YOU EXPLAIN SO WELL AND I LOVE UR EXAMPLES TYSM YOU MAKE THE BEST VIDEOS ON GENKI
Thank you! I'm happy to hear they are helping.
Your videos are single-handedly saving my midterm grades just wanted to let you know
I'm happy to hear that they are helping! Keep it up! =)
I usually never leave comments on UA-cam videos, but I just had to let you know how much of an absolute legend you are for making these videos. I almost feel guilty that I get to watch these for free lol. Thank you!
I'm happy to hear that you are finding them useful! Thank you for watching. =)
I am so glad that you have made these weekly videos, it makes it so easy to work with the Genki books
I'm happy to hear that! Thank you for watching!
Chap 7 let's do this! I'm on day 55 of learning Japanese and currently know 205 Kanji (5 new ones a day from Remembering the Kanji.) I do about 45-60 mins of Anki a day to help with vocab and ToKini Andy teaches the grammar. By the time I look at a new chapter in the Genki textbook it feels like a final review before I'm ready to move on or play around in the workbook a bit 😄
How is your japanese now which level are you at?
@@xq_q0045 Still improving, thanks for asking. I finished the first RTK book so I have 2200 Kanji in my Anki deck and am only part way through RTK2. Adding 5 new ones a day was a challenge and at one point it was taking me 3-4 hours each day just to do my Kanji studying. Once I finished the book it scaled down a lot though. I probably am ready to start my Genki 2 book but I still don't feel like i've mastered the material in the first one.
@@Omni0404 yo keep going you are really doing a great job
😊😊😊😊😊😊😊😊ĺlll😊😊
Update?
Thanks. I think the condensed version of these broadcasts is better suited for me. I appreciate the time and effort you put into these. Reviewing previous lessons and breaking down Genki has been extremely helpful in learning Japanese. I can't wait for lesson 8.
I'm happy to hear that! I think that the condensed versions are definitely better if watching after the fact. A lot less erroneous information! ;-)
Thank you for watching!
I was so sad that you didn't play the song again at the end of the previous lesson. Hearing it again here made up for it! Your singing is quite good too.
It's crazy how much easier to understand the lessons become just through keeping your videos in the background while I'm working out, travelling or otherwise out and about. They're a real godsend. Thanks again for doing them!
Your videos have been the best reviews for me because you include the conversations. Thank you so much!
I love the extra information you throw in and also the informal expressions you teach. So useful!
What the. Why do I just discover this?? Thank you @ToKini Andy for these videos! It makes me going through Genki easier 🙌
thank you for this lesson! I was struggling with this Genki unit but your explanations were very helpful!
These videos are really helping me with class, thanks so much
I love listening to you teaching and speaking japanese. Your explanation really help me. Thank You
Thankyou ! These lessons are so helpful
Your videos are so great. I know a few people taking courses at University and they're missing a lot of what you teach, because of the way genki "teaches" grammar points, irregulars, etc.
I'm learning really fast, thanks to you, and avoiding a lot of pitfalls. Spreading your videos around as much as I can. Gf and I are subscribing to your patreon right now!
Thank you!! I appreciate the feedback, sharing, and that you are considering the Patreon! ☺️
Thanks for the help! I’m taking my Chapter 7 test today in class and this was perfect for last-minute review.
thank you so much, yur videos make my Japanese studying more easily
Thank you so much! I was just struggling with this for so long and now I'm able to understand! I will follow you and your method from now on, you gave me such a BIG help!
ありがとうございます！
I'm happy to hear that they are helping!
Thank you for watching!
I don't think you understand how much of a life saver this video is. I am currently taking a japanese summer 2 class at my uni and we are covering 6 chapters in 6 weeks and it is essentially self taught. I was sooooo confused and then I came across your video a channel, your video was a life saver
These videos are an incredible resource. Thank you so much!
They really should be packaged with the Genki book. (Then again the book didn't get the *same* song stuck in my head for 2 chapters in a row)
Thank you so much for making these, you explain these really well
I'm glad you are finding them useful. Thank you for watching!
Thank you so much. Really appreciate your help on these books. It makes the lessons much clearer after going though the chapter and is helping me improve my grammar!
