AJATT stands for **All Japanese All The Time**. It was created by [[Khatzumoto]] in 2006. It's a method of [[Japanese Learning|Learning Japanese]]. It's a way of becoming fluent by doing as much as possible in the target language, every day, i.e. "Immersion Learning". AJATT involves: * [[Input Hypothesis]] * Use of [[SRS]] * Learning Kanji via the [[JP1K]] method * Learning Sentances instead of isolated vocabulary * Use of [[TSC]] ## Immersion Environment An immersion environment means that media that I consume will start to be replaced with Native Japanese content, and this will happen daily, for multiple hours. 1. Immersion + [SRS](https://tatsumoto-ren.github.io/blog/spaced-repetition.html) = comprehension ability. 2. Immersion + comprehension ability = output ability. 3. Output ability + practice = output mastery. ### Active Immersion * I am actively trying to watch a movie, TV show, or read in Japanese. This is raw, no English translation. Can include Japanese subtitles. Avoid songs. ### Passive Immersion * This is passively listening to things I have actively immersed to in the background. Do not listen to white noise ## Output Output is the last step generally of AJATT, which prioritizes input over output. If you can't understand what you're saying, no point in speaking. Avoids bad habits that way. Generally only start speaking after a year. ### Resources https://tatsumoto-ren.github.io/blog/whats-ajatt.html
