Reading, day 1.
The correct method: read children's fairy tales and simplified versions of the news.
My method: take something interesting in itself and struggle with every sentence.
Actually, I will definitely get to the first method, but today I decided to try to tackle some interesting-looking manga (and because I've been planning to read it for a long time) and got stuck for a long time because it turned out to have a rather elaborate language and from the very first pages it showered me with words and hieroglyphs that I had never dealt with before. But okay, let's see how it goes. The content is good. Oh yeah, if anyone has read this manga in translation, don't post it here, or it will ruin the process.
And the process is as follows: I retype the text from the pages and try to translate it, not literally but close in meaning, and I mark unfamiliar hieroglyphs in red.
人生のうちのある時を、姉とともに暮らした
I immediately encountered problems. The general meaning of the sentences is clear, but I cannot formulate the specific meaning of what I read. Once (in my life) I lived with my older sister. ??? I don't understand what it's about specifically, whether it's about the time when he started living with her, or directly about the period of life when they lived together.
彼女の優しい声が、Her gentle voice,
甘い髪の匂いが、The scent of her beautiful hair, Or "the sweet scent of her hair," I'm not sure.
柔らかな肌の温もりが。The warmth of her soft skin.
今でもありありと
思い出される。Even now, I remember it clearly.
彼女のと日々は、僕すべてになった。(She) became my every day. That is, she filled his whole life, became an integral part of it, etc. (Probably).
I really liked this excerpt, so I will write it in Latin so that even a simple reader can enjoy the beauty of the best language on the planet.
kanojo no yasashii koe ga,
amai kami no nioi ga,
yawaraka na hada no nukumori ga.
ima demo ariari to
Omoi da sareru.
kanojo no to hibi wa,
boku subete ni natta.
僕のお姉ちゃんは、悪魔だ。(My older sister is a demon).
It's getting late, so I'll stop here for now. I wipe the sweat from my forehead and hope that there will be more everyday dialogues ahead, otherwise I won't get far with my current level. It's a pity that primitive languages don't have normal ways to denote close relatives... So I'll have to add "older" etc. to indicate the meaning.
Given the amount of text, I think it's obvious that this reading method is not very effective, but I will try not to abandon this manga.
