Do kids not learn "standard" Japanese? In schools before the 1990s Swedish kids weren't allowed to speak dialects or other languages, they were basically forced to learn standard Swedish. Sadly this has messed up my local dialect, I still speak it, but I don't know any of the words so it's just standard Swedish with a bit of an accent.
@@joelthorstensson2772 I imagine that like school children around the world Japanese kids are taught the "official" standard version of Japanese in school . However this does not preclude the daily use of the many local/regional street dialects, slang and accents as Shogo and his team demonstrated in his video. To make it even more interesting there are also different versions of written Japanese!
Dialects are used in normal conversations with friends but we all lose the accent when we speak formally!! The thing with Kyoto is that it has a unique intonation so it's probably difficult to learn if you didn't grow up using it.
Oh yes! A comparison of Japanese culture in different prefectures would be fantastic to see!!! Please add this topic to your list of future videos. Thank you Shogo!
I lived in Aomori prefecture for about six years. When I was in the south people said I talked like a farmer, immediately recognizing I was from up north, often exactly where. In the United States that might be rude depending on who says it but I never got that sense in Japan. More just surprise that I had a less typical accent for foreigners.
I grew up in SC and AL, so I'm very surprised that I didn't get much of a southern accent at all. And now that I've lived in North Dakota for a year, it's disappeared almost completely!
I love listening to these dialects. My wife is from Nagasaki Prefecture and at first was shy about teaching me words and phrases in her dialect, then Sakamichi no Apollon came out. Some characters speak in Sasebo-ben and since then she became more open about teaching it to me and has been happy to share it. My Japanese teacher at the time, who was from Sasebo, was adamant about me not learning dialect because she felt it was embarrassing to speak.
I remember going for five days vacation in Hokkaido with my friends when I was 19. We were messing around in a mall before going to our camping place. I was stopped by a nice old lady and told to clean up my language. I didn't say anything rude from Tokyo Japanese, but I guess it was in Hokkaido! 😳 I apologized for offending her. She then said, "Ah! You are all from Tokyo!!" I think our accent gave us away.
Very interesting. Four dialects (Hakata, Hiroshima, Kobe, Kyou Kotoba), all West Japan, then standard vs. Keihan accent. And Shogo has to switch between both...... But it's always the nuance that is difficult to translate......
My grandmother ( my mom's mom ) was born in Hiroshima. She also had cousins who lived in Beppu prefecture and Osaka. Having visited Japan twice in the 80s, I don't recall any of her family using the specific dialects whenever they spoke, so I'm assuming they only spoke in the standard Tokyo dialect and I was studying Japanese in high school at that time, I could understand some of the basic words and phrases. Ever since my grandmother passed away, I can't speak a lick of Japanese now even if my life depended on it. I also was a big fan of the Hokuto No Ken ( Fist of the Northstar ) anime series.
Thank you for this video. Hearing the Hiroshima-dialect in a serious setting helps. I had only ever heard it before in the old Yakuza movies 仁義なき戦い. I didn't know what it realistically sounded like until now.
It's interesting learning about this. Is it fair to say that japanese dialects tend to change the grammatical structures, and sometimes the pitch, but the pronunciation doesn't seem to radically change? In the UK I think it's kind of the opposite. Grammar rarely changes, but the pronunciation can differ wildly. Both countries seem to have their own regional words though.
Same for the US I think, and sometimes we just use a different word depending on the region but the structure and grammar is usually the same, except for our special "hood" style speech 🤣
In Swedish, I'd say everything can change depending on the dialect: grammar, pitch, pronounciation and vocabulary. I do my verb tenses differently in many words compared to standard Swedish, for example.
Great video idea, it was a lot of fun to watch. I love these discussions and having it in English is such a blessing. I would 100% watch videos based on your last two suggestions: the collab on other regions' dialects and culture.
Would definitely like to see more of this, Japan is such a diverse language, and it would be wonderful to hear more of the differences between regions =D
This was a great idea for a video. I like that you started commenting on the literal differences between the phrasings. That was really helpful for me, and probably anyone who has learned only 1 dialect in depth. For non-natives the different dialects can feel like a totally different language at times.
I can't hear the difference on some of these but seeing it helps. Its interesting to hear japanese has different dialects. I guess it's like comparing US northern and southern accents.
I love this! I love learning about languages, and I'm interested in learning Japanese. So, seeing and hearing the different dialects is really interesting. It was also really nice seeing you all having so much fun!
Amazing topic and I am really surprised by the difference in the dialects. I have been learning Japanese for the past 4 and half years but today it felt there is still very long way to go. Thankyou soo much to all of you for making such an informative and incredible video.☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
This was really fun and interesting! The different dialects were referenced in a lot of japanese literature I read. Since I'm far from fluent I only read the translation and always wondered how it would actually manifest in the japanese language. A huge Thank You to the whole team!
I really enjoy watching all of you. I learnt a lot and your laughter is infectious! Why can't the world have more people like you. Thank you for your videos. A heart for each of you. 🤗💖💖💖💖
