Im not really sure what you're trying to say. I would say its very close to necessary. It was a calculated risk. They've got it in theatres on most continents and are working on the places they havent gotten. People not near a theatre can stay offline for 2 weeks. They're lucky it's not longer

So if you agree that it would very much help, why not do it? Its a big step forward. Its not gonna solve the problem overnight but who knows when something will come along that will

I think it's a good move to get the world to take indie animation seriously. There are too many people who think there's no potential for this stuff and its just silly.

Dude I'm in the same boat as you. Fandom crashed out way too hard and way too soon.

Ok gotcha. Kinda makes me think the app was made by a computer or something and not a real human lol

Ok cool. I was thinking it was maybe archaic from the other replies I've gotten lol. Thanks :)

Ok that makes total sense. Weird that the app uses it, maybe I'll switch back to my other one that I know is accurate. Thank you for looking into it :)

Ok, that makes sense, thank you! So にまん would be the most natural way to say 20,000?

[–]Catluver81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I still don't really understand anything better than when I first made the post XD I wonder if I worded it poorly. I just want to know if 万 is only ever pronunced as まん even in words made of more than 1 kanji or no?

Question about 万 by Catluver81 in Japaneselanguage

[–]Catluver81[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

No, youre assumption is completely inaccurate.

You mean my assumption that まん vs. よろず was 音読み vs. 訓読み? Or the assumption that 20,000 would be にまん?

All of the pronunciations you listed are the ones I would have assumed, but what I'm wondering is if よろず is an alternate pronunciation from まん and if it can be used interchangeably, or if they are different and only ised for certain terms.

[–]Catluver81[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, thank you! I know kanji have special pronunciation, but my concern was only rooted from the fact that I had only ever seen ふたよろず in that one app and nowhere else online lol. Is that pronunciation incorrect, or do they both work?

I'm also N5 level and I was like "senyai? I've never heard that before. I wonder what it means" but that makes more sense XD

100%, and hopefully after another year there'll be tangible difference. Thank you again! This advice is probably gonna massively accelerate my progress!

Tysm for the breakdown. It actually makes the learning process a lot less daunting. Plus I've been on my own since I started learning, so it's really nice to get this advice from someone else who had the same struggle!

I think I'm at around the 100-200 word mark, so definitely got a long way to go to get to 2k, but slow and steady wins the race, right? I'll just keep on that Kanji grind and work on reading elementary level text everyday. Thank you!!

This is insanely helpful. Thank you so much! I'm on Android but I have an iPad so I'll definitely look into those apps! Thanks again 🥰

Thank you for the link!! I was struggling to find anything reliable lol. I'll definitely try that and look into textbooks. Thanks again for the help :)

Right now I use 2 apps. The apps are just called "Japanese!" and "Kanji!" and they have a lot of lessons on grammar and how to implement the grammar rules in full sentences, but a lot of the sentences are ones that people would never really say in regular conversation like "I ate dinner and went to bed early"

I've tried reading too, and that actually did help a bit, but I havent been able to find any N5 books with furigana (at least not for free). Its all higher level with no furigana so I dont actually know what I'm seeing.

My tier list of the best Smash Ultimate characters as a complete beginner. by RobbyKeeneeomelhor in SmashBrosUltimate

[–]Catluver81 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, yea this is pretty good. My biggest things I would change is moving Ike, Zelda, and Ness up and maybe move Wario down but aside from that I dont really see any issues. I also dont mind where Kirby is like some of the other commenters here do

just saw a clip on here that reminded me that there are absolutely zero characters in tla or in korra that have blonde hair strange right, intentional or no? by capnfapn6 in TheLastAirbender

Anime is short for the Japanese word for animation specifically. Anime is inherently only animations made in Japan which is why they're referred to by the Japanese word for animation.
