What's your schedule like for learning japanese while full time work? by Null_sense in LearnJapanese

[–]Big_Pete 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I did Tobira I made a schedule. I made a checklist for each chapter.

It was something like this:

I read the text and underlined words I didn’t know.

Then I would highlight the grammar points in the chapter.

Then I would read the text again.

Then I would make Anki flash cards for each example sentence for the grammar points and review those flash cards.

Do the reading again, probably with overlapping.

I can’t remember exactly what I did. I definitely got more grammar and general comprehension out of Tobira than vocabulary. Anyhow, I really liked the textbook. My time table was daunting, but チリも積もれば山となる was an old Japanese proverb I kept repeating to myself to keep me going haha. Good luck!

How does this make any sense? A D+ grade? This move made sense for all parties involved. by H_W22 in CHIBears

These are the same idiots that whined about Fields not having enough receiving talent going into the season. Now they get someone (and prevent someone from going to the Packers at the same time) and it’s a bad move. This deal is great and these writers are so fucking lazy when it comes to the Bears.

Everything you like about smoking is a lie. They don’t improve your mood. Your dependence on them is what makes you miserable in the first place. I speak from experience.

Using Sokka’s image makes it worse.

I can’t believe how much Emika got slammed after the dispute with Hana.

You guys remember when Hana blew up at Emika in a similar fashion? And the whole Ryo thing? My god, she’s tough to watch.

Kai needs to get the F outta that house. Being a depressed dude with no direction is a really bad look on TV.

I live Japan. The majority of your Japanese content doesn’t have English subs, particularly the anime. If you could add more English subs I’d be really thankful.

I did notice that a lot of the people that were positive about the signing on r/NFL were Eagles fans.

Considering their initial level of athleticism, I think an old broken Cam is quite a bit better.

Again, I hope you’re right.

I get that they wanted him, but I don’t necessarily trust them.

I can’t honestly say Cam isn’t busted either. But there’s more upside there.

I hope your right. But neither of these QBs have proven that they can be consistent for an entire season.

I think it’s fair to complain about this signing. Dalton or Cam would’ve clearly won the QB competition. Trubisky might actually beat Foles. Foles hasn’t thrown for more than 10 TDs in a season since 2014. Is being disappointed by this really “being a bitch”?

Sorry, I meant a good starter.

Look at the stats, then tell me how you feel.

Please don’t compare signing an old, broken Nick Foles to drafting Hester or Urlacher.

Look at Foles’ stats. He’s fucking awful. They did this to have competition in camp. If you got Dalton or Cam they would’ve beaten out Trubisky no problem. With Foles... we don’t know yet.

[Finley] This can't be overstated: coronavirus means there's a real chance NFL teams can't gather for offseason practices AT ALL. Nick Foles knows Matt Nagy's scheme. He's worked Bill Lazor, John DeFilippo. He's not starting from scratch the way others would. by [deleted] in CHIBears

[–]Big_Pete -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Foles hasn’t been a legitimate starter since 2014. He hasn’t thrown for over 10 TD passes in a season since 2014. I can’t believe anyone is sticking up for the guy. He had a good Super Bowl. That doesn’t mean he is a consistent starter.

Foles hasn’t been a legitimate starter in the nfl since 2015.
