  3. Ein Tipp für alle, die #Japanisch lernen: "Kanji in Context"
    hadamitzky.de/deutsch/kanji_in
    Die Sammlung von Wolfgang Hadamitzky, die zurzeit im Aufbau ist, dient dazu, die Bedeutung von #Kanji und Kanji-Komposita und ihre praktsiche Anwendung im Kontext ganzer Sätze lernen zu können.
    Übrigens hat Wolfgang Hadamitzky auch Kanji-#Poster entwickelt:

  9. JLPT N1 results have just been published online.
    I did it ! I passed it and I'm now a happy and proud graduate of the highest level of the Japanese Language Proficiency Test !!!! 😆🥳🎊😭
    So much time and effort rewarded. I'm ashame to say it but I cried when I saw the results.
    The score isn't great, but all I wanted is a 合格 and I got it. Results in line with the simulations I did before the tests, just good enough. As predicted too, it's the listening part that saved me, although I've been able to score over 50% on grammar and reading parts as well.
    Enormous fulfillment feeling, but this is not the end for me on that matter. I still want to complete the study of Japanese Kanji. I'm nearing a perfect score on level 9, then there will be a perfect score on all 9 first levels at once, and then the last 10th level. Should take me until the end of next year, may life let me work on this until then.

  10. New milestone in my Japanese Kanji study: I've been able to reach a perfect score on all first eight levels (among ten) at once !!!!! 400 reading/writing quizz from a set of 1608 kanjis.
    Ahead of schedule for #jlpt N1, it gives me nine days to review other sections which I intended to leave out for this session. I still don't hope I can pass it this time but that increases the chance for a lucky miracle, and keep me ahead for the next session in December.
    For now, I probably deserve a lazy and self indulging rest of the day, right ? Too bad the weather is awful but let's try to positive anyway for once !

  12. Otro de los grandes aciertos de esta obra maestra de los #libros de #viaje es incluir los caracteres japoneses #kanji y no explicarte cómo se pronuncian.

    Algo tremendamente útil durante un viaje a Japón: cómo decir "estribo para el pasajero" por si vas en moto :ablobabducted:

  13. 日本語を練習しています。

    I've been learning #Japanese on my own for over twenty years. I can understand lots, speak a fair bit, read some ( #kanji is hard), but write virtually none. Online/digital tools have gotten so much better (ie, #SwiftKey sorted out what I typed phonetically, above), but it's not the same as being able to read and write a #language.

    So, I've added another tool to my arsenal.

    Shout to @coffeentacos for posting about just the thing I was looking for, when I was looking for it.

  14. @TheDigitalGlobalCitizen

    Hello! I was born in the #Philippines and lived here my entire life.

    * My first language is English. Philippine English to be exact.

    * My second language is #Tagalog, our native language.

    * My third language is #Nihongo. I self-studied it when I was 4 or 5 years old. But during my school years, the lack of someone to talk to in #Japanese eventually led to me forgetting most of it. Although in my late teens, I had the change to relearn it because I started watching Japanese dubbed #anime and live-action shows/drama, but I've never gotten to the level I used to have when I first learned the language.

    * My fourth language is #Filipino. While many claim that the Filipino language is simply Tagalog, it isn't true. Yes, Filipinos was primarily based in Tagalog, but there are a lot of differences between the two when it comes to rules, grammar, words. What is valid in Filipino, is not in Tagalog. What is a loan word in Tagalog, is not in Filipino, and others.

    * Fifth, I started studying #Hebrew a few years ago, but recently stopped.

    * Sixth, I am currently learning #한국어 (#Hangugeo; #Korean language).

    When it comes to writing scripts:

    * My first is Latin script

    * Second, #カタカナ (#Katakana) and #ひらがな (#Hiragana). I haven't gotten into learning #Kanji.

    * Third, #Baybayin (incorrectly called as 'Alibata'; also known as #Sulat #Surat and #Suyat). It is the native script in pre-colonial Philippines. The Latin script was only introduced during the colonial era, when #Spain subjugated the archipelago.

    * Fourth, modern and ancient Hebrew

    * Fifth, #한글 (Hangeul; Korean script)

    Of all that, I'm fluent in speaking Philippine English, Filipino, and Tagalog. If I take Japanese again and practice, I probably wouldn't have much problem, but I'm concentrating in Korean language and script currently. I'm also fluent in reading and writing in our native script, Baybayin (which isn't taught formally in schools. you'll have to learn it by yourself).

    I also love inventing my own language and scripts, usually for #worldbuilding purposes. Oh! I almost forgot, I also learned #Runic script because of the game franchise #Ultima. But since I don't know the actual language it was used for, I only used Runic for encoding messages (and for the game) rather than actually using it for what it was for. Speaking of encoded messages, I also developed scripts for that purpose, which I taught my classmates back in Elementary and High School. (Now that I think about it, I wish I still have copies, it would be cool to turn those into fonts.)

    And, I guess that's it for me. ^_^

    My cousins and younger brother are the master linguists in our clan. My lil brother knows English, Filipino, Hebrew, Greek (Koine and modern), Mandarin, Hokkien, Cantonese, Korean, Japanese. The Japanese language self-study book I had when I was a kid, I lent it to him and he mastered speaking and reading Japanese in less than a year, and returned the book to me. LOL.

    I still envy him, in a good way. He had the opportunity to have a lot of foreigner classmates, he had no problem learning and practicing until it became second nature for him.

    They all left me behind in learning languages. ^_^;;
