Kaname talks in Japanese about Japanese food culture, taboos of using chopsticks and some food he found in his bento. Support the channel at: / kanamenaito
I really like the way Kaname-san introduces a carefully selected set of useful Japanese expressions that are used frequently on a daily basis, while he also familiarizes us with Japanese culture.
Are there other double-entendres in here? The only one I know is "okazu" but that might just be bc I'm chronically online and this is just a video about eating a bento
If you look carefully, the table lines up perfectly with the closet. It could very well be a huge Kaname with no legs, eating a huge bento on the floor.
As an American I was surprised to learn that when you go to Canada you’re not supposed to shoot the other customers with your eating guns, so it kinda makes sense. I wonder if the Canadians imported this custom from Japan 🤔
I need to memorize Kaname-san's respect to food speech. I've been eating past the point of being full because the first time I left food, the dining hall staff thought it was because I didn't like the cooking. No, I'm just full! I don't eat a lot! Please let me pick the right amount for myself so I don't waste any! ;-;
I also have a small appetite. I always dread the time the dishes are taken away by the waiter... Wish you could order small, medium and large portions.
Everyone waste food intentionally or not since most food is perishable except fruitcake. Wouldn't worry about people feelings since people will always find something to be offended by.
"Gohan to Okazu" seems like a similar setup to Filipino food as "Kanin at Ulam". Though sometimes it becomes a rule of three, "Kanin, Ulam at Sabaw" (the third term referring to soup, which some claim the rice has to be eaten with as well). I guess those sort of rules of eating plain rice with something else are common sense to many.
I found that watching these videos with headphones (in-ear) has helped me learn so much better than using speakers. Not that you can't use speakers, but its helped me isolate the words and "mora" of what is being said. Recommended!
love how you're diversifying up your content but at the same time still helpful and informative! about to have dinner now, will watch this while eating 😀 ありがとうかなめ先生!
LOVE your humour! Thank you for your interesting teachings too! As I learn Japanese I hope I can memorise your bear story, word for word, to recite at my next meal in Japan!! 🤣🤣🤣😍😍❤
It'll be really great if you can continue making many contents like that. It's not only actally actually interesting but also useful for us who don't really know meaning of some stuff but for their name.
For those who, like me, like to make PDFs here is the English Transcription: Now I'll be eating bento alone. In many cases, a Japanese meal basically consists of rice and okazu. What is okazu? Okazu is something that you eat rice with. So main okazu in this bento is the salmon. This is called salmon saikyouyaki. Saikyouyaki refers to grilled fish that is pickled with miso from Kyoto wich is called saikyou miso. It's really tasty. Well, itadakimasu. Just like how I just ate it, something that you eat with rice is called okazu. Rice and okazu. So, for example, things that you don't eat with rice are not called okazu. For example, is this okazu for rice? It depends on the taste, usually okazu is something that has strong flavor or something that is salty. Let's try it. Yeah, tasty. It's a bit salty. Yeah, this is okazu. For example, people usually don't eat salad with rice, so usually salad is not called okazu. But what is and what's not okazu, that depends on a person. For example, miso soup is not okazu for me. But there are people who eat miso soup with rice, so miso soup could be okazu, depending on the person. Some people say that ramen is okazu for rice. They must be a little funny in the head. Well anyway, in Japanese food culture, rice and okazu are important concepts. Kinpira burdock. Like this, bento with rice and a salted plum in the middle of rice is often called hinomaru bento. Japanese national flag is called hinomaru, this shape looks like the Japanese flag, so it is often called hinomaru bento. There are some taboos when you are having meal in Japan. One is called tatebashi. You stick your chopsticks in the rice like this, doing like this is one of the taboos in Japan. Don't do it. Another one is hashiwatashi. You give someone food using chopsticks. If I say to you ''Wanna eat this?'' and give you food using chopsticks. This is called hashiwatashi, it is also a taboo. I think you'd better avoid doing that when you are eating meal with Japanese people. And another important thing is, you shouldn't stick your chopsticks in people's eyes. That's not good. Personally when I eat stuff like this, I first eat this and then eat rice. But depending on the person, when they eat fish like this, they first put it