Anything that helps us to convey our thoughts directly should be considered as a language
So everyone is biliungal
Yes you can 😎. But to be serious... why not too learn a sign language? :) This idea came to me when I met a deaf person.
oooh Arabic maybe I should brush up on my writing skills....you want a native editor? Of course I trust you have very smart people already doing the work, I'm just intruiged
thank you for arabic subtitle
you are the beast 💝
yes you can count your body language as your 5th language 👍😇
Your body language is so expressive xD
Speaking with yourself is really useful but when I'm tired of it I sing. I search the lyrics in one language I'm confortable with and the one that I'm learning. Is specially hard with Japanese since usually there's Kanji I haven't seen before but that's my favorite way of learning.
Same here I love singing it sometimes it works and easy to get more vocabulary
The only problem is that a different part of your brain is used for singing than in speaking, so while it might help your pronunciation, it probably won't help your actual ability to speak that much. I love singing in Japanese too tho :D
@@user-kl3pl1gf7x besides learning vocabulary and pronunciation, I actually love how it helps me get used to connect words, I mean, as you are forced to follow a rhythm is like training for avoiding a robotic accent 😆
I’m going to try this to help me learn Japanese.
@@marah3298 Singing helps me learn and remember vocabulary especially as I remember the meanings of lyrics and phrases, so then I can piece them together while singing and memorize them for regular use.
This is my biggest problem. Plus I have some social anxiety so it’s hard for me to put myself out there and speak a language that isn’t my own. I’m trying though. I want to find a consistent speaking partner in Japanese and Vietnamese.
Same.
me too i always feel like i may say something wrong 😭
Same here, I'm even struggling with speaking to the people of my language in the internet/games, not to say about english or japanese
Im learning Japanese and Vietnamese too 😁. I recommend you to move to Vietnam where you can practice both languages easly.
I’m learning Vietnamese too!!
The way he speaks so “slowly” and also puts captions in both languages helps me regain confidence :))) ty a lot
In fairness, we can’t even understand each other a lot of the time here in the UK.
How do you guys live

Here are my steps for learning Japanese:
1) Hiragana Katakana
2) Kanji and Grammar
3) Speaking and Communication with real Japanese People (although this step can start from the very beginning)
4) Writing Essays and Reading Japanese News Articles
5) Never stop speaking and keep learning Kanji.
Oh thanks
Thanks, I found a japanese person online so he is helping me out a lot speaking.
"3) Speaking and Communication with real Japanese People (although this step can start from the very beginning)"
It is difficult in my country(Estonia). There are very, very few Japanese. Mby there are other ways to communicate, but I dont know about them yet.
Thanks man! That's what I need! ❤🎉
of course anime inserted in between and during all steps as well
Where is the "too scared to look for a speaking partner" squad at? 🤚

ここです!
hello there
こちらです~
I think the actual most important thing in learning a language is that, just like everything else in the world, it's totally okay to make mistakes and it's totally okay to seek help when you don't know something, so long as you're trying your best.
In this regard, the schooling system we've built fails miserably, as it fosters a negative environment where you may feel that "everything you do must be absolutely perfect or else you're an abject failure". This can be especially true if you have anxiety issues or you take your studies perhaps a bit too seriously or something like that. But thankfully the everyday world is not nearly as cruel.
So in my opinion, one of the first and most important things to learn when learning a language is to prepare yourself to be wrong and to know that that is okay. It is a part of growing and nothing catastrophic is going to happen to you because of it somewhere as mundane as in a class or at a language exchange. The world is not a cruel closed book test being presided over by your least favourite teacher, but rather a partner or group research project where if you are willing to put in the effort, any decent person will be more willing to meet you halfway and help you out.
Good luck in your studies everyone!
