Weekly discussion and small questions thread

In response to user feedback, this is a recurring thread for general discussion about learning Japanese, and for asking your questions about grammar, learning resources, and so on. Let’s come together and share our successes, what we’ve been reading or watching and chat about the ups and downs of Japanese learning.

The /r/Japanese rules (see [here](https://www.reddit.com/r/japanese/about/rules/)) still apply! Translation requests still belong in /r/translator and we ask that you be helpful and considerate of both your own level and the level of the person you’re responding to. If you have a question, please check the subreddit’s [frequently asked questions](https://www.reddit.com/r/japanese/?f=flair_name%3A%22FAQ%E3%83%BB%E3%82%88%E3%81%8F%E3%81%82%E3%82%8B%E8%B3%AA%E5%95%8F%22), but we won’t be as strict as usual on the rules here as we are for standalone threads.

  1. Is Youjin [漾人] a real name?

    Hello everyone, was doing some casual research about rare japanese names and stumbled upon the name 漾人 spelled “Youjin” in romaji. According to the publisher it means drifting person/nomad and I thought it sounded interesting, but as I was looking around the internet I couldn’t find any examples of a person with this exact name. The publisher asserted it was existing, but I’m not so sure now.

    Can anyone confirm if this name exists? Might want to use it for a fictional story lol.
