Hey just wanted to point out (not sure if it was intentional) but the kanji for yasui (易い) was perhaps inputted in wrong. Although I don't think anyone would misinterpret what you were saying.
@@Amagys Unfortunately, I'm not. As a matter of fact, I just found out about the word "35P" until you mentioned it. Initially, I thought it refered to some sort of age or something. 😅
This video really helped me to understand the nuance of んです and how to use it in a different speech style. And thank you so much for providing subtitles.
I cannot tell you how much I loved this video. I'm able to understand everything being said without subtitles, so I can practice listening while also learning something new! Thank you!
When I studied Japanese, apart from what he explains in the video, they also gave us a grammar explanation for the origin of the expression, which was very useful to me because in Spanish we have a similar construct to んです。 To substantivize a whole sentence you use the plain form + の. E.g. アニメを観るのが好きです。 I like watching anime. If you take the substantivized form, you can use it as a noun in a です sentence. So it becomes アニメをみるのです。 The の gets transformed into ん (dialectal). So literally you can think about 旅行に行くんです as “It is that I go on a trip”, a sentence with in a sentence, where you are omitting the obviated sentence: (The reason I’m reading this guidebook is that) I’m going on a trip. If you are a Spanish speaker, we do the same in Spanish: “Es que me voy de viaje” (literally, “It is that I go on a trip”, or 旅行に行くのです) I hope this helps other people understand or memorize this better as it helped me.
WOW! that was really awesome!!!! as a person who's learning Japanese, i loved the way you spoke( simple and slow) and the way you explained the grammar was perfect. どもありがとうございます。
Great video! Pretty helpful. I've always had a hard time understanding the right time to use んです. Thank you so much for the explanation! 🙇🏻♀️ I'll look forward to the other part!
You have my instant subscription, Akkii-san. I had studied Japanese in college for 3 years and haven't really touched it outside of watching anime or listening to music for 5 years, yet, the way you speak, your cadence and tone, made it possible for me to watch this video without subtitles and understand everything in the lesson. I hope you know how important that little bit of motivation is, and, thanks to you, I might actually go back and brush up on my Japanese.
I personally always assimilated the んです form to a way of giving the context of a situation or an underlying cause, which could broadly be translated as “The thing is…” in English. It usually implies though that the statement in theんです form is self explanatory for the listener to understand the situation.
Same here. I've also translated んです in my head as "The thing is..." (which I believe is closer to the literal translation since one of the translations of の is "a single event/activity/or thing" ). Other phrases I use for んです are: "Well, about that"; "You see"; "What happened is"; "What it is is"; and "Actually," (mentioned in the video and one I happily came across the other day as well-- as in: "Actually, I'm 22"). As for んですか, I just use the question form: "You're drinking?" "So you're going on a trip?" instead of "Are you drinking?" "Will you be going on a trip?" I also like to use "Can you tell me...?" for んですか when asking for directions and such. On the other hand, I'm a little leery using "it's because" (or similar "reason" phrases) for んです because it's rare that one's response to the other person's statement is the reason for their statement. For example: "You're drinking? (んです question) It's because I'm 22. (んです answer)" The "because" here would only fit with the unsaid context, and doesn't even really fit then. For example (unsaid context): "Why are you drinking? You don't look old enough to drink. It's because I'm 22." To me, it would make more sense to say, "Well, actually (or the thing is) I'm old enough to drink. You see, I'm 22 now." Plus, んですから shows up from time to time, which would turn into: "it's because because." Well, I guess that's all for now. Haha. Sorry for the long rant, I was just happy to see someone else use the same phrase as me. Thanks for posting.
Wow speaking so slowly helped me so much to understand this video without subtitles! I was able to listen to every word and understand what was being said. Thank you!
You know what? This is very helpful. THey way you pronounce things. It's not fast and it's pronounced with just enough emphasis that it's not dumb down nor is it so slow that it's frustrating. I still have a hard time with hearing everything so this seems like a good place to train my ear.
thanks to you, I've been able to understand the topic SO MUCH better than how my teacher explained it, I'm definitely reaching out to your content more often in the future🙏🏽✨ keep up this top-tier content 🩷 greetings from Mexico!
