Most languages will die due to climate change wiping out many ppl so don’t bother. Also Japanese ppl don’t care if you learn their language or not. Some even don’t want you to learn
A true weeb would never regret learning Japanese even any other person would not regret learning Japanese. Japanese culture, language, people, technology, video games and anime all are amazing. I am an Indian and I love Japan. 日本は世界で一番素晴らしい 国だよ 🇮🇳♥️🇯🇵
I started learning Japanese because I find it to be the most beautiful sounding language I've ever heard. I don't watch anime, play games, or listen to J-music, I'm simply learning it because it sounds nice to me and I'm finding it to be really fun to learn! I don't think i'll ever get tired of this language so I look forward to continuing my study of it and improving for many more years to come!
Finally someone who isn't learning Japanese because of anime. I just like the culture, the language sounds nice, and I plan on visiting Japan in the future, therefore learning it!
I got interested because of anime initially but I’ve stopped watching as much anime since my teens now so now I just like it because it’s a language to learn that can be of any use to me. I went to Japan and would love to go back and understand more. It’s also easier than French with its conjugation and pronunciation crap, Japanese is a lot easier for me because I know Spanish too and the sounds are not very different. I find it to be easier than English. And realistically those two were my only choices
@@TheCatnipCinemaI'm not fluent but my understanding is you use different conjugations, honorifics, words, etc depending on who you're speaking with and the setting... generally there's polite and casual speech and then there's honorific speech and there may even be more levels than that. So for instance Japanese uses honorifics like -san -chan, etc after a name....san is usually used as an honorific after most people's names as a way to show respect for someone you don't know or who is in a higher position to you....but there are others too. And you also change the speech in other ways like I said changing some words or conjugating the ending (verb) and or certain adjectives differently. I'm far from an expert in Japanese but the little I know is stuff like desu and masu at the end of a sentence is for polite speech and leaving it off would seem casual or impolite to someone you don't know well or are subject to like a boss or teacher....
pretty sure they said “ganbare minna” which would translate to “good luck everyone” or some form of encouragement but i’m still learning japanese so please correct me if i’m wrong!
I think I'm the only person in the world who is learning Japanese strictly for traveling and not because of anime 😅. I mean I used to watch it as a kid. I'm not against watching it but I am an outdoors guys I just don't really watch tv. I want to travel around Japan but more in the countryside as well. Not just Tokyo or Okinawa because people will speak to me in English there.
agree. i never watched much anime at all, but i was always interested in languages and i would have learned sooner or later. would love to travel to japan if i ever get the chance to :)
‼️ BUT so much Japanese literature is not translated outside of Japanese and they are not planning to ever translate it outside of Japanese. Some of the most famous books have no English translations at all. Not even fan translations. If I had to choose one I would rather learn to read Japanese than learn to speak Japanese

That last one about anime is all you. I still think that’s cool even understanding how it sounds. Also, Shounen isn’t the only genre. The voice acting is actually very fitting in anime like Non Non Biyori.
As for the last point, understanding anime actually makes it easier for me (I’m Chinese American, I don’t speak Japanese AND I DONT CLAIM TO, HOWEVER, I’ve learned to audibly recognize certain basic adjectives and phrases) Even though subtitles have made me read faster, understanding more Japanese means I have less need to read so I can appreciate the visuals AND I get the pleasure of noting the differences in the way the characters talk, like if they have a very polite or casual or amusing or haughty way of speaking
That will probably not happen, english is my 2nd language and when I watch or play video game with English dub. It does not affect me like native speakers
It won't hit the same because by the time that you learn Japanese enough to watch it without subtitles, you will be old and be questioning why you spent so much of your life (several thousand hours) for the sake of a cartoon.
Dude, your so lucky. I was trying to read the Japanese comments and replies some people wrote. I couldn’t understand the kanji except for 2 and my WPM is 7💀 Wish me luck learning this language 😭
I will still learn it. And since I am currently learning it I love it when I randomly hear words and understand them. So eventually I will understand the rest.
