"Do you find it hard to express your feelings in you target language?"
Me: I find it hard to express my feelings in my native language. Lol.
Hahaha me too
Same
Lol
actually, there’s an explanation to why we can express feelings easier in our second language. shortly, it happens because of the connection to our native language and our experience
Underrated 😂
Her: change the language on your device
Me: *changes the language to korean*
My device: so you have chosen death?
i love your profile picture and name hahaha borahae
@@soe_936 thank you 💜
Oh relatable.
I once changed my Tablets language to Korean, I pressed home screen button, I WAS SUPER CONFUSED, but good thing I was used to it so not much struggle....BUT I'M NEVER TRYING IT AGAIN.
I changed my device language to Korean this morning but after 2 hours I didn’t know what I was doing and I didn’t want to cause some trouble so I changed it back to English
I changed my language to Japanese, and my dad the next morning was like “Wtf is this? I can’t read that 0-0”

I’m left handed too. I also have learned Japanese, Mandarin, Russian, Spanish as well. Thank you.

And now learning German and self studying Korean 😁💜
Вау! Продолжай в том же духе 💗📚
I have some questions that I hope you don’t mind answering:
So I learned the Russian alphabet (but I’m still working on reading) and now idk what to do exactly. I Tried duolingo but I felt like it doesn’t do much when the language you’re learning has a new alphabet.
Do you have any tips on where to start and how to improve my reading without interacting with natives?
Thank you in advance
@@Moonsapphire419 First of all, hello! I'd like to tell u one thing. In what part of learning you're good or you'd like to learn, in what you're into, like by watching or listening smth 😁 for example, I can learn any language really fast, by watching TV series, dramas or just a video in that language, I've taught myself Turkish by watching turkish dramas with English subtitles, and it's really hard at first but than I could understand what they're talking about by their actions and their intonation when they're talking 😅 I can recommend it to u too 🤗💜

Would it be a little too ambitious to learn:
- Chinese
- Japanese
- Korean
- Spanish
- Italian
😅
No it wouldn't
Just make sure you have time for all of them^^
Nope, it is not an ambitious goal at all. In fact, it is a realistic goal. once you learn one of the Asain languages such as Chinese or Japanese it makes it easier to learn the other time. And, also it reduces the time you acquire the other languages. The same issue applies when you learn a romance Language. For example, if you learn Italian, it will make it either to learn Spanish later. I am currently learning 🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵 Japanese and I can already understand plenty of Mandarin Characters and South Korean vocabulary even though I have not yet touched both South Korean and Mandarin. Also, I am learning French 🇫🇷🇫🇷 and I am at B1 and I can already see plenty of vocabularies in Spanish and Italian.
@@bigfan2452 I'm pretty good at Spanish, I can say a lot of random things and have a conversation and that's certainly made it easier to understand some Italian. I can't wait to start learning the rest 😁
I agree not at all! 😆 I’ve learned that when you study lots of languages that you’re a beginner at, it can be a little hard. But nothing is impossible 💕💕🥰
I believe its up to you. if you dedicate yourself and time to each then anythingis possible.
I'm learning: I am still a beginner in each but i find learning words in more than one language quit interesting and also learning how theyhave some similarities or borrow from another language
Korean
Japanese
Tagalog
Thai
and mandarin.
I suddenly feel proud as a HongKonger-
I can speak
1. Cantonese
2. Mandarin
3. English
4. Guoyu (Taiwanese Accent)
*LOL*
Be always proud! I love Hong Kong even if I’ve have never been there, we here in Europe are always looking out to what’s happening in Hong Kong( the protests for democracy). Never give up for freedom in all its forms, democracy, expression, freedom of press and of ideas. Don’t give up Hong Kong! Europe is with you, on your side! 🇪🇺🤝 🇭🇰 ❤️
@@candycandygirl7433 Yes thanks SO MUCH! We HongKongers have been looking for a path for freedom😣 Let's fight together! Europe fighting!🤗😊😺

