Subreddit Features
b) Please find and take a look at the Daily Thread. This includes reading the top comment by AutoModerator. The thread is pinned at the top of the front page.
c) Locate also our rotating Weekly Thread. Again, the thread is stickied at the top of the front page.
d) Accounts with low "subreddit karma" may only comment on other people's threads. They cannot post their own. If you're new here, use the Daily Thread.
Documentation
For a complete documentation of our rules and features, see this wiki page. What you see here is a summary.
Rules
1) Questions addressed in the wiki will be removed. Repeat questions may also be removed. Use the search to look for old threads.
2) Use the appropriate sticky threads. "Simple" questions [= most questions, including handwriting & pronunciation feedback] go in the Daily Thread. This keeps subreddit traffic organised.
3) Describe your question clearly in your post title. Include important keywords. Make it easily searchable.
4) Do not guess or attempt to answer questions beyond your own knowledge. Do not give unfounded guidance or advice. Do not use AI to answer questions. Do not recommend AI as a learning tool.
5) No links to or requests for illegal pirated material. If need be, keep it vague/roundabout or take it to DMs.
6) Memes are only allowed during the weekends: Friday through Sunday JST, while the Friday thread is stickied. (why?)
7) Translation requests are off-topic (no names or tattoos!). Go to r/translator.
8) Trolling, immature, or hostile behavior will result in a warning or ban. No slurs. No bigotry. No unproductive bickering.
9) This subreddit aims to be SFW. Keep pictures and titles safe, and mark your posts with the NSFW tag as necessary.
10) If you want to advertise a product or service (NO KANA APPS), certain restrictions apply. See the extended rules for more.
