2017-10-10 15:27:02 UTC

2017-10-10 15:27:19 UTC

2017-10-10 15:27:27 UTC  

my mother's zainichi kankokujin

2017-10-10 15:27:28 UTC  

wtf you call me chinese BITCH

2017-10-10 15:27:31 UTC  

so i know a handful of korean, only speaking. writing and reading is hard

2017-10-10 15:27:32 UTC  

ir uim f

2017-10-10 15:27:46 UTC  

Hoo

2017-10-10 15:28:46 UTC  

but to be honest its easier to learn how to read kanji than it is memorizing how to write it

2017-10-10 15:29:13 UTC  

so, unless youre pursuing japanese as a proffessional sort of thing dont sweat over kanji

2017-10-10 15:29:23 UTC  

Really

2017-10-10 15:29:31 UTC  

I gave up on kanji

2017-10-10 15:29:35 UTC  

yeah

2017-10-10 15:29:39 UTC  

bitch

2017-10-10 15:29:49 UTC  

I learned it for 4 years and never retained any kanji

2017-10-10 15:29:56 UTC  

when i was in elementary manga was what helped me gain a lot of my kanji literacy(only reading)

2017-10-10 15:30:01 UTC  

because of the furigana

2017-10-10 15:30:12 UTC  

and how those words are what people use a lot in everyday speech

2017-10-10 15:30:36 UTC  

just dont rush it

2017-10-10 15:31:54 UTC  

For part of our final last year we had to translate a japnese newspaper which was 70% kanji

2017-10-10 15:32:26 UTC  

there are kanji proficiency tests and even natives struggle to pass the higher level tests.

2017-10-10 15:33:19 UTC  

Unless they have hiragana translations I have no idea how I’m supposed to figure out the meaning

2017-10-10 15:33:47 UTC  

furigana?

2017-10-10 15:34:16 UTC  

Yep

2017-10-10 15:34:25 UTC  

oh

2017-10-10 15:34:27 UTC  

🤔

2017-10-10 15:34:37 UTC  

im not a very bright student with laid out study guides

2017-10-10 15:34:41 UTC  

can't help you that much

2017-10-10 15:35:11 UTC  

Korean looks like fun though

2017-10-10 15:35:41 UTC  

its very similar to japanese

2017-10-10 15:35:53 UTC  

I’m only learning it because most of my friends are Korean and it would be top bants

2017-10-10 15:36:54 UTC  

Also I could just put another language on my resume for the meme

2017-10-10 15:39:50 UTC  

it drives me nuts when someone screams "weeb" at the top of their lungs when they see anyone or anything related to japan

2017-10-10 15:40:03 UTC  

even japanese people watch anime

2017-10-10 15:40:12 UTC  

and sing to japanese songs, they even sing to american songs

2017-10-10 15:40:19 UTC  

whats the big deal? 🤔
