      Yeah, the more Japanese, the better. I think the reason why they use a lot of English is because they don’t have to put subtitles on it. Making language videos myself, I can say that it’s a lot of work adding subtitles.

      It's far more easier to have someone explain the basic concepts in your native language then switch to lessons in Japanese when you get a good grasp of then language. It avoids confusion down the line when you're learning more advanced things.

    • @Zeriel00
      @Zeriel00 2 роки тому +1

      @@falling4014 Yea this is true but there's a plateau where you have no choice but to jump into Japanese only if you want to learn. Anime is great for this, you can read subtitles but make sure you're listening to what they're saying. You can pick up a TON of vocabulary while having fun watching Anime if you do this.
      What most people do is just read and don't listen to anything they say. Thats why I have friends that literally only watch Anime and don't know a single thing about Japanese.
      BTW This is how I learned English also, watching TV in English, reading magazines in English and look up words I don't know in the dictionary but most are picked up trough context. With language, you either use it or lose it.

      Hi Miku I used to love watching Bayside Nights and Love Generation! Also Majo no Joken was something I remember watching. Great Teacher Onizuka definitely helped my conversational skills because I was told by my immersion teacher it contained pretty accurate dialogue of younger people in it. I lived there for almost five years starting right after the earthquake.
      As for my five languages, I am a linguist by necessity. I worked a very international job for many years and had to absolutely be conversational in other languages.

    miku-sensei. Thank you for including the Japanese closed caption/subtitles on your videos. Being able to read along with your excellent enunciation makes it completely easy to follow along. I was always a better reader than a listener but combining the two makes it an excellent learning tool. Plus hearing the kanji spoken by native speakers in their natural flow makes them easy to absorb their usage/readings even if I don't explicitly know them or can read them.

      @confounded_feline 9 місяців тому

      15 years watching Japanese media before studying any grammar I could rhyme off a 50 word/phrase list maybe. I've studied other languages formally before and even many years after using more frequently and I can get around a conversation much easier. Although I will say I found it phonetically easier to pick out the Japanese speech relative to the other languages. That said, without the grammar knowledge it was still incomprehensible. So I think at best when you do gain that comprehension, you will more readily be able to hear what you've studied in the speech easier.

    @jimross7648 3 роки тому +2

    I'll admit that I had a lot trouble picking up what you said. I needed the subtitles. I agree that it takes work. When I spent time in Japan my Japanese would improve because I was surrounded by the language. When I got back to Canada, well last year happened, I lost my tutor, and for a few months my Nihongo benkyo drifted. When I started back I learned that I needed to spend more time each day on Japanese. I'm now spending approximately four hours a day working at improving my vocabulary and pronunciation. I use UA-cam much differently now than I previously did. I found and subscribed to your channel. I like your instructional methods and techniques.
    However, I find the deficiencies I had in learning to master English show up in my Japanese. I spell badly, and sometimes add or subtract words in sentences which obviously change meanings. In English when this occurred I learned to concentrate, and reread until my reading and writing rarely had these errors. In Japanese I find these issues are magnified but I don't have depth in the language to always recognize that what I read, write, hear and speak is not what is actually written, or heard. Lack of concentration can turn ability into lack of ability instantly. In same day that I can fully read and understand words, phrases and sentences can suddenly turn into meaningless symbols and sounds that I am unable comprehend. I must the turn to Romaji to reset my brains ability to comprehend Japanese.
    I'm sure that I'm not the only one whom has this difficulty, but my former tutor thought it was a lack of effort when suddenly my abilities and understanding were no longer present. I operated on instinct and assumption which sometimes worked and other times led me astray. I continue to fight to over come this issue, and as my grounding and comprehension in Japanese improve I'm able to adapt the same coping skills I use in English in Japanese. It is a slow process. None of the language instructors have ever discussed that such issues exist apparently assuming that having a large vocabulary and ability in your native language was easily acquired and that easy acquisition will occur in your new language.
    However, I enjoy the challenge of learning to function in Japanese. Hopefully when world resets, I will be able to take a four month or so Japanese language program in Japan to make my abilities to operate in Japanese similar to my abilities in English.

    I'm glad you spoke about how you aren't going to be able to make anything out without knowing grammar and vocabulary. Its obvious but I still needed to hear it, I was worried that because when I heard people speaking I can't really tell where one word begins and another word ends I'm just not good enough or something. Or similarly when reading, if there is a bunch of text written basically in just Hiragana I can't really pick out the words because I don't know a lot of the words.

  • @GoddessOfThree
    @GoddessOfThree 3 роки тому

    I'll second the "taking note of words you don't know" one! It's a little different for me because I'm still at a very early point where I don't know most words, so my prompt to take note is when I recognize a word more than once (rather than when I don't know a word - because that would be practically all the time!)
    But I started doing this naturally when I started listening to Japanese songs, if I noticed a word or short phrase that I'd heard at least once before (e.g. すべて、わすれて、どこ/どこか、etc), then I'd look up what it means and suddenly I'd hear it like *all the time* including in songs I'd previously missed it in. I'd start hearing it spoken in anime and be able to connect it with the subtitles, and sometimes even rewind to listen more closely to where/how it's situated in the full sentence. And this video being fully spoken in Japanese is helpful for the same reason! It provides more opportunity to practice listening and connecting words to subtitles, just like with anime.
    It's been a really helpful method for improving my ability to differentiate spoken words from each other when listening!

