Kenshin_sama Posted September 14, 2016 Posted September 14, 2016 Confession: For some reason a purchase I made that showed up on my bank statement is no longer there and I'm wondering if I should be worried about that or not. On one hand I might be able to get away with $500 of free money, but on the other hand I might end up with fraud charges. I probably should call my bank... Edit: Alright, I decided to call them. Turns out sometimes a purchase can fall off the statement, but it should come back up sometime within a week, and maybe a month. I'll have to make sure I keep that amount in my bank when it does come back up, lol. Edit 2: You know, I'm kinda glad I decided to call them. A short time after I called, I realized that this might be one of their tricks to get me to overdraft. I keep forgetting I'm not allowed to trust my bank. Soulless Watcher 1 Quote

Heh, at least that would indicate some level of intelligence on their part. My bank routinely locks me out of my account whenever I back something off of kickstarter, blocks my payments for my housing fees, and I'm convinced they are somehow responsible for why I can never buy anything from Mangagamer. They even tried to give me all of my sister's money when she made her account independent from our parents. Kenshin_sama 1 Quote

Don't you already know most of those? Like Kawasumi said, immersion will help a lot. Watch some subbed anime for your breaks or something and listen carefully and it'll help solidify this stuff.

Wtf? Vocabulary and writing basics, ok. Counting from 1-10, okay. (Once you have those down, you can count to 99 as well, fair enough.) But all the other crap crammed into one test, a simple week after learning hiragana? That is absurd. Not to mention verbs in the second week?! Dafuq?! What book are these people following? (Sweet lord don't say Genki, because if that is the case, they are literally doing it wrong.) I mean, I already know Japanese, and I find myself rather swamped right now, because of all the stuff I have to turn in. I don't have to learn it beforehand, I just have to write it down and hand it in. You must be in hell, lol. Well, best of luck Eclipsed, and may God have mercy on your soul. 頑張ってください!

We're not starting writing until next week, but after a few practice runs I can basically write any of the hiragana/katakana. It's probably due to the fact that I learned to read them over 3 years ago Quote

gunter Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 i started japanese class today... sooo... konbanwa! watashi wa gunter desu ... and ,crap ,i dont know how to say anything else ,but that's nearly a start from the scratch ^^ also , we had to find wich english names were written in katakana,and then wrote them in katakanas but with the french pronunciation ,and i must say that i was surprised cause some katakana version were really...strange ... how the hell were we supposed to know that arthur = ア-サ- ? overall,it was fun and interesting, i hope i'll learn some usefull things soon Quote
Eclipsed Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 yay more peers taking jp classes u just started and you're doing katakana wtf my class started with hiragana. we're starting kk soon though, i think. next week. the transition's gonna rekt me i bet ._. はじめまして - hajimemashite いくりぷすです - ikuripusu (eclipsed ) desu どうぞよろしく - doozo yoroshiku Quote
Kurisu-Chan Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 simple, there's no french R sound in japanese, so you generally skip it in japanese. Quote
Dergonu Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 20 minutes ago, Eclipsed said: いくりぷすです - ikuripusu (eclipsed ) desu This is the reason why I'm mad at my friend in Japanese class. His name is literally just "Chi." So yeah. His name is one katakana... So unfair. アンドレアス takes some time to write, and it sounds dumb with the "do" and "su" there. えくりぷす (エクリプス) is better in my opinion. Your name does start with "e", so using "i" instead seems a bit odd. Eclipsed 1 Quote
gunter Posted September 20, 2016 Posted September 20, 2016 yep ,but it's a class apart of my highschool ones , and i'm not with the group who start completly from the scratch,because of my ridiculous timetable... so i'm with persons who at least know how to introduce themselves and have a lil chat in Japanese with the teacher ... For them ,it was more a lil quizz to check if they remembered their katakana well. for me ,it was a totally new thing erf (even if i knew hiraganas ) and yeah kurisu , but at first i hadn't seen how the hell the two words were linked (the fact that we pronounce the "th" from arthur " t" wasn't helping eh ) Quote