i remember learning about hogen from the first exchange student we hosted as a kid. she was from tokyo. we ended up hosting many students over the years from many countrys and many different areas in japan. i loved it! i consider many of them family and keep in touch to this day.
This is a lot of fun, but I need proper subtitles, especially for Tomoko, because I couldn't hear her very well. (My hearing is somewhat damaged and I also have an auditory processing disorder that sometimes makes even the clearest speech something I have to hear two or three times to understand.)
Osaka dialect being used in shows I remembered very well were in Itazura na Kiss : Love in Tokyo (Kinnosuke) and Josee, the Tiger and the Fish (especially Josee). This video is really interesting and it's going to make me pay more attention to what dialects are being used when I watch anime from here on. Thank you.
I’d love to see a part 2! Maybe even with Hokkaido-ben? This was awesome and very eye opening to the dialects within Japan! I think it’s a great idea to do a collab with others and their dialects!! I’d really like to see more deeper into the Hokkaido-ben (after watching the anime 僕だけがいない街/Erased) したっけ〜
Dialect comparisons are so interesting. In the manga/anime _Papuwa_ there are several characters with different dialects as like their character quirk and I always loved reading it.
This is really fun, I was smiling the whole time watching you guys! Looking forward to when you collaborate with people from other prefecture as well to know how the dialect sounds like, and share of culture too. :) well done!
This video is a really fun idea! Makes me want to do a similar video with German dialects, those would be COMPLETELY different depending on where you are from 😂
Oh don't even get me STARTED on that. Learning Standard German is hard enough, but then I saw how different Swiss German was from Standard and hung my hat on learning it back then, hahaha.
The Shogo family, I really enjoyed the video, as if I was sitting with you, and this, in my opinion, is the strongest thing that distinguishes the channel
Comparing the cultures of prefectures would be wonderful! This was lots of fun, but having the literal translations of the different accents would make future ones even more interesting.
Loved this video hearing your dialects! Would love to see a video on some more like Tsugaru-ben which sounds like a foreign language to me, or the Ryukyu languages.
Very interesting and funny to watch! ありがとう I would also be interested in different culture habits or so. Like, I heard in Kyoto you should leave the place, when offered tea.
Interesting content :) When I was younger, I watched the anime Lovely Complex (RabuCon), and they were speaking in Kansai dialect, so all this honma, -hen, -chau, -wa speaking brings memories
This was a really fun video honestly. And may I recommend an idea for a video? I'm sure you've heard of genshin impact by now and I was wondering if you could do a reaction/review or the characters from Inazuma (which is based on Japan and the Edo period I believe) region and maybe rate them on accurancy? Or otherwise point out the inspirations for the outfits/what you think might be the inspiration and such if it interests the team of course!
man this is blowing my mind, I'm realizing there's a whole spectrum of dialects I've been hearing in all my japanese media all these years- I thought there would only be a few! japan fits in my state and we only have like 2 accents in one dialect!
all of our languages evolved and branched from an origin. as long as your language is along the same main branch as another language, you will find these similarities.
Whenever I heard Shogo speaking in Kansai ben, Hattori Heiji (Meitantei Conan) comes to my mind and his pride for his accent.❤ I'm from India and I absolutely love your content and Knowledge. Thank you so much.🤗
I'm half Japanese half Romanian, and I grew up (and continue to live) in Romania. I still grew up connected to Japanese culture, but only so much. I'm glad for channels like these that show aspects of Japanese culture. It makes me feel a little closer to Japan.
I was born in Japan in Tokyo and I only had to speak standard Japanese as I had to speak very politely. It was very interesting listening to dialects from Kansai, Hiroshima and Fukuoka!
This video was really funny for me haha. I live in Osaka currently and I talked to someone from Kansai about that a few days ago. A lot of 'yan' in the conversation xD
I first recognized another dialect when I was watching Himouto! And we got to see a flashback of Ebina-chan with her family and Akita and her speaking an Akita dialect. And I thought it was the most beautiful accent I've ever heard. Was surprised to find out it's treated like southern accents are here and seen as hillbilly or hick despite how nice it sounds. Once I become fluent in Japanese it would be fun to try and learn that dialect.
My ex-girlfriend was a "Kote-kote" girl directly from Osaka. her accent was HEEaVvY!! There were more than one time when Japanese people asked her to repeat herself when she spoke because they couldn't quite understand something.
Very interesting video Shogo. I see that a few of you grew up in or around Hiroshima. I find the Mōri clan be the most fascinating of the old families. I was just wondering, with how pivotal the Samurai clans were for a big part of Japanese history, how are they perceived by modern people living there. Are they just interesting historical figures you learn about in school and then kind of forget or ignore, or are they present in someway in the psyche of local Japanese people kind of like a local superhero or mascot?
could probably answer that by asking yourself if people still think of all the dead yorks and lancasters as they go about their modern lives. your projection onto the culture is uncomfortable.
@@darkiepoo8949 Seeing as though I love history, yes I absolutely do think about that from time to time, especially if I'm walking past historical landmarks. Also why on earth are you randomly replying to a year old message?
Joji has a Kansia dialect way of speaking Japanese it’s so funny as it’s what a lot of comedians in Japan speak in as there are a lot of comedians from Osaka apparently.
I really just read that notification as “What if Naruto was from Kansas”
Perfect comedy
accurate

