This is good when you want to read or speak but not much for writing. Personally learning to write first for my own before I head into speaking and reading.
@@themasterweb8341 formal phrases or sentences are the ones you use when you're not close to someone for example someone you don't know! And informal are casual sentences which you use with friends and family!
Finally someone who has useful phrases and in both formal and informal ! Nobody else does that. This is soooo good and helpful. You are by far the best sensei for practising speech. Thank you Tanaka-San. 🙏🙏🙏

Thank the author of the channel for making this beautiful and useful video for us! Many people are embarrassed to speak a foreign language if they have no speaking skills. People are afraid to hear criticism from others in their address. It all comes from having a psychological complex - to make a mistake. But, after all, he who does nothing is not wrong! In Yuriy Ivantsiv's workshop "Polyglot Notes. Practical tips for learning foreign language" states that we need to talk as much as possible: with yourself, with the mirror, with inanimate objects, with children and with pets. Find an interlocutor in real life or online. Talk without shyness. People won't care how you speak. They understand that you are a foreigner, as long as they understand you. They may even acknowledge your progress in their language and compliment you. However, always be prepared for criticism of your speaking skills. If you have the will to speak, you will gain an interesting interlocutor to consolidate your knowledge. Everyone is strewn with mistakes - don't be afraid to learn from them. As the Latin wisdom says, "walk and thou shalt not go astray". In the book "Polyglot Notes" by YuriyIvantsiv an entire chapter is devoted to the development of spoken language. Here you will find many useful tips and each student can choose a technique that suits him or her best! I wish you all the best of luck in your language learning!
Probably because if you use Google Translate, it is likely with strangers or people you need to use formal language with. And Google Translate can't know which one to use because it doesn't know who you are talking to.
I'm Japanese and Japanese is very difficult. However, I am very happy that he is studying hard. I support you! 私は日本人で、日本語はとても難しいです。ですが、それを頑張って勉強してくれている事が、とても嬉しいです。応援してます！
i never knew I would try learning japanese but my recommendations always have a video of this on it so i just decided to check it out! This channel is neat, I don’t regret it checking it out sorry needed to edit comment
konnichiwa tanaka san..video ga zenbu daisuki desu..im on my N4 level now and your videos are very helpful..thanks for the hardwork..isshoni ganbatte..
0:20 shouldn't it be "GA" particle instead of "HA" particle in that sentence? Cuz GA is used with "like/love/hate" verbs. With HA this sentence is saying that "SOLELY likes ramen, and not the rest of the food". It's a grammatical rule using HA or GA.
As Half Japanese & Living in japan "HA" is correct. Idk how to Explain but we dont usually use "GA" when we are asking someone something.. sorry for bad grammar
@@豆腐-d7t8h No, no, do not worry. I said that because i learned that when you use "HA" instead of "GA" in a sentence with "like or hate" something, they are emphasizing the fact that you only like or hate that thing but no the rest related to it. For example... "君の目が好き" = I like your eyes "君の目は好き" = I like your eyes, but not the rest of your face. (XD) Or something like that. Now if I am wrong, sorry. I watched a lot of videos explaining this difference that way, tho.
I thought the particle "no/の" was used to show possession and to link nouns together into hierarchy. So why is it being used in questions like "nihongo no shitumon shitemo ii?" #15
Thank you for learning. And if you're just starting out, thank you for trying to learn. 学んでくれてありがとうございます。 まだこれから！って方も、学ぼうとしてくれてありがとうございます。 Japanese language is not always well handled even by Japanese people. You will often see words used that are not in this video. Japanese people use not only Japanese but also a little English. They use katakana when writing foreign words, but there are sure to be times when you feel uncomfortable because the meaning is different from the original meaning. 日本語は日本人ですら上手く扱えないこともあります。 この動画に無い言葉を使われることも多々あるでしょう。日本人は日本語だけでなく、英語も少し使います。それは外来語と言い、書く時はカタカナを使いますが、本来の意味とは違くて違和感を覚えることもきっとあります。 However, when you actually talk with Japanese people, you will be surprised at how much you can communicate with them. You may draw a line in the sand because you are not Japanese, but the desire to compromise is the same. Good luck! I look forward to talking with you guys someday. でも、実際に日本人と話をしてみると意外と通じるものです。日本人じゃないからと一線を引かれる事もあるかもしれませんが、歩み寄りたい気持ちは同じですよ。 頑張ってください！いつかあなた達と話ができる日を楽しみにしています。 by Japanese 日本人より
This is great training for someone like me who struggles to create sentences ! By the way, I have a question : what’s the difference between 今週の日曜日は空いていますか and 今週の日曜日は暇ですか?
I'm kinda curious, in 0:22. In a normal sentence you would use が as particle instead of は when it comes to like something (好き/大好き) Isn't that the same in questions or does it change then?☂️ Btw, your videos are helping me and other learners so so much. If I don't have the motivation to actually learn sth with textbooks, I'm watching your videos and I get at least revision and small improvements :D ありがとうございます田中先生!!
I am a native speaker of Japanese. Such things happen for the following reasons. In affirmative sentences, the use of "が" as a particle implies that there are other things you like besides ramen. In contrast, using "は" as a particle means that you like only ramen and nothing else. In interrogative sentences, "が" is used when you believe that the person you are asking likes only ramen and probably does not like anything else. Conversely, "は" is used when you think the person you are asking likes more than just ramen. Therefore, we use "が" in affirmative sentences and "は" in negative sentences when no particular emphasis is needed. In another example, if you want to ask if he hit someone and it is presumed that someone else hit him, you say "彼(かれ)は 人(ひと)を なぐった？" (Did he hit anyone?). In contrast, if it is presumed that only he hit someone or that he mainly hit someone, you say "彼(かれ)が 人(ひと)を なぐった？". Incidentally, in negative sentences, these particles have the same function as in affirmative sentences. We also use "は" when we state things objectively, such as when reporting the news that someone hit someone. There are a few exceptions, but in most cases this is the underlying concept.
Addition. If you want to ask us whether we prefer ramen or udon, we say "ラーメンが 好きですか？うどんが 好きですか？". Thus, if we want the other person to choose from several options, we use "が". This is because we are asking about one of the choices. When replying to such a question, "が" is used in the same way as in a normal affirmative sentence. This is to say that you like the other food choices, but if you had to choose one, this would be it. On the other hand, if you want to say that you like ramen but dislike udon, you use "は".