I'm happy to hear that you are finding them helpful! Thank you for watching. =)
Really enjoyed the edited review! Nice work, Andy! (Keckles)
Thank you!
Thank you my good sir, these are helpful and always enjoyable.. 楽しかったですね
よかったです！
Thank you for watching!
Love these videos ❤
I cannot tell you how much this is appreicated! Your methodology is outstanding. You include humor, you break down the phrases with color coding, and I really like how you read them slowly a couple of times before speeding up and then explaining. You have a great talent for this, and I'm sure that your Japanese students love your personality and teaching style.

Thanks Andy
Listening to your series while reviewing N5-N3 before visiting Japan, so your Hatsune Miku て form song was such a cute surprise!
I love you bro this is so helpful
Thank you for this! Keep up the great work ))
Thank you for watching!
this series is the sole reason i passed my A1 exam!!! thanks!!!
that very helpful,ありがとう
Thank you. I'm happy to hear that. =)
THANK U SMSM T-T i have short term memory and this is suuupper perfect for revising
お疲れ様でした
I find that descriving physical feautures with の comes out far more naturally for me.
Thank you
I wish you were my Japanese teacher, you are awesome!!!!!
I can be! Here on UA-cam at least! =)
Man you can sing! You did the harmonies and everything, are you like a singer in your spare time? Probs all the karaoke practice haha
Thank you so much!
You're welcome. Thank you for watching!

Thank you sir. Very helpful to someone drowning in that first year of 'WTF' is all this. Great.
ありがとう
Thank you for these lessons.
Thanks for well-explained video. Question, what if I do want to say someone is going or coming, how do I use it with te-iru form? For ongoing uses of iku and kuru, instead of changing states.
このレッスンはいいよ。
Andy is a good look’n; the beard is legit
Please tell me this was supposed to be a Fist of the North Star reference at the second conversation sentence lol
もう、来ているよ
なに！？
had a bit of a laugh when I saw that.
Great video as always, thank you!
Thank you for watching! I'm happy you think so. =)
Hi Andy-san,
質問があります。
I'm just confuse how I will use the 'が ' particle or but in describing on two people like in the genki book.
Ex: Noriko is skinny, but Yasuo is overweight.
Should I use the te-form for the verbs
助けてください😆
PS: Your contents are so helpful
haha love the singing XD
Hello! I have a question about using ている . Is it possible to use 変身(へんしん)する as a change in state usage with ている form?
For example, if the sentence is “The little girl transforms into a bird” , should I say “その少女はとりに変身しでいます。” ( In this context, transform showed the change in state from the little girl)?
can you do the IRODORI as well?
9:17 really got me😂
Hi Andy! I have a question. At 35:15, the sentence is よ人でゲームをします。Why not use the と particle with よ人 instead of で? Could it be interchangeable in this instance? Or would that convey something else? Love your videos btw! :)
Thank you for watching Nikki!
So here's the main difference.
4人とゲームをします = I play a game with 4 people (there are 5 people total)
4人でゲームをします = We play a game with 4 people (there are 4 people total)
You could also maybe translate sentence two as "We play a 4 person game"
と does not include yourself, in the number, で does.
@@ToKiniAndy Ah, thank you so much for the clarification!
16:20 sega mijikai - Do you use 'sega' with 'mijikai'?
The nose thing always threw me off when I first met my wife (Japanese) and it makes sense now! She would often complain about her nose being flat, while I was always like your nose is fine! What is the big deal?
食べ物を買いに行った!
Hi Andy! So would this be correct if I want to say “I went to by food.”? Also I know the more polite form would be 行きました
Sure, that would work as well. =)
Hi Andy/Yuki, I have a question.
The frase(パーチィは賑やかで、楽しかった) why the で particle is being used here, end why notくて?
Thanks for answering me. :)
Hi Andrew,
Thanks for watching.
賑やか is a な adjective. くて is only for い adjectives. ☺️
な adjectives take で when you want to connect them to second clauses.
3:31 You are cracking me up hahahahaaa
19:29 もう = already
I heard "te form" as "tapeworm" and now i can't unhear it lol
At 12:15... where did i miss changing the け to い for 開ける and つける?!? What about 受ける？
I don’t understand the te form for nouns, what’s the difference with « to » ?