I remember in highschool my sensei described んです as having more emotion attached to it (ex asking ◯◯に行きたいんですが。。。 or saying ◯◯ 好きなんです). I feel your explanation fits that idea well and even built on it to teach me some things I didn't know. In summary, great stuff, thanks for sharing 😊
Thank you for this explanation! N desu is such a common form in Japanese, but most grammar books do not explain it or give some long, confusing explanation. I had realised that the key to N Desu was the idea of explanation, but I noticed usage 3 and wondered if it could also be used for some kind of emphasis [強調]. The Mt Fuji example is certainly a sort of emphasis, but there are so many things we could call emphasis, I don't think that word should be used. Listening to this video, I feel we may be safe in calling N Desu "the Explanatory [説明体]", as it is not much of a jump from explaining to the idea of "explaining that something is the case despite what everyone thinks" and so surprise [=usage 3]. For me, it's safer to stress that the form has a different meaning from ます. There may be situations when using the Explanatory could sound funny. "Why is he using the Explanatory? Is there something I don't know about?" You end by saying there are other usages. I wonder if there are any that have no element of explanation.
Thank you for your teachings! I hope one day i will publish my mangá and work in japan one day. Or at least, get a contract to sell it. And of course, i can read games and tons of stuff which arent written in english. The thing is, english isnt my first language either. So i think we gotta do our part.
This is a nice video! Would it be possible to separate your english and japanese subtitle tracks in the future? I would rather just look at the Japanese
This lesson is excellent. In the anime Sket Dance, a girl tells a boy: 話があるんだけど。Google translates it into "I have something to tell you*. Is that a good translation?
All questions will always have a context and intention, no? Otherwise, what's the point of asking the question. With that reasoning, then all question should require ndesu, but that isn't right either.
Syntactically, it's a perfect reflection of English "Is it that _?". So, for example, it would be used when the you're trying to establish whether X is the reason for Y, but the asker certainly doesn't want to constrict it to only a cause/effect relationship, but rather also a correlation, some link, etc. Very often, it's whether "the context we're both clearly aware of" is related to the new information I'm bringing up. No idea whether this is really relevant semantically, though. I've noticed that it makes sense to view んです (it's that...) and んですか that way every time I've come across it to get *an* understanding of what's being said and why it's being used, and it's seemed *consistent* every time, but I still could just be wrong. An added difficulty in translation is the simple fact that in English, you'd pretty much have to decide that you wanted to phrase the question that way at the outset in order to ask it that way, apart from using e.g. a tag question. In Japanese, which branches the opposite way from English, at least for relative clauses, one can kind of decide to add it in as an afterthought. So I imagine for even this reason alone, it wouldn't have the full force or specificity of English "Is it that _?".
I think you missed the point of whether you’re asking for a simple answer or a detailed one. You may ask a person, " How have you been?" just for the courtesy of recognizing his/her existence without any interest in listening to all of life's problems they may be having. In Japanese, "元気だった？(genki datta?)” How have you been? Have you been good?. This requires simple answers such as：yup, great, fine and so forth. "元気だったんだ？”（genki dattan da?) gives an impression of " You look great in spite of expectation, what had happened in the past etc, etc. This sort of obliges one to respond in a different manner like, "Why would you think in that way?, Well, I've actually become a totally different person. etc. etc. Actually, the video doesn't differentiate the two uses as being dependent on whether there is context or not but rather if there is a specific context which makes the questioner want something more elaborate than a simple "yes or no". So the translation in the subs should have said," there was no specific context." rather than, " There was no context."
いいビデオですが、質問がありますけど When you ask a question with -ndesuka, does it ever happen that the listener doesn't know why you are asking it like that? For example, taking your example of a 22-year old drinking, from your point of view, maybe you think the person looks young and that it is surprising that they are drinking, but from the other person's point of view, maybe they don't consider themselves to look young, or don't think there is anything unusual about them drinking, so they may wonder why you are asking the question like that.
Hello. I am Japanese. Depending on the context, the listener may not know what the question means. However, the listener will judge that the question was asked with some intention. Also, it feels natural to use -ndesu if you are surprised by something that is not surprising to others.
Could you avoid combining Japanese/English subtitles? Or at least provide a Japanese-only track? The reason I sub to channels like yours even though I'm way beyond basic grammar is because the explanations are in Japanese and I use it as listening/reading practice while revising grammar I know, but when you combine them I can't stop myself from seeing the English, which ruins any benefit of having the Japanese there.
This man has the clearest Japanese I’ve ever heard. Incredibly well explained video, please make more in the future! ありがとうございます!