on the rice, and eat it with rice. Many people do that. Japanese people call rice ''main food''. So for Japanese people, rice or other carbohydrates are the main dish. So, including me, many Japanese people when they have meal, they calculate the amount of rice and okazu. If I finished okazu first, then I won't have okazu that I can eat with rice. So I calculate the amount of okazu and rice when I eat. In my case, there is still natto, so I'm eating while calculating the amount of natto. The finale of this bento is coming. Even though it is a bit sad but I'll finish it. Some people may wonder ''You still have a bit of rice left!'', but that's why I got this natto! Natto is important food for Japanese people. I've heard that Kansai people generally don't like natto much, but I like natto very much. Especially natto with large beans. You put tare on natto. Put soy sauce on tare, then stir it. Stir the natto. This action is called mazeru. Great. It's so sticky. Put natto on the rice. And then, eat rice with natto. It's not that you gotta do, but ... It's not that you must do it, but if you eat up everything people often be happy. - Oh, you are not eating all? - No. If I forced myself to eat up everything, that will be rude to the food. - What? Leaving it is ruder. - What are you talking about? Eating it unwillingly is ruder. For example, if I were to be eaten by a bear, then I want the bear to eat me and enjoy it. If the bear ate me enjoying the taste, then I can think that ''oh my life was not in vain''. It would be terrible if bear had to eat me because bear had that obsession of ''I have to eat everything up.'' ! My life was spent on someone's unhappiness. So I forced myself to eat it, eat something that I don't appreciate the taste of or something that doesn't make me happy. And because I forced myself to eat it, I became fat and unhappy. That's really disrespectable to the food! I feel really sorry for the food that offered me its life! So I therefore eat for my own happiness with respect. I would never dare eat food unwillingly. I won't do such a disrespectable thing! - Oh, okay. Then leave it. - No, I eat them. I got hungry after all this talking. So, gochisousamadeshita.
The whole episode 3 of Kare Baka anime ("My Boyfriend is an Idiot") is dedicated to the dilemma of rice vs. okazu. Apparently, it is a serious problem💀
かなめさん、ありがとうございました、みんなどうかはいつも楽しくて面白いです。Actually I find them a bit challenging for my level of Japanese knowledge, but the Japanese under titles give me the possibility to understand. I appreciate your work very much ❤🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yeah but unlike Duolingo this is actually good Japanese but I am glad you found a good channel for learning real Japanese would also recommend Game Gengo.
Kaname blessing us with his wisdom of not poking someone in the eye and the bear-analogy. Also, I appreciate your slow speed. I was able to identify way more words.
Your videos, Kaname-san are always very educational and I enjoy listening to your content. It helps me with listening to pitch and pronunciation of words. I think moving the Japanese Subtitles to the top and the English subtitles to the bottom would be more beneficial. I find myself wanting to read the English subtitles instead of learning the Japanese Kanji or listening to the words you say just because it is simply easier to read the English subtitles. or have an option to turn on English subtitles so that us Japanese learners can just focus on the kanji and listening to pitch and pronunciation
I agree with this. As much as I try to ignore the English and practice my listening comprehension, my eyes just go straight to the familiar English. I'd have preferred the English to be elsewhere on the screen or hidden in the subtitles options.
お疲れ様でした。 カネメ先生、賢い人からさらに学ぶことを楽しみにしているが 私の日本語学習の旅だけでなく、私の教え方も同様ですかな。 Thank you Mr Kaneme-sensei. The way you teach is very interesting, inspiring and has given me new ideas, to how I teach English to my (foreign)students. 頑張ってください。どうもありがとうございました。
Hi Kaname. I absolutely loved this video for listening practice however I have a suggestion. Can you please use UA-cam's own subtitle feature and seperate between Japanese, English and Both? The reason I ask is because I use an app which allows me to extract unknown words from subtitle files so I can create vocabulary flash cards in Anki. Videos like this are extremely helpful for my learning so I would like to make use of them in my vocbulary revision too. Thanks
Southeast Asians are also very familiar with the concept of rice + side dish. In Indonesia we call side dishes "lauk" and yeah they are generally salty and we eat them with rice and try to make sure that the amount of rice matches with the amount of lauk
Japanese rice is so good to stick chopsticks in: it's moderately sticky and the chopsticks stay in one place beautifully... it's crazy that it's a taboo.