I have a question about the usage of the negative form of the conjugation “ている“ and i would really appreciate it if you could answer it :)
To express the idea of being married, we use “Xさんは けっこんしています”, which gives the idea of result of change. But if we wanna say that someone is not married, so in other words that the result of change of this action doesn’t exist, do we say “Xさんは けっこんしていません“ or do we simply express it with “Xさんは けっこんしません“ ?
I hope the question is understandable, English is not my first language🙈
through the dialog portions, I feel like Andy really likes beer or alcohol. Beer or alcohol always appears in the dialog somehow..
i ll dig into the reason of all those te forme for noums or adjectives.
makes no sense to me, maybe because i 'm french i don't know
At minute 15, on the first sentence, is it supposed to be 'hajimateiru'? isn't it 'hajiMEteiru'? I can't find any conjugation where 'me' changes to 'ma', is this a typo?
Andy, can I ask you something? When I will finish Genki 1 and 2, what shall I do? What books will I have to buy?
I'm not sure what I'm going to be covering after Genki 2 yet. I have to check out some books. I'll throw up a review when I get a chance to do so! Sorry I don't have a better answer.
@@ToKiniAndy Maybe learning the kanji by James Heisig
Can't we put a は particle after おかあさん in the following sentence instead of the particle が:
おかあさんがゆうごはんをつくっています. I'm confused about when to use either.
So for the types of verbs (activities in progress vs result of change), is this breakdown correct?:
Tom went to America -vs- Tom is in America -vs- Tom will go to America
トムさんはアメリカに行きました。－VSー トムさんはアメリカに行っています。－VSー トムさんはアメリカに行きます。
Is this correct? The differentiation of the first two feels confusing to me haha, not gonna lie. This verb type thing has been really stumping me.
I am a little confused about the Kanji you use for fast. I thought it is 速. And the one you use 早 means early. Those two words are confusing anyhow, as they sound the same. Can someone help me with this and explain it?
made it to 7
Question
家は古くてきれいではありませんでした
Is me conjugating the last adjective meaning that the house was BOTH, NOT OLD AND NOT CLEAN? or is it just talking about the NOT CLEAN part
I’m trying to say that the house was old and not clean
Thanks
I actually never thought about it, can I have a positive AND negative and use くて?
Your sentence means it was old, and not clean.
And yes, you can. =)
@@ToKiniAndy I always thought that you had to use けど for a positive and negative in a sentence
Example
日本語は難しいけど楽しい
Also
I listen to a lot of Japanese music. I can’t wait to understand what’s being said one day
Hi I’m done with lesson 7 but I’m supposed to make sentences with the
Come and do something page of Genki
I’m trying to say
I went and played games at my friends house.
I know that you use the verb する with games but would you happen to know what the mass verb stem is of that?
Idk if my brain shut off or if it’s just し て
Correct. The て form of する is して
@@ToKiniAndy wouldn’t I have to use the masu verb stem here though
For
Location Ni object wo masu verbstem Ni iku kuru kaeru
I am saying that I went to play games at my friends house
But you do a game in Japanese
So I would assume that I’d say
友達の家にゲームをしてに行きました
For some reason the して part doesn’t sound right
@@Nathan-sq9xv ah I see. Yeah, the stem is し.
友達の家でゲームをしにいった。
Or
しにいきました
@@ToKiniAndy
For real? The masuverb stem of Suru is shi?
Ohhhh you’re right
Cuz it’s します and you cut the ます
Ok, thank you sir
Yay singing :3
Hi Andy! I saw these recommended on the learn Japanese reddit! Super helpful! Thank you! I have two questions.
Question 1:
At 23:09 you give 3 examples of using the て form to combine adjectives. Your last example is past tense ( 面白くて、楽しかった). Example 2 is present tense, but you said you could make it past tense by saying 赤くて、すごくでした.
Here's my question. Why does example 3 use かった but example 2 used でした? Can you use either for example two or three? Or do you have to use かった for i-adjectives and でした for nouns?
Question 2:
I'm just watching your no chat videos, I don't have the genki book. How much am I missing out on by not using the book? Are the exercises helpful? or is it more useful to get through the grammar and then start diving into reading and listening graded readers, easy material, etc? I know that you might not be able to answer this question, because I think in a previous video I heard you say that you only started using genki after you started doing other stuff, and used genki to fill in the gaps of knowledge that you had.
