I'd recommend this guide if you want a handy mobile app for learning Japanese, it explains grammar and everything from a basic to advanced level. There should be an equivalent iPhone app under the same name as well.
One point to note is that the app doesn't cover contractions, short-forms and other modern casual spoken Japanese trends which some Hololive members tend to use, so even if you've obtained some basic proficiency you might still be easily confused like me heh.
In any case, Japanese is a really beautiful spoken language, so I highly recommend learning it!

I found this link on here https://itazuraneko.neocities.org/grammar/taekim.html
It's an app that contains a grammar guide, more like a better way to view their site.It's not a practice app, I probably said it in an unclear way earlier

So i have started learning japanese for quite a while now .. I learnt new words , new kanji new everything but I struggled with how to build a sentence with them simply because the apps I used didnt focus on grammar
Then I came across this
Tae Kim's guide to learning japanese!
Don't even let me get started about how good it is .. I'll just point out the main points in this app
•It's 100% free and Add free!
•Focuses strongly on grammar
•Excellent explainations in english
•New kanji words are displayed each lesson so U'll learn alot more kanji on your way!
•Very strong grammar foundation I noticed the results after using it for quite a while now
•After each lesson you get to practise with the new kanji and the grammar lesson to create actual phrases!
• Shows how to speak like the natives
For example without having to say
お元気ですか?
You can just say
元気?
The sentence is understood from the contex
• Teaches you to NOT rely on translations which can be not accurate sometimes
• very motivational
I highly highly reccomend it! I have no more words to describe how this was made to perfection , best of luck

Here's the link to the app

My former roommate knows some japanese. He attended a formal course but he recommended me https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alexisblaze.japanese_grammar and https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.mindtwisted.kanjistudy to get started. Watching subbed anime can help you with some intuition and pronounciation but there are likely far better resources for reading and listening online if you're willing to do the digging. I learned hiragana and some really basic stuff but further learning is put on hold until I graduate so I don't know more right now. I hope I helped, at least somewhat

Well, I'm not learning Japanese, but I found Duo's tips and notes to be quite detailed and useful for the languages I am studying. They bridged the guessing gap by explaining the objectives and finer points of each lesson without drowning me in theory.
If you're looking for something more like a free textbook, you should try Tae Kim's Learning Japanese. It has rave reviews.

I use Anki on my daily commute, and it's great for short sessions. I also read Yotsuba&!, but that's beyond your level for now. When I was a beginner I used to just read a textbook (but it was a bit of a hassle to haul around, that was back when I had a longer commute).
I liked Tae Kim's grammar guide, and read the android app version.
But most of the time, just Anki.

Is this it? https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alexisblaze.japanese_grammar
(I am (actively) trying to learn Japanese myself)
Btw. regarding the novels.. Just do what you please, if you're doing this to please many people, well, you will do so, but you'll need to do quite a lot before being recognised for having had achieved something.
Point being, don't translate for others, translate if it has a purpose for you yourself.
I mean, plspls keep on translating, I've just an hour ago read through all of what you've translated thus far, and I hope you'll keep on translating, but don't think for a moment that you're going to be rewarded by anyone for this in any way..
I have a feeling you'll get bored by it fast enough, unless it proves to be a valuable enough method of expanding your Japanese skill..
Edit: I'm going to buy a physical copy of the book if you recommend me to do so..

Yeah. Tae Kim's. That's the textbook I'm using, it's open source PDF is available to all, and even has an app
I self taught myself since last year. It's an extremely dry textbook especially at the initial start, but once you get past Basic Grammar, the language starts to loosen up for you.
As for learning kana, there are various apps that helps you memorise both hiragana and katakana. Although after some days of memorising, only after just jumping into learning grammar did I get most kana into familiarity and eventually, memory.

with Dr.Moku you can learn really fast Hira- & katakana. After that I recommend to get Human Japanese app for android. Dont know if it is also for iPhone or pc. Some people recommend Tae Kim's Learning Japanese for ardroid. Can't say for sure myself cause dont have studied that much lately.