I can’t even speak correctly in English and I’m trying to learn Japanese 😭
Psa. I hope your learning is going great keep up the good work!
Same.. I'm not fluent in English but I am studying French and Korean with English lol. Who cares! We can do it!
@@munevverdinc3287 Yes :D
omg same. i think im good in english when it comes to text and writing but when i start speaking, ah no bye. it's hard to practice your english speaking skills (´;︵;`)
@@arin4170 I couldn't agree more.. Actually I started speak with myself and Google asistan İn English. Idk how it went, but I think I can speak faster than old me 😂😂
@@arin4170 Me too! My friend said I sound like I was foreign because of the way I talk
I have a Japanese mom and a Korean dad but I was born in America no tho they are natives and I’m learning both languages I still can’t talk in both, I’m extremely impressed and I’ll try to learn with your techniques, keep going and I’m proud of how far you’ve come
"While I was a beginner I used to write only a few basic sentences about my day...and now paragraphs!"
Me a beginner... can't even write full sentences that match each other lol JEALOUS! I can't wait to just get to that level in the video :O
I can do the simple introductions stuff lol (though I am just fully confident now in hiragana to start tackling katakana)
Same ;-; Like the most I can write is 我是好，我很高兴。That's my diary literally ._."
@@nito575 actually if you want to say I am okay or I am good, you shouldn't use the 是, it's better to say 我很好, 我是好 is used to emphasize instead
I know English and Spanish.
But I really want to learn Japanese and Chinese.
wow im so early! this is perfect bc i just decided to start learning Chinese! also its crazy how much we have in common 😅im studying Japanese, korean and Chinese and we even share the same name 🤭
Woow, woow, it's just shocking.
You have so much in common!
Coincidence? I think yes!
I thought 1 was hard enough. I'm starting japanese at 16 and then moving to japan for grad school. It will be a pretty big advantage for me if I'm already fluent.
moving to japan for grad school? kindly tell me more about it haha
@@kkottii . Pretty much I have so many things I have to do. The main thing is bringing my car to japan. My car is originally from japan, I imported it to the united states.
It's a really nice car so I'm not gonna sell it. So it's coming with me. The funny thing Is I'm getting 2 or 3 of the same car, from japan. So I will literally be bringing my car collection to japan.
Luckily my parents will be paying for my tuition , housing and food. So the only reason for me having a job would be to afford garage storage and parts for my cars.
I love my cars more than anything else.
Now moving on since I live in the united states I have to do a whole thing with the japanese embassy and everything. Luckily it is close to where I live.
So yeah it's pretty hectic. However If I get into wharton I will be going to wharton and then just moving to japan eventually.
Omg this was so helpful! Especially the “shadowing” part. I would always feel really discouraged when I studied Korean because I don’t have a native to speak to, and I felt like I wouldn’t be able to progress. This gave me hope!
Trying to learn Japanese and Korean, and regain my ability to speak French.

