I want to know what Japan is like from people who actually live in Japan especially after seeing some misleading posts online from people who don’t live in Japan & people misunderstanding something resulting in people being misleadingly negative about Japan

    There’s a Japanese YouTuber my japanese learning friend would watch called “that Japanese man Yuta” who goes into this

      I know about yuta because I am learning Japanese but I don’t think I have seen their other videos outside of learning Japanese

      Right now I’m slowly working my way through grammer at a pace that works for me

        Do the videos help? I tried Duolingo with learning languages and nothing stuck from them.

          If you’re trying to learn Japanese, wanikani for kanji and bunpro for grammar have been the best resources I’ve found. People recommend to just use anki but I don’t have the time to customize decks and mine sentences for hours on end. Wanikani and bunpro set up a structure that’s easy to follow and understand. I’ve loved using them over the past year.

          With Duolingo, it really helps if you’ve got someone else to practice with who’s working on the same language (or already knows it).

          With duolingo and apps like them I don’t actually use them because they don’t allow you to structure your learning to best help you learn

          Yeah they help but I mainly use them as supplementary information now because hearing the same information explained differently from other sources does help me understand something that may be explained in a way I don’t understand in a specific source

          I mainly use the resources from: https://morg.systems/58465ab9

          And I also created a github page that lists the other resources that I use though I don’t update it that often:
