  2. Slow progress on #wanikani

    Burn rate: 1.93 items/day 📉

    I'm beginning to wonder if I should just stop at this point, haha. I'll let it run until the end of the year, and hopefully the number of remaining items would be < 100 by then.

    Lately I've been using bunpro for vocabulary more heavily, and this seems quite productive since I only add words that I encounter in the books I currently read.

  3. しか~ない (shika-nai) = only / nothing but — always with a negative verb.

    水しか飲みません. 1000円しかない. Not the same as だけ.

  6. Finally signed up for the JLPT (Japanese Language Proficiency Test) for this December!

    Fun note: Only took me about 40 minutes to complete the registration as the site kept crashing from too much traffic.

    If you have any tips, tricks, or study suggestions - I'm all ears!

  7. I'm at a point where I am trying to input as much Japanese as possible - including gaming.

    What are some suggestions for games in Japanese and/or Japanese titles I should check out? In terms of systems, I currently have an Ayn Odin w/ emulation, a Switch 2 and Steam on my Fedora machine. I might pick up a used gaming system at BookOff (Japanese 3DS, etc...)
