I knew radicals existed because of wanikani but I didn't know the position mattered
It's a nice little tidbit to know. =)
left is meaning, right is reading!
It's a piece of cake this way. I was learning kanji in wrong way. Thank you for this video ❤
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
just watched almost all your videos in the span of a week just prepping to start learning japanese. now finally ordered my study materials and am going to be returning to the videos. you are a far better teacher on youtube than any other person/channel i’ve seen on the platform!
Thank you so much! I'm happy that you are finding the videos helpful!
How has learning Japanese been going?
Radicals were not a big part in my Kanji learning but I started to focus on them a few months ago and it has really helped and made my Kanji learning so much quicker. I'm off the opinion now that it's by far the best to start with the radicals cause it gives you the parts that you're going to be encountering again and again.
Learning new Kanji now is so much quicker cause so many of the new Kanji that I'm learning these days have nothing new in them, it's just the parts arranged in a different way. I have not studied where the parts are placed like you talk about in this video but I see that it's obviously an important thing to study, so this will be my next focus.
Yeah, I couldn't for the life of me remember a lot of kanji after some time. But knowing the parts I could connect a lof kanji, giving the parts of a kanji meaning. This way I could envision how a kanji got it's meaning. For example 'rest' I envision a person sitting in the shade of a tree 'resting'
Knowing about radicals and parts is super helpful. With that said, I DON'T actually think it is super important to memorize all of the things in this video. I think this is all just some interesting reference information. 😊
私は日本人の大学生ですが、こんなに詳しくは知りませんでした！！💦勉強になります！！
これはとても難しい。でも、諦めません！このビデオを作てくれてありがとうございました
えらいですね！見てくれてありがとうございました！
This channel really taught me something.
Precious content.
Thank you so much, Andy.
Thank you so much for this video! This is a lot of information that is never explained in WaniKani due to how it works, but helps connect so many dots for me.
Thank you for another high quality video! You can really tell how much effort you put into making these!
Thank you! I'm glad that the effort is noticeable! We will keep trying to get even better!
You are the best!!! I am so excited about this series. Just in my second semester of college level Japanese, and so the timing is perfect. You are so good at explaining things and I appreciate everything that you do. Keep up the good work.
Thank you! I'm glad to hear that you are finding it easy to follow! 😊
Hey! Thank you for the video and the course, very interesting. I will try your method from today!
Hope that the english won't be an issue since I am not english native but it seems to be pretty simple stories or situations.
I am very glad that this new way of learning exists, I was not very confortable with the other methods presented in your first video from this serie. They feel... well "native-speaker-suited" more than learner-suited.
Today, i decided that i want to finally start my japanese learning journey by using your genki series on youtube! I wanted to ask you though, should i start learning kanji while building the vocabulary and grammar sections or it would be better to wait until i start learning kanji?? ( unrelated but, i'm from Greece and all the lessons that are provided here are very expensive, so thanks for your great job!!!)
Your heaven sent Andy. Thank you 🙏
Q: why Japanese immigration authorities don't give points for kanken results?
A: cause that way there will be too many grown up dudes among elementary school students during the test
Funnily enough, 2 of my 40+ year old friends recently took the first level of the test with a bunch of elementary school kids. lol
I say, good for them!
@@ToKiniAndy well, judging by my own experience of taking the Kanji Kentei level 1 i doubt that very many elementary school kids take it. in fact, by my observation i would say the median age is well above 40. and every time i go there i see almost the same people - elderly people for whom preparing for and taking kanken is a sort of a hobby they engage after retirement. one gentleman taking the test at the same location has been taking it for like decades... but is yet to pass it
@@EvgenyUskov level 10 I meant.
Can't wait. Let the confusion start!!! LOL!!
do i have to learn how to write in japanese in order to learn japanese? my goal is to watch anime but im planning to visit japan in a couple years.
I’m just starting to learn Japanese, I have hiragana down. I’m currently working to memorize katakana, but my question is when should I start with kanji?
poor ashi wasn't included in the time indicator :
When does the jlpt n4 kanji deck come out? Then i might give up my WaniKani account to join the Tokini Andy community.
We're hoping to get it finished up by January, but I can't make any promises. We are considering making all the data available by November or December for those who don't want to wait for the official deck and want to create their own from it though.
It will take some time, because we write all of our own examples, create our own order, draw pictures and get art done. We also record all the audio for both male and female. And it's just the two of us. 😅
Thank you for the response@@ToKiniAndy ! I wish you a lot of succes. Keep it up with making your videos, they help me to keep pushing myself to study Japanese. So I can once achieve my goal of studying in Japan and living there, to make Japan an even better country!
Is the Kangi deck available if you take the annual / year membership? Not listed in what is included with that membership… Best, John
Yup! It's included in both monthly and annual. Thanks for considering it.
@@ToKiniAndy :should I get a book or workbook to supplement your kangi course?
Is that something I should learn? Or something that's just good to know? o.O
Something that is just good to know. 😊
yay
Thats kanji radicals interpretation called "Determinative" or "taxogram"
hehe nice thumbnail.
Thanks! I had fun with this one. hehe
This is so damn complicated omg
There's no need to memorize it all. Just a peak at what makes up a kanji. 😊