I lived in Aomori prefecture for about six years. When I was in the south people said I talked like a farmer, immediately recognizing I was from up north, often exactly where.
In the United States that might be rude depending on who says it but I never got that sense in Japan. More just surprise that I had a less typical accent for foreigners.
I think folks everywhere categorize some accents as "country". I'm from the South, get All the time.🙂
I grew up in SC and AL, so I'm very surprised that I didn't get much of a southern accent at all.
And now that I've lived in North Dakota for a year, it's disappeared almost completely!
@@mizbootsie8175 I love how Southerners speak.
@@nicolaspace1182 - We differ ALOT. From just a little, to we can't understand eachother. And I mean in your own state!🤭😁

Hakata and Hiroshima dialect are not Keihan accent but Kanto accent(standard accest)

Having visited Japan twice in the 80s, I don't recall any of her family using the specific dialects whenever they spoke, so I'm assuming they only spoke in the standard Tokyo dialect and I was studying Japanese in high school at that time, I could understand some of the basic words and phrases. Ever since my grandmother passed away, I can't speak a lick of Japanese now even if my life depended on it. I also was a big fan of the Hokuto No Ken ( Fist of the Northstar ) anime series.
Small correction: Beppu is a city in Oita prefecture. Beppu is not a prefecture itself
depending on generation and schools and expected career, they may have been forced to learn standard.
Thank you for this video. Hearing the Hiroshima-dialect in a serious setting helps. I had only ever heard it before in the old Yakuza movies 仁義なき戦い. I didn't know what it realistically sounded like until now.
Come to think of it, I'd like to know if the dialect in those old movies is exaggerated or true-to-life.
anything said by yakuza is extreme. it's their own made-up dialect rather than anything regional or a natural outcome of the language.
It's interesting learning about this. Is it fair to say that japanese dialects tend to change the grammatical structures, and sometimes the pitch, but the pronunciation doesn't seem to radically change?
In the UK I think it's kind of the opposite. Grammar rarely changes, but the pronunciation can differ wildly. Both countries seem to have their own regional words though.
Same for the US I think, and sometimes we just use a different word depending on the region but the structure and grammar is usually the same, except for our special "hood" style speech 🤣
Similar to Czech + gendered vocabulary can change genders between various dialects.
Maybe not as much as English dialects in UK, but there's still quite a lot of pronunciation differences between Japanese dialects.
we do. I think the biggest factor in our dialects other than vocabulary is the inflection changes.
In Swedish, I'd say everything can change depending on the dialect: grammar, pitch, pronounciation and vocabulary. I do my verb tenses differently in many words compared to standard Swedish, for example.
This was fun you guys, thank you for showing us some different dialects of Japanese 🙏🏽😎

I find the word 'anata' for 'you' very interesting, because in Arabic the word for you is 'anta/anti' and in coptic it is 'nto (pronounced en-tah).
In Indonesian, exists a very similar word "anda" which also means "you" though we would only really use it for very formal settings
@@oneof29 and let's not forget abput the legendary "ente" =D =D=D

Do the dialects go back to the feudal period? People under each lord had their own dialect and never associated with somebody outside their region.