The reason has to do with funeral rites. When a person dies, you set a bowl of rice and stick the chopsticks in as an offering to the deceased. Obviously, not an image you want to bring up at a pleasant time like eating. Also, passing food with the chopsticks reminds people of passing cremated bones during funerals.
Kaname is in his silly goofy arc, I hope it keeps going.

Video Transcript:
それでは私一人で弁当を食べます。
日本料理というのは基本的にご飯とおかずで構成されてることが多いですね。
* AはBで構成されている: A consists of B
おかずというのはご飯と一緒に食べるものをおかずと言います。
この弁当の中でメインのおかずはこのシャケです。
これはシャケの西京焼きと言います。
西京焼きというのは西京味噌という京都の味噌を使って漬けた魚を焼いて作った魚ですね。
これがすごくおいしいんですよ。
じゃあ、いただきます。
今私が食べたように、ご飯と一緒に食べるものをおかずと言います。
ご飯とおかず。
なので例えばこの中でご飯と一緒に食べないものはおかずとはいいませんね。
例えば、これはご飯のおかずかなあ?
味によりますが、味が濃いもの、おかずは基本的にちょっとしょっぱいものが多いと思います。
* Aによる:it depends on A
食べてみましょう。
うん。おいしい。
これちょっとしょっぱいな。
これおかずだな。
例えば基本的にサラダはご飯と一緒に食べないので、普通サラダはおかずとはいいません。
ただ何がおかずで何がおかずではないかは人によって違うと思います。
* 人にとって違う: it depends on a person
例えば、私にとって味噌汁はおかずではありません。
でも味噌汁とご飯を一緒に食べる人がいるので、人によっては味噌汁もご飯のおかずですね。
人によってはラーメンをご飯のおかずだって言う人がいますが、ちょっと頭がおかしいですよね。
まあとにかく日本の食文化を知る上でご飯とおかずというのはとても重要な概念ですね。
きんぴらごぼう。
ちなみにこのようにごはんの真ん中に梅干しがのっている弁当をよく日の丸弁当といいます。
それは日本の国旗のことを日の丸といいますが、この形が日本の国旗に似ているから日の丸弁当ということが多いです。
日本ではご飯を食べるときにやってはいけないタブーが何個か存在します。
その中の一つは立て箸と言って、箸をご飯の上に突き立てて、こうすることは日本ではタブーです。
あともう一つは箸渡しですね。
箸でものを他の人に渡す。
だから僕が皆さんに箸で「これ食べる」って言って皆さんが箸でこれをつかむ。
これは箸渡しと言ってこれもタブーです。
日本人とご飯を食べるときはやらない方がいいと思います。
あと重要なことなんですけど、箸で人の目を突っついてはいけません、これはダメです。
まあ僕は個人的にこういうものを食べる時は、さきにこれを食べて、そのあとご飯を食べます。
でも人によっては、こういう魚とかを食べるときに、ご飯にこういうふうに乗っけて、ご飯と一緒に食べる人も多いです。
日本人はご飯のことを主食といいます。
なので日本人にとってはご飯とか炭水化物は料理のメインなんですね。
なので、僕もそうですが、多くの日本人はご飯を食べるときに、ご飯の量とおかずの量を計算して食べます。
もし先におかずを全部食べてしまったら、ご飯と一緒に食べるおかずがなくなってしまう。
なので、おかずとご飯の量がちょうど合うように計算して食べます。
まあ僕の場合はまだ納豆があるので、納豆の量も計算して今ご飯を食べています。
もうすぐこの弁当のフィナーレが近づいて来ましたね。
ちょっと寂しいですが最後まで食べたいと思います。
あれ?ちょっとご飯が残ってると思う人がいるかもしれませんが、その時のための納豆があるんです。
納豆は日本人にとってとても大切な食べ物ですね。
まあ関西の人は納豆があまり好きじゃないと聞きますが、私は納豆が大好きです。
特に大粒の納豆が。
納豆にはタレをかけます。
* かける:pour or put some liquid or liquid-like thing on something
醤油とかのタレをかけて、混ぜます。
納豆を混ぜる。
この行為を混ぜるといいます。
すごいですね、ねばねばです。ねばねば。
納豆をご飯にかけます。
で、納豆と一緒にご飯を食べていきます。
まあ絶対ではないですが、ご飯を。
まあ絶対ではないですが、ご飯を最後まできれいに食べると喜ばれます。
あれ?全部食べないの?
