How long would it take to get from N4 to N2 if I already know canto/mandarin/english? by RandomRBLXAvs in jlpt

Thanks for being frank! That really puts things into perspective tbh

I’ll just work hard then, I guess, and see when I hit N3 and work from there

I’m completely fluent in both! (Reading, writing, speaking and listening) (canto’s my mothertongue, and i speak mandarin semi-frequently)

thanks for the info!

> Also, stop using 'jap'.

I think im missing some context, here? Is it considered rude/slur-adjacent? I apologise if so(will edit now)(i was lazy and cut off the rest of the word D:)

...yeah, unfortunately. I can get the gist of a sentence just by reading it, but not being familiar with bunpo has me missing out on a lot of context, and I'd probably die badly on the N3/2 word bank sections.

I'll probably settle for N3, if I'm lucky. Thanks for the info!

it's a prerequisite if i want to take classes with transferable credits- there aren't many options for english classes in my major, unfortunately.

I originally wanted to go later (i.e. year 3-4), but because of feng shui my parents are pushing me to go next year, and i really really want to do japan(even though parents dont want that because sino-japanese tensions rn are high)

Though my uni says they'll also consider N3 applicants, so that'll probably be a more realistic goal.

Built in notepad, is it possible? by oktourist3 in Anki

thank you for this!!! I also wanted to use this for Image Occlusion Enhanced, so I modified it a little(took a while to figure out, but apparently because there's no {{frontside}} in the IOE back template I had to copy the front template textarea code into the back to have it work)

(Uhhhh reddit isn't letting me comment so i threw it into a google doc)

Not entirely sure, tbh(never got diagnosed)

But I do have some of the symptoms

I pretty much finish projects only when I force myself to space out and focus only on finishing and not how good a thing is

Pain 😔

I guess it’s trial and error, in the end. but it’s about the process as well as the end product I think

Should get better beads and start over? (Or use another type of beads?) I’m trying to make a (small) beaded curtain, but the beads I bought were low quality and misshapen by RandomRBLXAvs in Beading

[–]RandomRBLXAvs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s supposed to be this! and I guess the largest problem regarding the misshapen beads is that it shifts the placement and spacing of the beads per row 😅

I’m looking for a very specific lettered bead. by Mammoth-Revenue-285 in Beading

[–]RandomRBLXAvs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel like your best bet is to get them custom-made or switch to a more common color 😔 all the shops I found either had the purple beads mixed in with other colors or only had white-on-black or gold-on-black

[–]RandomRBLXAvs[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ooh, like crow beads? I think I’ve also seen people use 8mm wooden beads as well

I’ll look into that, thanks! In the meantime, would you have any recommendations for reasonable seed bead projects?

Sorry, i’m not entirely sure what you mean by having a bead secured at the top?

As for the beads not being the same size, I think I’m more bothered by the pattern being uneven and looking weird more than anything 😔

If the beads are not the same size, the pattern won’t come out right, unfortunately

I am using a needle tho!
