I made a blog post with my 🇯🇵 Japanese language resources!

You can find lots of links to mostly free resources for courses/lessons, JLPT study material, grammar, kanji, reading & listening material etc. on my blog:

@PetraVC I like dabbling and do it from time to time too 😁 It can be nice to take a break from your TLs, it's interesting to get to know the basics of other languages and I also often find it motivating to continue with my TLs after a bit. So yay for dabbling 😊

February 22nd

Cats say にゃん(nyan) in Japanese.

にゃんにゃんにゃん(nyan nyan nyan)

Today is 猫の日 (ねこのひ neko no hi), Cat Day in Japan. It’s 2022-02-22, so this year people celebrate it as #スーパー猫の日, Super Cat Day!

@kato_MinLang 早く元気になってね。 🤗

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@PetraVC @italki Yes! 😊
And yep, time off can be so good, nothing wrong with that. It can give us more energy for the next month 💪

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@keislanguages That's good! Also something not everyone can say they have experienced 😄

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@keislanguages Oh wow, that sounds bad 😨

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@kato_MinLang Sounds motivating! 😊

I've never tried this type of keyboard... But I'm curious and will most probably try one day.

[伝統工芸チャンネル @jp_trad_crafts]

Do you use this type of keyboard when you write Japanese ?

↓日本語テンキーって言うらしい

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@WondrousSnow If it takes longer that's fine. Not everyone is the same and putting more time into something is not wrong 😊

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@Whimsicalminds Hahaha I thought the same 😁

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@keislanguages Yep, summer is more usual, in winter it's pretty rare... Which is good, I really hate it when we get it 😅

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@MobileMally Happy birthday! 😊

[Word Cat @wordcat]

It's so nice when you just learned a new word or grammar point and then immediately read/hear it somewhere. You're like "Yes, I can understand this and know what it means!" Sooo good and motivating 😊

So I reset my Bunpro progress in September but then never did anything 🙈 Until about 2.5 weeks ago when I finally restarted it. And so far it's going well!

[Word Cat @wordcat]

After my success with resetting Anki, I just reset my entire progress on Bunpro too. It's time to look at some grammar again 💪 As with Anki, I will only do a bit every day.

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@SCAaronH It's categorized in JLPT levels but also some learning books (Genki etc). I currently follow the Tobira path and basically use it in addition to the book. You could try the lite version (free forever + 1 month additional features) and see if you like it 🙂 2/2

[Word Cat @wordcat]

@SCAaronH Oh wow, I never saw this reply, sorry! Personally I find it useful because I get to review grammar points regularly, including ones that you might not see often when reading etc.
They also have lots of example sentences (learning in context) and explanations. 1/2

[アンヤ / Anja (日本語勉強中) @kato_MinLang]

Can you recommend japanese podcasts (aimed at native speakers, not learners) where they talk about daily life topics? I'm interested in different topics, but since my vocabulary is not high enough I'm looking for less complex podcasts.
