裏切り (betray) works perfect for English! Being stabbed in the back means being betrayed. 大切 (important) is sort of close. If a person gets the biggest cut of something, it can mean that they are the important person in the group that gets it! That's how I remember it. 親切 (kindness) I remember because of the phrase 'a chip off the old block'. It means the son(or daughter) is just like their parent. A (切) cut piece (the 'chip') of the (親) parent (the 'old block') is the son or daughter. Since the parents(usually) are the 1st people that children learn what kindness is like from their parents example, I use this to remember that 親切 means kindness.
This guy is more efficient than my learning cards and the rest of my learning methodes in total... which tells a lot about my learning methodes, but it was meant to be a compliment.
Im learning kanji by myself and got recommended this channel today and have to say it is awesome! you are very entertaining and i learned new things. thank you!
I just outputting stuff that is in my mind, which after a long period of language immersion, seems to be telling me something 🤣: kippu = clipped paper (ticket) taisetsu = big setup (important) kitte = kitted out (postage) ← imagine your hand putting a letter into the mailbox shinsetsu = sincerity (kindness)
To tell the truth, the Kanji for "切" has so many meanings. The idioms introduced here also apply to one of the meanings of "切”. However, I omitted it because the video would be very long if I told you about it!
This is interesting as always. I want to supplement that, 切 can go back to the Chinese origins, have other meaning of “close” , so it help to explain 親切。 we also say back stabbing in English mean betraying , exactly the same to 裏切
Thanks! That’s right, for the sake of clarity in the video, we have chosen the meaning of "cut" in this case, but that is the original meaning.(親切) Glad to know someone who knows: ☺️
I feel like the secondary meaning of 切 (セツ) is somewhat consistent, and only (or mostly, at least) appears in on'yomi words and compounds If this "other" セツ roughly meant "kind/gentle/dear" it would explain why 切ない (セツ ・ない) means "miserable, suffocating", and also why 大切 and 親切 mean what they mean Ofc this would look either obviously true or false to anyone who knows about the etymology of these terms, but I don't quite know where to look for 😔
Thanks!!! You know very well! You are almost right in the sense you meant. In addition, "切" also means "to approach". (Not so commonly known...) So it's possible that that meaning might have something to do with it. Your comments were informative!
To me 大切 makes sense, since cut is can also mean like a "share". So imagine you have a big share of a pie, that would be pretty important 😋 What makes less sense is 売り切れ = sell out WHY???!?!??!?!!
Oh, it has certainly been a hot topic in Japan recently. For my part, I would like them to have some manners, but I think it is also a matter of not knowing the culture and taboos of the country. Maybe I will unknowingly come in contact with a taboo when I visit a country somewhere. So it's important to research well. It's a difficult problem.

That is a very good way to remember!
Personally, I found the way you remembered "important" very convincing…!
@@flarklooney 'a chip off the old block' is a great saying
裏切り reminds me a lot of "backstab" in its meaning!
"it's a backstab" means "it's a betrayal" in english, too!
Thanks!!!
I see! “backstab”!!!
Thanks for the help!
i love how expressive he is
Thanks!!

切手 ＝ 手で切る物 🧠
ありがとうございます！
普通はそういう意味だと思いますよね…
For on-off switches
入 means on
and 切 means off
Yes! After I posted the video, I realized I forgot to explain that lol.
I knew the word for 'betray' but I didn't know the kanji for it.
Nice to know it literally just means 'back-stab'.
Thanks!
I see! I too am glad to know that
"back-stab"!
素晴らしいエピソード
ありがとうございます！
私も気に入ってます☺️
Learn it already! 🤣
Thanks!
Oh! You’re nice!

Long story you say? My curiosity wants to hear it..
To tell the truth, the Kanji for "切" has so many meanings.
The idioms introduced here also apply to one of the meanings of "切”.
However, I omitted it because the video would be very long if I told you about it!
besto sensei in aall youtube!!!
Thanks!
I am honored to be told such a thing by that adoring Mr. Sakurai. lol😏😏😏
Please teach me every kanji like this
Thanks!!
Please wait for me to post more videos!
Nice video, the Use of 切 is really confusing sometimes, but it's something that every language has!
Thanks!
Indeed, the meaning of this kanji is complex and difficult.
But you are right!

What does the “seven” Kanji means on the left side?
Thanks!
I think it is because "七" originally means "disconnect”.
There are all kinds of guesses, though…
I feel like the secondary meaning of 切 (セツ) is somewhat consistent, and only (or mostly, at least) appears in on'yomi words and compounds
If this "other" セツ roughly meant "kind/gentle/dear" it would explain why 切ない (セツ ・ない) means "miserable, suffocating", and also why 大切 and 親切 mean what they mean
Ofc this would look either obviously true or false to anyone who knows about the etymology of these terms, but I don't quite know where to look for 😔
Thanks!!!
You know very well!
You are almost right in the sense you meant.

What makes less sense is 売り切れ = sell out
WHY???!?!??!?!!

That's the most satisfying way to remember it!
“売り切れ" is another very strange word…
“切” is difficult…
press f for sensei
Thanks!
I will work harder on pronouncing the "f"!
Am I correct in my answer?

Toppogi sensei, i'm very curious, what do you think about the "recent" drama about foreginers behaving badly in public in Japan?
Oh, it has certainly been a hot topic in Japan recently.
For my part, I would like them to have some manners, but I think it is also a matter of not knowing the culture and taboos of the country.
Maybe I will unknowingly come in contact with a taboo when I visit a country somewhere.
So it's important to research well.
It's a difficult problem.
@@Toppogi-kanji Well said mate!
But it can’t be helped they don't know that…

切 = 7 katanas
切手 = 7 katanas 1 hand?
I've heard of 二刀一 but this is some next level shit
I see…!
But the "七" part of this kanji doesn't mean so much "seven."
But I guess 7 swords would cut well lol.
So it's a good way to remember!
@@Toppogi-kanji What does it mean?
The Kanji for "七" means "to cut off," so "切" must also consist of that meaning.
he died for our education 😭
Yes, see you…

Betrayal is such an expression, isn't it?

Been playing a lot of Famicom and Mark III games lately. My Japanese improved a lot... but my kanji level degraded because the games are entirely in kana.