Very well said! I completely agree. Making mistakes is not a bad thing if one chooses to turn it into something they can learn from rather than a failure that they criticize themselves for and can't move on from.
it's worst than this, school is outwited by internet now.
you have everything online in your way, with better tools.
beside socializing, school is meaningless
That’s me basically. I’ve been learning japanese for more than 8 years; able to read and write well, as well as understanding the conversations. Sadly, when comes to speaking in class, I routinely make grammar mistakes at my first sentence and after which, my words would go haywire due to nervousness. From Singapore.😔
日本語力の自信があったら、もっと話そうとする。頑張れよ。
The real solution is to start all your Japanese with a disclaimer.
僕は話すのが下手だけど、読むのや書くのは上手だと思う
Something like that? Idk if my sentence if 100% grammatically correct. Idk the exact details/rules of no/koto after verbs
@@bobbywhite5319 I’ll take your advise. Hey, thanks very much.😌
@@Acro_LangLearn 先生, ありがとうございます。諦めないのです。😌
Hey, from singapore too! がんばってね！
My English when I write: 💪
My Engrish when I speak: 🥶
Some psychological factor about learning language:
There are 4 aspect learning language (RLWS - Reading, Listenting, Writing, Speaking) this 4 aspect devided to 2 groups, reading & listening r the aspect where you only receiving the language, the other 2 (speaking and writing) is completely opposite, you are producing the language by ur own knowledge. This is 2 completely different process in our brain.
And mostly when we study, we only read and listen, well and few writing. In order to be able speaking in other language, we have to practice producing language spontaneously, either writing or speaking. But ofcourse best way is practicing to speak, bcs speaking requires to think faster compared to writing.
このビデオをありがとうございます。I've been studying Japanese in Shinjuku for the last 2 years and I can only speak a little Japanese. I think the reason I don't use it very much is because the school pushes so much grammar and very little real conversation. They just say go out and start using it. My biggest problem is there is so much grammar in my head that when I try to speak, the grammar gets in the way and I freeze and stop talking. It's SO frustrating!
I wonder if that's also why it's hard for a lot of Japanese people to speak English. A lot of focus on theory, but very little conversation practice.
I can relate to this. I am currently with a language exchange partner and every time we have our 日本語 time, I get used on thinking about the grammar and it always turns out that my brain appears to stopped functioning. It really is frustrating.
I can tell I'm that way now. I'm learning 日本語 online and I've been crammed with so much grammar but when I try to talk to myself out loud using random sentences I notice that I take a long time to form a sentence because I'm trying to figure out the grammar
We have the same problem in Japan when we learn foreign languages. (It's commonly said the language education since Meiji period was focused more on understanding foreign books, contract, manuals, etc...because the opportunity of having conversations was rather limited for most people.)
Having studied English, German, and Chinese in Japan...I think it comes down to the same thing in any language. If you want to be able to speak, you should listen a lot of music, tv, youtube in that language. If you want to be able write, read endlessly.
Don't feel bad, there are people that spend years and even decades in Japan and still struggle hard with the language. There are many cultural and grammatic barriers that keep Japanese and English learners from understanding and learning from each other. The real challenge is finding people to talk Japanese with in Japan, as ironic as that sounds it is much harder than you realize since the cultural barrier is usually what limits the social interaction.
I've passed JLPT N5 last December and I think I understood almost everything without using the subtitles. Thank you for the tips, Hitoki!
Then you can pass at least n3 dud. Keep good work
@@Aseyona Thanks man, I still have a lot of kanji and vocab to learn, I wanna learn to read well asap. I'm working now on N4, hope I can pass it this December.
🎉
oh wow! that's amazing, i'm about n5 as well and i couldn't understand much because of my very very bad memory 🥲 it's very frustrating but i will keep trying! congrats on passing!!
@@lilichaii Thank you. Don't give up, I watched a lot of anime before I started learning and that helped me with vocab. The more I learn, the more fun it gets. 頑張って ください!
I think for me mt biggest barriers to language are Speed I find it hard to keep up with Japanese as the rhythm frequency is faster and I miss things while extracting the meaning. Similarly its hard to hear the separations between words sometimes. When learning and practising it is common for people to slow down to help you but this doesnt help when listening normal speed.
