Yay ! Thanks for the video ! I love your Videos , They r really helpful ! :D
This video is from the absolute beginner's section of JapanesePod101 website so why upload it to youtube? Just wondering. I am going to an event on Saturday 4th of March where I live (I don't live in Japan but the UK) called hina-matsuri, I went last year and enjoyed it. Has there been any videos on the many events in Japan? If there is I probably haven't got to that section on your website yet.
Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com how do u pronounce the hiragana N properly? Im still confused.
Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com I amaalso having trouble pronouncing the Japanese R. Any tips?
Hey I have a question, How would you say the letter 'l' in japanese?
My name is Luc so I was curious how I would say something like that in japanese
Question: Why should you learn Japanese?
Answer: So you can sing anime openings and watch anime without dubs/subs.
You just repeated what he said... lol. Obviously he wants to understand what they are saying. Why would anyone watch anime without knowing what is going on? Or sing words that you don't even know what they mean, let alone even pronounce.

German dude here, who has French in school but hates it so he will start learning Japanese
Cool! Ich habe Deutsch für 4 Jahren in der Schule gelernt. Jetzt lerne ich Japanische! Ich spreche Englisch, aber ich liebe Japan. Ich denke, dass Deutsch und Japanische sind sehr interessantes Sprachen.

Lol true.
Terrificly true.
I am learning Japanese because of anime.
YAS HISUE
anime and because i want to sing go flow from naruto
So true. But to be honest, aside from anime being the reason I wanted to learn Japanese, I also want to visit Japan one day in the future and just explore the culture and enjoy my time there. Which means I need to know at least the basics of the Japanese language.
I just want to learn this so I can stand in front of a mirror and talk like one of those anime villains...
Nice
Lol i wanna mess with everyone in online classes. Speaking Japanese and pretending i'm Japanese to freak them out ;w;
Lol me too
Dont forget the deep voice and Japanese laugh!
So u know how know

its time.
I wish! But still what if you don't know the other words
Literally why I’m here

There are several factors in teaching yourself to talk Japanese quickly . One place I discovered which succeeds in merging these is the Fergs Magic Blueprint (google it if you're interested) without a doubt the no.1 resource that I've heard of. Look at the incredible info .

Very good guide!!
4:38 Fun little fact: The word ビール for beer ( and コーヒ aswell）actually comes from the Dutch word for beer (bier), adapted by Japan when the Dutch were the only people allowed to export goods into Japan (such as beer, coffee, and science studies).

This pod101 series is excellent. They really packed a lot into this 30 min video and explained it more clearly and precisely than I've seen anywhere else.
I am from Japan, and for some how, I’ve always struggled with speaking my own countries language. I spoke chopped English but still had the accent, this video helped a lot.
I wanna speak Japanese for two reasons
1-anime
2-so I can speak it at school and no one will know what I'm saying >:3
Little Ashey i mean if your saying it and no one understands it, what was the point in saying it at all? lol
POLO
Lol idk 😂
Just the fact that I can start speaking Japanese and all my friends will be like.
"OH MY GOS WHAT THE FUCK ARE YOU SAYING?!"
minasan: omg the person is being brain washed by aliens!!!! (sorry idk why im saying this it sounded funnier in my head)

I guess Risa voices over the Japanese Lesson in Duolingo.
Holy shit i haven't even noticed until now, and now I feel so damn dumb...
Dxrkness yeah. I knew she sounded familiar.
Yes babe it is ❤️😉
Really? Who's voice is she?
Risa means laughter in Spanish. Good name for a girl.
If you're not from a Spanish speaking country.
Lol yes
You so care because you replied lmfao
I’m latina, and that’s true XD
“Hey, Laugh”
That would be awkward. xD And Winston I care so no one?

They had me at anime. Anyone else?

My reasons for learning Japanese:
1. I want to travel Japan.
2. I want to watch shows in Japanese.
3. I want to know multiple languages.
Starting out learning Japanese, found this video incredibly helpful! Thank you for the upload!
I am actually learning Korean but I decided why not learn Japanese too?! Honestly, the first time I tried learning Hirigana, Katakana and Kanji I physically screamed because of how difficult it was at first. But watching this I realise that with patience and motivation(aka anime) Japanese isn't as hard and annoying to learn. I think I should take it one step at a time, Korean first since I know a little bit more and then Japanese but learning the language is my goal!I find hangeul and some parts of Korean easier but Japanese grammar feels slightly more easy. Plus my voice which is quite deep for a girl naturally goes a bit higher making me feel cuter when I speak Japanese. Wish me luck!
So had did it go?
I hope it’s going well for you! I’m actually coming from 2 years of learning Korean and I’m relieved because Japanese sentence structure is actually very similar to Korean. Same with pronunciation of some of the characters.
Update? 저도 한국어를 배우고 있습니다. 그리고 저도 일본어를 배우고 싶어서 히라가나와 같아가나를 공부했습니다. 하지만 저에게 한국어가 진짜 더 쉬운 것 같아요. 저의 발음은 의외로 좋지만 문법 더 어렵다고 생각해요.
Hey this was 3 years ago, can u update us?
The learning starts at 4:54
Your welcome 😊

Thank you

One more thing: Where people don't speak japanese, you can swear in japanese.
Japanese doesn't exactly....HAVE swear words...
They don’t have swear words and they find it quite disrespectful
TheSlimeKilling Minecart I do that at school
Not really hard words, just simple words like baka, etc
Just don’t do it in class lol
Some teachers are taught swears in different languages.. at least.. at my school they do.

OMG! Finally ! that makes sense now. I just started and got a bit lost right away in trying to figure out how to make sense of it all. Everything suddenly seemed daunting. I should have started with this video and then with the LEARN HIRAGANA lessons. Thanks for the video. That little bit of grammar info just blew my mind. It all makes sense now. I think im gonna not move ahead. I think im going to take this lesson and start over ! redo everything already done. I bet its going to be much more fun this time. Wish me luck.
Again, Thank you for the video's and making them available online.
