Japanese Reading of Jude ユダの手紙, a book of the Bible
GGoing Full RetardThis is coming from a Catholic version of the Bible 聖書, ISBN 978-4-8056-4831-5 . https://www.abebooks.com/servlet/SearchResults?kn=978-4-8056-4831-5 Obviously, I am not a native speaker yet I may as well try reading aloud as if story hour for the children. Helps me in my utility of the Japanese language and, perhaps, could be helpful for someone else looking for ideas on how to improve their proficiency in the Japanese language. Generally just me reading the Bible, the book of Jude, and I kept all the commentary in Japanese since... The video is using the Japanese language. lol. I didn't have to but, ya know, people generally like keeping languages the same throughout. ... It could be useful to section off Japanese reading using non-Japanese commentary but, hey, it's a little fun to keep it all in Japanese. For some reason, people are very particular when they are learning Japanese and, as such, I may as well help show that if they want immersion... Just force everything to be in the target language. It's typical learning techniques that people use for all other languages. For some reason, with Japanese, those particular learners just... Don't either think of doing it, don't put much weight onto doing it, or... something. I dunno. Regardless. Here ya go, lol. Maybe it's because the Japanese are a bit weird, in a fun and healthy and pleasant way, regarding foreigners. More so than others. I dunno. Lots of thought poured into the idea but, ya know, whatever. Ad astra per aspera.24 views -

GGoing Full RetardBeen using the list at http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/ for over a decade, now. Just read off the hiragana so you can focus on the kanji to the left, and the English to the right.

Japanese Practice, JLPT N4 Vocabulary
GGoing Full RetardBeen using the list at http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/ for over a decade, now. Just read off the hiragana so you can focus on the kanji to the left, and the English to the right. A good way to practice "long" vowels is just to read the hiragana... If you have u-u, then say u-u. lol. UwU7 views -
Japanese Practice, JLPT N3 Vocabulary; Part 1
GGoing Full RetardBeen using the list at http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/ for over a decade, now. Just read off the hiragana so you can focus on the kanji to the left, and the English to the right. N3 has 93 pages, N2 is about as long, and then N1 has like 190-something pages so... Probably going to end up making it into parts... There is some commentary along the way so... Yeah... If you don't like it, then make a better one which is more to your liking. lol3 views -

GGoing Full RetardBeen using the list at http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/ for over a decade, now. Just read off the hiragana so you can focus on the kanji to the left, and the English to the right.

Japanese Practice, JLPT N2 Vocabulary; Part 2
GGoing Full RetardBeen using the list at http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/ for over a decade, now. Just read off the hiragana so you can focus on the kanji to the left, and the English to the right. Stopped a few times while doing this so as to leave some social commentary... lol... XD I'm still trying to process my feelings on particular opinions that I have which are informed yet not exactly settled. As such, at least I have what I have and... Maybe it's not nice but, ya know, it can be corrected if someone has a better argument for a different opinion. Whatever lol.2 views -
Japanese Practice, JLPT N2 Vocabulary; Part 3
GGoing Full RetardBeen using the list at http://www.tanos.co.uk/jlpt/ for over a decade, now. Just reading off the hiragana so you can focus on the kanji to the left, and the English to the right. As like the other ones, I end up stopping to do commentary since, ya know, I'm doing this and it's getting annoying lmao. It's a first time actually going through everything AND it's recorded hahaha. But like, one day, it would be nice to have a fully polished version of all of this. For now, at least the idea is being executed for others to try out for themselves and do a better job than I was able to at this moment.2 views -
