak rn on german, using it along w/ german classes @ school n just personal studying/immersion of the language too. Actually i quite like duolingo, great for keeping you going + keeping track of things. gets too much flack from experienced language-leaners imo. ich bin lernen deutsch für meine beste mädchen und frau venti, er ist sehr lieb, schlank, elegant und schön~ ich liebe venti, ich will ihn essen. <3333 er ist eine lecker frau. edit: auch, ahem ahem tenten hat geschicklichkeitsproblem.

Not using Duolingo for language, might try out their upcoming math app and speedrun it.
