    ok someone was being unnecessarily rude and I can't believe I had to explain myself lol anyways. I was accused that I sped up the video bcs I refused to translate the questions.
    1. I personally found that part boring. he just mumbled to himself. it'd be more interesting if he reads it out and answer with us. I need to keep the audience retention so I always omit parts that I think are boring. I just don't want a video to flop lol and I know lots of yall (me included) have low attention span.
    2. can't you see how small those text are? when the readability is limited, it just further discourages me. hope that explains.
    besides, I'm doing this for free?? why are you being so nit-picky omg. let me edit videos however I want.... anyway, I already blocked that user so you won't see that comment. I don't tolerate with entitled people on my platform so please be mindful before you click that send comment button.

      The moment I read your first sentence, I almost went whoosh to look for the comment.😂But I am glad to know that you have already blocked them! Honestly, I am grateful for your videos and that you sped up some parts. I never skip any part when I watch your videosーdespite the fact that I have low attention spanーbecause your videos have the perfect length and amount of content. Thank you for your hard work!🤍

      The thing that shocked me the most about N2 Listening compre is they asked you to listen between the lines. The info they're asking for wasn't spoken at all, but implied. I was like, sasuga JLPT, also preparing you for their 'kuuki yomemasuka?'

    • @Aupirit
      @Aupirit 2 місяці тому +2

      Yeah, in the N2/N3 (and I guess the N1 too) there are two types of questions where you need to take notes or you won't be able to answer. The last one is always two people talking about something where there are 4 choices between which to chose, and they go back and forth before choosing one. So if they are talking about university classes for example, they won't say " I choose to take outdoor art class" but they will say "I am more of a creative person, so and I like nature" so you need your notes to get that that meant the "art class".

    I think the worst I've seen a japanese perform at N1 is making one mistake. And that was on the full test, not a couple questions like TsudaKen here. Always funny to see them stress out because they think it'd be embarrassing to get one wrong.
    At least you apparently need only 100/180 to pass so not all is lost for us foreigners...
    Though most jobs only require N2 so if I were to try, I'd probably stop at that level tbh.

    BJT test is a much better measurement for Japanese proficiency than JLPT test. JLPT is a very flawed measurement, since the result is pass or fail. Someone can get a bare minimum scores on each section and pass JLPT with a broken Japanese but other with a very fluent Japanese could fail just because they are shorts 2 or 3 points on particular section. In the contrary, you don’t get pass or fail in BJT, instead you got assigned with different level of proficiency based on your test result, J5 is the lowest proficiency and J1+ is the highest proficiency. The contents of BJT is also much more industry and business focused, real life business setting study cases from many different fields. If you wanted to get a more practical measurement of your Japanese language skill and strive not only to be fluent in Japanese but also gaining native intuition for navigating the Japanese used by professionals in works setting, then BJT is the way to go.

    How can a veteran voice actor like him who has read through thousands of scripts struggle with the reading of '挑んで'? Do Japanese voice actors' scripts have furigana on it?

      probably because in the answers they had のぞんでいる which he thought would be a better fit in terms of vocab usage 😂 overthinking

      It would be troublesome if there's no furigana, not everyone is good at reading