うん、だって、無理して食べたら食べ物に失礼かなあと思って。
いやいや、残す方が失礼でしょ?
何言ってんの、イヤイヤ食べる方が失礼じゃん。
例えばね、私がクマに食べられるとして、でもどうせ食べられるんだったらおいしく食べてほしいじゃん。
美味しく食べてくれたら、私の命も無駄じゃなかったんだって思えるし。
「全部食べなきゃいけない」って強迫観念から食べられたらいやじゃん!
私の命が他の生命の不幸に繋がってるって。
だからね、私が無理して食べて、別においしいとか幸せとか思わないものを無理して食べてね、
しかも無理して食べたせいで私が太って不幸せになったらね、
それこそ食べ物に失礼じゃん!
せっかく私に捧げてくれた命がかわいそうじゃん!
私はね、私の幸せのために、敬意をもって食べるの。
嫌なのに食べるなんてそんな失礼なこと私にはできないよ!
あー、そっか。じゃあ残しなよ。
いや、私食べる。なんか、話してたらお腹空いちゃった。
ということで、ごちそうさまでした。
I really like the way Kaname-san introduces a carefully selected set of useful Japanese expressions that are used frequently on a daily basis, while he also familiarizes us with Japanese culture.
Are there other double-entendres in here? The only one I know is "okazu" but that might just be bc I'm chronically online and this is just a video about eating a bento
The japanese culture of being eaten by a bear
Well said
If you look carefully, the table lines up perfectly with the closet. It could very well be a huge Kaname with no legs, eating a huge bento on the floor.
the dog is violating every principle of physics
I hate how much this makes sense
The whole scene is full of box shapes. Living in a box, eating from a box, even his glasses are box shaped. 😂
Agreed
Most important thing I learned from this video: don't poke anybody in the eye with chopsticks. Wise words from Kaname-san.
正しそうね
Yeah, sometimes the subtleties of Japanese etiquette are difficult to grasp, so this warning is very useful.
As an American I was surprised to learn that when you go to Canada you’re not supposed to shoot the other customers with your eating guns, so it kinda makes sense. I wonder if the Canadians imported this custom from Japan 🤔
if someone picks a fight while eating that is the first thing i'm doing, taboo be darned
Great. As he gets confident he is allowing his crazy sense of humor to come out.
Why humor? He is just philosophizing.
6:10
OK this is actually hilarious, I'm totally gonna use this reasoning next time I'm at a family dinner
Fr 😂
Hilarious! :)
he be eating
Now do "Eating a Bento like a Japanese Delinquent"
Love it!
Kaname I will say that is quite the interesting philosophy at the end there, truly fascinating.
Deadpan "Kore wa dame desu" slayed me. 🤣
The argument about the bear disrespectfully wasting food vs. disrespectfully stuffing itself is perfect 🐻
Poor bear, he is just trying to eat!
As a German, I felt so seen to hear Nena sing 99 Luftballons in the background in the ending clip.
I need to memorize Kaname-san's respect to food speech. I've been eating past the point of being full because the first time I left food, the dining hall staff thought it was because I didn't like the cooking. No, I'm just full! I don't eat a lot! Please let me pick the right amount for myself so I don't waste any! ;-;
I also have a small appetite. I always dread the time the dishes are taken away by the waiter... Wish you could order small, medium and large portions.
* 人によって違う: it depends on a person (Keyboard pawaa ; You wrote 人にとって... :p )
Everyone waste food intentionally or not since most food is perishable except fruitcake. Wouldn't worry about people feelings since people will always find something to be offended by.
"Gohan to Okazu" seems like a similar setup to Filipino food as "Kanin at Ulam". Though sometimes it becomes a rule of three, "Kanin, Ulam at Sabaw" (the third term referring to soup, which some claim the rice has to be eaten with as well). I guess those sort of rules of eating plain rice with something else are common sense to many.
