I used to study Japanese, I even had the Genki textbooks & workbooks but I ended up selling them to a friend before using them myself like a dummy. Now they're so expeeeensive gonk
I learned a good bit but never actually committed to it, just immersed myself in media and casually browsed some chats/easy reads. I'd love to be able to speak the language more, but where I live there's 0 use for it and nobody to talk to so unless I'm constantly aggressively pursuing it, it kind of falls out of my head crying
I listen to Japanese music & watch Japanese movies with subs, and watch interviews of my fave JP artists, and watch tiktoks made by Japanese people speaking casual Japanese. I used to use apps to find Japanese people to practice with but it was always either stiff & felt formal and awkward or I hit a cultural wall where I "knew" what they were saying but completely missed the context or just didn't get it.
My kana reading skills are pretty good, and I know a good handful of basic kanji/phrases by sight but as stated before, since I really get no practice other than what I do/find myself, which is really one-sided, I don't know how to keep it fresh and keep learning. I'm afraid if I tried speaking Japanese now I'd sound like a bad AI trying to read a 20-year old textbook with random dated internet slang thrown in sweatdrop
It would be nice to have a Japanese language chat thread somewhere for learners to get practice in I think 3nodding
