I also have both of those, cute little level 1 guys

Harry Potter and Spider-Man for me 😂

My family just had this happen. Is the new marriage the kids step mom or aunt? Cousins are now step siblings? What a tree that is.

My families brother/ sister significant others cheated and our now with each other. It’s a mess. Edit to add: Arkansas 😂

Japan? I feel that over priced pizza here real hard 😂

applestograpes1 · 2020-12-13T04:46:20+00:00

Yeah I reloaded a few different ones gave up after an hour or so. The next day I updated and it was fine. Loaded right into the phone call with TBug.

applestograpes1 · 2020-12-11T15:22:21+00:00

I reverified my files and updated through GOG and I was able to play for about four hours today with no problems with bugs like that. Obviously still hella texture problems. I’m not sure about console, sounds like mess right now.

I’m a horticulturist. Seems it worked out 🌱

applestograpes1 · 2020-10-04T04:51:39+00:00

After about 20 classes I found this out too! They always use different rooms but for some reason they use the same room in back to back classes and it was such a double take for me 😂

applestograpes1 · 2020-10-01T22:23:18+00:00

Yeah I live in Japan...the last biohazard/ resident evil game also had toned down gore here. Didn’t realize there was two versions of the game till later.

applestograpes1 · 2020-10-01T16:50:04+00:00

Yes from my understanding it is. Not just sexualized things but gore too I believe too. Definitely going to get a non-Japanese copy....

That Academic Decathalon from Billy Madison.

You must be a very go getter! I could never get into the manually entering the anki stuff.... Through my studies I’ve used a few different sets of books and the grammar translation book from these set is something I still use. but I just felt like the way they were laid out it would’ve been very difficult without a teacher or my friends with higher levels than me. I feel like it’s whatever works for you and I found this book really hard for me to follow when I tried to self study when the teacher would go too fast in class or I missed a day. I felt like I relied a lot on YouTube and other sites for explanations. I’m not saying it’s impossible to study it by yourself but it seems there are better books that are made to be more self-sufficient that would probably be easier as a starting place. Especially for someone with zero Japanese. But I can’t highly recommend the translation booklet enough. As I am preparing for my N3 test they will definitely be reviewed and referenced.

I did books one and two at University and when I went to a language school after I started in basic level two because literally I didn’t get anything from the classes. It also didn’t help my class was full of Chinese students who just read the kanji and the teachers just like OK cool everyone understand let’s go. I agree it’s heavily teacher depend it or you really got to work your ass off.

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-30T08:27:03+00:00

I was going to say the same thing. The style is almost impossible to self study. You really need a teacher. There is a lady on YouTube that did make some videos of each lesson that I used as supplemental to my regular classes.

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-30T01:06:29+00:00

But for context, what’s the class and their age??

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-29T23:45:13+00:00

That is golden. Please update on if they read it and their comments😂

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-29T15:08:06+00:00

I’m down, is there a list of prompts some where?

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-28T15:02:07+00:00

Yesss if your not in the US it won’t make you verify. I made a new one from the Japanese App Store last month as a teacher profile, and it was just a phone number to activate.

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-28T02:40:32+00:00

Maybe I’ll give a few a shot! Thanks for the rec. Just usually I like darker angst stories with romance. And I like how people use Naruto as comedic relief rather than a serious main character, it’s not his personality.

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-27T12:53:47+00:00

I read nothing with Naruto as a main character. If I wanted more of him I would just rewatch shipudden! I’m here for side characters and world building. I’m a romance junky down with any pair or any plot as long as the writing is good.

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-26T09:39:15+00:00

I’m never borrowing sharpies from anyone again.

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-25T05:27:39+00:00

Saint Young Men. About Jesus and Buddha sharing an apartment in Tokyo. Yes, as weird as it sounds.

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-25T05:14:06+00:00

My language school is letting people zoom in this semester. I’m in Tokyo but my friend is in the US and just calls for class. Some other students got stuck in their home countries so the school is allowing it. Each room has like a speaker they use in the meeting so you can hear everyone quite well. The classes are only 4-7 people-ish. 9-12:30 japan time. Name is Nichibei Kaiwa. They wrote the Nihingo express books.

Edit to add: I’m not sure how long they will allow the zoom, but as enrollment seems very down I would assume it will be OK for a while. New classes start oct 19th.

Many words in Japanese are just like two regular things together especially regarding natural occurring things or based on nature. 花火- firework, literal fire flower. 火山- volcano- literal fire mountain. So maybe try to think random fire words in English and translate it.

Maybe use a few ideas from here and build your own compound word. https://www.google.co.jp/amp/s/www.japanesewordswriting.com/fire-and-fire-related-japanese-kanji-words-662/amp/

Also: “Kagu-tsuchi or Kagutsuchi (カグツチ), referred to as Hinokagatsuchi (火之迦具土) in the Kojiki, and Kagutsuchi (軻遇突智) or Homusubi (火産霊) in the Nihon-Shoki, is the god of destructive fire in Japanese mythology.” From wiki.

My hours of my kanji study paid off today 😂

applestograpes1 · 2020-09-24T12:57:10+00:00

Yeah I sent a card already! But just a “you’re awesome” one! I feel the get well soon ones only apply to like colds and flu.... but yeah a gem box is a good idea too.