Food rules are always weird constructs since they are always broken when people get hungry.
I never expected to hear Nena playing in the background of a Kaname-san video. Nice music taste!
カナメさんがゆっくり喋ってるとちょっと集中し辛いんだけど、本音が出るときのスピード上げは面白い😂久々に弁当食べてなくて近い内につくるわぁー
Never had I seen someone eating lunch so engaging yet educational!
Thank you for your wonderful video Kaname-sensei!
I thought I was the only one calculating the amount of food that I needed to eat😅. I'm glad to know that japanese people do that as well
everyone in Asia can relate
I do the same thing lol. And sometimes I'll gather up the different parts of the meal and set it to the side. That way the last bite will be the best.
And if there's gravy on the rice or noodles, i have to include that in the calculation as well 😂
I found that watching these videos with headphones (in-ear) has helped me learn so much better than using speakers. Not that you can't use speakers, but its helped me isolate the words and "mora" of what is being said. Recommended!
This is great for a bunch of reasons, but especially because of your dialogue writing. it's amazing.
That conversation at the end is golden ❤❤
I love these meal videos- hope you do more!
This was so entertaining and informative 😂
love how you're diversifying up your content but at the same time still helpful and informative! about to have dinner now, will watch this while eating 😀 ありがとうかなめ先生!
最高 ! I appeciate the JP subtitles and content a lot. You're helping my kanji reading improve! ほんとうに39!サンキュー!
Thanks so much Kaname, this was some great listening practice! I really appreciate what you do.
I love the way this fun and informative video takes a dark, hillarious turn!
LOVE your humour! Thank you for your interesting teachings too! As I learn Japanese I hope I can memorise your bear story, word for word, to recite at my next meal in Japan!! 🤣🤣🤣😍😍❤
It'll be really great if you can continue making many contents like that. It's not only actally actually interesting but also useful for us who don't really know meaning of some stuff but for their name.
Feeling thankful for your videos Kaname!
What did I just watch. 0_0
Loved it, loved the guest appearance, keep up the good work!
For those who, like me, like to make PDFs here is the English Transcription:
Now I'll be eating bento alone.
In many cases, a Japanese meal basically consists of rice and okazu.
What is okazu? Okazu is something that you eat rice with.
So main okazu in this bento is the salmon.
This is called salmon saikyouyaki.
Saikyouyaki refers to grilled fish that is pickled with miso from Kyoto wich is called saikyou miso.
It's really tasty.
Well, itadakimasu.
Just like how I just ate it, something that you eat with rice is called okazu.
Rice and okazu.
So, for example, things that you don't eat with rice are not called okazu.
For example, is this okazu for rice?
It depends on the taste, usually okazu is something that has strong flavor or something that is salty.
Let's try it.
Yeah, tasty.
It's a bit salty.
Yeah, this is okazu.
For example, people usually don't eat salad with rice, so usually salad is not called okazu.
But what is and what's not okazu, that depends on a person.
For example, miso soup is not okazu for me.
But there are people who eat miso soup with rice, so miso soup could be okazu,
depending on the person.
Some people say that ramen is okazu for rice. They must be a little funny in the head.
Well anyway, in Japanese food culture, rice and okazu are important concepts.
Kinpira burdock.
Like this, bento with rice and a salted plum in the middle of rice is often called hinomaru bento.
Japanese national flag is called hinomaru, this shape looks like the Japanese flag, so it is often called hinomaru bento.
There are some taboos when you are having meal in Japan.
One is called tatebashi. You stick your chopsticks in the rice like this, doing like this is one of the taboos in Japan. Don't do it.
Another one is hashiwatashi.
You give someone food using chopsticks.
If I say to you ''Wanna eat this?'' and give you food using chopsticks.
This is called hashiwatashi, it is also a taboo.
I think you'd better avoid doing that when you are eating meal with Japanese people.
And another important thing is, you shouldn't stick your chopsticks in people's eyes. That's not good.
Personally when I eat stuff like this, I first eat this and then eat rice.
But depending on the person, when they eat fish like this, they first put it on the rice, and eat it with rice. Many people do that.
