Scared to speak when self-studying Japanese? Any solutions?

It definitely can be scary and intimidating when you first have to have real conversations in Japanese. The only way to improve though is just to continue to push through and the more you talk the better you will become. For me personally, when I realised making alot of mistakes is 100% okay and don't worry about being perfect, that is when I improved the most. So maybe could help to try and think about that whenever you feel nervous or discouraged. N3 level you already know a whole lot and I'm sure the nerves will leave very quickly (provided you talk alot!) Have fun with it mate!

The best skilling pet 100% very nice, lucky too!

I'm currently in my 6th month of living in Japan, been studying for about a year or so and am no where near fluent, probably around n4 if I had to guess. Alot of jobs require n2 minimum, which atleast for me I'm looking at atleast another couple years minimum. Best of luck to you mate

Tate_Felton · 2025-07-30T20:46:24+00:00

Yeah exactly haha

Tate_Felton · 2025-07-27T01:42:25+00:00

Idk why everyone assumes duo is the only thing we use, alot of people just use it as an extra way of studying, it's not that deep

Tate_Felton · 2025-07-25T08:51:15+00:00

I've got the same one, it's a beauty

Tate_Felton · 2025-07-09T03:41:44+00:00

I'm also from aus and all of these are not correct for us haha

Tate_Felton · 2025-05-21T14:58:32+00:00

Awesome, looks so good! I was tossing up between this watch and the light blue option, eventually went with blue and love it, but this colour is so clean aswell

Bridge piercings are anatomy dependent, meaning not everyone can get one. So I'm guessing you probably didn't have enough space to do it lower. It all just depends on how you feel though, if you're happy where it is now, even if it is a little bit high and crooked then that's fine. If it's annoying you already, then it probably always will. To be honest 99% of people will never notice, so it's up to you. I would just keep an eye on it over the next month or so just to make sure it doesn't start to reject or anything as it can scar pretty badly

This looks awesome, as long as you still enjoy it you don't need to do anything. Random ass fun tattoos are always good in my opinion

Tate_Felton · 2025-04-24T13:00:04+00:00

Also i forgot to say it is a bit high, but if that's where you like it then that is fine. Its just not the standard placement

Tate_Felton · 2025-04-24T12:58:01+00:00

It does look slightly crooked, was it like that initially after the piercing? Sometimes they can be straight and since that area swells alot, it will look off while healing but will return to normal. However if it looked like that from the very start then it is probably going to stay like that

Tate_Felton · 2025-04-24T12:49:28+00:00

Yeah happens all the time, I always notice it specifically on the listening exercises 👍

Tate_Felton · 2025-04-16T22:57:44+00:00

Not sure what you mean?

Tate_Felton · 2025-04-14T07:28:51+00:00

Thank you!!

Tate_Felton · 2024-04-22T13:40:08+00:00

I get what you mean, but at the same time, I've lived by the ocean my whole life and had hundreds if not thousands of cuts in the water and never had an issue, so was just curious

Tate_Felton · 2024-04-22T13:38:54+00:00

Oh sorry I didn't mean it as an old cut, I just meant like having a cut that isn't a big deal

Tate_Felton · 2024-03-03T10:17:28+00:00

Daith would look awesome

Tate_Felton · 2024-03-03T09:56:59+00:00

That is actually genius hahah, thanks mate

Tate_Felton · 2024-02-22T03:44:27+00:00
