When I mean learning I do not mean translating big sentences or something like that, I mean things like: “Is this japanese sentence correctly written? 雲の日が好きです” In this example it answered: "

Yes, the Japanese sentence “雲の日が好きです” is correctly written. It translates to “I like cloudy days” in English. Here’s a breakdown of the sentence:

  • 雲 (くも/kumo): This means “cloud.”
  • の (no): This is a possessive particle that indicates the relationship between “cloud” and “day” in this context.
  • 日 (ひ/hi): This means “day.”
  • が (ga): This is a subject marker particle that marks “cloudy day” as the subject of the sentence.
  • 好きです (すきです/suki desu): This means “like” or “to like” and is a polite way of expressing one’s preference. The verb 好き (suki) means “to like,” and です (desu) is a polite copula used to indicate politeness and formality.

Therefore, the sentence “雲の日が好きです” correctly conveys the meaning “I like cloudy days” in Japanese.

Is this correct,do you consider it reliable?

Sometimes I also ask some questions like: "What function does ‘こと’ grammatically fulfill on this sentence? … "

    I don’t know about Japanese, but I did study rust (the programming language) with chatgpt and its really good for that, because you can keep asking questions and drilling down until you understand. (a human teacher might get tired) Only real problem I had was it kept forgetting the context. I didn’t really have problems with hallucination and even if i did I could just try the code, which will not work for Japanese.

      a big problem with it is that if you don’t know a subject well enough, you can’t know if the answer from ChatGPT is real or not. for programming, you can test it and with knowledge of other languages, you can get something done quickly. but for japanese i found that i can’t know if the answers are correct or not, so i decided against using it
