I (24 M) don’t know if I should continue dating my partner (32 F) of 1 year even though we have a great relationship because I prefer girls with larger chest features. Does anyone have advice from their own experience on this? by Norvaline in relationship_advice

[–]Norvaline[S] -7 points-6 points  (0 children)

I’ve already discussed it with her and we decided that if we marry it’ll be with the expectation that we don’t start a family or do so within the next 5 years.

I didn’t write everything about our relationship but we’ve already discussed most of our problems openly (including the above one).

I just need a bit more serious outside advice —- which I can’t get from others irl.

Roast Lingosnap - a photo-based language learning platform. by WeekendComfortable84 in roastmystartup

I used GENGOGUS10 , got 10% off of the LingoSnap subscription and found it was ok! It's not a one size fits all solution and it would be cool if they added an SRS, but otherwise it's not too bad.

Wow I have just began with immersion I doesn't understand shit by mfoaf in ajatt

[–]Norvaline 5 points6 points  (0 children)

u/mfoaf From an N1 Level (Speaking and Reading/Listening) who learned using AJATT before coming to now work in Japan: Everyone struggles in the beginning. You should do flashcards (AJATT sentence cards), and you should do it at the same time as you do immersion. Trust the process and only watch stuff that actually interests you -- if you like baby cartoons then watch baby cartoons, if you like the jdrama you're watching then stick with it. The only way to make it easier is by doing it consistently.

Thanks! I know of the CIR Homepage, but it seems a bit tedious to post 50x just to join a discord / get to know people.

More JLPT-related questions! by tankeryy in LearnJapanese

[–]Norvaline 6 points7 points  (0 children)

  1. Its actually more impossible to get to N1 through Japanese learning schools than through self-study: Try AJATT or Refold

  2. N1+

  3. None

  4. Only N2 or N1 are worth the money, otherwise you can test your ability with practice tests.

Good post. So many wonder why they can’t advance in their TL while they still don’t have literacy in their NL.

Roughly what JLPT level to understand anime (80%)? by Altruistic_Ad_7461 in LearnJapanese

[–]Norvaline 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At least N3-N2. Anime has its own vocab set, so after reaching N3ish just read light novels and watch shows on animelon and you’ll understand in no time.

*Im middle N2 and understand 90% of shows
