      I know that!If that happen you should response with "日本語をちょっと話せます" (Nihongo o chotto hanasemasu) "I speak a litttle bit japanese". But in that case it means "I have no idea what are you talking about" and they will try to answer in english. ^^

    While the words are helpful, the comments in between proved more valuable. The whole thing about the Japanese not saying "no" directly, but hesitating.... VERY, VERY helpful. When they hesitate, you think that there is just a lack of adequate communication and keep trying, to everyone's frustration!

    Useful for beginners. I REALLY appreciate that he spoke the phrase slower and annunciated well. Beginners are trying to pick up sounds they have never heard. They are watching your mouth to see how thats done. So many vids that dont do that. Some sound may be CH or TS. I need to see what your tongue is doing. And the cultural explanation is extremely helpful. Like explaining why my sister in law does not say No.

    • @ujin765
      @ujin765 5 років тому +2

      @@jjibayan7342 Yes, it essentially means please, and is used in polite Japanese. In casual Japanese, you would hear "chotto matte kure"..
      Kudasai and Kure come from verbs Kudasaru, and Kureru. Both mean to give, to bestow, but basically mean *please*.
      So, chotto matte kudasai/kure, literally translates to something like "(give me) wait a bit."
      In Japan, there's a strong hierarchy, so the relationships between the giver and receiver are always established through different verbs depending on the speaker, and level of politeness.
      Thanks for waiting a bit = chotto matte KUREte arigatou gozaimasu -> thanks for (giving me) waiting a bit.