I’m currently learning Japanese… I am teaching myself. It is such a beautiful language that I have desired learning for a very long time… if they would’ve taught it in primary or secondary schooling I would’ve chosen it in a second. I just regret not learning sooner. It’s a shame that it’s considered a dying language.. and as someone else said, if it is dying, I shall strive to learn it harder❤
This video be like: Why I regret learning Japanese but the comments be like: Oh i never regret learning japanese.(btw i am also lesrning japanese rn and i also dont regret learning it😅)
I heard some expert say that modern Japanese began in 1945. Japanese is going through something similar to what happend to English in the 11th and 12th centuries when it picked up so many French words. So many common Japanese words have a traditional version and an English version like 買い物/ショッピング and 日記/ジャーナル and so on practically as infinitum...
That reminds me of when I first learned English and most of the English songs I liked before got worse, once I understood the lyrics. That's actually the reason I decided to not learn Japanese :')
Damn, I just wanna learn it so I can go on an extended food trip eating the traditional foods of each prefecture 😅 and also enjoy talking to random people about various topics on the way.
First of all point number one has been bugging me a lot haha xD It is kind of true it's insane how much import words they use. And third point is kind of funny to. That being said I do NOT regret learning japanese even though it's ongoing. The language is amazing and can express in so much better ways than my own language (swedish) and english as well. With such little effort you can express incredible complicated emotions. Plus all the people in japan I've met is so friendly and really appriciate that you speak japanese and always seems impressed and compliment you.
Japanese language isn’t dying, it has 110M native speakers and 97M speaking outside of Japan, but Japanese indigenous languages are dying, some that only the Native Tribes in Japan are speaking which are, Ainu, Hachijō, Amami, Kunigami, Okinawan, Miyako, Yaeyama, and Yonagun, which are spoken by the smaller islands that don’t have that much contact to normal Japan.
@@nihon.ni.sumitaifr... Wtf are native americans of japan? Are they native to the americas or to japan? Does this person think japan is part of the americas?
I feel like the third reason shouldn’t take away from the sometimes well crafted stories, fun character designs, and overall amazing art/animation. And I’m specifically talking about the quality content that we may have come across at one point in time and it resonated enough with us to hold our interest in anime.
I am still learning the basics, thsi video wasnt very motivating but ill continue trying to learn it. I think that most of japanese people are amazing and nice, I am not only learning japanese for anime but also for gaming and hobby reasons
Japanese is one of the most beautiful languages on our planet, and we have years of history that will continue for hopefully hundreds of thousands of years. Before you post running your mouth off against a country’s language that has been around for centuries, consider what the language actually means to people.
I speak to endangered languages now for me to different as these are my native languages, but I feel learning a language that is dying is much more important than one that has little to no risk of dying
the Japanese language and culture is incredibly beautiful. It’s complexity is the reason I am studying it and enjoying it ❤️ It’s definitely hard and there are times I think i’ll never be able to master it, but then I remember, if I can learn THIS, with as difficult as it is, I can master any language. We keep going! 💕
@MilkyLore I don’t mind if it’s not useful. I’ve gone back to school 4 times now because I just really enjoy learning and challenging myself to accomplish new things ☺️
I'm learning it first of all to watch anime with no sub, and because I find it beautiful. I'm gonna learn French and Spanish as well, learning new languages is so refreshing.
As a Turkish Native Speaker Turkish has a lot of ar*bic and Persian words and It ain't Universal except for using other State of Turk but when you go to Krygzistan and Kazakhistan they usually speak Russian.It's fate is worse than Japanese.
So, I’m ten years old and I’m trying to learn some Japanese. When I was seven or eight, I wanted to visit Japan so bad, and now, since it’ll probably be a while before I do actually get to visit. So, I really wanted to learn Japanese. So if you’re wondering, “okay so what,” I know why, I’m telling you this for a reason. I need FREE app recommendations, please, don’t recommend apps that cost money. Arigatō 😊
There are more borrowed Portuguese and Dutch words in Japanese than english tho. and the stuff that is borrowed from english is unrecognizable. like, amefuto is football. a microwave is denshi re-nji
I thank every single one who wrote a good comment, I just started looking for videos to learn japanes, and this showed up, and I felt so bad, people saying they not regreting and those supportive beings, Thank you, I love japan, I love its palces, its people I want to put them my heart, and keep them safe, so it felt painful enough to hear this, and also healing to know people think the oppsite ♥️ you are dear to say it's a cool lang

Even though subtitles have made me read faster, understanding more Japanese means I have less need to read so I can appreciate the visuals
AND I get the pleasure of noting the differences in the way the characters talk, like if they have a very polite or casual or amusing or haughty way of speaking
Point #3 is why I stopped watching anime 15 years ago.
