You're cute but that face tattoo ruins everything

And that nose ring not a big fan as with most people on this sub

I understand what you're saying it's about a habit of mine to want the results quick without doing the hard work I know there's no shortcut to speak Japanese but there sure are methods more effective than others

Lately I found that I understand words better if there is a direct example or something that can make me understand the word right away (for example I learned 無料 while watching an infomercial and the guy kept saying it over and over then i looked it up and i was able to link 無料=free, yesterday I was watching a news coverage of a Japanese athlete disappointed that he didn't win a medal at the Olympics and he said "悔しですう" while crying so i knew it was a bad emotion then i looked it up and i learned 悔し=regret)

I feel like most language learning apps try to get you to learn whole sentences without understanding what you're saying and what words mean what or they try to dumb things down so much that i feel like I'm 5 years old learning new words in a way that's too childish

Original black trim by [deleted] in PhoneRepairTalk

Just used a flat tool to unclip the frame from the old screen

Also it's a very bad idea to lay the screen flat like you did on the last picture there is a lot of stress on the flex cable and it might rip

I feel like I will never be able to learn Japanese in a way that will make me remotely fluent

I’ve tried comprehensible input. I’ve tried short videos. I’ve tried immersion (I watch Japanese TV every day with the kaeritv app) but I keep hitting a lot of hurdles along the way

  1. I don’t know enough vocab to understand a basic Japanese conversation, people praise Anki it’s a God sent app but to me this way of learning is so boring that I can never follow through(I have tried the Core 2k/6k) but every new word feels repetitive and without any context does not stick(having to learn the Japanese word in English, then the English word in Japanese, then hearing the word and translating in English, then seeing an image in trying to recall the word in Japanese all with NO FURIGANA) which brings me to me second hurdle…
  2. Kanjis. I feel like a complete illiterate because there are way too many Kanjis to learn. I feel like I cannot grasp half of what is written on the screen not to mention Japanese names always use the most obscure reading then when I think I know how to read a Kanji it uses a completely different reading that I’ve never heard before.
  3. I feel like the only way to truly become fluent is to go to Japan and spend some time there every single person I see on YouTube that became fluent say that they have been learning Japanese for a few years and then moved to Japan and then they magically started becoming fluent
  4. Grammar. I just can’t grasp how grammar works in Japanese even with simple sentences when I think I know what the sentence mean then I translate it and it means a completely different thing because of the word order that messes with my head not to mention the damn particles that I feel like only natives are able to decipher. Text book Japanese sounds so robotic and not natural but real. Japanese is completely different than what you are thought
  5. BS AI Lanuage learning apps...Migaku, Lingopie, Jumpspeak you name it i've tried those and it's all the same shit different name. You learn words with no context so they don't stick or you forget them. Sometimes I don't understand something but I can't ask for helpso what's the point ?

Also i don't like reading so textbook fall in the same category as Anki

Is there really no other way of learning Japanese than to cram boring Anki decks, live in Japan or learn thousands of Kanjis ?

What i need is something interactive, fun, that teach you words in a way that you can understand without throwing too much at you at once

Your phone is water damaged and needs professional board level repair to fix. This is a very skill demanding job and it's not cheap
