    Small typo at 3:44! it should be N5 in the doodle on screen, not N3 T_T
    Also since I recorded this voiceover without any real script, i did forget to mention one important bit, which is that everyone learns at a different pace and has different situations that allows for varying bandwidth/time they can put into language learning, and I’m in *no way saying that 3 months is a timeline that will work universally*! Please go at your own pace 🤍

    Please remember that how fast you are able to learn a new language depends on various influences like your own mothertongue, which writing System you use/know, what cultures you are exposed to, if you were exposed to that new language before, if this language is very different or more similar than your own, if you had studied other languages before, personal skills such as the ability to memorize or pick up patterns, and and and...
    You don't need to be able to rush through and it doesn't make you dumb to be slower than others, because of all these influences and personal skills. Japanese is one of the hardest languages to learn, especially for most westerners. So enjoy your journey until you reach your goal! Every little step you take is already an improvement you've made!

      ​@@irisnomo I guess it's easier for Japanese folks to learn Chinese cuz we've similar characters. So for people who don't know Chinese characters yet, I recommend learning them, especially basic ones first. English letters express sounds, but Chinese characters represent their meanings, so once u master them, ur gonna get written language better. That's why I strongly believe learning them will make your language acqisition faster and more efficient. Also, I recommend a yt playlist named 'EverydayChinese' which I'm currently watching:) Sorry for my long reply...

      I started learning Japanese a couple of weeks ago. I'm using Duolingo, a book to learn common japanese words/phrases, and practicing hiragana as I go in a genkouyoushi. To me, it's easier to figure out how to write it if I have to write it larger, first. It is a lot to learn, but I am having a fun time with it.
      I never knew just how many characters Japanese has, and some of them look very similar, so sometimes I mess up, but I'm not getting discouraged!

    10+ years of studying. My advice to everybody is to enjoy learning regardless of speed. You’re going to have other priorities in life other than Japanese, so you’re gonna be in it for the long haul.
    I used to be in an intermediate conversation class with two 50+ year olds, and they had been learning since they were in their 20s. Now I just have private lessons with a native teacher but focusing on conversation.
    It’s been a slow process but from where I was 10+ years ago with speaking it, light years in comparison.

    This affects me a lot myself, but if you need to read this, DO NOT LET NUMBERS DISCOURAGE YOU FROM LEARNING!! Japanese is NOT easy for English speakers. Some people are able to learn faster than others. That's fine! Learn at your pace. If you have better things to do, or if you need to be productive, please let those things keep you busy. But if you want to learn Japanese, find a way to make that a hobby. Only you can do that!

    For anyone starting a language, the goal isn't to rush learning. Recognizing a word can happen quickly, but it takes a LONG time to practice producing the language. Nuance of a language and culture can't be fully understood in 3 months. These videos are encouraging, but notice the plug of products. What is the creator's goal in this? Also, a standardized test like the JLPT doesn't test for things like every day speaking and writing. Take all of these videos with a grain of salt.

    • @roxazaloah

      I don't think everyone would take that away after watching the video but I understand where you are coming from. It could be that the creator is sharing the tools they used to help in their studies, and I like new suggestions, as someone who is a couple of weeks into learning the language. But creators on youtube also probably want to grow their channel, and a good way is through sponsorships, so I don't see the harm in this.

      @@roxazaloah I agree 100% with him. These types of videos are abundant in a part of the language learning sphere, and not only in Japanese. They are fun to watch, but in the end they are more akin to movies. Unrealistic and made for entertainment.
      I have now spent soon to be fours years learning Japanese by myself, and I have spent a couple months in Mandarin Chinese and recently started French. My views on these types of videos drastically changed over time. At first I loved watching them, rather I was actively searching for them, maybe I had some inner desire to extract their “genius” and apply it to my own studies. Now I still somewhat enjoy them because they are entertaining, but they are far from motivating. I mean you wouldn’t watch a high school drama to focus up and motivate yourself on your school work. You watch it to just have fun.

