I got so much flack for filming in a store (even though I got permission) and I’m so happy at least one person said something kind. You made my night!! I mean.. I’m not going to buy 100 textbooks I don’t need, but I will sit down in a library for hours to figure it out for y’all!
here's a few ideas for how to learn Japanese Decide exactly why you want to learn it Try to speak japanese everyday Decide which method works for you best. (I read about these and more on Fergs Magic Blueprint site )
I agree , since I also see people suggest genki all the time or minna no nihongo . I checked out genki and I just can't get into it and I was wondering if there were any other book I could get into although I usually hate textbooks I'm mostly after the grammar only textbook so far I kinda like is Japanese the manga way but genki is too classroom oriented for me and says to "talk with a partner " but I'm self studying by myself so who do I talk to ??? 😂 these seem most straight forward. I also want to Thank you for this video .
Recommend me N3 book. I need vocabulary, grammar with english meaning. I read before minna no nihongo-1 and 2. And that book was very good for self study.
Do you mean literature written in Japanese?? Hmm right now, I'm trying to read some middle school level books in Korean and Swedish but for Japanese I mostly read news and manga! I share what I read on my instagram @livluvlang usually. What languages are you studying??
@@GladlyGlobalChannel livluvlang Yes thank you😂and currently I'm studying Spanish and Chinese. With Spanish I'm in an advance level and with Chinese I'm at an upper beginner. Other languages of interest are of course Japanese and French as well. They're all very interesting and I love reading. I'll definitely check out your Instagram!
I'm really happy I found this before buying anything. I watched a lot of videos and most of them recommended The Genki and Minna no Nihongo. But then I found this and its perfect coz im self learning too. I bought the Nihongo so-matome books :] Thank you!!!!!!!
Outstanding video! Many thanks to the author of the channel for the recommendations! The problem with many people is that they want to take a "magic pill" or get "secret knowledge" and immediately have skills and abilities. However, the truth of life is that knowledge, skills, and abilities do not come by themselves. You can't learn a foreign language without doing anything, without wasting your time and effort, just like you can't learn to ride a bike lying on a comfy couch, listening to lectures and watching videos about "modern methods of learning" on a bike. To really learn something, you have to really practice every day. You're going to fall down while you're learning, and you're going to get bumps - that's normal! The ups and downs of learning are an integral part of our lives. Motivation from success and depression from failure will always be your study companions. However, every student has problems in his or her studies that he or she lacks the knowledge to solve. It can be: poor memorization of words; no progress in language learning; the student can speak, but does not understand speech by ear; misunderstanding of grammar; incorrect pronunciation, etc. Agree that a problem you don't know how to solve is very demotivating. In order to find the answer to our question we have to spend a lot of time to read videos, articles and books by polyglots. In today's world, we have to solve problems as quickly as possible. I don't have time to study and analyze a huge amount of information. My goal is to master the basic knowledge of a foreign language as quickly as possible and already start earning money effectively in the international arena. I settled on the practical guide by Yuriy Ivantsiv " Polyglot's Notes: practical tips for learning foreign language". This book is always in my bag. If I have a problem while learning a language, I quickly find the answer in this book. There are many different techniques and tips for learning a foreign language in Polyglot Notes. I have made my own individual schedule and plan for language learning. Now I know what I am going to study, how I am going to study, when I am going to study and what results I am going to achieve. No problem could stop me! With an effective language learning plan my professional skills are more and more in demand internationally every day. Friends, don't stop there! Everyone has talents that millions of people around the world need! Learn the language and make your ideas and dreams come true! Thanks to the author of the channel for the informative and useful video! Your videos motivate me.
Thankyou this really helped,i just have one question.Does the pink 1000 kanji no kyoukasho book explain the kanji meanings in english or is the whole book written in japanese?
I love this helped me a lot thanks you! I’m actually studying to be a polyglot too! I’m 15 I know Spanish and English and now learning Japanese, I see that the books a little high in prizes but it looks fair (any advice you have for a polyglot in proses? Especially since I’m young I need all the help I can get)
Hey Irene! Thanks for taking the time to comment. The polyglot journey is one of revision. Trying different methods, and constantly checking to see whether they are working for you and what areas need to patch up! This channel has other videos on polyglotism as well as I give tips daily on instagram @teresas_tea. If you need more personal help, I also consult kids from 10 years old and adults of all ages in language learning skills. If your parents want to invest in your dream, that would be a good place to start!
I know im late but when studying hiragana should I study the combo hiragana (like the 2 character hiragana that makes a sound)? or is it not worth my time?
hi, i just received the N5 book and i'm a bit confused. i don't really understand what i have to do as there's very little english translation. do i need to learn hiragana and katakana before i use the book?
@@Bibinezumi You definitely don't need a textbook to learn Hiragana and Katakana. And I believe every textbook except, "genki" assumes you already know hiragana. This is because if textbooks use English to teach it's counter-intuitive. and you'll get dependent on the translations / romaji and not really the Japanese. To learn the writing systems, I would create a chart, OR search "hiragana worksheet" and print it as many times as you need. If you want something more structured; here is my friend's etsy with a printable you can buy ^^ (not sponsored) www.etsy.com/listing/609614153/japanese-hiragana-katakana-printable?ref=shop_home_active_10
Lol I’m an absolute beginner and I just looked at a copy of that 日本語総まとめ book online and I’m just like 😳 Either that textbook isn’t for beginners, or I’m just really dumb
Hi Ariel! With these books, there are a few for every level of the JLPT from N3-N1 where N3 is the one most suited to beginners. with that said, If you are a complete beginner it would be wise to combine it with using other resources as well! While it may sound counter-intuitive it is usually a good idea to get a textbook *slightly* ahead of your current level so that you won't have to buy a whole new textbook when you reach a certain point in your studies. Of course, if you are a complete beginner the N2 or N1 will go over your head as they are focused on more advanced parts of the language! While I love these books everybody studies differently. So I would say that the best thing you can do is to find a textbook that is right for you and the way you enjoy studying!
I'm studying English French and Japanese by myself but actually at the moment I'm more focus on English and especially Japanese because I'd like to reach the intermediate level for Japanese. Anyway what do you think about studying languages at University ? I don't know if it's better to go to Japan studying Japanese or at University in the way that I can study more languages at the same time
I'm sure it's different for every university, but personally, I didn't like any of the language courses offered at my university. It really depends on the quality more than the place
ahh i really wanna buy a textbook because it'll help me stay motivated, but the only ones here in my region are genki and minna no nihongo. I only know hiragana and katakana, plus some sentences so im thinking about buying genki. should i? (٥↼_↼)
Not certain about the points made but ,if anyone else needs to find out about fastest way to learn to speak japanese try Pycanta Simple Japanese Protocol (do a google search ) ? Ive heard some interesting things about it and my brother in law got great results with it.
@@GladlyGlobalChannel oh ok 😁 it almost seemed to me like you were switching accents back and forth. It probably depends on the words themselves that you are saying.

