You explain things in such a simple, straightforward, yet very understandable way!
In terms of the last examples, the verb kiru can be also u-verb if it is "to cut" not to "wear"
I am in my 3rd year of japanese and I still struggle with this sadly. Thank you very much!
ジョーさんは日本語の三年生ですか。がんばってくださいね！
This was INSANELY helpful. Thank you so much for your videos!! You're wonderful!
You just saved my life. Thank you
This is the first thing that made me understand how to tell and I've been studying for almost 5 years now. Thank you
That's why it's better to call them "iru eru" verb.
Exactly
yesss i thought there was going to be something different but this the same as when we use iru and eru group
I assume that some people may not like that name because "iru" and "eru" cut across the morae by (usually) beginning halfway through a kana. But the actual grammatical rule also cuts across the morae, so ...
Yeah it makes more sense
This answered many of my questions!
本当にありがとうございました！
本当に、ありがとうございます、Yuko先生！Your videos help so much!
Thanks so much Yuko sensei! I finally understand the difference. You're awesome!

Thank you very much.
Thank you sensei
Wow amazing
My books and videos never say look at the vowel before the RU. I could never tell what exactly they were looking at, therefore nothing made sense, ekkk. Thank you so much for being clear and starting from the basics. Excellent video. Thank you
ありがとうございます！
Thanks, Miss 😁
Thank you!
wow! what a trick discovered by Yuko Sensei. Omedaeto Guzai masu!

Robert-san, thank you for watching and for your like! :)
Thank you so so so much ♥
thank you
I've been studying Japanese for five years...and you're telling me all I had to do was look at the VOWELS?!
Nice video sensee it helps
Wow! this clears up a great deal. Arigatou gozaimashita!
The explanation is very clear as most of the videos in your lessons. I have been syudying Japanese for 5 years years now and many a time I refer back to your enlightening videos.
Once question come to my mind tho'. Why is it so important to be able to distinguish between RU and U verbs I wonder? What is the underlying reason? Arigato gozaimasu!
It's so fascinating to me that universally a/o/u and i/e/y are different categories of vowels.
OMG YOU ARE FANTASTIC!! thank you so much!!
Interesting: we in Hungarian also group our vowels in these 2 groups, they are called low (a,o,u) and high vowels (e,i). Lots of other simiralities, too.
I love your lections, you do a great job🙏🏻❣️🙏🏻
Oh that's interesting! I never knew that!
ありがとう😭！
Very helpful . Any tricks to help with い and な adjectives ? Please 😢
ありがとうございました
For ru forms like かえふ just look the constant+vowel sound then the trick works.
Thank you so much yuko sensie 😭 you save my exam tomorrow 😍
Good luck with your exam! がんばってください。
Good
こんにちは、せんせい！ ありがとう ございます

