      It's like Math - You will not learn literally anything if you do not know or have forgotten the very basic or had started halfway, out of the proper learning order. If you have to learn any part of a little more advanced - high school and late middle school Math problems, you _have_ to know the base knowledge for those

    Why is everyone complaining that it's 'too basic'? It literally says it in the title that it's just the basics. Just because it's too 'basic' for you doesn't mean that it's useful. Sometimes it's good to revisit the basics, so stop complaining. If it's too easy for you, go onto one of the numerous intermediate videos on UA-cam. People like me appreciate these videos that go over the basics, so stop calling them useless. They're not.

    I would recommend around 5,000 vocabularies for you to memorize.
    Dont worry, Japanese vocabularies are usually easy as there are lots of English loan words. Like パイロット(pilot)、トイレ(toilet)

    We rarely say ‘watashi wa’ part because you know that I’m taking about myself. Instead, try using ‘to moushimasu (と申します) replacing from ‘desu’. It’s a humble form of introducing yourself, so it automatically suggests that you’re referring to your name. ‘My name is Jane’ could be ‘Jane to moushimasu’. It sounds sophisticated, even though ‘Jane desu’ is also correct.

    I think I'm really starting to understand this whole pitch accent thing in Japanese. Like, when they said "hajimemashite", I could hear the low and high pitches. It sounded like [ha - JI - ME - ma - sh' - TE]. Also, I'm starting to notice that, for certain moras ending in 'i' or 'u' sounds, when these are pronounced in low pitch, they become into what many English speakers would recognise as a schwa. Meaning, they sort of "disappear". It's really rather fascinating. I plan to start learning Mandarin Chinese in two weeks and, hopefully, recognising Japanese pitch accent will lead to recognising and emulating Mandarin Chinese tones.

    All the basics you need for starting out learning japanese without beeing to overwelmed!
    The これ、それ、あれ makes much more sence for me now.
    And THE BEST TIPP you teach us all... Take different colours and mark the "A + は + B + です / ですか / じゃありませんね / でした。 )
    If you make it clear with colours that u split the sentences you have it much easier understanding the meaning of the text

    It's good opportunity for also Japanese to learn English . I think Japanese language is difficult but Japanese people understand what you mean even if Japanese grammar doesn't follow strictly . I can understand by just only lining up words . Almost of all Japanese know Japanese language is difficult for a lot of foreign people so don't worry and never mind 😄 I'm glad just only have interest for foreign language .

I thought they were different words, no app I've seen teaches this and they want you to pay × amount BS... Great vid. To all partial japanese speakers complaining its too easy, stfu why dont you finish learning yourselfs if it is that easy, it's perfect for people that know nothing like me.

    I don't see any comments on it and this video is 4 years old so I'm gonna say it. The JFK comment was very funny, and I think the more casual conversational structure is great for these basic lessons. Everyone starts somewhere and basics are what children tend to learn through repetition and exposure. A more mature back and forth pointing out patterns and shortcuts was a lot more intuitive to how I learn now, and I think it helps it feels like basics, not pre-school work. Thank you for the free school, this has been my TED talk.

      もしもし! it might be easier for you to screenshot and study from your phone but id recommend writing down the lessons and phrases in a notebook! Taking screenshots of the lesson for later is a good idea and learning from screenshots taken on your phone is perfectly fine! Though to help you out, id suggest writing. It helps with memory. Writing down something helps commit it to memory easier! Also the notebook will be helpful. You can write just about anything in there! You can practice writing your characters and writing words! This is a suggestion though. You be you! さよなら!

    I can read hiragana and katakana now, but I can't translate everything into English. I simply know the basic ones. When it comes to kanji, I have a hard time writing some of them and barely remember all of them. Nonetheless, I would continue to study. I'm not sure how long it will take me to master it, but one thing is for sure: improving myself requires dedication and hard work! :) がんばろう!

    • @bernas_
      @bernas_ 3 роки тому +1

      A little advice if I may: Don't learn a language depending on another. Its bad to translate a language into another when learning it. You just have to learn it like a newborn, don't be afraid to not understand some things, our brains are amazing, they'll do the rest. And let me make it clear, learning Japanese is for life, if you really want to master Japanese, you'll study new kanji and expressions everyday until the day you die. There's over 50000 kanji around (while most of them are never or rarely used) you might find it fun to learn new ones everyday! がんばって!
