    Typing in Japanese on your form isn’t difficult. But if you want to write Japanese you need to learn Japanese first.
    So if you want to learn Japanese with me, I can send you some Japanese lessons where I teach you the kind of Japanese that Japanese people actually speak. Click here and subscribe bit.ly/3icChu2

      We might see these as the "same" letter but for a foreign learner there really are two sets of characters to learn. This is somewhat analogous to Hiragana and Katakana.

    I am Japanese and am a young person, but I don't use the typing system. I usually use the Roma Ji Keyboard, it looks like normal English keyboard. Some Japanese use that one, so you don't have to remember the way he explained if you found difficulty.
    However, that one which he explained is the most common way to type on the phone(many elderly folks can't do this though), if you could do this every Japanese will be surprised!!! Please try just a once(^^♪

      I’ve been learning Japanese and I agree that the romaji keyboard is way easier to use, especially since I’m an English speaker. All you have to do is remember the sound of the word and you can type it. I think it’s best at the beginning but using the other keyboard is probably better once you’re more proficient in Japanese (since you should be learning more about moras and becoming intuitive with sentence structure and kanji). The journey has only begun!

      I am Spanish and just now relearning Japanese. The Spanish keyboard is similar to the English one. Personally, I want to avoid the romaji keyboard even if it allows me to type faster as I want to try practicing with the Japanese characters themselves, so I use the keyboard similar to the video. I think it's a better way if you want to get used to writing in Japanese

      Actually it involves in historical reason,hiragana is used for daily spoken language,katakana is used for reading of foreign language like English and for specific name like companies or people's name ,since Japanese borrowed Chinese characters in tang dynasty, kanji is formed,however,since Chinese has many words which are Same in pronunciation but different in tone,while Japanese doesn't have that kind of tones, they have to indicate the words in kanji to prevent confusion

    • @RanmaruRei
      @RanmaruRei 3 роки тому +84

      @@bosco_c6431 there is one more reason and I believe it's more significant. Writing in kanji is shorter, than in kana. In old days writing material (I hope I use right words) was not that cheap. I remember how my native language (Russian) was written in old manuscripts. For instance, instead of Богородица (lit. the Mother of God) in the Bible wrote Б҃ца. And it's just one of the tricks used to save precious space.

      It's actually pretty interesting! The Kanji characters got obviously introduced first, when Japan didn't have its own writing system.
      Since women were not allowed to learn Kanji in the 8th century, they made up their own writing system, Hiragana.
      Men were allowed to learn Kanji in the 8th century but were not always sure about the pronunciation, that's why they invented Katakana, to write it above the Kanji and therefore know how a specific word gets pronounced.
      Nowadays, hiragana is used above a kanji to know its pronunciation, while Katakana is used for foreign words :)

The kanji 人 (if it stands alone its read hito) is btw the kanji for human and the kanji 語 (go) is the one for language. You can add 語 at the end of any country to say the language and 人 to say the are from there. For example, ドイツ人 (doitsujin) means the German human andドイツ語 (doitsugo) means German as the language. So if I say 僕はドイツ人です (boku ha[wa] doitsujin desu) it means "I am German".

    I prefer qwerty keyboard, I'm just so used to that one. Propositions work the same way. Also I have added the hand-writing one. It's actually helpful to learn because:
    a. You need to actually remember characters / you practice writing it
    b. If keyboard can understand what you've written it means your kanji are pretty good.
    And definitely, kanji look good in the anime.
