Nani mo Wakaranai - Vol. 1 Ch. 4 - Communication

How does he know that five hours have elapsed?

He knows time, and he doesn't need to use bathroom or eat, we don't know if he's sleeping either, and he can't get injured apparently.

This is probably why most isekais skip the language barrier entirely… While it makes sense, it just isn’t that fun to spend time fumbling with words and stuff while you can just go ahead to cover a more interesting part of world-building or actions.

Love the art style

I hope he can communicate or she will realize it's quite tortuous to leave someone down there alone in a strange place like that. I think it could be good for bonding and cuteness.

For me and the other nerds, fumbling with words and stuff is one of the most interesting things imaginable

Oh-keh
I at least know yes and no now in Mi yamu tuu's language
I wonder how the writing system works. the Na ni ne look similar with the curves wilst T sound are quite straight

I'm having a lot of fun contemplating what they're going to do next. Have they already learned each over's alphabets? Because if they have, then they could at least take notes on what the other person is saying and ask about it later, since it seems hard for them to even repeat what the other person is saying. For things that can't be demonstrated with a drawing, charades would be helpful, and I'd prioritize establishing words like, "again" or "slower" through charades. I have no idea how they established the word for "not", because in order to indicate that a thing is not something, you'd have to establish the something that the thing is not.

if they managed to estabilish Ryu and Myaa are their names, some basic form of negation is probably one of the first things that they'd do, because it's so useful.
MC can just point at himself, say Ryu, then point at Myaa and things around them, say not Ryu. Point at Myaa, say Myaa, point at himself and things around, say not Myaa. Should be pretty obvious to anyone that is familiar with the concept of negation.
Same method could be used later on for example to differentiate fruit and meat from the whole "food" category,
And you absolutely need it because you can use it to explain other more abstract things that you can't directly point at (dark = not light, night = not light sky/not sun sky, poisonous/spoiled = not food)
