He Got a Perfect Score On The JLPT N1 | Interview with Patrick

[@Oscario8]

Let me remind Japanese learners out there that N1 brings you to the proficiency level of a Japanese junior high school student in his last year. You can get it too !!

[@EpicRebelz]

Except for accent, listening ability and probably everything actually except maybe kanji knowledge. You can't match a native's 12 years 24/7 experience with a language with a couple years of study/immersion that allow you to pass a test with some arbitrarily determined, required knowledge.

[@Oscario8]

@@EpicRebelz Of course proficiency within the realm of what is actually measured by the JLPT. My point is that the JLPT N1 is far from the unattainable test as it's sometimes pictures in the foreign community.

[@jf8050]

People use on average 7,000 words a day and hear 20,000 to 30,000 a words a day. So Japanese junior high school students are effectively spending 16 hours a day studying Japanese.

[@jf8050]

​@@Oscario8I recently gave a medium length reading passage and the questions and choices to three Japanese adults and they got every one wrong.

[@jf8050]

It would have been helpful if you guys asked him some pointers for the JLPT.

[@Ryyza7]

I wish we can have every guest you invite for interview to give final advice like you did with kaiwa

[@lukidjano]

I like how he's kind and not an arrogant asshole

[@porekun]

[@korumu]

Yes

[@kanadajin-r5b]

I think Patrick is the first AJATTer Matt interviewed.

[@KoreKaraPodcast]

Yeah, that was when I first heard his story! I think the interview isn't up anymore unfortunately

[@korumu]

@@KoreKaraPodcast I have it all backed up though :)

Raza kinda looks like armie hammer lowkey 😳

[@kanadajin-r5b]

Every once in a while, you should tell the audience to smash the いいね! バトン.

[@georgl.8440]

[@kanadajin-r5b]

@@georgl.8440 True. My listening is not as good as I wish it was sometimes.

[@georgl.8440]

@@kanadajin-r5b well I get it since バトン sounds closer to the english "button"

[@KoreKaraPodcast]

we should just have it sporadically throughout the podcast

[@DirtyDan666]

this shocked me.

[@KoreKaraPodcast]

Glad to know we are moving in the right direction with each podcast

[@jf8050]

Whats an ajetter?

👍

[@bobfranklin2572]

How does bro have all this damn time every day

[@Ryyza7]

i think it is unfair for him to say n1 is easy when he studied for 10 years lol. not everyone have 10 years to get n2-n1. people who study for university usually have around 2-3 years to prepare for n2. it is passable , but certainly not easy as you have to cram with other subjects too (if you take course like engineering)

[@user-fm8fr3mf1o]

That's not his problem though. He studied 10 years and it was easy for him, that's all.

[@nigelcarruthers335]

ショッキング!

[@KoreKaraPodcast]

グッドです

[@TheBillaro]

It's just like, OMG, like, Im like learning, JapaNESEEE. i was like, omg.

Learn your 品格　　"I guess I'm pretty 上手" is so far out of acceptable speech for Japanese, it is shocking.

[@nigelc.7818]

Yeah I was shocked when I heard that too. So unnatural.