Anyway, thank you so much for making these and for your time. 😊
Hi Sarah, thanks for stopping by.
Q1: If I said すごくでした then I was wrong. It should be すごかった(です)
Q2: I think you can cover a lot of what is in the book by just following along with these videos, and finding exercises to do online. Exercises ARE definitely helpful though, and having the book to solidify your understanding helps for some people. There are also extra practice videos over on the Patreon if that's something you're inclined to check out, but I know budgets are tight these days! =)
Everything you can do helps, but something is better than nothing, so if you understand a point from these videos, don't feel like you NEED the book. =)
Thank you for watching!
@@ToKiniAndy thank you!
@@ToKiniAndy whoops. I got your words mixed up. You said 素敵でした not すごくでした。 Do you use でした for na-adjectives?
@@sarahr.3241 For the past tense of na-adjectives, yes. You will use でした. If it comes first you use で to connect it to the next part. ☺️
@@ToKiniAndy I'm a bit confused. In the video you said すてき not すごく. Would the past tense then be すてきかった? Thanks.
12:21 is the conjugation of verb is right ? The “つけます” why is it conjugate to “ついている”
Plain verb つける
Hi, if "to open" is akeru, why is the te form in the example aite instead of akete? The window is open
あける is “to open” and あく is “to be open”. The て form of あく is あいて 😊
@@ToKiniAndy Arigato goziamashita
Great stuff, Andy & partner. really appreciate you making sense of genki. I am not sure you still follow up with comments after 2 / 3 years, but I have a question on the te-iru form, for the example you propose "the window is open", I appreciate you may not be answering specific requests here, but just in case it helps shape your future lessons or content.
So you are reading it as "mado-ga aite imasu" (time stamp is 12:28) and I am so confused... the first lesson I ever learned was a guy going through passport control at the airport and being asked to open his suitcase with a simple sentence that stuck in my brain ever since " suitsucase-o akete kudasai", hence I hope you seem my confusion:
why is the reading for opening a suitcase or opening the window different?
is it because one is modifying an object (the suitcase), while the other one modifies the main subject of the sentence?
Also, Google Translate (I know it ain't perfect), reads the same kanji as HIRAITE (with the dictionary form being HIRAKU)...why oh lord, why...!?? :-) -instinctively I would have read it as "madoga akete imasu"
Thanks for your time !
You’ll learn about this in later lessons, but these are actually different verbs.
あける is a transitive verb (an actor acts on an object), and あく is an intransitive verb (describes a state).
あいている the window IS (in the state of being) open. This is a conjugation of あく not あける, which is what was used when you were asked to open your suitcase.
Hope that makes sense.
@@ToKiniAndy you are so fast responding !! Thanks it all makes a bit more sense now. :-)
So let me get this straight
と is used to connect 2 nouns in a sentence (sometimes it means with)
くて is used to connect 2 adjectives (I’m assuming)
Why am I using で to connect 2 nouns if that is the job of the particle と
These are used in different situations.
と is used for "A dog and a cat." and is ONLY used for nouns. It CAN NOT be used as a conjunction
くて is used for adjectives in a similar method, AND as a conjunction.
で can be used as a conjunction, and with な adjectives as well.
@@ToKiniAndy thank you
So you can actually straight up have a random conversation with people in Japanese? That’s cool
@@ToKiniAndy I seriously can’t wait to get your Patreon. The only studying I have is me making random sentences and the Genki book. I graduate high school in 54 days. I can be full time Japanese studying starting then, plus your Patreon
@@Nathan-sq9xv Me? Most of my "real life" day to day interactions are in Japanese. So, yes. Heh
I hope that you'll find the Patreon helpful. You may want to consider waiting a few extra weeks though, because I may end up releasing everything on a different platform that is easier to navigate soon.
@@ToKiniAndy
I find it cool that you’re fluent in Japanese. I hope to be someday.
All right sure (about the Patreon). I plan on attending Japanese language school when I get there. I just want to be able to be, what’s the word, “intermediate” speaking, writing and reading by the time that I get there. Then I obviously want to be trilingual when I’ll be at school (I’m fluent in English and French cuz I live in Canada, it’s why I said “trilingual”).
