well, add two syllables to hiragana and katakana gets almost to 100% redundant, and my brain really doesn't like taking the scenic route for processing
also katakana contains the whole top 10 of linguistic abominations i've seen

ok weeb

you say weeb like it was a bad thing

it's annoying how interest in a language gets conflated with a lot of cultural things, like e.g. my buddy went on a japanese course and it was all anime watching girls, one liked to tear faces off of dolls

i went to study spanish and again, it was all spanish soap opera watching girls

talked about wanting to study korean a bit and got swarmed with kpop

it's exhausting

these sound like really shit studies tbh

i love me my anime but i know even if you watching anime for the language, you gonna get a VERY limited sample, even with anime being a medium (not a genre) with lotsa variety

i think you misunderstood

all the other attendants were either there because of anime in case of japanese or soap operas in case of spanish

oh that

yeah these people generally don't last long at studying a language

why are more memes posted in <#633966934622208031> then here

because i, a cunning linguist, derailed you

goddamnit

tbh I wanna learn new languages

I tried to learn dutch and swedish but I never fully comitted to it mostly cause it takes more time than I have

because clearly this channel is meant for debating

i only decided to study japanese after i visited japan. i've also been in at least 4 different states in the US, and having seen japan firsthand i garuntee "1st world of the 1st world" is no exaggeration

i had never seen SO much space so clean and orderly

they are actually robots

weeb

why do you all have the same damn christmas anime girl profile pic

it's padoru season

padoru

dis is the music of the kings and queens, tunes for ya weddings and ya sweet sixteens, baby christening and even anniversaries, prisoners are listening in penitentiaries, you want see the rastaman smoke them trees, light up the chalice and drink the herbal teas, beg the selector say pull it up please, let him know the tune it sting like bees

Too much order = too high expectations = not wanting to be like 'exhausted dad' = not starting a family

smells of weebish degeneracy

frankly whenever i hear anything about japanese society, i hear this

it's actually more on the "ah shit we can't afford education for a son. guess we ain't having one" side

still bad ofc

at least they are not importing migrants like the west to compensate the low birth rates
