a masterpost: this is how i study japanese・これが私の日本語の勉強法です。
as part of a dialogue with @chokopan, this is how i study japanese.
…i don’t know that anyone else would find my current process helpful or even realistic, though i will detail it in another post.
…Yes please, do share! I think all of us in the langblr community could find something useful to learn from you. The more we all talk about how we learn, the more ideas we’re exposed to - which can help us come up with new study methods we wouldn’t have thought of trying before. Like I said before, everyone learns differently; but sometimes, mixing it up with a new technique or note-taking method, for example, could help push us out of studying ruts or times of low motivation. To that end, I’d like to know what resources you use when you’re breaking down kanji and etymology. It seems like you’re learning kanji in a sort of… non-traditional way.
this is my response. it is a Very Long Post, but i hope others find it helpful. for the method i use to learn kanji specifically, go here.