I am actually worried that anime won’t hit the same once I learn and maybe it’ll all sound like dub to me. still want to learn tho
That will probably not happen, english is my 2nd language and when I watch or play video game with English dub. It does not affect me like native speakers
It won't hit the same because by the time that you learn Japanese enough to watch it without subtitles, you will be old and be questioning why you spent so much of your life (several thousand hours) for the sake of a cartoon.
😂😂😂😂😂@@jinjurbreadman
@@jinjurbreadman nooo, you killed my motivation damnit 😭
As a Japanese dying just doesn’t sound so nice. I love my language and find it beautiful😊
Dude, your so lucky. I was trying to read the Japanese comments and replies some people wrote. I couldn’t understand the kanji except for 2 and my WPM is 7💀
Wish me luck learning this language 😭
I will still learn it. And since I am currently learning it I love it when I randomly hear words and understand them. So eventually I will understand the rest.
I’m currently learning Japanese… I am teaching myself. It is such a beautiful language that I have desired learning for a very long time… if they would’ve taught it in primary or secondary schooling I would’ve chosen it in a second. I just regret not learning sooner. It’s a shame that it’s considered a dying language.. and as someone else said, if it is dying, I shall strive to learn it harder❤
My motivation to learn Japanese hasn't decreased at all...
Here's an advice for everyone, don't be lazy!
Seriously, consistency is key!
This video be like: Why I regret learning Japanese but the comments be like: Oh i never regret learning japanese.(btw i am also lesrning japanese rn and i also dont regret learning it😅)
I heard some expert say that modern Japanese began in 1945. Japanese is going through something similar to what happend to English in the 11th and 12th centuries when it picked up so many French words. So many common Japanese words have a traditional version and an English version like 買い物/ショッピング and 日記/ジャーナル and so on practically as infinitum...
Japanese will not die for a long time.
That reminds me of when I first learned English and most of the English songs I liked before got worse, once I understood the lyrics.
That's actually the reason I decided to not learn Japanese :')
Man I just got into trying to learn Japanese and how im scared 😭
Haha, kind of true. Once I found the subtitles to some of my favorite vocaloid songs, I was like wtf is this xD
Damn, I just wanna learn it so I can go on an extended food trip eating the traditional foods of each prefecture 😅
and also enjoy talking to random people about various topics on the way.
I regret not learning it, now everything I watch I always check for JP audio and switch to it. Is beautiful language
World before his opinion: 🌎
World after his opinion: 🌎
😂 The other language I studied before is Latin, so it’s ok.
Well I am learning japanese just because I can
you should learn moldovan, just because you can
Oh no not the overthinking again
First of all point number one has been bugging me a lot haha xD It is kind of true it's insane how much import words they use. And third point is kind of funny to.
That being said I do NOT regret learning japanese even though it's ongoing.
The language is amazing and can express in so much better ways than my own language (swedish) and english as well.
With such little effort you can express incredible complicated emotions.
Plus all the people in japan I've met is so friendly and really appriciate that you speak japanese and always seems impressed and compliment you.
Japanese language isn’t dying, it has 110M native speakers and 97M speaking outside of Japan, but Japanese indigenous languages are dying, some that only the Native Tribes in Japan are speaking which are, Ainu, Hachijō, Amami, Kunigami, Okinawan, Miyako, Yaeyama, and Yonagun, which are spoken by the smaller islands that don’t have that much contact to normal Japan.
Hmm.... native Americans of Japan... 🤔💬... hmmm...
@@nihon.ni.sumitaifr... Wtf are native americans of japan? Are they native to the americas or to japan? Does this person think japan is part of the americas?
@@nihon.ni.sumitai Its similar to how the Americas have tribes, they have tribes aswell.
Japanese Language is honestly a Beautiful language, im thankful for Japanese Musics.
:> im Japanese
This guy doesn’t actually love Japan. Prob just learned cause of anime
That's how a lot of young westerners start lol. They're lucky if they find a pen pal.
I feel like the third reason shouldn’t take away from the sometimes well crafted stories, fun character designs, and overall amazing art/animation.
And I’m specifically talking about the quality content that we may have come across at one point in time and it resonated enough with us to hold our interest in anime.
me learning japanese to flex on my monolingual friends
i hate to admit that but yeah lol..
