I am Japanese. I believe that a lot of Japanese slang consists of reactions that focus solely on the difference between what the other person is trying to express and the response they anticipate from you. There's a sense of joy and amusement in responding with only this differential, rather than giving the full answer the other person wants or expects, as it conveys a feeling of shared understanding and connection.
Hey Alice, I noticed you felt kinda nervous talking about the slangs, but the way you spoke was so natural and spontaneous the video was fun and very cute! Loved the video and I (and everyone else) would love if you'd make more videos teaching japanese for us learners :D
Oi Alise, I'm learning Japanese now and I'll tell you that you are an absolute life saviour when you make these Japanese videos. I can both relax and learn at the same time. Absolute genius.
I love your videos 😍 so relaxing それな isn’t really the term someone could use ironically in my opinion, it’s just a word you use when you agree with something the other person just said
That was great fun. My grandpa came to America in 1905. My aunts eventually went to Japan to visit extended family. They were told that their Japanese sounded like people's grandparents. Their version of Japanese had "frozen in time"🤔
I love these language videos sm!! Even if u don’t feel like know how to explain everything i feel like u get the points across well. I’ve tried to explain ね and よ to ppl who don’t study japanese and it feels so weird lol
Gosh I love these Japanese/language based videos so much, but I’m such a language nerd I find myself getting way to interested and forgetting to relax lol
I feel like キモい is used for similar cases as describing something as cringe/creepy in english nowadays. I could be wrong, but ダラダラ seems like maybe it stems from クダラナイ? Also maybe しょう in しょうがない just comes from する or しよう so just literally translating to "there's nothing to do (about the scenario)" Im pretty sure ウイ comes from ウイすwhich is a kinda ギャル variation of オッス which is a shortened お疲れ Its really fun seeing how many stages japanese slang goes through to shorten things like the progression of Japanese "lol" from 笑ってる to 笑 to www to 草
Hi,I'm japanese. If my English is bad, I apologize. As you said, しょう in しょうがない actually comes from しよう but, だらだら comes from たらたら. だらだら is a way of saying "たらたら" in a stronger way.
@@Mt-BNNAs a Japanese, I feel like Japanese is really deep. We do have lots of expressions that English does not have. So “理解” is like “understanding “ and “了解” is more like “I got it” so it’s kinda similar but totally different in the specific situations. Is that makes sense? And sorry for my English, it’s not my first language. I just wanted to try to tell you the difference.
I love this video! It feels like my bestie is teaching me some japanese on a video call with her roommate sleeping in the same room or something haha Feels really comforting!
In Portuguese 嘘 is translated as (mentira) lie and we also use "lie" (mentira) as a word for "no way". I'm learning Japanese and I've being seen how hard it is to English speakers to learn and so easier to Brazilians. Japanese to me is like Portuguese without some sounds (like la, le, li, lo, lu) and using another words and alphabet. But the sound, how to use words is so similar that I never questioned about "uso" (嘘). When I was learning English it was a shock learn that in English "lie" and "no way" is 2 words 😂
And to anyone interested in how japanese to me is easy... Aside for the Brazilian Portuguese accent sound so similar. In Portuguese whe have 11 verb tenses Some tenses I don't know how to translate to English But the verd to study in Portuguese is "Estudar" and has these 11 conjurations: 1 - estudo 2 - estudava 3 - estudei 4 - estudara 5 - estudarei 6 - estudaria 7 - estude 8 - estudasse 9 - estudar 10 - estuda 11 - estudes And is like that to everything 😂
22:42 I find it quite scary how much of these words alise is trying to teach us, and how much of them i already know, purely from watching anime 😂 Now Im gaining context for these words I slightly know and how to use them appropriately
when you started talking about sugoi i immediately said suge kanzen ni bareta nda i dont know where i got my slang since i just watch anime, but i also say "shanai" and "shane" like how wakaranai has wakanai oh the shane is probably another suge situation isnt it for kekko i find myself switching between kekko and nakanaka, because i use both of them to say "its pretty cool/etc." and also to say "often" like if i say "kekko warui desu ne" i feel like that means "youre often quite unruly arent you" just by adding the desu, the ne i dont think does much if i say kekko warui ne it still leans more towards the "its pretty bad" definition, but the desu really changes what i feel it means for mata ne i switch between that and ja ne, ja i think means like "then" i also switch the ne with na for some reason i dont know why the we ive heard that one but not just we im pretty sure this is the same thing "wesu" its like chisu which i think is like gyaru slang also im not sure if this is slang or dialect but in my mind palace theres this part that adds s to words that end with n, like "sonanska?" which originally is "sonano desu ka?" this might be in the same category as chisu im not sure where i got sonano or how to spell it in romaji but the definition is like "something like that" so if i say "sonano iu demo..." (even if you say that...) the sonano acts as a way to say that its everything that is similar to the subject in question so i figured out the romaji, its son'na no also i figured it out i dont think its gyaru slang its just that gyarus tend to use it probably, it replaces the desu with ssu so like mada desu ka becomes madassu ka the only slang i didnt know were ri (probably because i only know japanese verbally) and emoi
i hear soudana quite ofthen used, well just by one person that is. hes in his 40s i guess and also a non native speaker. he never gets weird looks using it
Years ago when I first started listening to ASMR there was a creator called Dreamerwhispers. She never got really big and stopped after only a few videos but I really enjoyed a couple of her soft spoken rambles. For some reason, your voice really reminds me of her. Check it out, especially the video "Softly speaking about recent happenings".
idk why but you remind me so much of Dakota Johnson (which is obviously meant as a compliment ☺️) I guess it’s the way you talk and your facial expressions :)) I loved the video btw, I’ve always wanted to learn Japanese :)
Japanese doesn't really have "swears." More like, impolite grammar. And the harsher you say a rude sounding phrase, the more explicit it sounds. Translating Japanese insults into actual swear words takes some creative liberty.
I kind of know how she feels when she knows what something means or how to use a certain phrase in japanese but can't translate it to english. I've had so many english lessons at school where I'll say a phrase or word and then the teacher asks me to explain it in dutch and I just can't because to me it just makes sense that that specific word or phrase is used that way but I don't know how to explain that in dutch because it's not the same. I'm very bad at explaining things XD
Where do I start learning Japanese? Not from anime or movies, but a good beginner place to start. I have heard Duolingo and other language apps are bad

