I do like fun things, which is why I still do duolingo every so often even thought it's not actually that useful they try to make it a little fun. I never understood how poeple actually learned languages from watching shows I could never figure that out even back in school where they had movies that showed both languages as subtitiles next to each other I couldn't get it. I need like a kid sing along version where the words change color as they say it or something haha.
Same with me. I can pick few words up from TV/movies but usually i start with basic greetings and useful words like doctor, hotel and so on, then somehow it begins. Plus living in that country does help a lot. For me it does take time but the general every day greetings and learn their ABC are all helpful. Not sure there is a one fit all solution but dedication sure does come as a part. I just like the movies and comedy, and yes I do read subtitles, but USA humor is a mystery. Im convince most people dont understand or maybe think my humor is bit stupid, but there is the cultural problems. I also don't understand the USA humor most times but still its nice to watch sometimes.
Only bad thing I've found about DeepL is, it really doesn't seem to do so well with German >> English. When we were proofing Ep3 of Tragic Elf Life, the dev used DeepL to translate since we had no dedicated English translator. The results were horrendous; it literally made my brain hurt trying to make sense out of it. With Ch4 he went back to Google and had much, MUCH better luck. I actually got that one proofread in a day or two
hmm? strange. I dont know much about the translators, but maybe Google is better at some language. I just find Google is ok, but often can get things wrong. In Japanese translations Deeple is much better. It could be that Google is set more for western (Roman) based written text. im not sure. Seems some translation program are better with some language and not so good with others.
Yeah, I guess so. It wasn't common, but I do remember renting a Pokémon movie.
Usually anime were just TV. Few of them came to cinema back on the day, and even less to VHS/DVD. I still don't know why the Cowboy Bebop
movie had an official release here. Hahaha
Why though?
I think the most famous ones, like Pokémon, Dragon Ball, Digimon (which the only movie here/on USA was actually a Frankenstein of multiple japanese ones) did go to rental stores. But I don't think I chose them very much.
I am not sure I can stay inside for two days straight. I would need to go outside every day, but still, I try to be inside as much I can. I pop into LC when I can and enjoy what you guys write. Most is fun and funny.
It's not, like, my best moment, but living alone, you are just not motivated to leave the house. That's why I play Pokémon GO, at least for me to go to the corner in the street.
ChatGPT is easier to use, just like asking someone questions. I tried ask it to teach me japanese, it just wrote about the alphabets, few simples phrases, and a full phrase, breaking down each part of it. The first class of a Japanese 101.
If you don't have to "pay" for these hours, it is a great win!
Begging for money online is part of our religion, you cannot deny us that!

I understand and I been not motivated before many times, but then I now have family and my pets and my dog force me to be motivate to walk her, so, I just feel exercise is important, even for local area walk, but also usually stay a lot inside. Our weather is often weird. Too hot in summer. Too cold in winter lol.
