October 20th!

Today I has a lesson with my tutor. We talked about my plans for work for next year, and an event I went to last Friday.  
We also reviewed my answers from a mock test I did earlier this week.

Watching stuff on youtube is so fun, I don’t feel like it should count as studying. Especially since I only understand like every third sentence. I am looking up words though, and tried the [jotoba](https://jotoba.de/) radical search for kanji from the subtitles. Worked great!

10月20日 (金)

YUYU 12 and 13 (~25 min)  
Remaining FMA episodes, 8 or so

10月21日 (土)

Noriko 87 (8 min)  
Tobira audios (~5 min)

10月22日 (日)

Noriko 88 (6 min)  
Akane 35 and 36 (10 min)  
1 ep of 舞妓さんちのまかないさん

I was a bit sad to finish FMA, but decided today to check out the netflix series from last year for 舞妓さんちのまかないさん. What stood out for me the most so far is how the order of the storytelling differs from the manga, which is quite interesting. Will definitely watch some more.

October 22nd

Two more Nihongo no Mori N3 Kotoba videos dosay - 28 and 29.  
The latter had 2 exam style questions in it, and I got both right, so that was nice!

## 🍂 `10月16日から22日` 🍁

🎧 Back to my [home post](https://community.wanikani.com/t/63366/39)

I managed to listen to so many things this week! Some of them were spooky, some were silly, and some were autobiographical. There was a Mexican folk tale about the Woman in White, there was a Japanese folk tale about some [Till Eulenspiegel](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Till_Eulenspiegel) [equivalent](https://ja.wikipedia.org/wiki/%E5%90%89%E5%9B%9B%E5%85%AD), and something about the nobel peace prize nominee[Floyd Schmoe](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floyd_Schmoe) and his work in Japan.

Other things weren’t as interesting and therefore less memorable, but I noticed that though I was struggling to catch everything, I was able to intuit way more things than I thought.I may not be able to follow regular speed speech quite yet, especially if the vocab is lacking, but my mind is quickly getting used to working at that pace.

**Week 3 Recap（１６日〜２２日）**

([home post](https://community.wanikani.com/t/listen-every-day-challenge-fall-2023/63366/24))

Managed to do some listening six out of seven days last week. I continued to watch _The Journalist_ and review old japanesepod101 lessons for my core listening, then supplemented with NHK News and Nihongo con Teppei podcasts.

No new insights this week, other than continuity seems to help. I may not be able to understand much of an NHK story the first day, but when the story’s revisited the next day I can usually grasp a lot more.

Listened to this podcast. With the Japanese subtitles, I feel like I was comfortably able to keep up and understand about 80% of this, which was a nice motivation boost! I also learnt what the three largest cities in Mexico are ha.

From this, discovered Yuyu’s channel, and listened to his live stream yesterday whilst I was working, so will be doing that again tomorrow 🙂

That’s an interesting video - I understood much or even most of the dialog, mostly without looking at the subtitles (because the pace of the conversation is fast enough that the subtitles do not stick around on-screen for long).

I will have to bookmark that one and will have to check out the Yuyu podcast.