Japanese people call rice ''main food''.
So for Japanese people, rice or other carbohydrates are the main dish.
So, including me, many Japanese people when they have meal, they calculate the amount of rice and okazu.
If I finished okazu first, then I won't have okazu that I can eat with rice.
So I calculate the amount of okazu and rice when I eat.
In my case, there is still natto, so I'm eating while calculating the amount of natto.
The finale of this bento is coming.
Even though it is a bit sad but I'll finish it.
Some people may wonder ''You still have a bit of rice left!'', but that's why I got this natto!
Natto is important food for Japanese people.
I've heard that Kansai people generally don't like natto much, but I like natto very much.
Especially natto with large beans.
You put tare on natto.
Put soy sauce on tare, then stir it.
Stir the natto.
This action is called mazeru.
Great. It's so sticky.
Put natto on the rice.
And then, eat rice with natto.
It's not that you gotta do, but ...
It's not that you must do it, but if you eat up everything people often be happy.
- Oh, you are not eating all?
- No. If I forced myself to eat up everything, that will be rude to the food.
- What? Leaving it is ruder.
- What are you talking about? Eating it unwillingly is ruder.
For example, if I were to be eaten by a bear, then I want the bear to eat me and enjoy it.
If the bear ate me enjoying the taste, then I can think that ''oh my life was not in vain''.
It would be terrible if bear had to eat me because bear had that obsession of ''I have to eat everything up.'' !
My life was spent on someone's unhappiness.
So I forced myself to eat it, eat something that I don't appreciate the taste of or something that doesn't make me happy.
And because I forced myself to eat it, I became fat and unhappy.
That's really disrespectable to the food! I feel really sorry for the food that offered me its life!
So I therefore eat for my own happiness with respect.
I would never dare eat food unwillingly. I won't do such a disrespectable thing!
- Oh, okay. Then leave it.
- No, I eat them. I got hungry after all this talking.
So, gochisousamadeshita.
The whole episode 3 of Kare Baka anime ("My Boyfriend is an Idiot") is dedicated to the dilemma of rice vs. okazu. Apparently, it is a serious problem💀
5:50 awkward moment
the eaten by bear speech was a bit surprising, and not so surprising at the same time coming from kaname sensei
This is a very good way to learn, thank you Kaname Sensei
うああ!納豆が大好き!うらやましいよ!今 納豆食べたくなっちゃった〜!でもスペインには納豆を売ってる店が少なくて 納豆がものすごくたかくて 普段に食べないよ〜😭
かなめさん、ありがとうございました、みんなどうかはいつも楽しくて面白いです。Actually I find them a bit challenging for my level of Japanese knowledge, but the Japanese under titles give me the possibility to understand. I appreciate your work very much ❤🙏🏻🙏🏻
The dialogues are always a hoot to listen to😂
じゃ、おかずはフィリピン語のulamですね。
この動画ありがとう!
Definitely need more videos like these
I love this! Would it be possible to make more of these, but with optional English subtitles? 🙇♂🙇♂
It's a perfect timing to recommend ご飯はおかず by 放課後ティータイム :)
This is hilarious! I just found this channel and I love it! Haha 😂
I sort of expected this video to be a joke and him just quietly eating his food until the video ends.
Nena with 99 Luftballons at the end hits different 😂 but thank you for the video!
I never knew eating Bento alone can be so entertaining. Thank you for the lessons!!!
5:50 Relatable pet owner moment
This is the speech I've most understood until now. Most of the words Kaname-san used here are also in Duolingo's 1st and 2nd sections. Loved it!
Yeah but unlike Duolingo this is actually good Japanese but I am glad you found a good channel for learning real Japanese would also recommend Game Gengo.
I wish I had a friend like Kaname irl
i initially thought that saikyouyaki salmon is an awesomely fried salmon
You’re great! Informative and funny.
かなめさん、This presentation is spectacularly clear and understandable. ありがとうございます。
Very practical video!
Kaname blessing us with his wisdom of not poking someone in the eye and the bear-analogy.
Also, I appreciate your slow speed. I was able to identify way more words.
