Why Japanese is EASY

A lot of people want to study Japanese but think it’s too hard and that they will never succeed. That is really a myth, though. Here is why Japanese is actually easy.

1. All verbs are regular, there are only 2 exceptions 

If you know French, this must sound like a dream to you. In other languages [like French] there seem to be more irregular verbs than regular ones. Not in Japanese, though. There are 3 groups of verbs, the first 2 being regular and very easy to conjugate. The third group consists of only 2 irregular verbs!

2. Easy pronunciation 

Japanese doesn’t have any exceptionally hard to pronounce letters. Unlike Arabic, German or Finnish, Japanese should be quite easy to pronounce for English speakers. Also, Japanese isn’t a tonal language like Thai or Chinese. 

3. No genders, plural or articles

Anyone who studies a romance language [and many other languages that have that] knows how frustrating it can be when you use the wrong article or verb ending. In Japanese, it doesn’t even exist, so nothing to worry!

4. Grammar is easy!

That’s true. It’s just completely different from English, but that doesn’t make it hard. After a while, it will feel completely normal. The best part about the grammar is that you can build a whole sentence with just one word. For example, if you wanted to ask somebody in English if they did their homework, you’d say ‘did you do your homework?’ Kind of long, isn’t it? In Japanese, you can ask by using only the verb ‘to do, can, be able to’ - like this: ‘done?’ Also, spoken, you can drop many words if you don’t really need them, especially particles! So if you’re not sure what particle to use, chances are you can just easily leave it altogether without the sentence losing its meaning. It’s easy to build sentences that seem to end in ‘…’, but that’s completely normal in Japanese and everyone will understand.

5. Tons of resources

Sadly, there are some languages people don’t really care about or not a lot of people want to study/ are interested in. Japanese is not one of those languages. There are hundreds of books about Kanji alone! And so many courses for every level. Also, it doesn’t matter what you’re interested in - anime, manga, books, movies, game show, video games, dramas, music - it’s all out there and super easy to find, so you definitely will find something you can listen to or read to practice your skills.

6. Kanji/the writing systems are hard?

No. They aren’t. It’s just a huge workload, it takes time and effort, but they are not hard.

At first, having to learn 3 writing systems will seem exhausting. But believe me, later, when you start reading, you will be so glad! You can detect if a text has a lot of foreign words at one glance if it has a lot of Katakana, for example, and you could say a lot more on twitter because of the syllabaries!

So actually, the 3 systems put together makes everything easier to read!

So please, just start studying and go at your own pace, and have fun studying every day ⭐︎

Title: Good One’s Gonna Be Author: remmyme Artist: disterra Rating: Explicit Pairings: Dean/Cas Warnings: Professor Castiel, Hunter Dean, time zones what are time zones?, i hope you like italics, texting and phone conversations, developing relationship, phone sex, dorks in love, first meetings, Dean’s a sad sack as frickin always (but maybe Cas can help with that) Posting Date: 10/5/2017

Summary:  Castiel Novak receives a rather alarming text message from an unknown number, and what started as a simple misdial quickly turns into the greatest friendship Castiel has ever known. But Dean has many secrets, dangerous truths about the life he lives, and would like to tell Castiel exactly none of them. As the months pass and Dean’s time grows short, will he be able to keep his relationship with Castiel while also keeping him safe?

A (slightly) AU, (mostly) text-fic, S3 fix-it romance (of sorts).

“Dude!” Sam slams into the bathroom like there’s a wendigo on his ass, and Dean – who had only just managed to coax yet another temperamental no-tell motel shower to the perfect temperature and relax into the spray – has a very interesting and confused few seconds in which he instinctively, simultaneously tries to shield his junk, duck for cover, and dive for the nearest weapon.

Dean blinks hard, squinting against the water at the bottle of Garnier Fructis he finds himself wielding, textbook-perfect pinch grip and crouched low behind the shower curtain.

“What,” he says, loud over the hiss of the shower and the pounding in his chest, “the fuck.”

“Dude,” Sam repeats, voice alarmingly close on the other side of the curtain – and, seriously, what the fuck, Sam is breaking so many Winchester Rules of Motel Cohabitation right now – “are you weird pen pal text-buddies with Dr. Castiel James Novak?”