Just a quick question on the group of the verb kiru. Two meanings , to cut / to wear . Will the definition of a verb be a basis for its grouping of whether this is an u verb or and iru/eru verb? on a different video this verb was cited as an exception( Group 1 ) but that example of kiru was specific to cut.
The first time I learned about verb, it's kinda difficult for me to remember this pattern. So I use "memorizing" way instead, by reading many, many, many, sentence in polite and casual, then I know what verb they are. 😂
Strangely, out of all the ways to describe these verrbs; iru/eru, ru and u, ichidan and godan, I find ichidan and godan easiest to remember for me.
I found another trick to identify them from a youtuber
Just remember "ru-verb" to "iru/eru- verb", this way you know that if a verb ends in anything other than iru/eru, it's an u-verb
But if it ends in iru/eru, it's most probably not an u-verb, and there's more ru-verbs that end with iru/eru than u-verbs that also end with iru/eru, so once you're used to Japanese language (either by practice of speaking or hearing, like hearing verbs in anime or songs etc) then unless the word is completely new to you, you'll be about to just guess by instinct if it's a ru-verb or u-verb.
どうも ありがとう ございます :)
Yoko Sensei, which font are your using for the Japanese text in your videos? It's so beautifully legible :)
Can you please make a list of the exceptions?
Yuko Sensei, for RU verbs if there is another vowel sound before -iru or -eru is that another hint that it’s NOT a RU verb?
GODAN and ICHIDAN verbs
GODAN verbs- change the u SYLLABLE to an I SYLLABLE and add masu
ICHIDAN verbs- verbs that end with iru or eru SYLLABLES. cut the ru and add masu
10 exceptions though....
There's also the いる (to need) which is an U-verb instead of a RU-verb (contrast to the other いる which *is* a RU-verb)
I follow Geroge Trombleys categorization: Regular (U-verbs) and Iru/Eru-verbs (RU-verbs). Verbs that rhyme with Iru/Eru follows the "drop the last RU"-rule. Otherwise, you change the last U-sound to the I-sound as normal. I think this is better since it creates fiewer exceptions like the U/RU-classification do.
Marcus-san, it sounds like a very good explanation. I have a question. How does he categorize verbs like "Hairu" "Sebiru" "Nigiru" "Kaeru" or "Hoteru"? Although they end in Iru and Eru, they belong to U-verbs (Regular). We have quite a few of them. Does he have a tip as to how to spot those exceptions in U-verb group? Then, please share with us here. I would love to apply his method as I know it's going to help my students!
Ooh. ...what a burn! i guess japanese do have sarcasm after all...
Japanese From Zero also does a pretty good job at explaining these verb types.
ありがとせんせい
Thank you so much, this made my head hurt until I found this video 😂😂😂
Wait, isn't KIRU (to cut) exception u verb? It's Te-form is KITTE and polite is KIRIMASU
Merさん, I think you are talking about 切る（きる）"cut." What I used in this lesson was 着る（きる）"put on (a thing covers your upper body or the entire body). These two verbs happen to share the same pronunciation in Plain Form. I'm sorry it's not clear when written in Hiragana only.
@@YukoSensei thank you for the explanation :)
@@merl6954 Don't you mean it's an exception 'ru' verb, not 'u' verb?
@@YukoSensei so that's why japanese people use kanji?
i know im asking the wrong place but does any of you know of a way to log back into an instagram account??
I was stupid lost my account password. I would appreciate any tricks you can give me
Is ます 形 (masu form) the formal and polite way of て形 (te form) , ない形 (nai form), and た形(ta form)?
Could you please also talk about自動詞 他動詞？
Arigatou
Love ,JAPAN
If i understand correctly 走る / はしる is also an exception?
Also i wanted to ask how is it the other way around - how do i get u/ru form for verbs that end with ります? I'm asking this because i came across the verb かぶります and i'm not sure if it should be かぶりる or かぶる, becaus if i understand correctly both かぶりる and かぶる (if these things are even words) should have the same ます form.
TauFrostさん、はい、そうです。Yes, you are correct. 走る is an exception too.
If you see ります in the masu form, most likely it is a う verb because for るverbs the ending る gets dropped and hence, it doesn't get converted to り as in ります.
たべ-る > たべ-ます
ね-る > ね-ます
おき-る > おき-ます
The only exceptions are those る verbs that have りる at the end. Then, you will see ります in the masu forms.
かり-る > かり-ます
たり-る > たり-ます
I hope this makes sense!
@@YukoSensei so when a word ends with ります i can assume that the base form ends with りる?
@@TauFrost はい😆
Thanks for clarifying it easily.
I have a doubt for the verb
"to run " it is hashirimasu
Plain form is hashiru
This is a group 1 verb . Here before "ru" i comes in. How is that?
Please clarify
Thanks.
it's an exception
Are they ichidan and godan groups?
Very good to understand! So I can seperate between the dark (U) and the bright (RU) vowels. Is this rule 100% right, if I ascribe the words with double vowel to the う U verb, in general?
Or if I ascribe the words with double vowel to る RU or う U verb depending on the previous vowel ...for example: kaeru belongs to the う U verb, because the first vowel behind the consonant K is A (dark vowel -> U verb).
I am not familiar with the term dark and bright vowels. But I can tell you that this rule has nothing to do with the vowel before the one proceeds RU. I used the verb KAERU 帰る "return" as an example in this lesson. However, there is another KAERU 変える "change" in the language, which is an RU.
in Germany and in roman languages the pronounciation of consonants changes depending on the previous vowel. When it is a dark vowel (a, o, u) its different from a bright vowel (e, i). I thought, there could be an analogie. =)
Ok, thank you for your answer!!
Ah, I see. I learned something new today. Thank you. :)
Salamat iddyay insursurom kanyak ta adu to naadal Ku kanyam and nakasuscribe akon
Regular or irregular verbs?
Correct me if I am wrong...
Here what I learn from your lesson is dividing "る“ and "う" verbs..that point you given for their identification was so easy to make it understand but when you did talk about exception, how I see that is the second identification for "う"verb.
1: when a,u,o comes after a consonant it is "う" verb .
2: when 2 vowels come together (it can be any vowels) it is "う"verbs.
I think it depends on the first vowel . If it's 1, 3 or 5 then it's u but if the first vowel is 2 or 4 it's a ru so it's not really an exception.
1 being あ 2 being い etc etc.
Thank you lot for this, but I'm still confused about the て form of verbs like する or しる. Because the former's て form is して、 and latter's is しって。That means that する is a *Ru* verb, and しる is an *U* verb but they don't follow the vowel rule.
Those you listed are exceptions to the rules.