This is so good! Also, the "naa" ( 4:27 ) intonation represents a tag question, I believe.
Currently studying Japanese, so this is fantastic

「り」というスラングは、「理解（りかい）」ではなく「了解（りょうかい）」の略だと思います!
自分は日本人ですが、Aliseさんが日本語を話してくれてうれしいです!
what funny is that google translates both 理解（りかい） and 了解（りょうかい） as "understanding"
ガチでそれな。りはりょから派生したようなもんだからなぁ。元のりょは了解のりょなんよな。

22:42 I find it quite scary how much of these words alise is trying to teach us, and how much of them i already know, purely from watching anime 😂
Now Im gaining context for these words I slightly know and how to use them appropriately
I just wanted to thank you for your beautiful content. You are a wonderful person. You really help a lot of people with it.❤
Hey hey Elise! So excited for this!!❤
冒頭でもおっしゃってましたが、関西弁と言われる方言やイントネーションの特徴が多いですね。
何気なく使っている言葉を深く考える機会になりました。
Hey, Alise. I love your videos, have you thought about uploading some of them to spotify? I think they would fit quite comfortably.
My translation for shoganai would be "Welp."
38:33 So that's why Angelo replies "Ui" to Koichi's "Yo Angelo".
when you started talking about sugoi i immediately said suge
kanzen ni bareta nda
i dont know where i got my slang since i just watch anime, but i also say "shanai" and "shane" like how wakaranai has wakanai
oh the shane is probably another suge situation isnt it
for kekko i find myself switching between kekko and nakanaka, because i use both of them to say "its pretty cool/etc." and also to say "often" like if i say "kekko warui desu ne" i feel like that means "youre often quite unruly arent you" just by adding the desu, the ne i dont think does much if i say kekko warui ne it still leans more towards the "its pretty bad" definition, but the desu really changes what i feel it means
for mata ne i switch between that and ja ne, ja i think means like "then"
i also switch the ne with na for some reason i dont know why
the we ive heard that one but not just we im pretty sure this is the same thing "wesu" its like chisu which i think is like gyaru slang
also im not sure if this is slang or dialect but in my mind palace theres this part that adds s to words that end with n, like "sonanska?" which originally is "sonano desu ka?"
this might be in the same category as chisu
im not sure where i got sonano or how to spell it in romaji but the definition is like "something like that" so if i say "sonano iu demo..." (even if you say that...) the sonano acts as a way to say that its everything that is similar to the subject in question
so i figured out the romaji, its son'na no
also i figured it out i dont think its gyaru slang its just that gyarus tend to use it probably, it replaces the desu with ssu so like mada desu ka becomes madassu ka
the only slang i didnt know were ri (probably because i only know japanese verbally) and emoi
Currently living in Korea and speaking Korean but I’ll travel to Japan soon so this is fun!

Japanese sounds so interesting!
I was just hoping that you had a new video out while getting into bed. 🥳
The "UI" pronouncation sounds a lot like the Dutch "Oei" which translates to "Oops"
Could you do a japanese insults video? Maybe not swear words because youtube gets funny about that, but more like lighthearted stuff 😅
Japanese doesn't really have "swears." More like, impolite grammar. And the harsher you say a rude sounding phrase, the more explicit it sounds. Translating Japanese insults into actual swear words takes some creative liberty.
日本人より日本語詳しい

you're so pretty
Hi Alise, great video, very fun and interesting!
How did you learn japanese and how much time it took you speak and read it?
I kind of know how she feels when she knows what something means or how to use a certain phrase in japanese but can't translate it to english. I've had so many english lessons at school where I'll say a phrase or word and then the teacher asks me to explain it in dutch and I just can't because to me it just makes sense that that specific word or phrase is used that way but I don't know how to explain that in dutch because it's not the same.
I'm very bad at explaining things XD
I was in Japan in February for two weeks and I reckon you'd be pretty fluent after a few months living there. I knew enough to survive clearly.
"なんか"is like well , hmm...
Are you in Japan? I'm here teaching English, it's a blast (especially being in a remote area) but your videos help me sleep lol.
Where do I start learning Japanese? Like not from anime or movies, like a good beginner place
I can't wait to spring some Japanese slang on my coworkers.
So pretty ❤
テンキューお嬢さん
Ok but next do Japanese N3-N2 Vocab, that would be so funny like a funny prank lmao
Me a grown man learning Japanese slang knowing damn well I will never use this because I can’t sleep lol
