2025年日本語の勉強ゴール

Looking back at 2024, I’m around N3 for reading and listening. And because I know Chinese, I can guess the meaning of a lot of 漢字 (although I don’t know how to pronounce them).

But I’m still very weak with outputting (writing and speaking), maybe around N5-N4 level.

As I rarely study outside of my lessons (1 hour lesson per week), I’m not going to go with a plan that changes what I’m currently doing drastically. With aggressive plans, it’ll probably fail within a month.

So my 新年の抱負 (ほうふ) is:

Write one diary per week and no more than 3 entries if I’m really into it to not burn myself out.

週に一回日記を投稿するようにします。やる気があるときは最大 (さいだい) 3回までにして、燃え尽きない (もえつきない) ように気をつけます。

Half year check in!

Although I stopped posting my 日記 to tumblr, I’ve been doing once per week up until now (since I have Japanese class each week).

One thing I’d like to note is that I started using Migaku in May. I’ve studied more vocab than ever since I started using it and the streak is going strong!

It is the best tool for immersion IMO because all you need to do is just install the browser extension and you’re good to go.
