A ri ga to u

this is the best explanation of all of it. baller.

Hello. Thanks for yet another good video. In a past video, you slightly touched upon pitch accent with numbers and counters. This gets complicated as the pitch vacillates with the numbers, sometimes depending on the variation in pronunciation of the "measure/counter" word. For three "さん", it ends high, correct? If so, is it always the case that when counting numbers, "1,2,3,etc.", the pitch is an "atamadaka" pattern for the beginning low numbers? Below in brackets is what I copied and pasted. I await your expertise on this matter. Thank you. [When you count, it goes いち1 にぃ1 さん1 しぃ1 …　じゅう1 じゅういち3, じゅうに03, じゅうさん3, じゅうし03, じゅうご1, じゅうろく, じゅうしち04 or じゅうしち3,　じゅうはち043 , 19 and 20 are as above.]

ありがとうおざいます先生 I really enjoyed this video. It was me who requested this コナン phrase. Is there any reason why コナン says it a different way than what is usually said?

That's a very difficult topic, ありがとうございます🙏

例文は面白いですね　笑

Is it just me or does 'hitotsu' sound different every time I hear it? ;)

Your videos have helped me even more than in-person language classes to "hear" pitch accent more clearly. Your teaching is not only very helpful, but also very entertaining. Thank you, sensei!

I have clicked to figure out what this Japanese pitch accent was about, i am know peculiarly curious about that one English accent of yours. I dont mean to be rude or let you think anything is wrong with that matter, but, it sounds so different that i am now more curious about that. though, i guess i am late now. Thanks for the explanation, it helps me answering some questions i was having while practicing and listening.

Thank you so much for the content 🙏🏾

love the role play haha

可愛くて怖い 怖くて可愛い 🤔

すごいおしえかたですね! おもしろくて接待に楽しいです!

ありがとう先生❤

Thank you much!

4:49 start

Another educational banger As always

You are so entertaining and charming!

WHAT ABOUT TSU WITH TENG TENG

May I ask, are pitch accent rules different in songs compared to speech?

The unsung pitch accent hero

I think "rude" is relative and subjective here... as she has mentioned, people definitely use every one of these phrases, and in more casual settings, the "rude" way is still used *very* often... even the other examples she gave are not all 100% substitutes that should be used in every case, they all have their appropriate time and place that it should be used, so I feel it's a bit disingenuous to just flat out call any of them rude when they are all used all the time, but in different situations.

No matter how hard or long it will take, my goal was to have near native pronunciation

Thanks for explaining this so well!

Hello. For nouns with flat style, when you add です, the pitch should drop after で, as in 学生です. However, provided nothing comes after です(like a final particle, よ　or ね), then I have heard that many keep the flat style (no drop at all). Also, for verbs with -ます (nothing coming after nor any conjugated forms), the drop occurs after ま。Again, some keep it flat with no drop. If this is the case, then when did this change occur? Is it now an acceptable, alternate pitch accent pronunciation? Thank you.

You must work so hard on these videos, they're always so informative and entertaining! Thank you!

すみませんですが"ど\うぞ"を知りました. でも,時々だれか言った"ど/うぞ"を聞きました.どうしてですか？どうもすみません

I appreciate that you remind us not to worry too much. Learning Japanese is a journey, and we should enjoy every step. Thank you, sensei!

Anything from azumanga daioh please!!!

Thank you. Maybe words with 3 or more mora behave like compound nouns when an honorific prefix is added. Example: はるやすみ...LHHLL.

こめ＼　　　　　　　　ＬＨ（Ｌ）　　　　　　　米 ⇨　おこめ　　　　　　ＬＨＨ（Ｈ）　　　　　　お米 しお＼　　　　　　　　ＬＨ（Ｌ）　　　　　　　塩 ⇨　おし＼お　　　　　ＬＨＬ　　　　　　　　　お塩 そ＼ば　　　　　　　　ＨＬ　　　　　　　　　　そば ⇨　おそ＼ば　　　　　ＬＨＬ　　　　　　　　　おそば そばや　　　　　　　　L H L おそばや　　　　　　 ? L H H L or.. L H L L Hello, again. The pitch accent when attaching お　or 　ご　to a noun is not always straight forward. Up above . for example, odaka words can become either heiban or nakadaka. How could one know which one to choose? Also, what would be the correct pitch accent for おそばや listed above? This is yet further proof that mastery of pitch accent is complicated. Maybe you will have a video on this in the future, pitch accent patterns following the (honorific) prefixes お, ご, and less common み. Thanks again for your deep insight on this subject matter. Have a great weekend.

