Reading linguistics papers in Japanese is educational! ;-)
 
rintaun
rintaun
yeah, but I have to read so many of them =(

it definitely is good practice though, given that I'm going to be writing my thesis in a year ><
I still need to decide my research topic though

I often like to talk about "acceptability" instead of "grammaticality". I can say whether a sentence is acceptable to me without talking about it in terms of grammar

@snailboat that's a good idea. maybe I'll do that from now on.

That's one distinction Chomsky made that I like :-)

And even "for serious"

えええ
注）アダカテです
アダルトカテゴリー　知恵袋にはあるけど
yahoo answers には「アダルト・セクション」は無い？
18禁とか
ちなみにこの写真は｢ぶりの照り焼き｣だと思われます
ブリ、鰤

そおね、
行かない方がいい
「最高のおかず」でググると、半分以上がエロいページですねえ
意外です
もっと「ご飯のおかず」があると思ったのに

I didn't know おかず had that meaning until I looked it up a few minutes ago...

I'm going to tutor a Japanese girl math later this year/next year
 
ちょこれーと
ちょこれーと
おお！
がんばって
 
Flaw
Flaw
probably means I'll ask lots of math related questions here
 
ssb
ssb
here's how you do it
 
Flaw
Flaw
I should buy a math textbook
and learn how questions are asked in Japanese
 
ssb
ssb
3:51 PM
get a room, and when she comes for tutoring make her say Flaw先生に用があってきました。入ってもいいですか？ and then you say はい and then you quiz her on her 九九
 
ちょこれーと
ちょこれーと
日本語で教えるの？？
日本語の教科書？？
 
Flaw
Flaw
yup
 
ちょこれーと
ちょこれーと
おおお
 
Flaw
Flaw
although I'll probably end up using English haha
 
ssb
ssb
everything has a Japanese word
 
Flaw
Flaw
3:54 PM
but it would help me understand if she asks me questions in Japanese
 
ssb
ssb
so it's not just a matter of learning the right katakana english

中学生くらいの数学ならわかる
けど高校の数学は無理、基礎解析、代数幾何・・・
確率統計、全然分からないです
小学生は「つるかめ算」を教えないといけないんだよ
x,y を使ってはいけない！大人には逆に難しい
 
Flaw
Flaw
IGCSEの試験は中学くらいでしょう

GCSE?
イギリスのGCSEの問題は、日本の数学よりかなり優しいと思います
易しい*
 
Flaw
Flaw
いいえ、IGCSEです

4:00 PM
お？
どのくらい難しいか知らないです・・
 
Flaw
Flaw
what are topics within a subject called?
not in terms of what topic and subject means in language
I mean...
like 三角法 is a topic in 数学
 
ちょこれーと
ちょこれーと
単元？
かな・・
 
ssb
ssb
what are they even called in english
i just realized i don't know
topics?
 
Flaw
Flaw
I would use the word topics
 
ssb
ssb
branch!
branch of mathematics
branch of mathematics concerned with
～に関する数学の一分野
一分野
 
ちょこれーと

4:07 PM
あ、そうだ
ふんの
じゃなくて
ぶんや
 
ssb
ssb
数学の分野 seems like the safest way, yeah
 
Flaw
Flaw
so can I ask 試験に何の分野が出るか
 
ssb
ssb
maybe even just どんな質問
 
Flaw
Flaw
somehow I feel 単元 fits better here
 
ssb
ssb
isn't a tangen a unit in school though?
 
Flaw
Flaw
4:14 PM
because 試験 kind of creates the environment for 単元 to be there
 
ssb
ssb
like you have your unit 1 test
単元テスト
 
Flaw
Flaw
suddenly I have lots of questions haha
I've not used Japanese in a real setting before
do I use plain or polite form to instruct a student?
 
ssb
ssb
just start polite and go with the flow
 
Flaw
Flaw
what if parents are there, who's going to be lastnameさん ?
 
ssb
ssb
you can call the girl lastname san
and then say okaasan otousan maybe?
 
Flaw
Flaw
4:24 PM
I wonder if I'll end up learning more Japanese from her than she learns math from me
would you need Xさんのおかあさん ? Or is おかあさん fine on its own?
