I'm German, and my mother taught me to always be 10 minutes early for business meetings and 10 minutes late to someone's home - so they have a little wiggle room for preparations :)
Yes, that's also kinda right for me! (from Austria) ^^
hmmm,... I was taught 10 minutes early for business meetings and 10 minutes early (but kind of walk around the neighborhood to spend time and then knock on the door exactly on time) to someone's home.
I learned to be 15 minutes early to a business meeting (but only go in there around 10 minutes earlier) and be 5 minutes early when visiting a friend
Yeah !! Every time I met a Japanese friend she was 10 minutes early at my flat, that really sucked hahah
@@merquenenjapon7979 Why does it suck? I would be suprised but why would it suck?
I tell my friends to meet at 1 and they'd just be leaving their house at 3
哈哈哈哈、真相了
one of my friends in a clique always reaches an hour later so we told him we were meeting at 6pm but actually we were meeting at 7pm :')
@@ichigoichigolicioux503 LMAO IM THAT FRIEND
When I first came to Japan I worked at NHK. My job started at 1pm, so I arrived at 1pm exactly. At the end of the first week, they told me that if I was late again, they would fire me. Cultural shock! 😅
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That's fucked up man, hanging out with friends is one thing but an employer should never ask for time they're not paying you for.
If someone ask me to meet up at 1 pm. I’d arrive 5 untill 10 minutes earlier but I’d go somewhere around that place first and then meet them exactly at 1 pm 😂 at the meeting point.
I'm happy that you commented on my channel😆
That's still polite! For me, I have no sense of direction so I gotta go 15 mins earlier maybe. lol
I do this every time hahaha
Imagine getting fired for being on time LMAO that's some batshit crazy stuff 🤣
in my country if the meeting is at 1 pm, we deliberately tell everyone the meeting is at 11 (yep, 2 hours earlier), then we can all arrive at 1 pm. 😆
Lol
I know the country, wkwkwk.
But if they are new to the group, they might come at 11am though 😂 and found they are all alone with no one replying or waiting for each others to reply 🥲
@@Akumaling lmao i was that someone 😂
@@sundried.Tomato 🥲🫂
I guess I am those type off people who are always 5-10 mins late, even to work.....
Maybe it's good to come earlier when working in Japan, but when you meet up with your friends, it's still OK! haha At least I can wait for you🤣
I am from the US and I was always taught that "on time" means 15 minutes early. For all professional things I've managed to keep doing this. For more personal things, meeting up with friends, etc. I tend to arrive 5-10 minutes early. I am ok if someone is a little late to meet me like 10-15 minutes, but anything more than that and I would probably not be friends with them for very long if they continued to be like that. I believe being late is VERY disrespectful to the person you are meeting.
Similar here in Poland 👌
Punctuality is really a good thing!
However we Filipinos have this "Filipino Time" wherein it's NORMAL to be late (lol). Like if you say you'll meet at 12, it's okay to arrive at like 12:30 and we won't get mad. Because of this, we are usually/almost always late and not punctual (I am also guilty lol).
Watching this video, I hope we can all learn from Japanese punctuality too! ww
true dat xD
yeah, and I think it's just some kinds of habit in most of southeast asia country. I do hope for the same.
Each day, I find more and more similarities between Indians and Filipinos. LOL
Indians, Filipinos, and Indonesian 😂
When I lived in Hawaii, a lot of people go by "Hawaii Time." People often arrive an hour or more late. It's considered normal. People are very relaxed.
Where I live now (California) it's also very relaxed and if it's casual (not for school or a job) no one really cares if you are 5 - 15 minutes late. We often joke about being "fashionably late"
Im filipino and when I tell you “Filipino Time” exists, it really does. Idk why it’s so common here in my country, but not following/abiding with the agreed time of meeting has become such a norm here. It’s so normal here that people often praise those that arrive early or even on time.
And btw, it’s not just like 10-20minutes late, like for example, if the agreed time is at 1pm, people would start arriving at 2:30-3pm, I’m not even exaggerating HAHAHA
filipino here haha .. our filipino time😂
Mainit daw kasi kapag 1 pm
Something not to be proud of as a Filipino. I always hated that. It's as if they don't respect other people's value for time.
That's one thing i truly hate about us Filipinos. I'm very punctual and almost always turn up at the agreed upon time. If i ever were going to be late, by a few minutes. I hate making people wait and get worked up when I'm gonna be a bit late but when i arrive, there's no one there! I ask them where they are and they'd say they're still in the bath or doing something.
I absolutely hate this so-called Filipino time. We need to change this. We can't be 2 hours late every single time we make an arrangement! It's such an inconsiderate thing to do
I normally try to arrive ぴったり on time, I used to be 5-10 minutes early but sometimes it feels like it's annoying for the other person if you're too early.
Well someone's gotta' be first lmao
たいへん助かりました！ありがとうございます。私は中国人です、今は日本に初めて来たので、先生の映像でたくさんことを習いました。日本語の勉强を頑張ります、よろしくお願いします。✨
"There are countries where you promise to meet at １but you actually usually meet up at 2 or even 3" ah yes Filipino time.
this is the nearest Filipino content we have in Hitoki's channel
In Finland, I would say 5 minutes early for social functions (but not before exact time if visiting someone’s home) and 10 minutes early for medical appointments (even if the doctor is always 5-15 minutes late). If I am going to an unfamiliar place, I try to give myself some margin, maybe 15-30 minutes, proportional to the importance of the appointment.