The Disastrous Life of Saiki-K, Season 1 Episode 1, about 20:24: "やれやれ”. He says that a few times in that episode, and in every other episode 😂

Could you please provide me with the Japanese phrases from anime available on Netflix along with their timestamps? Without the timestamps, I won't be able to check the phrases in context. Just having the titles and phrases won't be helpful. Thank you.(AI helped me write this comment 😅)

My favorite anime is Nichijou! And it is hard to pick just one phrase... Maybe the dialogue between Sasahara-kun and Sakurai-sensei in episode 4, somewhere between minutes 3 and 4? 「日々 私たちが過ごしている 日常というのは実は奇跡の連続なのかもしれん いわばそういうものかもしれんな」

Please do Karakaii no Jouzu Takagi-san, it's a great anime that uses simple grammar and easy to understand

Great idea!

including, how to pronounce "dungeon meshi" ?Do you have a video about pitch accent in how to pronopunce titles? even the word "anime" or "manga"

dungeon meshi

Dungeon Meshi!

I like "Nani, kansei drifto" expression of Initual D first stage.

I'd love any phrases from Joseph Joestar's (Jojo's Bizarre Adventure) and especially one of his "your next line is..".

Beautiful neko! What a fun idea! I would love any phrases from One Piece or Haikyu or Ranma 1/2. They are my personal favorites.

do you know of a japan comic skit who makes fun of accents? Example in Saturday Night Live ; they do "The Californians".. I used to watch many o warai's in Japan typically stuff like とんねるず and めちゃ²イケ...

Can you make a video about counting accents? I always heard the difference between them "十三"や"十四"や"十五"や"四十"や"五十"... "一時"や"一時間"..."九円"や"十円"...but didn't know the rules about their accents. I have not seen anyone working on the accent of counting even though it is used a lot in everyday life. especially counting money. Thanks a lot.

What a funny lady ☺

i have a wonder what different between か and が

Thank you, again, I hope you will soon have a video on the pitch accent of -NA adjectives. Enjoy the week.

Once again, a great video. You are doing a great service by tackling pitch accent following suffixes/particles/tag words, and the like. The topic is quite complex, and it validates the fact that mastery of Japanese pitch accent is much more intricate than the rules of pronunciation in Chinese and Korean, even though there are indeed some difficult aspects in these languages as well. On another note, how do -NA adjectives operate under pitch accent? Compare 大きい　vs. 大きな whereby the latter form with -NA is atamadaka style (retracting pitch accent) when compared to 大きい which has kifuku style (nakadaka).

I was going to begin giving you some slightly more natural english at around 7:20 but I'm realizing it's very complicated to explain. I'm going to try anyway 7:22 "she has a great way of singing" sounds natural. some alternatives that I think are also natural is "her way of singing is great", changing the subject from the girl to the singing, and "The way she sings is great", taking notice that if you were watching footage of a dead singer you'd change that structure to "the way she sang was great" 7:28 "The way of singing is really great" Sounds unnatural. I think natives will tend to use a possessive for 'way of' so "her way of speaking", "his way of writing", "their way of working", "it's way of breaking" etc.. 7:34 "it's a great way of singing" sounds unnatural. The natural structure will be "It's a great way to sing". the verb tends to become infinitive when we're talking about a general usage of the verb instead of a specific person or object. examples: "That's no way to live", "I read this article online. It's about different ways to cook a steak" sometimes the alternative structure still sounds natural though. "We've got a food diary on our fridge. It's a great way of making sure we stay honest about our diet." "We've got a food diary on our fridge. It's a great way to make sure we stay honest about our diet." these both sound totally natural. I don't know how to explain when it doesn't other than speaking the language for my whole life :( sorry 7:43 "You have a funny way of dancing" I didn't think this sounded too unnatural until I showed my mom and she pointed out some ways most people would say it. We think the most natural options are "the way you dance is funny" and even just "you dance funny" << some words just somehow get away with breaking english rules. you shouldn't use an adjective directly after a verb like this so the "real" english is "you dance funnily" but sounds completely unnatural. I think some dictionaries consider funny an adverb anyway, albeit informally. 8:14 "The way of speaking proves it's a fraud" is unnatural. once again I want to give 'the way' to some person or object. "Her way of speaking", "The way she speaks", I hope that makes sense. I think in english we just tend to demand that an entity remains visible in the sentence at almost every moment even when context keeps it obvious. I see the cult leader on screen, we're talking about her, and even then the sentence "The way of speaking proves it's a fraud" makes my subconscious english brain go "Whose way of speaking? We should clarify in the sentence structure that we're talking about 'her way'". I hope any of my ramblings proved at all useful and I want to clarify that your english is completely grammatically correct if only unnatural at times.

Thank you again! This was helpful! お疲れ様です！✨👏✨👏✨👏