im from indonesia, i learn some chinese language. in first, i feel i never can't learn chinese with very good, but i have some motivation from some people. when that time, many person think i never can't and that make me feel bad about my self. some times i think why i learn this? this is unuseless. now i can feel the advantage, i could have many chinese friend, i have translate account and many more. and a few months after my first time learn chinese my parent know about this, but they didn't get mad, they happy cause now they can know that they child are grow up now. i just want to say fighting for you all! don't give up just because a problem, cause you are you, not them..
this is some experience about my first time learning chinese language...
温暖和爱 ，塔尼亚...
Awesome! I’m looking forward the next video!:) Thank you for learning our language 🤗
I am currently studying Chinese Mandarin. I have to say i love this language!!
Hey really I am glad I’ve found you in here.....you are so much source of inspiration and motivation 💕
You Can Also Study Chine, Korean & Japanese By Watching C-Dramas, K-Dramas & Anime.
aren't those the reason why many people actually want to learn those languages in the first place *let's get rid of the subtitles* **continues to watch kdrama**
what websites or apps can i watch these on?
@@sofiarowland2922 viki is great for k-dramas, c-dramas there are many in youtube also.
@@mayurisampathgiri2665 Do you have to pay for viki?
@@sofiarowland2922 Viki is free but u get ads they aren't that long anyway. I have watched most of them and i never have paid though
Thankyou for your videos!! I don’t study languages as a degree but I think it’s so cool. But your tips help me know what to do, even though I’m currently studying Arabic and French, the tips can be used for all languages. I wish you lots of motivation and success 💗💗
Thank you for studying Japanese. I know it's hard to learn a language from another country, but your Japanese is very good!
I'm so thankful to UA-cam actually for recommending your video to me. I had decided to learn Japanese, Korean and Chinese at the same time since I am fast learner and have an ability to learn languages. Yet, I had also such a terrible behaviour which was get bored so easily and I still have unfortunately... but after watching this video, your determination and learning style gave me a strength to try again and continue from where I stayed. That's why I now see that I should not give up or postpone anything. Thank you for helping the others about these issues and I also want to say that your pronunciation is so cute. Thank you so much for your video! :")
Omg-GIRL U HELPED ME TOO MUCH
i am currently learning japanese hehe. i’m at minna no nihongo 2! i’m also fluent in mandarin and english. all the best to everyone learning a new language!
eyyy i just found your channel! it inspires me to learn japanese. thank you and subscribed! love ya honey, we stan educated queen ❤️❤️❤️
your command of tones in chinese is really impressive! i feel that a lot of learners "skip out" on learning that well in the beginning to focus on other things, but i'm glad that you're taking the time to learn the pronunciation so accurately even from the beginning 💗
this is just an idea, but would you ever think about holding language chat rooms over zoom or something for people who are learning a language but don't have someone to practice speaking with? i feel like it would be a fun community building activity on top of the language learning benefits hehe :)
loved it! i’m going to use the tips for learning japanese & korean
Omg thank you! I love this!!!
i'm japanese but, i can't japanese😅
🤣🤣🤣
Lol
So pretty.... Your Japanese hand writing is literally goals... I wish I can write smoothly like that one day. Otherwise thank you for the tips. They are really helpful... Thank you once more
these methods definitely helped when i am not learning when of those languages, learning hindi and dutch ajnd watching these news very much helps!
Nice video! You inspired me to learn Japanese more, thanks.
Wow this motivates me to study more thanks for this.
I really appreciate to you about learning Korean :> I really happy someone learn my language... hehe
Thank you for the great tips :)
Proud to be Malaysian 🤔
I can speak 6 languages
1. Chinese
2. English
3. Malay
4. Cantonese
5. Hakka
6. Korean
I finally found someone that can speak Hakka!!
@@zijingchow9416 what is Hakka if I may ask?
@@Chrryc0la as far as i know something like a Chinese dialect
Oh my am learning all those languages except for English
U know 6 languages omg , I just can speak Cantonese mandarin English, and a bit Spanish
i’ve watched a few channels similar to yours, but you are the only one that i’ve come across that actually speaks! sure the notes is pretty, but how’s your pronunciation? i’m glad i came across your channel!
I finally had the courage to learn Japanese and it’s not that bad as I thought I do have trouble remembering the characters or syllables but it’s quite fun :) Hope I can reach your level someday 😊
Wow! Great job! 👏🏻👏🏻
you really got brainsss to be doing all three at once!! i learnt basic korean a few years ago and now that im learning japanese i sometimes confuse the korean i remember with the japanese im learning😭
Thanks for sharing tips. I may take for an hour for writing 5 lines journal. You do lot of work in learning, so motivated. PS. I am Thai and learning Japanese as well. :)
Any tips on how to stay motivated? Great video, like always!👑
No no no.. I love everything about you learning those languages 💞
Amazing! Well done!
Hello! I am also learning multiple languages at the same time, but I didn't think there would be books that were bilingual! What an awesome idea!
I mean watching series is basically the help of native speakers 😜 but I think it's a little sad because after all the interaction is the most fun part of learning a language to me! Lucky to be living in a dorm so native speakers all over the place I can practice with🥰 awesome video anyway! Thanks for sharing your tips✨☺️
저도 똑같이 한국어 중국어 일본어 다~~ 잘하고 싶어요ㅠㅠ 우리 모두 다 같이 홧잉 합시당~!!!
With this video u have got a new subscriber!😊💗
thank you for the tips
i already know all these but this made me feel motivated to do em
I’m so glad 😃☺️
Generally, Arabic numerals are used for horizontal writing, and Chinese numerals are used for vertical writing.
Your Japanese is great! I'm not good at English, so I respect you😍
I’m Japanese.
I was really surprised your Japanese writing speaking and reading skills‼️
You’re amazing 😭
おうえんしてます！
I’ll study English more harder.
I'm subscribed to your channel , your amazing!! Your videos are making motivation to study new languages espacially Japanese!! 🥺✨💜🖤❤️❤️
Edit: your voice is sooo relaxing!!
Oh wow, seeing that chinese writing order book really brought back memories of young me writing those in school😂I find it to be quite fun as my classmates would all compete to see who finished their homework fastest. On a side note, your chinese pronunciation is quite good, definitely heading in the right direction, keep up the good work and good luck!!👍💖😆
*Edit*
Maybe you've already figured out how to say the word but I'll say it anyway in case you haven't, the word 习 at around 9:51, you can say it like, 'see' but it's more of a 'shee' with the second tone, hope this helps!
I can speak all three the languages, this remindes me a lot of good memories of me studying them and your hand writing is prettier than mine e swear it's so clear and precise and your pronunciation is re really good for real
How did you learn?
@@fatima_0935 for Chinese, I had classes at school but since I wanted to know more, I studied also by myself and now I'm pretty fluent. Self-studying Chinese motivated me to study Japanese and Korean, always by myself

