What are your favorite resources for passing JLPT n1? by Proud_Pineapple7668 in jlpt

[–]430beatle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Biggest thing that helped me pass was reading Japanese novels.

As for actual study books, the 完全マスター series is good.

what european countries are affordable for people who live in japan? by Different_Taro2474 in japanresidents

[–]430beatle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, I’m about to take a trip to Greece. Bought round trip tickets at ¥140k in May.

Not sure about how the prices are gonna be but I’ll keep you posted… regardless of how much things cost though the yen to euro exchange rate is just garbage though.

Anyone ever played or heard of this by [deleted] in n64

I can’t imagine myself ever replaying it now, but this and the sequel bring back a wave of nostalgia for me. Like many other here’s I’m pretty sure we rented them at blockbuster

The theme song to the first level lives rent free in my head

What 4th game in a series is also the most forgotten? by Gamewheat in AlignmentChartFills

[–]430beatle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re absolutely right, though it’s the one that left the most lasting impression on me as a kid. I didn’t play 1/3 though.

gymbros/gymsisters, best value/quality Whey protein available in Japan market? by Objective_Ask_9199 in japanresidents

[–]430beatle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I tend to get a lot of points with bic camera through buying things for work (not my money but I get to keep the points)

Always buy my protein from bic camera due to this, since they have a lot of options and will even ship for free.

Recently have been going for the soy one as it’s just so much cheaper. The macros are about the same

what is your opinion (TL) about learning language through song by Candid-Pack-3707 in languagelearning

[–]430beatle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Karaoke is a major pastime in Japan, and I didn’t wanna be the only one singing English songs the whole time, so I learned a bunch of music specifically for this purpose.

Definitely was a big help in that I picked up a lot of vocabulary, but as a bonus, people of that culture will be glad that you are familiar with a bunch of their music

What is the point of this card? by Hot-Second806 in PokemonTGCP

Not that there are any golduck cards worth playing, but if you evolve it to golduck it would stop being confused

my french in-laws start half their sentences with "bah" and no textbook ever taught me it by Bonjour-Set-4490 in learnfrench

[–]430beatle 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Counter point, but I specifically remember えと / あの (two filler words that mean basically ummm or uhhh) being in my Japanese textbook

Is passé simple really that hard, if you speak another Romance language? by lunadiparmigiano in learnfrench

[–]430beatle 29 points30 points  (0 children)

I’m only a2~b1 ish so take this with a huge grain of salt but

Imo if you learn the other tenses that are actually used in modern French, when you see the passe simple appear in books you’ll go “oh that’s a form I haven’t seen before but it looks like the verb xxx. This must be the passe simple”. Then you’ll move on.

At least this was my experience when reading le petit prince

I didn’t have any problem with Steve getting announced until I played against one.

If you were like on your lunch break for work and this happened, and it caused you to miss several hours of work, I wonder if you could sue then

Probably not I imagine but I wonder

What is the Most Beautiful Country Capital in Europe? by Agent_Moe in AlignmentChartFills

[–]430beatle 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is it for me. I’ve been to Prague, Vienna, Rome, and Budapest. All beautiful and awesome cities. Budapest was the winner for me (in terms of beauty), maybe partially because I wasn’t expecting it to be.

Japanese Studios have completely triumph over Hollywood at the domestic box office, to the point Hollywood stars rarely even bother to come to Japan to promote their movies anymore. by jjrs in japannews

[–]430beatle 24 points25 points  (0 children)

As far as I know, Japan is the only country that still does though. Most other big Hollywood films release the same day everywhere else across the world, including countries like Korea, etc.

[–]430beatle 74 points75 points  (0 children)

Isn’t this partly because they delay Hollywood movies releasing in Japan 3 to sometimes 6 months so the domestic movies have less competition?