So easy sentences are not bad and enough to get by but beyond that is more difficult. I also sometimes have vocabulary gaps in unexpected places. The other difficulty is my full time job gets in the way of study however i can cope well enough for a holiday but Im not likely to become fluent.
That sounds very familiar, you basically described my challenges too.
@@stephan3077 luckily my Japanese friends have helped, and most Japanese will slow when politely asking if they can repeat slowly. But however my vocabulary doesnt stretch to discussing science and philosophy etc.
Better eatch tv shows or anime to get the pace thing under your wing.
@@geekexmachina Same. Also used to frequent a japanese study group but ever since working shifts and also every other weekend its impossible to attend regularly so I rather save the money and study by myself on days off work :c
@@geekexmachina but when you watch tv shows, listen to podcast, their natural speed is very fast. This is also where I find japanese difficult.
I've started only watching your videos without subtitles as my daily practice. Thank you so much for the support and the consistent method of describing topics well. I appreciate you!
I've been studying Japanese for over two years now even though I understand the grammar, know a lot of vocabulary, particles, verb conjugation and everything else I still struggle way too much when creating sentences longer than 5 words.
As a native in Portuguese and Fluent English speaker I know exactly why. It's not just because japanese is a different language compared to latin and germanic languages it's actually because japanese speakers think about how communication works completely different from these other languages i mentioned, my japanese skills only peak when I forget about how i think communication should work and start to imagine like a japanese speaker and how he would think about communication.
If you get too fixated with direct 1:1 translations between japanese and your main language you'll just get lost
i might need to change my mindset in studying languages, both japanese and french. Thanks as always Hitoki-san!😊
Well, I can speak French fluently so if you agree, I can help you a tiny bit with some grammatical rules and communication
Thank you so much for these videos! Your captions are done correctly, using the built in caption tool, and you are so kind and provide Japanese and english captions. I wish more people did captions like yours, even the videos that have nothing to do with language learning! Using the caption feature means I can change the font size and colors, so it’s very easy to read. Thank you for your hard work!
This really motivated me a lot! I study Japanese at university and I find it quite hard to be resolute in my speaking skills.
Also, side note, the Italian subtitles with the Japanese ones together were so useful for this video!! ✨✨
I super agree with point 3, you just gotta give up English to practice as much Japanese as possible!!
I also agree that people who just study grammar on their own won’t get fluent, but i also find a lot of people expect fluency from a tiny bit of studying and watching anime. At the end of the day you still gotta put in the study hours imo〜
I mean, watching anime does help you, if you’re using Japanese subtitles.
Hitoki, thanks for the helpful video!
Very helpful. Thank you!
Thank you for the good tips and points to consider.

I get nervous when i try to speak with native speakers because i get nervous speaking in their language with a broken grammar😥
Thats why i just talk to myself 😂
same
Just think about if someone learning your native language spoke to you brokenly. Would you mentally shame them? Think it's weird? Or would you understand they're studying hard and try to talk to them!? :)
Comecei a estudar japonês hoje (aprendendo o hiragana) espero chegar a fluência uma dia, seus vídeos apareceram para mim na hora certa!
素晴らしい動画です。ありがとうございます先生。
オノマップさんの動画のおかげでもっと日本語で話せます。
ありがとうございます!
just discovered your channel today and immediately subscribed!!! it's really helpful to me as i've always have this unmotivated phase everytime i wanted to learn a language :D I'll make sure to do the tips you've give from this video! thank you so much!!
Point 1 is so true!
I really thought I had to memorise all the grammar points before I start practicing how to speak but I’m really quite dumb(I can’t just study like this. I learned my times tables through songs when I was a child and I still recite them by singing the songs)
I’ve realised I don’t remember what I’m supposed to say. (And I’m only like just over a month in, it’s only the basics of the basics)
I’m self learning as I’m doing my degree and there are other things I need to remember. This makes it really tough to apply what I learn.