You've explained clearly the difficulties faced by a learner of a foreign language from your own experience and how you overcame that difficulty and became good at it. Only thing I felt that was missing from your advice was 'to always consult dictionary to find the meaning of a word'. My Japanese friend presented me a lovely dictionary (PROCEED Japanese-English dictionary , published by Fukutake Publishing Co. Ltd.). It helps me a lot and I recommend that to all Japanese language students. Arigatoo gosaimashita !

    Thanks for this video. The biggest hurdle learning any language is speed and slang in my experience. You learn the textbook version of a language as a student but many native people don't speak like the textbooks say you should.

    I decided to learn Japanese on a whim last year so I could be doing something productive with my life. My first year I have been lacking in direction but stayed dedicated to grinding, whether or not it felt super productive. The main thing I spent my time on was learning to read kanji, which involved a lot of vocabulary acquisition (funny enough, when I watch videos like this I can understand a decent amount with just Japanese subtitles... so I think I might be a lot better at reading than listening at this point). I have just in the last couple months began to attempt speaking in Japanese with people online, and holy crap am I glad I spent so much time learning vocabulary. I am still learning lots of new words every day, (my 英和辞典 helps with this) but man I thought this whole year was a waste up until recently. Attempting to form sentences has made me more keen to noticing how the language is spoken, which has improved my listening skills somewhat. I feel like I'm in this really cool stage of learning where I've gotten past the boring part where nothing makes sense and I'm actually finding it really fun to put what I've learned into use and building on that. I still have a looooooooooong way to go before I'm going to be able to speak well or understand most of a sentence, but man, working towards that goal is really challenging and fun.
    When you were talking about writing down words that you've heard in a notebook, that totally reminded me of what I do. I have a running list going in one notebook of words or phrases that I've heard multiple times. I totally do hear those words and phrases when I listen to spoken Japanese, and it helps me piece together the gist of what someone is saying (or singing about... because I listen to so much nihon no ongaku!!)

    I was told studio Ghibli stuff was a little better than a lot of Anime language wise, because Hayao Miyazaki preferred natural speakers to voice actors. I found that interesting 😊
    I just started learning Japanese today( vowels and the k column) so thanks for subtitles

    I think that listen some conversation in the target language is very usefull. But not only listen something out of some context or without desire to learn the most common words that are spoken in the audio. Sometimes i'm working on computer and i listen music or podcast in japanese. When i listen the same word who had been told many times i google it and try to memorize it. After all, i listen it again. Audios with transcriptions are very usefull to me.

    This video is basically one big description of Immersion, by far the most important thing I learned to do in my Japanese learning, courtesy of Matt vs Japan. I was able to understand about 95% of this video with no problem, only had to look up a few words, and I largely credit this ease of understanding to my immersion.

    I enjoy listening to japanese songs. I feel so happy if I can catch some vocabs that I have learnt before. After listening to the same song repeatedly, the memories of the vocabs can stay stronger

    • @philippebarbie3829
      @philippebarbie3829 3 роки тому

      Understanding songs is so much easier most of the time. I don't know if it's the speed difference of singing and talking, but understanding a conversation is so much harder.

    What helps me understand is sometimes "writing" what Japanese people say in my head. It sometimes takes me a minute for the words to pop out, but when it's "written down" it gives me more time to really think about what they're saying. Gave me a bit of problems with casual speech, but after looking of some contractions it became simple again

  • @avatar098
    @avatar098 3 роки тому +5

    I agree with the first point. I'm by no means fluent, but after a certain point in your studies you start to hear certain vocabulary or grammar used in a slightly different way that all of a sudden makes it "click". I always get excited after those, whether it's from watching dramas/documentaries/animes/music/etc. Just keep learning, keep listening, and keep practicing!

    Miku Sensei, a thousand thanks! Long ago I begged my teachers while in Japan (mid to late 70's) to teach casual Japanese. They would not, and I do understand their reasoning. With your help, I have been able to quickly understand casual Japanese and other important usage matters, and watch Japanese movies and dramas, and my comprehension, etc., is improving so rapidly. I am reviewing now the kanji as well. Thanks for including them. I am a Caucasian American male, to put my 70's experience in context.

    I am so glad to watch this video! I have been away from learning Japanese for a long while but I'm ready to get back. My question is, I understand the difference between casual and polite Japanese and I do use a variety of sources to improve my listening but I read an article that says the Japanese information rate is 0.94! and the syllabic rate is 6.19, and the information rate is 1.08. basically, the Japanese language is packed with so much information in a short time span. the article was from Tofugu.

    I practice by watching anime a lot, mostly dramas and shojo. I took Japanese in college, too, so I was already familiar with the basics, and while I know it's not the best way to learn Japanese... It helps a lot that they speak more slowly than in live-action. Also, there's usually at least one character who speaks more formally. And I have picked up A LOT of vocab and grammar. For example, "hazu" wasn't something we covered in my college classes, but I kept hearing it in anime, to the point where I finally looked it up. And yeah, I do tend to look up things that stand out to be me like that. Sometimes I can learn things just because I keep hearing them. Recently, I've noticed "semete" for "blame" in Fruits Basket. I learned from other anime its homophone meaning "at least," but... Oh, and of course I know that's the -te form; the base is "semeru." Yeah, I just kept hearing it. Sometimes I learn things and I'm like, when did I start understanding that? I don't remember learning it. I've REALLY had that experience with kanji; the time that really stands out to me where that happened was with 流. I've gotten to the point where I can understand, hm, about 50% of the dialogue? Give or take depending on the anime and the episode.
