๐Ÿ“š๐Ÿ“š Read every day challenge - Spring 2023 ๐ŸŒธ๐ŸŒท๐ŸŒผ

April 11 & 12 :cherry_blossom: Home Post

I continue to be less on my reading game than usual :joy: thatโ€™s what happens when I get invested in games that arenโ€™t in Japanese oh no yesterday I started scoping out the next section for the Zero Escape club, and today I just did some reading for class.

I started replaying Super Mario 64 (but on Switch) and I decided I might as well play it in Japanese for the little text there is. I lasted until the first textbox, the hiragana font was stupidly hard to read (just all over the place), so Iโ€ฆ restarted in English. xD

Days 11 and 12 Progress:
ใ€†ๅˆ‡ๅ‰ใซใฏ็™พๅˆใŒๆ—ใ‚‹ ไบŒๅทป - 0.40% โ†’ 14.90%
ใ‚นใƒญใƒผใƒซใƒผใƒ— 56่ฉฑ

Not too exciting of a couple of days as far as reading goes, unfortunately.

Getting to read my monthly Slow Loop chapter is always nice though. And chibi ๆ‹(ใ“ใ„) and ใฒใ‚ˆใ‚Š are both very cute.

Word of the Day: ๆณข็€พไธ‡ไธˆ(ใฏใ‚‰ใ‚“ใฐใ‚“ใ˜ใ‚‡ใ†) - stormy and full of drama; many drastic events in the course of events. Composed of ๆณข็€พ(ใฏใ‚‰ใ‚“) (disturbances and troubles) and ไธ‡ไธˆ(ใฐใ‚“ใ˜ใ‚‡ใ†) (congratulations!), I like the image of celebrating the end of one hell of a stormy and trouble journey.

This may shock some people, but I have been learning Japanese on an off for around 15 years. This year, I am determined to improve my Kanji recognition and overall reading ability, so for this month I will be focusing on the ่ชญใฟ็‰ฉ section of my current textbook, An Integrated Approach to Intermediate Japanese. I will post here each day about my progress or any interesting words/other observations that I have.

I have never read any Japanese manga, but this is also an opportunity to start. So, I am hoping to read the Vinland Saga manga either online or through paper copy. Those will be my two reading materials for this month. Good luck everyone! <3

iโ€™ve taken the plunge, iโ€™ve finally started ้€†่ปขๆคœไบ‹(ใŽใ‚ƒใใฆใ‚“ใ‘ใ‚“ใ˜)! itโ€™s going a lot smoother than i was expecting, iโ€™m having a lot of fun. iโ€™m about halfway through the first case, i think? took a while but i had to take a long break in the middle to do some other stuff so that might have prolonged how long it felt compared to how long it actually was.

words that stood out: ๅฐ็„ก(ใ ใ„ใช)ใ— (spoiled, messed up, coming to nothing), ่ขซๅฎณ่€…(ใฒใŒใ„ใ—ใ‚ƒ) (victim) and ่ขซๅ‘Šไบบ(ใฒใ“ใใซใ‚“) (defendant) cos i read them too fast and confuse the two constantly, even theyโ€™ve only got one kanji in common :joy: and ๆจฉๅจ(ใ‘ใ‚“ใ„) (authority, power, influence) which i believe turns up in wanikani but iโ€™m mentioning cos the pixel font does not treat this word nicely.

  • ใ†ใŸใ‚ใ‚Œใ‚‹ใ‚‚ใฎ : ไบŒไบบใฎ็™ฝ็š‡
Words of the day
  • ใพใšใพใš = passable; not so bad. While ใพใ™ใพใ™ is increasingly (็›Šใ€…(ใพใ™ใพใ™)).

  • ใกใพใกใพ(.) = small and neatly compact

I wanted to read ใ‚ˆใคใฐใจ today but for some reason mokuro doesnt work on this device (maybe because I changed the hard drive in my computer?). super upset about that because I was tired and I had a laid-out plan for reading sighh, migth have to look into it tomorow.

Anyways, for today, I read two chapters from Sakura and Suzuki. It was short, but it did have some difficult words.

Ooooh! Hope you have fun! Not too huge on GK1 but GK2 might easily be my favorite game in the franchise (which is a surprise considering Shuu Takumiโ€™s non-involvement in the game)

Not sure if Iโ€™ll do this everyday, but I have a book about the traditional colours of Japan that I got awhile back and have been meaning to go through properly - but just never got around to it. But I want to go through the colours and sort them for Ukiyo-e projects.

Reading a paper book is a lot harder than just being able to copy-paste a unknown word, even more difficult when the kanji isnโ€™t on WaniKani and I have to somehow navigate Jishoโ€™s radical search featureโ€ฆ they all look so foreign compared to WKโ€™s radicals, even if the are practically the same.

Todayโ€™s Bonus Colours
ๆ’ซๅญ่‰ฒใชใงใ—ใ“ใ„ใ‚ - Pink (Dianthus) colour

:deciduous_tree: Tobira - chp. 2 ่ชญใฟ็‰ฉ parts 3-5

The last two parts about style was about the inversion of sentences (โ€œNegation of X. Because Y.โ€) and some conventions of the written language I was not aware of yet. For example, if one were to write a thesis they would use ใ  or ใงใ‚ใ‚‹! Now I really want to read a Japanese style guide for academic textsโ€ฆ Something for later.

:white_flower: A Dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar (p. 28 - p.35)
Finally I was able to read a few more pages in this book. I am still way behind the bookclub though. Ah well, I hope I will catch up during the next weekend or so.
Today I read about the personal pronouns and the passive. It was really interesting. Espacially the pages about the passive. I have the feeling, that I already understand it better than before.

:mag: ๅๆŽขๅตใ‚ณใƒŠใƒณ vol. 1 (p. 101 โ†’ p. 116)
I also read one chapter in Conan. After reading happiness the last few days, itโ€™s quite a change again to have to look up kanji/words on every page. But I guess only that way I am going to learn new stuff and can make progress. :muscle:

  • ๅ››ๆœˆใฏๅ›ใฎๅ™“ ch 14 - This is definitely one of my favorite performances in the show, and even in the manga itโ€™s super powerful. Obviously the show benefits from having actual music, like most adaptations of music stories (k-on, bocchi, sound euphonium, etc etc), but itโ€™s shocking to me that even in the manga panels I can sometimes tell what part of the piece she is supposed to be playing.

April 13th!

I started reading the first light novel of Orange today.
Reading prose is still kind of intimidating for me, but I was pleasantly surprised with how much I was able to read smoothly without needing to look things up :slight_smile:

I only got up to Page 14, but Iโ€™m really pleased that I plucked up the courage to get started with this.
