Date: March 20th, 2017 10:03 AM Author: cracking scarlet base Figure I can learn to read Japanese in 3/4 years and just do that and travel the world. Going to work everyday just seems like dying a slow death. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3558647&forum_id=2#32872329) |

Date: March 20th, 2017 10:08 AM Author: cracking scarlet base Once you learn to write Japanese the rest is easy. Met a bro a few years ago that does this. He works about 6 months out of the year and travels the world. There are remote doc review shit for those fluent in Japan that pay 100 per hour. I'd have no problem doing that from Starbucks 6 months per year so I could travel. 9-5 at Fed is killing me. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3558647&forum_id=2#32872362) |

|
Date: March 20th, 2017 10:40 AM Author: contagious bright tattoo Sorry but not going to happen for you. The average Japanese student learns and memorizes something like 15,000 Chinese characters. You can learn the basics to speak and hit on girls, but good luck in the business world if you can't read Chinese characters.

Date: March 20th, 2017 10:45 AM Author: cracking scarlet base I've seen it done before. I'm not trying to get into the business world. I only have to do doc review. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3558647&forum_id=2#32872638) |
|
Date: March 20th, 2017 10:58 AM Author: sapphire up-to-no-good locale 15,000 is off by an order of magnitude. not even scholars of ancient chinese would know that many. I would guess 10K is the max a human has ever known, and nos. 10001-15K are trivially minor variations OR not chinese at all (wasei kanji, khitan script, etc.) (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3558647&forum_id=2#32872703) |
|
Date: March 20th, 2017 11:05 AM Author: bateful orchid really tough guy 3000 is the modal amount and enough to read a newspaper article fluently
but that is still a lot when you also consider the weird ass Japanese grammar |
|
Date: March 20th, 2017 11:12 AM Author: contagious bright tattoo Again, you get the point. Japanese kids are exposed to and learn thousands of Chinese characters throughout the entirety of their schooling.
There is a shit-ton of Chinese characters used in professional fields like law, which even average Japanese natives have no idea the meaning of. |
|
Date: March 20th, 2017 11:27 AM Author: cracking scarlet base Again, its contract doc review. It's not rocket science. If you have an issue understanding you can ask people or research it. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3558647&forum_id=2#32872926) |
|
Date: March 20th, 2017 10:53 AM Author: pink ladyboy weed whacker kind of a fantasy bro
Japan is 180 and learning Japanese is a fun hobby but to do it at that level will take thousands of hours of memorization and a lot of those jobs go to second gen Japanese or people who grew up learning it