omfg your accent is amazing in Japanese! I was so shocked i watched you reading it like 3 times omggg
なんでこんなに字が綺麗なの、、、
I have that exact Mandarin/Chinese book! I also have one that lists 2000 words since I have found that a lot of the words are the same, and that the meaning changes depending on your use of the four tones...I’m learning Korean, German and Norwegian/Finnish (I have friends in both Norway and Finland) as well as Mandarin/Chinese!
Thank you for sharing this
You are so intelligent and smart is good the you study language becauses that you can go to other continent
Omg gurl you are legit GOALS I’m struggling with only one language alone and here sis u r learning 3 and still making impressive progress! How do you balance the three languages to not feel confused and how do you basically study for those foreign languages lolll I’m broke and Idk if there are any easy accessible affordable resources to study
Thank you for this video !
Jazz you make me so proud to be your grandmother. 💞
learning languages without translations is the best thing you can do, it can be hard at the start but wasnt it learning our native language? you can do it!
Wow your Japanese writing is so good! 📝
私より字がきれい😚
The hardest thing about learning a east asian language such as Thai you have to keep a steady tone but when speaking more western languages such as Spanish english and french (I meant they are more common in the western than the eastern) you tend to mix tones. . . being east asian I have mastered keeping one tone but growing up in the states my pronunciation is not to great. . .
Amazing video 💜💜
You are amazing you have gave me motivation to learn chinese being a chinese myself
Good job !!
漢字もちゃんと正しく使えててすごいですね…びっくりしました
You are great Jazmin 💗
You always keep me motivated.
I am a French learner and thinking of starting mandarin.
And the thing is that I'm only 11. Is it a great idea to learn languages when school studies grows in its difficulty ⁉️
I really appreciate your accent
This help me a Lot 👍😊
wow thats mark from got7 i was SHOCKED btw youre so good keep it up my fellow birdie
Stroke order is not really important just it makes your kanji look more like a native
3か国語を同時進行で勉強できてるのがとにかくすごい。。
自分ならやろう！って思ってもなかなか続けられないと思う…
I taught myself Japanese to fluency years ago without native speakers or visiting the country and now I'm trying to learn Korean…but somewhere along the way I must have forgotten how I learnt languages when I first started out as its not progressing as much! Maybe I just need to keep at it! 同時に複数の言語を学ぶのは絶対大変と思うが 勉強頑張ってね！

THANK YOU for showing what books you use!!!! im tryna self study mandarin but as an american, its hard to find books rn since i cant go to the library and actually flip through them to make sure theyre good before i commit to purchasing. also, what was the news site u mentioned in the beginning? if i google CCTV i just find a whole lot of information about closed circuit television KSHDJDKS
I'm also learning Korean, Japanese, and Chinese. I wish I could buy books but I have settled with apps instead and bought notebooks for writing down characters. I also have an extra twitter account where I tweet in those languages solely for practice.
I'm using duolingo for the 3 lang with the help of hellochinese and write japanese to learn how the strokes and whole characters are written. 🙂 I'm more focused on korean and chinese right now tho since I find korean easier and more into chinese variety shows. 😅
Good luck to all of us learning and planning to learn new languages. 💖
Your Mandarin is very good! I think you also can learn Cantonese,if you are an English speaker,I think it’s an easy way to learn it, cuz some pronunciations of Cantonese are very similar to English. As a Cantonese and Mandarin speaker, I am recommend you to learn Cantonese 🔥🥺❤️
I’m using these tips because I’m also trying to learn all 3
And wen i hear you speaking Chinese i just wow i dont know what to say but u are like so good
