After nearly 6 years busting my ass on learning to read? All the elementary ones, hopefully most of the middle school ones

That’s a lot!

Is that just reading or reading and writing?

I studied through kumon but I think I wasted too much time trying to write those crazy ****ers. It was hopeless. I peaked at about 300. My brain was just like sorry dude that’s all if you want a new one and we’re forgetting an old one. With texting technology though even Japanese kids can’t write nearly as many by hand as they could 20-30 years ago. It’s sort of going the way of cursive and analog clock reading. With kanji if you can identify it you can insert the correct one into text without really being able to write it. I guess you know that. I’m just farting.

That’s called enjou kosai and was daijobu back in my day.

I can get by in conversational ASL and am well practiced in toddler Spanish but my grammar is not great. I did a couple of independent study semesters of pointed (biblical) Hebrew and Greek with my religion prof. but aside from the alphabets I've forgotten everything. I hope to be fluent in Spanish but i stopped practicing as much and have already regressed a lot.

Yeah it's hardly a passion unless I could interpret strictly hip hop shows. I learned it from having a deaf roommate.

It’s a good skill to have in your pocket.

It was a painful uphill climb, but now that I can parse a news article with very little trouble it was worth it

That’s pretty bad ass. How often do you know the meaning but not the “reading”? Like you know what the kanji means but not sure how to say it?

You ever watch Japanese and Chinese people communicate on paper only? Isn’t it true that Chinese only has one sound per character?

I used to work on the streets of Hudson County, NJ so speaking a bit of Spanish was a must or else I'd likely be flayed alive. When I was travelling, French was the only language that I had to actually try to speak because nobody knew English. I asked a dude if I needed to sign for a credit card purchase in Normandy and he looked at me like I was speaking Grognakstfariansith or some other made up combined alien language.