    This is a super healthy attitude of learning languages. Not to be bogged down by not reaching "advanced" level and just learning to have fun. Not to be afraid of conversing and creating content in the language without "mastering it." Having learned Japanese active for several years and passively for over 25 years, I can read and listen quite well but I could barely speak.
    Well done. Keep it up! Looks like Madanrin next for you (logical progression from Kanji study)

    One note for the viewers so you won't get discouraged :
    🎯Her speaking skills in the video are clearly N3 and quite solid.
    🎯It takes two or three times faster for advanced Korean speakers to learn Japanese (they share similar grammar patterns and a truck load of vocab). A native Korean speaker can get fluent in Japanese in a year or two.
    So if you only know English, be kind to yourself and don't set to be as fluent in 3 months. Take it at your rythm and stay consistent. You'll get there.❤

    If I could make a couple suggestions to help those viewing your videos. Putting a list of the apps/programs/podcasts you use and/or mention in your videos in the description would be very helpful. Adding links to those things would be a further step in helping others access them easy (maybe suggestions for specific flash cards, etc. that you personally use). And of course you are doing this for your own channel so with the links to various apps have links to the videos you have done going over those resources to better help those wanting to learn AND help grow your channel.
    Keep up the great content and good luck on your own language journey.

      Hey! Hmmmm that’s a good question, i sometimes do get confused with words between languages, but i dont think I’ve ever really forgotten any bits because of learning another lang. If anything, i feel like sometimes it actually helps me learn better, for example when learning japanese with a base of korean, or arabic with a base of hindi, there are overlaps between these languages that help me create associations and links in my head to memorise better ^^

      I have never really commented on your videos though I have discovered your channel months ago, but since I finally did and I even got a reply from you, I want to say that your Korean and Japanese accents and pronunciation are super good! I'm obviously not a native speaker (I'm an Arabic native speaker btw), but I have been exposing myself to the Korean & Japanese languages and all I can say is that you definitely sound like a native in both languages. Wish I could one day sound like you do speaking Japanese. Thank you for inspiring. May you have a lovely day! 💜

    I loved the video! Your Japanese sounds great to me, but I'm only a beginner, so I wouldn't know if you made any mistakes. I hope to be able to speak as fluently as you one day.
    I have been learning Japanese on my own for nearly a year now. I did the JLPT n5 exam in July, but I still don't have the results. To be honest, I think I failed, because the listening went pretty badly! I'm not really that bothered though, and I have actually studied far harder AFTER the exam than leading up to it. Yes, I know, that's not what you're supposed to do!
    I'm now on chapter 16 of the Genki books (that's the fourth chapter of book II), and I'm doing a lot of kanji study with Wanikani. You didn't mention this app in your video, but I'm sure you've heard of it, as a lot of Japanese learners use it. I find the discipline of turning up every day for your reviews and doing a set number of lessons each day very fulfilling. It won't work for people who prefer a less structured approach, but for an aspie like me it's ideal!
    My plan is to take the n3 exam in a couple of years. I know, that's much slower than you, but there are several reasons why I am slow. Firstly, the amount of time I can allocate to Japanese study. I have a full time job, as well as a wife and three children, so I can't normally fit in more than 2 hours a day. That's including listening to stuff during my commutes and doing SRS reviews in toilet breaks, etc. Secondly, I am older than you (approaching 50), and I suspect my brain is not as supple as yours. It takes me ages to learn new kanji and I forget them a thousand times. I try not to get cross with myself, and I just accept it now. It's part of getting older. Thirdly, I'm not bothered by how long it takes to get fluent. I have no real professional need to learn Japanese, it's purely a hobby, as well as an intellectual challenge that will hopefully stive off dementia ;)
    Good luck with your journey, and congratulations for your achievements!

Language learning should be an enjoyable and rewarding experience 💖 Good luck with your studies

I used to depend on Google Translate, which didn't help me progress in learning the language. Now, I prefer Immersive Translate because it presents both languages side by side, allowing me to learn new words and phrases on my own rather than just skimming through poorly translated texts.