I am still learning the basics, thsi video wasnt very motivating but ill continue trying to learn it. I think that most of japanese people are amazing and nice, I am not only learning japanese for anime but also for gaming and hobby reasons
just keep it up.. don't lose hope by a random hilarious video XD
are you still learning? I'm in the situation you described in this comment right now. learning basics and videos like this are demotivating
Japanese is one of the most beautiful languages on our planet, and we have years of history that will continue for hopefully hundreds of thousands of years. Before you post running your mouth off against a country’s language that has been around for centuries, consider what the language actually means to people.
One of the best decision i made in my life was learning Japanese
British English is dying? As a British English person, I’m still here…
I think he's talking about old english.
Shakespeare thee and thou stuff.
Whites will be a minority on the island by 2060…
🤣
is it true that average british male start to lose their hair in their late 20s
I think you’re living proof that British English is dead, if you can’t understand sarcasm. Remember when the British were masters of it?
Man, 日本語 has become ソ America語 I can’t tell which language this video is in, or my comment。Good one クソ祖父mildlyさん
Yoooooo, it's Lu! (I'm Adonis)
😂😂😂
そう it is . as a matter of 実 i regret even becoming 日本語 at 上手 and that isマイ一番 reason i want to 忘れる the 日本語s...
FUCKING GRANDFATHER?!?!? (translate their comment to understand)
@@nuggettss 笑 笑 笑
Man feel like hes projecting with that last one 😂
I speak to endangered languages now for me to different as these are my native languages, but I feel learning a language that is dying is much more important than one that has little to no risk of dying
the Japanese language and culture is incredibly beautiful. It’s complexity is the reason I am studying it and enjoying it ❤️ It’s definitely hard and there are times I think i’ll never be able to master it, but then I remember, if I can learn THIS, with as difficult as it is, I can master any language. We keep going! 💕
@MilkyLore I don’t mind if it’s not useful. I’ve gone back to school 4 times now because I just really enjoy learning and challenging myself to accomplish new things ☺️
If I didn't know Spanish I couldn't annunciation anything in Japanese it's definitely a tongue roll language
As a Puerto Rican, i can confirm this ^
Yeah knowing spanish helps a lot with pronouncation but still can't save you from the writing
I thought just in western japan you roll your tongue like in kansai dialect because in tokyo you don't from the speeches & vlogs i've heard
Bro just roasted anime artists in every single way possible😭
I think the long sporty socks would be called "zentaito" instead of "leg cover"
Zen=full
Tai=leg
To=cover
I'm learning it first of all to watch anime with no sub, and because I find it beautiful.
I'm gonna learn French and Spanish as well, learning new languages is so refreshing.
As a Turkish Native Speaker Turkish has a lot of ar*bic and Persian words and It ain't Universal except for using other State of Turk but when you go to Krygzistan and Kazakhistan they usually speak Russian.It's fate is worse than Japanese.
......why did you censor Arabic??
I never regret learning Japanese. Besause I never learnt it
So, I’m ten years old and I’m trying to learn some Japanese.
When I was seven or eight, I wanted to visit Japan so bad, and now, since it’ll probably be a while before I do actually get to visit. So, I really wanted to learn Japanese.
So if you’re wondering, “okay so what,” I know why, I’m telling you this for a reason.
I need FREE app recommendations, please, don’t recommend apps that cost money.
Arigatō 😊
I like how everyone took this short way way too seriously. Like guys he's obviously joking 😭😭
English: Sunglasses, party
Japanese: Sungrasu, Pati💀
Would glasses be megane?
I won’t change my mind after watching dis vid, it’s my dream to learn japanese
YOU regret learning it, WE don't.
He doesn't actually regret it, he's joking
bro called british english a dying language
it is opposite, listen carefully
He said ‘not unlike’ meaning ‘like’. The negatives cancel each other out
@@newwondererunlike means not like, but not unlike means like. There are still millions of British people alive, so it's a wrong statement. Cheers!
Today I will be learning Japanese because I want to go to Japan when I am older. I might live there just depends
Yea same!
me tooo
がんばって！

There are more borrowed Portuguese and Dutch words in Japanese than english tho. and the stuff that is borrowed from english is unrecognizable.
like, amefuto is football. a microwave is denshi re-nji