It’s nice to know Japan is still appreciating _Neunundneunzig Luftballons!_
Your videos, Kaname-san are always very educational and I enjoy listening to your content. It helps me with listening to pitch and pronunciation of words. I think moving the Japanese Subtitles to the top and the English subtitles to the bottom would be more beneficial. I find myself wanting to read the English subtitles instead of learning the Japanese Kanji or listening to the words you say just because it is simply easier to read the English subtitles.
or have an option to turn on English subtitles so that us Japanese learners can just focus on the kanji and listening to pitch and pronunciation
I agree with this. As much as I try to ignore the English and practice my listening comprehension, my eyes just go straight to the familiar English. I'd have preferred the English to be elsewhere on the screen or hidden in the subtitles options.
now I must listen to 99 luftballoons
for some reason when he speaks English it sounds downright Machiavellian.
納豆....ugh! But great listening practice and some nice vocabulary as well. ありがとう!
Make sure you measure your current hunger level and incorporate it in your calculation according to the law of diminishing appetite.
I understood almost the entire video without english subtitles holy moly
お疲れ様でした。 カネメ先生、賢い人からさらに学ぶことを楽しみにしているが 私の日本語学習の旅だけでなく、私の教え方も同様ですかな。
Thank you Mr Kaneme-sensei. The way you teach is very interesting, inspiring and has given me new ideas, to how I teach English to my (foreign)students. 頑張ってください。どうもありがとうございました。
Please accept my sincerest apologies for the mistake in spelling your name. I'm so, so sorry.
Hi Kaname. I absolutely loved this video for listening practice however I have a suggestion.
Can you please use UA-cam's own subtitle feature and seperate between Japanese, English and Both? The reason I ask is because I use an app which allows me to extract unknown words from subtitle files so I can create vocabulary flash cards in Anki. Videos like this are extremely helpful for my learning so I would like to make use of them in my vocbulary revision too.
Thanks
+1 on this. I would really like this as well.
I guess Kaname would have to "bear" with it being eaten..
another video, another absurd story. And I'm all for it!
今までの動画はこれ一番最高だ
最後はめっちゃ笑ったよ!🤣 いつもありがとうございます
KANAME MUKBANG??
3:21 thanks for telling, I might've fine that
By the way, in Japanese slang オカズ also means...
I actually learned of it from the manga titled 俺の妹が最高のオカズだった
Southeast Asians are also very familiar with the concept of rice + side dish. In Indonesia we call side dishes "lauk" and yeah they are generally salty and we eat them with rice and try to make sure that the amount of rice matches with the amount of lauk
Thanks for talking in Japanese with Eng sub. Btw, 男前ですね
Now I understand the k-on song gohan wa okazu, it's quite funny😂
Japanese rice is so good to stick chopsticks in: it's moderately sticky and the chopsticks stay in one place beautifully... it's crazy that it's a taboo.
The reason has to do with funeral rites. When a person dies, you set a bowl of rice and stick the chopsticks in as an offering to the deceased. Obviously, not an image you want to bring up at a pleasant time like eating. Also, passing food with the chopsticks reminds people of passing cremated bones during funerals.
99 red balloons at the end
More doggo please lol
the fact that hashiwatashi happens often enough to get mentioned is proof the world is actually full of psychopaths
This was the best
I did not know 鮭 (salmon) can be pronounced "しゃけ" (I learned it as "さけ")
さけ is just a slurred version of しゃけ, regional variant.
ooo 99 luftballoons at the end there! good song!
弁当の動画ありがとう!
7:18 Fliegen 99 Luftballons auf ihrem Weg zum Horizont... ^^
2:06 笑いすぎた
this is the perfect man
2:00 I've never agreed with something so much in life.
99 Luftballons? How and why does Kaname listen to german songs from the 80s😂
Nena in the background at the end :)
yes
サラダも当たり前におかずだと思ってた、そういう定義を疑ったこともなかった。結構びっくり。日本人です。
Pretty please do more videos like this!!
is it just me or kaname looks more ikemen in this
Haha interesting german song in the end :D
Kaname 納豆
I can watch you eat and talk
nattou wo aite, inu ga shindeshimaimashita.
A German song on the radio or intentional listening to it? 🤔
I want too
love this hahaha
