Smart.fm “upgrade”
ALTERNATE-REALITY.NET —
Authority: 136
Smart.fm version (?) is out. It’s the first time I’ve experienced a maintenance time at least. The site has been restructured/ revamped. I’m not entirely sure why there was a need for those extra options really. I thought iKnow / Dictation and the Brainspeed game was enough. Now I can’t see how far I’m ...1 week ago -

My new Japanese stats
ALTERNATE-REALITY.NET —
Authority: 136
That’s quite some progress! Only I think I’m still too slow. What is it with Japanese and that every word sounds the same way. The lists I’m studying “Core 2000″ are very difficult after list 1 and 2. iKnow usually starts with Japanese -> English, which I remember way too quickly. Then when it’s ...2 weeks ago -
Obama has Become a Japanese Verb
The Moderate Voice —

The Japanese seem to really like President Obama. This goes beyond last year’s song from Obama City in Fukui Prefecture (it’s easiest to think of prefectures as being like states). Japanese youths are now using the President’s name as the verb “obamu” , which means “To ignore inexpedient and ...2 weeks ago -

I Understand (But Not Really)
Ikigai | Blogging the Martial Way —
Authority: 411
Sometimes the Japanese language seems endlessly complex to me, especially the writing of it. One word can mean 5 different things depending on your inflection and emphasis, not to mention what kind of kanji (or katakana) you use to write it. A perfect example is the term “karate”. Back in the really old ...3 weeks ago -

I’m in great luck that I had 100% on word recognition of JLPT3 and JLPT4 a month ago, so it helps speeding things up. Dictation is somewhat of a challenge because ...4 weeks ago -