Do you never come across English words you don't know, despite knowing English for years?
Try learning some! Here's a really comprehensive site, and of course, there's a subreddit for that.
You could also try an app like this one if you have android (it's an app version of the first link, but hasn't been updated for a few years. Obenkyo (obenkyo means study in japanese) is also a good app.

> A Japanese guide to learning Japanese grammar
> This guide is an attempt to systematically build up the grammatical structures that make up the Japanese language in a way that makes sense in Japanese. It may not be a practical tool for quickly learning immediately usable phrases such as for travel. However, it will logically create successive building blocks that will result in a solid grammatical foundation. For those of you who have learned Japanese from textbooks, you may see some big differences in how the material is ordered and presented. This is because this guide does not seek to forcibly create artificial ties between English and Japanese by presenting the material in a way that makes sense in English. Instead, examples with translations will show how ideas are expressed in Japanese resulting in simpler explanations that are easier to understand. In the beginning, the English translations for the examples will also be as literal as possible to convey the Japanese sense of the meaning. This will often result in grammatically incorrect translations in English. For example, the translations might not have a subject because Japanese does not require one. In addition, since the articles “the” and “a” do not exist in Japanese, the translations will not have them as well. And since Japanese does not distinguish between a future action and a general statement (such as “I will go to the store” vs. “I go to the store”), no distinction will necessarily be made in the translation. It is my hope that the explanation of the examples will convey an accurate sense of what the sentences actually mean in Japanese. Once the reader becomes familiar and comfortable thinking in Japanese, the translations will be less literal in order to make the sentences more readable and focused on the more advanced topics. Be aware that there are advantages and disadvantages to systematically building a grammatical foundation from the ground up. In Japanese, the most fundamental grammatical concepts are often the most difficult to truly understand. This means that the hardest part of the language will come first. Textbooks usually don’t take this approach; afraid that this will scare away or frustrate those interested in the language. Instead, they try to delay going deeply into the hardest conjugation rules with patchwork and gimmicks so that they can start teaching useful expressions right away. This is a fine approach for some, however; it can create more confusion and trouble along the way, much like building a house on a poor foundation. The hard parts must be covered no matter what. However, if you cover them in the beginning, the easier parts will be all that much easier because they’ll fit nicely on top of the foundation you have built. Japanese is syntactically much more consistent than English. If you learn the hardest conjugation rules, most of remaining grammar builds upon similar or identical rules. The only difficult part from there on is sorting out and remembering all the various possible expressions and combinations in order to use them in the correct situations.

It's kinda sad, yeah, but I guess that's to be expected at this point if the person doesn't know the language they're typing out. Though my personal opinion as a translator is that if you pick up a series to read, you should at least know the shorthand and the meaning of the title in your own language or in English.
Once you've read enough series, you notice you know already from the jp title to expect some things, eg.> tensei(転生) means you can expect reincarnation,
>isekai(異世界) means the premise is most likely that the mc is transported to another world,
>and mahou(魔法) means magic is most certainly involved.
If it it of any help, you could try making a meta post yourself to convey your feelings about people being inconsistent when referring to series, but I doubt much will change.
Also, regarding learning Japanese, I can tip you that learning hiragana and katakana is fairly easy, as they're just describing sounds as they are and nothing more. Grammar is one step further, but it's not too complicated. The only part I really expect anyone to have issues with while learning the language is kanji.
Here are some extensive free guides and resources for learning the language:
-
- IMABI website
- Tae Kim's Guide to Learning Japanese: The Website|Android|iOS
- JPLANG website
- Basic Japanese Cheat Sheet pdf

This is the mobile version of Tae Kim's Guide to Learning Japanese (recommended by our subreddit Starter's Guide)
https://itunes.apple.com/app/learning-japanese/id377785100
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.alexisblaze.japanese_grammar
I have the Android version, and while the information here is still valuable I must point out that it is DIFFERENT than the current guide on Tae Kim's website, so the app appears to be an older version of his website's guide.

The last 3 are my favorites, easier to learn when it's a game for me, but hopefully they'll be usefull to you. have several more, but I haven't messed with them much so I can't vouch for them. Lemmie know if there's anything else I can recommend. This might be good too, /r/LearnJapanese
Also, you use 4chan? I know there's a thread on jp with learning resources and junk
I'll hunt it down for you if you want