Regarding point 2, I was so so so scared of burdening people since I’m such a beginner. I’m really quite thankful for my exchange partner on Hellotalk who didn’t mind taking some time off to do a language exchange and even run through the basics so I’ll be on my first call tomorrow 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻
Oh this was a nice video. good luck everyone learning out there and hello from finland 🎉
Gracias por los consejos!😊😊
I definitely fall into category number 1 and 2. I watched this video without subtitles and had no problem understanding it, but I most likely wouldn't be able to have a conversation about it. My listening level is pretty damn god, but my speaking level is still very much "beginner." I'm more focused on learning Korean right now because I actually have someone to practice it with, but I'm going to take these tips and apply it to learning Korean, and not be afraid to start speaking immediately!
We learned ‘como se dice __ en español’ right away in school and it always made remembering the Spanish words easier. Great tips, thank you!
Yayyy another onomappu video 嬉しいわ

すごいな忠告だと思いますよね。よくこんな役に立つの動画を作っていたのはありがとうございます
I felt really stuck when learning with textbooks such as Genki. They bombard you with grammar but I don't know how to practice it after that. You have some excersices on the book but it's not enough to imprint it in your mind.
Now I'm trying with the Pimsleur method and I'm drilling day-to-day conversations in my mind so at least I have some leeway when speaking. I'm finding it quite useful, and I just change the formal speech with informal speech and search on google how some sentences are constructed
話し方が特徴的で好きです👍
Tienes la razón por completo en las ideas que expones en este video! Me encantaría que pudiéramos practicar tu español al mismo tiempo que mi Japonés. Hace unos meses, recibimos en mi casa a una japonesa de Fukuoka y me ayudó muchísimo a mejorar mi nivel de conversación porque tuve que forzarme a explicar mi idioma natal en japonés y muchas veces tuve que comunicarme a través de señalamientos, aunque todavía me falta muchísimo gracias a que conviví con ella mejoré muchísimo y me encantaría volver a intentarlo contigo!
Kudos to you, your story perfectly shows that there is nothing impossible, btw the approach seems so familiar to me as I try to wrap my brain into the language net. Tu historia me ayudó un poco mejorar mi lectura de español, gracias))
This is actually true especially if you are reading the nihongo book recommended by those who study n5 and above. I found one week of actual conversation with my japanese friends (online) is effective than my months of studying alone. Thank you ono!!
That may explain why I'm still stuck in N4~N3, the grammar gets more nuanced and I start to feel like applying it on phrases apparently disconnected from context isn't enough anymore. I'm trying to keep reading stuff in Japanese, for instance, so I think I get a better grasp on how the language is really used. From my experience, grammar books usually do little in that aspect, you really have to go out there and practice with someone else until the grammar point gets stuck in your head. Also true for vocabulary. That was particularly why I learned English quite well, talking to people, as troublesome as it is sometimes, is indeed the thing to go for.
Thank you so much 😊 this was so useful. I will sign up for language exchange 😭 talking to myself and studying by myself have indeed become boring
Love your video. I was trying to find a video that is able to improve my listening skill. Some podcast is a little advance for my level. Yours is just nice. I once heard from somewhere, the easiest way to learn a language is to speak to the person who you are interested in/attracted to. That person was able to master the language in 6months (yes, master it) My understanding is that we need to put ourselves into the environment in order to master a language because we are forced to speak the language. We all should know that what is learned from textbooks is different from actual daily conversation.
I have a double whammy against me when I speak. Even in English, I have a hard time understanding what people are saying sometimes, and I don't like my voice. So I don't want to talk out loud unless I have to, and I'll hear something and be unsure what exactly the person said in the first place. Having a conversation is hard and answering is hard. But I don't want to give up on learning other languages, especially Japanese. But maybe I'll learn sign language next and get around both issues ^^;
這部影片讓我更意識到了自已的問題~謝謝你
Having social anxiety and being anti-social sucks... But some of these comments and videos help. I'll try singing, talking to myself, etc. I'm still pretty early in my learning process, but I feel happy that I was at least picking up a few sentences here and there in this video. Plus, your body language helped a ton.