“`

06:33 PM  04/21/07 I think you broke my brother.

06:33 PM  04/21/07 Also, you’re talking to my brother??

06:34 PM  04/21/07 I am, yes. He seems to be familiar with my work.

06:34 PM  04/21/07 Uh, yeah, I heard. Sam is flipping his shit!

06:35 PM  04/21/07 You’re the God of gods, apparently?

06:36 PM  04/21/07 Don’t be ridiculous, Dean. A few publications and professional consultations hardly makes me the leading expert.

06:37 PM  04/21/07 That’s not what Sammy says!

06:39 PM  04/21/07 I must admit, I was surprised when he knew me by name from my academic credentials alone.

06:40 PM  04/21/07 You said he studied pre-law, correct? Is religion and mythology a personal interest of his?

06:41 PM  04/21/07 Kid’s a genius. Everything’s a personal interest, the nerd.

”`

06:42 PM  04/21/07 Dr. Novak, it’s such an honor.

06:43 PM  04/21/07 Sam, please, there’s no need for such formalities.

“`

06:43 PM  04/21/07 Fuck, is he still texting you?

”`

06:44 PM  04/21/07 Your research on the history of belief in the energy of the human soul is amazing.

“`

06:45 PM  04/21/07 Oh, Jesus. He just pulled out a frickin’ book.

”`

06:46 PM  04/21/07 So many culturally different and chronologically discrete belief systems, but the ritualistic parallelisms are insane! And all the lore backs you up, man. Magic, monsters, spirits, sacrifices; that power has to come from somewhere, right?

“`

06:46 PM  04/21/07 Dude, you wrote a BOOK?

”`

06:47 PM  04/21/07 If you don’t mind, can I get your opinion on a couple of things?

“`

06:48 PM  04/21/07 If he’s bugging you, Cas, just say the word.

”`

06:50 PM  04/21/07 Ugh, hold on a sec, Dean’s being an asshole.

art tips post

for all the artist following me

Have two sketchbooks: One for finished and high-quality art (stuff made with Prismacolor or Copic if you use that or art for your portfolio) and the other sketchbook for more messy doodles. This way you have a place to try new things and mess up as much as you need. When I only had one sketchbook I was scared to draw in it because I didn't want to mess it up

Do studies. I cant tell you how much I've improved just by doing studies of shoes, hands, noses, and all that. This works for when you have art block too since you’re not really making stuff up and just learning how real things work.

Learn from others. I’ve never taken a real art class because 1. I can’t afford it and 2. there’s no good art classes/programs at my school. I’ve been following several artists and learning from them over the years and they’ve helped me tremendously. Just please do not steal art because that is never okay.

Break down concepts. If you notice there’s something wrong with your piece then figure out why. You can’t get better if you leave mistakes and don't try to understand whats going on. If the color is weird figure out if the values look right or maybe its the saturation of the color.

Watch youtube tutorials. Here are some youtubers I think are pretty good art teaching all things art: Draw with Jazza |  DrawingWiffWaffles |  Proko |  Baylee Jae

Have an inspiration folder/blog. Sometimes you just need a collection of starry nights or a misty forest or even a French bakery. All of those things can help you get inspired to draw. It could even be completely unrelated to what you plan to draw.

There are no dumb ideas in the creative process. If you want to draw a lizard in a dress go for it! If you want to draw various pastries with faces do it! Don’t let the thought of it being too dumb stop you because if I’ve learned anything in my several years of drawing it’s that an idea can lead to another and another and another and you may get a really good idea just from doodling dumb things.

Here’s a few things that can get you started on drawing better:

Dynamic poses | Dynamic clothes | Dynamic figure drawing

COMPOSITION | PERSPECTIVE | CONSTRUCTION

Anatomy:

Legs

Arms

Hands

Heads

Body (Female) (Male

Color Theory

Improving your sketchbook

Most importantly, don’t give up! You may not immediately get notes or followers but it’s more important you get better than to have popularity. How do you think those popular artists got to where they are now? To be good you’ve got to work at it.
