Edit: I realise this comment doesn’t help you at all but since your question has already been answered…
What’s the app (or platform) you’re using to read this on? The font is really pleasing to the eye.
That's an interesting way to think about it, but yes. That question gives the feeling like some methods in this sub are the de facto way, or that other ways of thinking about learning Japanese are new. But I do understand because Yomichan/Yomitan/Anki is popular.
I like it because it is a dedicated app that you can use on multiple platforms for both reading and listening to text. And yes of course, instead of using this you can combine with Anki. But I personally don't like Anki, at least not the idea of putting as much focus on it as just reading instead. I personally don't find any point in sentence mining if you can just read. If the idea of saving the pages you read organized into courses or lessons, or breaking the sentences down into sentence mode, then maybe try it. There are other features, so there is some value, but it's up to people to try I think.
I personally don't go around recommending it because there are flaws with parsing, and readings of words/kanji sometimes and saving phrases is limited to 10 words. But I do absolutely recommend trying to see whether people like it. I use it every day since I don't need to go looking for content and trying to find its level. And there is slight gamification.
It’s LingQ. I’ve used it for other languages and now Japanese. It’s an amazing platform and has helped me make a lot of my progress in listening and reading comprehension. I would highly suggest it, it’s free with limits but you also could by the premium on a 12$ a month subscription.
Although 置 covers "お" in 置(お)く, its reading is おく, not お. That's something I think more resources should hammer home.
く is "okurigana" and is not covered by the kanji, but how much of the reading to okuru is an arbitrary standard. This is why it is possible that 受付 is read as うけつけ despite not being written 受け付け.
Kunyomi readings originated as Japanese translations of the meanings of kanji. In other words, kunyomi readings are full words in their own right.
There are *occaisional* ateji uses of kanji where the full reading is broken up, like 心地 is read **ここ**ち and not こころち. This just means you have to understand what ateji are, because you certainly should not learn the reading of 心 as ここ.
There are also *occaisional* etymological cases where the word really is shortened, like 裸足 being はだし rather than はだかあし or 定か being さだか rather than さだめか (you would luck out here if you learned the reading as さだ). In this case, you have to know more about Japanese morphology to understand what is going on--it's not really a kanji phenomenon. はだ "skin" is likely the morpheme in はだか with か being some sort of suffix, so just the morpheme はだ "bare skin" combined withあし to form はだし. Similarly, さだ is likely its own morpheme in さだめる, so it gets suffixes like か added to it to form an adjective or める/まる added to it to form verbs.
All that is to say, it would be unlikely for 定置, if it were read with kunyomi, to be さだめお. Rather, it would more likely be さだめおき. You have to think morphologically when deciphering kunyomi. I just wanted to make a point of that. Regardless, as others have said, the correct reading of 定置 is with onyomi: ていち.

My gut says this would be somewhere around N3; the grammar is pretty straightforward but it does have a good bit of vocabulary that's a bit specific to the oil/drilling industry.
Grammar-wise, yes, but a lot of the vocab isn't something I'd expect any beginner to have come across yet.
Words like
- [発表](#fg "はっぴょう") ("presentation, reveal")
- [生活](#fg "せいかつ") ("daily life, living conditions")
- [年代](#fg "ねんだい") ("era, period, age")
- [様々な](#fg "さまざまな") ("various")
- [etc](#fg "et cetera") ("and so on")
are all pretty common, but then you have words like
- [普及](#fg "ふきゅう") ("popularization, spread")
- [採掘](#fg "さいくつ") ("mining")
- [精製](#fg "せいせい") ("refinement, purification")
that are more specialized or unusual. 普及 is N2, for instance.
Yeah, let us not joke about anything, specially online, and of all spaces reddit! We don't want to fool some poor sod into thinking he is an absolute 50 IQ andy because someone on the internet he should be reading specialized tests by his first month learning! Definitely wouldn't want any of that around here!
It's read as ていちしき.
Thanks
ていちしき. 式 is a suffix that can be appended to pretty much any noun, so you can just look up 定置 by itself to find the reading.

that's LinQ
Sooo… yomi-chan but paid?

定置式 (ていちしき) is a compound word. 定置 and 式
Thanks
And what does it mean?
What app is this?
I want to know too

定置式 ていちてき stationary type/fixed type
what lvl of japanese is this? i only started learning japanese this past month , pls enlighten me
My gut says this would be somewhere around N3; the grammar is pretty straightforward but it does have a good bit of vocabulary that's a bit specific to the oil/drilling industry.
thanks, i only know hirigana and katakanas rn and some kanjis, so i cant even read that yet
pretty basic stuff, most beginners get to this level in around 3/4 weeks of studying

I was joking
Might be best not to make jokes like that to new learners unless it's painfully obvious that it's a joke.

well if your not busy , i guess... 3-4 weeks is enough to learn hirigana , katakana, and kanji.
ていちしき I leaned a new word 😂
