However, I have tried to keep on top of my reviews. I haven’t let them slip past 80 or so. I also haven’t been able to do new lessons every day, but I have slowly been making my way through them. I’m almost caught up with all of my vocabulary lessons now though. If I can keep up the pace of the past few days, then I should be learning new kanji next week!
I’m currently in my spring break here in Japan, so I don’t have my regular job until the first week of April. But because they moved me from a 3 day job to a 5 day job from April, I have so much to do in preparation! Hence why I’m not keeping up to my previously very regular lesson format!
Still here though, and still keeping things moving!
Have been mostly keeping up with reviews. I have whittled down my lessons to the last batch. Hopefully I can get these done tomorrow, and get back on track with new kanji!
I’'ve enjoyed many of the level 7 vocabulary items, such as 本当に, 日記, 作家, ～丁目, 中学生 and 小学生, as well as a few more. Many of them I know the meaning for already, and some are just interesting so it’s easier to remember them! I also like the mnemonic for 教える.
Woohoooo! congratulations on your progress and commitment!
My lesson picker screen looks quite similar - whittling away at level 19 vocab, occasionally letting myself do a couple of level 20 kanji
Apologies if you’ve answered this elsewhere in your study log, but are there any other things alongside WK that you’re doing to learn and/or enjoy Japanese? No pressure ofc, just curious
Yeah, I finally got through all of my level 7 vocabulary today! Now I’m going to pace things better. 3 kanji and 9 vocabulary a day.
I’m currently only doing WK, and then everyday Japanese exposure and usage here in Japan. I haven’t actively been doing anything else for a little while now, partly because of time. I’m waiting to find the right moment to start trying to read a few manga I have stacked on my desk! I’m also planning to subscribe to BunPro once I hit level 10.
I had been doing Rocket Japanese, BunPro and playing a couple of games in Japanese. I’ve had to put these on hold due to not having enough time though.
I had a couple of months where I was able to really grind with my studies, but things got a bit busy from the end of February onwards. I’m hoping I can get back to doing a bit more, but it is unlikely to be until around summer I think! Sadly…
Oh yeah, sorry I had forgotten that you are in Japan! That’s awesome, I’m sure you’re getting lots of good doses of Japanese as you go about your days
I miss Japan sometimes but I’m also content here in South Africa now so can’t really complain I’m excited to visit again in the next few years though currently balancing Japanese keenness with a desire to get better at Afrikaans and possibly also learn Xhosa… there are just too many cool languages
Thanks for sharing your journey with us, and long may it continue fruitfully
Finally made it to level 9! I spent a lot longer than I wanted on level 8, but I’m glad that I didn’t let the vocabulary pile get too big again!
I have kept my reviews going for the most part, but don’t always find the time. I have struggled to regularly do new lessons though. The mornings and afternoons are so busy, and by the time I get to the evening, I have no brainpower left, and I know it will be a lost cause to try to remember new kanji at that point. I have made it to level 9 now, but I still have 39 level 8 vocabulary to get through, so I will wait until I get through the rest of them before moving on to level 9 kanji. I did however do all of the new radicals!
It’s now golden week here in Japan, so I’m going to do a few bonus lessons as I have a bit more free time.
congratulations on your progress and commitment!