Such things happen for the following reasons.
In affirmative sentences, the use of "が" as a particle implies that there are other things you like besides ramen.
In contrast, using "は" as a particle means that you like only ramen and nothing else.
In interrogative sentences, "が" is used when you believe that the person you are asking likes only ramen and probably does not like anything else.
Conversely, "は" is used when you think the person you are asking likes more than just ramen.
Therefore, we use "が" in affirmative sentences and "は" in negative sentences when no particular emphasis is needed.
In another example, if you want to ask if he hit someone and it is presumed that someone else hit him, you say "彼(かれ)は 人(ひと)を なぐった？" (Did he hit anyone?).
In contrast, if it is presumed that only he hit someone or that he mainly hit someone, you say "彼(かれ)が 人(ひと)を なぐった？".

There are a few exceptions, but in most cases this is the underlying concept.
Addition.
If you want to ask us whether we prefer ramen or udon, we say "ラーメンが 好きですか？うどんが 好きですか？".
Thus, if we want the other person to choose from several options, we use "が".
This is because we are asking about one of the choices.
When replying to such a question, "が" is used in the same way as in a normal affirmative sentence.
This is to say that you like the other food choices, but if you had to choose one, this would be it.
On the other hand, if you want to say that you like ramen but dislike udon, you use "は".
