  • Hi,
    Welcome to Speak Japanese Naturally.
    After watching this video, you'll be able to type in Japanese on your smartphone!
    Before watching, please add a Japanese keyboard to your smartphone.
    If you're using iPhone,

    If you're using Android,

    If you want to improve how you sound when speaking, my course, "Japanese Phonetics with Fumi" would work for you. You start with basic sounds, then mora, pitch accent, and intonation.

    I can't believe how much more intuitive this is than typing English on a QWERTY keyboard. I just started studying Kana flashcards *today* and this keyboard already makes sense.

    ありがとございます! this really helps! I failed a lesson on a language app because I couldnt figure out how to type so this helps a lot!

    Ive been using this keyboard style for about a month, it is definitely better for me this way. For me, the less English input that I see and use, the better. When I learned Mandarin, I learned Taiwanese-Zhuyin input very fast using this method because I took Pinyin off of my phone. It took me only 2 weeks to get used to it

    • @SpeakJapaneseNaturally
      @SpeakJapaneseNaturally  2 роки тому +10

      Yes, the less English you see, the better you'll learn.
      I'd never thought of taking off Pinyin. Wow...
      Thank you for the comment:)

    Thanks, I'm doing Duolingo Japanese on my iPhone. All my answers had been in Romaji. But today I skipped up to Section 2; Unit 5. Suddenly it asked me to write a sentence in Japanese. First time I've ever had to write on a keyboard in Japanese. Suffice to say, this video really helped. I don't know how to type in Japanese script on my laptop yet, so let me say, arigatou gozaimasu!

Maybe when I visit I will find a few and hopefully ill have enough under my belt to keep up a conversation.

    Thanks. Even typing in English can be difficult on a Samsung phone, so for me it will be easier to type Japanese on a laptop. Sometimes, I admit that I've used Google Translate ( type in English, copy/paste, and convert to Japanese), but that doesn't help too much in actually reading Japanese, without any help..