Anyways, thanks
Thanks
Thank you so much Gery! As I mentioned last time, we really do appreciate the support.
Does it work if I say ”図書館に勉強しに行く”？HB "僕の猫を遊びに行ける”？
Your first sentence works, but I'm not sure what you're trying to say in the second sentence. Sorry!
Wait I dunno if anyone will see this but for Te form of nouns so would something like “私は日本人で、アメリカ人です。”?
I noticed that you used transitive and intransitive verbs for the results of a past change. Is there a reason?
Some verbs are intransitive (don't require an object), some are transitive (require an object). There's nothing much to cover really. The only thing that is covered (in Genki 2) is the fact that some verbs which are intransitive look like other transitive verbs. There's no rule or anything, you just have to learn them as separate verbs.
@@ToKiniAndy so it’s a matter of memorization. Ok thank you
The only reason I ask is because 開ける is to open but then I saw that you used 開いています for “the window is open”
@@Nathan-sq9xv Right. Because 開ける is transitive, there has to be an object and an actor (someone OPENS the window). 開く, being intransitive, is what you would have to do to describe the state of being of being open (the window IS open). You couldn't use 開ける for that, because there is no action involved with states of being. Kind of a complicated explanation, but I hope that makes sense.
@@ToKiniAndy yes, thank you
Is there a specific way to get from the transit form to the intransitive form or not at all
That is the last thing I don’t understand. I understand when you use transitive vs intransitive, but how do you know what the intransitive verb is? Is it just like any other verb that you memorize ?
Shouldn’t “the tv is on” be... テレビをついてある instead of いる ? or is it because you (a loving thing) turned the tv on? Like the bus driver thing?
つく is an intransitive verb, so てある can't be used with it. If you want to say "I turned on the TV (in prep for something) already you would use つける. つけてある.
For "The TV IS on." ついている
12:13
30:39
I'm confused about "から." I thought it was for "because...," but you put it in "うしろから" to mean "from behind"? What is から?
It's both. They are technically probably two different words though. ☺️
@@ToKiniAndy Okay, thank you! :)
'Hana ga takai' is a compliment??? 😂😂😂
Are you sure your Japanese friends didn't just tell you this so that they can call you 'big nose' without you getting upset?!
If someone tells me ’聞いて下さい’、Can you say back '聞いてるよ！’ ？
Yes, you can. Though it may sound a little rough. You certainly can though. =)
HAPPYを着ている人♡
しつもんはどこですか？ :(
The te-iru lesson was really frustrating to me. I was hoping for a more in-depth explaination of the 2 "verb types" genki suddenly brought up. Especially because there are so many examples that can belong to both categories. You even mentioned it but didnt go into detail why its even important to make that distinction (except for obvious examples like kekkon suru) or how you can express one or the other with the ambigious verbs like suru, suwaru or neru.
それは"カラオケで歌うに行く"。じゃない? Coz an action's is being happening
The way you are talking about Ga makes me irritated...
it is literally the SUBJECCT marker... so "andy wa atama ga ookii" you are saying that it is more "accurately" translated as "andy is having a big head" - how can those two things be true at the same itme?
SUBJECT means the acter in the sentence - "Watashi wa koohii ga suki des" - the coffee is the subject of the sentence. Sure it this case its not translatable 1:1 into english (or most other european languages) but still saying that it literally means "I like coffee" is WRONG.. and in "andy wa atama ga ookii" it is literally translated into "As for andy, head is big" - again, his head is the SUBJECT of the sentence. It looks like you are intentionally trying to confuse your students about what "wa" and "ga" actually mean.
I clarified this in a newer video. I clearly didn't have my head wrapped around it back then..
Chill. 😥
@@ToKiniAndy sorry, i just vent my frustration whenever i see this - please do not take this personally, perhaps i should not get unreasonably angry at words of well meaning people.
As i was starting out i was really confused about what those particles actually did. Its not difficult at all once it gets explained clearly, but in the beginning, the way most textbooks "explained" it really hurt me.
i didnt see your explanation video since im new to your channel.. i just went through the genki 1 videos to brush up on the easy stuff.
