  1. おめでとう,  あなたは 私のより 手書き が  上手いです 

    Im not going to translate this for you this is your exercise for today 😛

    Currently i am learning japanese at a very slow pace because lack of motivation but i want to pick it up rather soon again.

    Looking forward to how you will be progressing

    Edit: shouldnt aragaki be

    あらがき instead of あわがい 

    Edit 2: yes you will get faster the more you use it. I can read hiragana instanrly but it took me 3 minutes to write the sentence at the top because i havent had enough exercises yet to apply the grammar to do it quickly so it takes some time

  2. When I was 7 I Got locked in an elevator Since it stoppen moving.

    When I was 6 I wanted to run to my dad and yelled dad and hugged his legs but it turned out to be my friends dad so I ran towards my dad afterwards only to find out that was a dad of my friend from germany after that I was able to find my dad.

    I once cut my thumb with my keyboard

    Half a year ago I cut my finger with a shoelace Don't ask me how I Don't know either.

     

    I know that 3 of these things were my doing but I wanted to share these stories so that people could laugh at how clumsy I am.

    Wasn't a former employee. I'm thinking it was the former-- very disgruntled fan who was clearly unhinged. No matter the case, very sad people had to lose their lives because of this lunatic. They were just trying to do some honest work and to be frank it's already a gruesomely underpaid and overworked field. 

    Kyoto Animation Is different from other Studios (From What I've heard and read)
    Kyoto Actually gives them normal contracts, no Unrealistic Deadlines and enough money for a living.

  5. Soooo, I didnt see this Topic Yet So I made 1.

    You might have heard or seen It already but Kyoto Animation has been set on fire.
    Currently 13 dead and 38 Injured, Arson even threw liquid On people, not just the building.
    I saw this when I just woke up and I couldn't believe It :( It's an amazing anime studio (Also my favorite)
    There were 70 people In the building and death count Is steadily rising.
    Possible Arson has been found.

    Edit: 33 Confirmed Dead, Arson said Kyoto Ripped him off, Currently 819k $ have been donated

  6. So since you want to learn Hiragana I assume you are completely new to the language.

    I Have Genki and you don't have to buy 1 to learn Japanese. Genki Is just a start and won't even make you an Intermediate at It.
    What I do to learn languages, this goes for any language, Is to just use It even tho you don' t know any vocab or grammar.

    I never learned English, I just lived In an English world (PC). People that learn fast usually live In the country that uses that certain language but not everyone can just fly over just to learn a language.
    so Instead of going to Japan you could use a Japanese keyboard and do the same from the Internet.


    I'm not good at Japanese myself and I'm still learning but I can give you some tips I guess.

    This Is how I learned so far.
    1. Start learning Hiragana and Katakana, you can learn both of them over the weekend.
    2. Start Learning some Kanji I'd recommend this: https://decks.memrise.com/course/141583/2136-joyo-kanji-by-grade/

    You don't have to now the Pronunciations yet, that will come with time.
    Just a small explanation.
    There are 2 types of Reading, Kunyomi and Onyomi
    Kunyomi Is the Japanese way of reading Kanji, Example: 山(Mountain) Kunyomi Is "Yama", If I say that everyone will know Its a mountain.

    Onyomi Is the Chinese way of reading, So In that case 山 would be read as "San", But this Isn't as clear as the Kunyomi reading since San can also mean: Three etc. This Is to make It flow better.
    There are just to many readings to just remember so thats why I would recommend NOT to learn the readings immediately

    3. You can make your own course or just a list for Vocab you want to learn. This way you will also get familiar with pronunciations of Kanji
    4. Learning grammar Is up to you, Genki does a good job at teaching basic grammar but apart form that you can learn much more In less time If you were using other methods.
    I Personally learn grammar by reading and then making the correct version of the sentence In my own language until I don't have to think about It anymore (Like What I did with English) 

    I feel like I talked like I am a Japanese expert even tho I am just a beginner aswell, Most of these Tips are from how I've learned other languages and a the little Japanese knowledge I have myself.

    EDIT: (IMPORTANT)

    I recommend this Site, https://ichi.moe/cl/qr/?q=山本&r=htr
    You can paste any sentences In there and it will show you every single word. Much more convenient then Google Translate.

  7. You Got me there Since I have a fear of flying. 

    But most and biggest accidents happen because of people breaking rules. You will still be able to control the self driving car because otherwise it would be illegal (Atleast from what Ive heard). So even though you will prevent accidents most of them are small.