the idea that they’re in a store FILMING yourself with others makes me feel like you’re such a strong person lollll

What is the name of the bookstore ,
Can i use n4 somatome for self learner like me.. is it worth it,?
I know im late but when studying hiragana should I study the combo hiragana (like the 2 character hiragana that makes a sound)? or is it not worth my time?
Hi dear! Can you rephrase that again because I'm sorta lost on what you mean. xoxo
Yes because you will read the hiragana wrong
I also found nihongo challenge which is also N5-N4. Which one do you think is better compared to nihongo sou matome?
I've never tried those! Let me know what they're like :)
I can speak 5 languages and now I am learning japanese lol
may i know the store name ? please
What's the name of store?
So you wouldn’t recommend Genki?
Hi! I'm a complete beginner in Japanese. Is it worth getting all n1 books of Nihongo Sou Matome at once?
No. N1 is the most advanced level. Start with N5 books :)
@@dryagan So the basic goes from 5 then up to 1 xd?, im confused xd
@@user-us6lo7cg1d Exactly!!
hello...hello...i have a question... when would you describe yourself as an intermediate in Japanese...i really want to knowwww...help!

118

I want to learn Japanese by the end of this year and move there within 5 years do these help
Learning a language is a lifelong endeavor. You dont learn everything in a year
If you plan on learning Japanese in 5 years that is a realistic goal, but learning in 1 isn’t. I still believe in you though