このアドバイスはいいことだと思います。私も４年間ぐらい日本語を教科書で一人で勉強しても、会話ができませんでした。それから、日本語しか話さないところとかに入って無理矢理に日本語で話さないといけませんでした。最初から難しかったですけど、（あとはまだ間違えています）、だんだｎ日本語で会話するようになりました。これからも頑張りますね
What a really good explanation. I already learn Japanese 2 years and now in N3 area, but still I don’t have courage to say things in Japanese. Maybe I should try by doing start from me
言い方と教え方よくわかりやすい！
i do the same . i learnt french and English at school but i'd always practice talking to myself and singing different songs it helps me more memorize words
面白い動画でした。
it is really so much fun to practice with other people. i draw sometimes, and what i've taken to doing is making comics, and then trying to translate the dialogue into japanese by myself or with friends. just learning by app, or reading, or watching movies, or playing games won't help you hone your skill !
i understood most parts of the intro since i was guessing what you were saying based on the words i understood aswell as grammar rules
ありがとうございます❤
I just wanted to say that, this video made my day, i understood everything even if I can't repeat it word by word I did understand it thank you for the video and thank you for motivating me

That's great advice! However, I'm WAAAAAAY too scared to talk to people in Japanese, even if it's just writing. I'm mortified by the idea. I always hate the fact that I can't express myself properly, and that I look like an idiot. Maybe I just detest that I'm not skilled at what I'm doing. This is super dumb, and I have to break this inner barrier. I mean, I also was able to speak English at one point, even though it took me a long time. Only when I became proficient at reading and listening, I felt confident enough to communicate with it. But even then it was still a huge struggle in the beginning. For Japanese I really need to change my attitude, or I fear I'll never reach a useful level of proficiency...
Japanese people are amazing and they are sincerely impressed and grateful even when you can speak only a little Japanese. So they'll always encourage you, always! I think one way to look at it would be, yes, I'm speaking like cr*p but at least I'm having fun learning new words in a language I love.
I found that it helps if you practice with a Japanese person speaking English, so you can switch. You can ask them to talk back in Japanese as much as possible, so you can hear them speak. When you hear the nouns and subjects of what you're talking about it gets much easier to get into the conversation, and easier to talk back in Japanese. And even if you get most particles and grammar points wrong, if you just say words with a verb in the direction of what you want to say, it is already a great exercise to actively remember vocabulary and train your mind to start thinking in that language. And then if there is a specific word or sentence pattern you don't understand you can ask them to say it in English, which is very helpful.
I mean most people aren‘t idiots, they will understand that you‘re new and not proficient. If you meet an idiot that laughs at you or something like that, just move on to a decent human being as language partner.
It's worth remembering that Japanese is a niche language, in that there's only ONE country on earth where the language is spoken. Japanese people are often baffled why you'd even choose to learn Japanese. Then you tell them you love the culture, and then they feel genuinely flattered. So if you speak Crapanese, they're just impressed and will try to flex some random English words at you.
そういう感じが怖いけど、話すしかないだろう？
ひとき先生 congratulations for your great work。。Felicitaciones...。がんばりますっ！
Oh man, so me.
I can watch this video without subtitles but couldn't hope to hold a conversation at any level approaching that for a long time yet.
What you say is true though, in English teaching theory there's a lot of discussion around 'negotiating meaning' as an incredibly important aspect of language learning, and a lot of us miss that when we're sat in our darkened rooms analysing grammar.
初めて動画見ましたんだけど凄く良い話ですね！僕もオノマップさんみたいな会国語実力がなりたいんだからもっと頑張ります－

I enjoy every video and they are all great and informative. I also get distracted thinking that "Hitoki has double jointed fingers" 🤣🤣
:D Ahhh the adorable english you speak in this!
