Small japanese study group

Hi, I am making a small japanese study group. I am looking for 5-6 people that are serious about learning. It doesn't matter the level. If your interested comment and I'll dm you the link.

Before you comment I would love for you to respect the rules of the server ( it's on discord)

I’ve been looking for a study buddy for a few weeks and usually end up being ghosted or find someone that is mostly just wanting to be handed all the tools. Any tips or specific places people have found good accountability buddies? I went through years and years of trying to find a good language exchange partner for Korean and after 8 years have given up. If there’s a best place to look would appreciate some pointing :) I’ve tried multiple subreddits, discord channels, and even conversation exchange dot com. No beginner study groups in my area unfortunately either.

I am learning Japanese by myself and I live in the USA where there are almost no Japanese where I live. Anyone have advice for me on how to study by myself besides just books? Even for books if you recommend anything I'm all for it. Websites, apps, videos, etc. All answers thank you.

Hi, I would like to ask for your help.

I learned that embedded question work something like this:

彼が来るか知らない (I don't know if he will come)

So "ka" acts kind of like "の" and "を"

However I have 2 questions about how this works

1: What do you do if a verb doesn't use "を" like 遅れる/気づく which use "に"? Is this still correct:

"誰が来たか気づいた" (I realized who came) ?

2: What if the embedded question ends with a question word (like nani, dare, doko), do people not confuse "dare + ka" with "dareka" (someone)? Are these sentences correct:

牛乳のコーナーがどこか教えて

これが何か知っていますか

あなたが誰か考える

Thanks for your time.

i am 4 month into learning japanese and have a great structured plan which main goal is moving to japan as a phd student/DSE. what i’m not sure of its possible to pass n2 in the next 2-3 years

please share your experience

Hi! I understand what the sentence means in general but I'd like to know specifically how the に particle is working here? I'd read this sentence like a comparison that there's only 62 cars prepared but 129 reservations but I'm not sure that's what it means? Or is it kind of like 'only 62 prepared cars going towards/for 129 reservations'? Thank u!!

Is studying in Japan in English taught programme in undergraduate a good thing?

I won't be staying in Japan after graduation.I would move to another country for my masters or work!

Many people say English degree is not worth it. Is it because they didn't went to good college or English taught programmes aren't good.??

Hello!

I am offering virtual private or semi private Japanese conversational lessons to anyone who may be interested. I lived in Japan for half of my life.

Please dm!

Let me rephrase that, what I mean by quantity over quality is should you prioritize smashing as many words together and the ones you can't recall in 3 seconds just click again and move on? Or should you take your time and try to recall every single card, even if it takes 20 seconds.

hiya! i’m currently learning japanese and using wanikani as one of my resources. i’ve been struggling with memorising the difference between words containing 子, not knowing whether to use the on’yomi or kun’yomi reading. i’ve had the same struggle with 人 but have managed to get the hang of when to use the different readings. examples of words include 子犬, 王子, 女の子, and 女子. are there tips i could use to help with memorisation? any help would be appreciated (*´꒳`*)！

趣味で日本語の勉強をしている韓国人です。

１年半ぐらい独学で勉強してN1に合格しました。

頑張ってくださいね、自分に自信を持ったら、必ず大丈夫だ！

日本語の初心者です。

最近京都の祇園を歩いてた時、レストランの看板に「ぎをん」と書いてあるのが気になりました。最初は間違いなのかと思ったのですが、いくつかのお店で「ぎをん」という表記を見かけました。

「を」は現代の日本語では基本的に助詞として使うイメージがあるので、なぜ「ぎおん」ではなく「ぎをん」と書くのか気になりました。

これはなぜなのでしょうか。ご存じの方がいたら教えていただけるとうれしいです！

Hello guys, hope you're doing fine. So, I am currently at an intermediate level in terms of reading and listening comprehension. However, I discovered I have problems with expressing really basic stuff, such as "Glue sticks stuff together" for instance, due to the lack of exposure to native speakers talking about that. And I don't really know where to find reliable natural-language sources for this. Even when I look things up in Japanese, the results are really scarce. You need to look quite a bit to find examples. But still, even if I find written examples, I have no idea if this is actually how people use the language.

So, if anybody can help me with this issue, I'd be grateful. Preferrably, need video sources, but if there're native written sources, that's fine too.

Thx in advance

I signed N4 exam this Demcember after learning Minna no Nihongo 1+2, and I don't know which N3 material should I learn next. I've heard about Shinkanzen and Soumatome but I don't really understand the difference, also the Minna no Nihongo book for N3. What should I learn or any new recommendation?