Thank you
I actually turned off the subtitles for this because i wanna practice if i can still understand Japanese with videos where people speak japanese. I found out that i cant understand japanese from audios but cant understand japanese in words and letters so im currently studying japanese by listening to audios or videos that are in Japanese while trying to learn the alphabet and basic japanese conversation i cant say i understood everything but i do understand what you were talking about and saying in the video
Thank you for your suggestion. I am interested in learning Japanese but still cannot speak. I will try adopting your idea.❤. Thanks👍👏🏻🎉🥰
I think reading and writing, we can think, but listening and speaking is a "feeling" skill, let it flow in our head, then imitate :D
I am so so so so so so glad I found you. Litterally exactly my problem. Over 10 years and still nada. And all these youtubers aren't helping. They only include English or Japanese subititles. One or the other. But it's just not enough. You have to do it this way. It's the only way for some of us to learn. And even English version of the Japanese words would be nice too
If only I can understand Nihongo well then I'll be glad to help you in Filipino subtitles, well gladly most of the us can speak/understand English. By the way, thank you so much for always showing us new things while you were just sitting in your room haha
Esse vídeo apareceu para mim, na melhor hora possível, eu faço faculdade de japonês e me sinto presa, eu até entendo, mas não sei responder, me sinto frustada de verdade, mas desistir não é uma opção, bora estudar e praticar!
this video motivated me to make more beautiful video 🙆
Your facial expiration and Body language is so much Help full to understand and memorise japanese language. 🙂🙂
I love the way you sound speaking Japanese.
03:32 Same. I start out by learning the language, its structures, grammar, common expressions, and some extent of practical vocabulary that applies to my daily life and my interests. THEN I begin to try to form sentences to describe what I'm doing in my daily life while going about my routines, look up any words I have forgotten or have yet to learn. Once describing my daily life becomes easier, I move on to THINKING in said language (I limit myself to the vocabulary of that specific language), as a casual "game of daily life". NOTE: I take breaks from this "game" when I interact with strangers.
When I have interacted with my surroundings, I try to think of ways to describe what this interaction was like and how the conversation may have sounded like in the foreign language I'm attempting to learn.
Little by little, a few words a day (or one completely new sentence a day), through revision and challenging myself day by day, I learn a little more.
You are so cute and funny when it comes to make the video lol, 🤣🤣🤣🤭
So fun yet helpful to me.. thank you🥳🥳
Im currently, taking Japnese Literature on my University and damn im so thankfull my school has a lesson for speech every week, not just vocabularies, listenings and reading, and to add to that I joined a Kaiwa club where there's actually natives there so no matter how confuse you get, you're just gonna have to use what u can to speak to them, and as long as u tried, in my experience they'd try to understand and even help you get through what you want to say XDD
The "learn the grammar first" strategy really only works for people who have a background in linguistics in my opinion. For example if in Korean, Mandarin, and Japanese particles/ suffixes mark verb aspect, knowing what those are and how they are used lets you plug the particles into sentences very easily. If you don't know what those are though, the various uses could be much more confusing and it could be difficult to remember all the particles.
i always wonder how to say "how do you say ___ in japanese" so when i saw 6:49 i thought to myself "that's it?? it was that easy??" i didn't expect it to be so easy i could've been asking myself that question months ago😭
everything aside your english is very good dude
LOL, I can totally relate. I studied French and Chinese but I cannot have a conversation and it’s still hard to understand! 🤦♀️. I going to start learning Japanese. Let’s see how I do. I shall practice with my sister. Her Japanese is not too bad. She was my translator on our trip to Japan.
when I was at high school the teacher speak with classmates in english, the first year I was think "she's crazy I don't understand nothing😩"but after 2 years, I understand a lot of the lessons and I speak in english text; in the end I think "thanks teacher!".
I speak the first time out the school after 3 or 4 years, their are from Holland and their speak German, but I don't know the German and their don't know italian 😆, we are speak in english!
I used now (your) this method for english and japanese :)