Work telcos are interesting, btw, because I work with people from multiple countries (currently mostly the US, India, Germany, UK, Sweden and Finland). I tend to always join 1 min late because nowadays I typically have multiple half-hour meetings back-to-back, with no break in between, and occasionally meetings even spill over their allotted timeslot. If I am 2 minutes late, I apologize. A few years back, when the tempo was more relaxed (mostly 1 hour meetings, and not always back-to-back), I noticed my German colleages joined on the dot, Finns like myself joined 2 minutes late (as well as Belgians), and my French colleagues joined exactly 7 minutes late. (Eventually, on one occasion visiting our Paris office in person, I found out the reason: they arrived in the meeting room just about punctually but only then started to look for network cables, dial in etc. I.e. they considered the meeting to start based on physical presence whereas I considered it to start based on online presence.)
Back in my youth, I remember participating a cultural exchange camp in Spain, and the concept of punctuality over there. We were told that some activity would start at a set hour. 10 minutes before I started getting nervous because no preparations were being made to make it in time. We eventually made it 1 1/2 hours late, and that was considered quite normal. By that time, I was already a nervous wreck. It took some getting used to that kind of punctuality concept but I think I somehow understood it on some level.
Related to punctuality, there is also another interesting concept: multiactiveness vs. focus on discrete task at a time. South Europeans are often multiactive, i.e. they take care of multiple things at the same time whenever they meet the person they need to. We North Europeans (as well as North Americans) are usually compartmentalizing things much more. I can have multiple meetings in a row with the same people, and in each meeting we only talk about the topic of the meeting. Occasionally it might be more productive just to have the meetings blend into one longer one, jumping between topics more freely.
Sorry about digressing. Punctuality and related topics are just irresistably interesting. And hearing the Japanese perspective is doubly interesting. Thank you for an interesting video. ありがとうございました。
🇫🇮
Where I live arriving 10 minutes early can actually be rude. Specially if it is at someone else's home as they could still be getting ready, taking a shower, cleaning, etc (or not be home at all!). I would call ahead to make sure if I arrive before the decided time.
You should try the Korean Idol makeup! 見たい！かっこいいと思う！
He resembles ATEEZs yunho alot 😅
メキシコでは1時に会う予定があったら、みんな2時にぐらい着くと思います。個人的に予定どおり着くのは好きだけどそれをしたら1時間を待たせられると思います。
I'm from Brazil, and if a brazilian schedule a party for 8pm, it means that the party will start after 10pm 😂😂 Because my parents are japanese, I was always one of the first to arrive everywhere, even delaying 2 hours 😂😂😂
I personally HATE it when people show up early for an appointment. It feels like they don't respect your time. If I wanted to meet somebody at 12:30, I'd make the appointment for 12:30, not 13:00, for example. Showing up earlier means I have to stop what I was doing before the appointment.
Where I'm from, meeting at 1pm means getting ready at 1pm haha! I got surprised when meeting at 1pm means being there 5 minutes early. That would be weird if you did that where I live. Like super weird. We gotta practice punctuality more though!
Highly context dependent in the US, I think. For a job interview you should be early. For a work meeting you should be on time, but I don't think the expectations are always strict - my current workplace is casual, and they will understand if you get caught up in a call or if it took you longer to get coffee than you thought it would. For a casual meeting with a friend, you can usually get away with being 5 or 10 minutes late. (It's still polite to apologize.) If you're just "hanging out" at someone's house, it might be very loosely scheduled -- "We're hanging out at the pool, come over whenever!"
For a house party, or a cocktail party, the start time is usually often as well -- people arrive at least half an hour late, probably more, and might even roll up two hours late. For a dinner party, though, you better get there while they are still serving cocktails. Either way, it's not rude to be on time but your host might be a bit surprised (or even unprepared, if they are like me and cleaning the floors last minute) if you arrive at 8pm "pittari."
usually in Brazil, when someone say that they will come at 1, they will probably arrive at 1:30 or 2
in germany we feel ashamed if we are late when meeting somewhere outside. for me it is okay when someone visits you and then comes late, because then you don't have to wait awkwardly. and if we are late, we make sure our friends know why and when we will come exactly xD
In Indonesia, it's common for people to have "rubber watch". It means that the person always "stretch" their time, i.e. they are never punctual. From my experience, if I come right on time, I'm always early, because most of the people are late. Of course this happen mostly in casual meetings. Usually we are much more punctual when it comes to work and school.
I know it's not something from my country to be proud of, and I hope that my country (including myself) would change for the better.
At my country, if we decided to meet at 1 pm, it means 2:00 - 2:30 pm lmao.
Laughs in India. If someone promises you that they will be there at 1:00 . Its almost unacceptable to expect them to show up before 1:30 .
ひらきさーん！なんて分かりやすい日本語を使ってるですね！偉い！友達になりたいなー
well if we were to meet at 1pm, I'd probably start waiting at 12pm since I'd be quite anxious not being able to make it on time lol
I'm an Australian living in Sweden. I would also try and be at the place "pittari" or 5-10 minutes beforehand, but being/waiting up to 10-15 minutes late is totally acceptable in my opinion so long as you shoot the other person a text message to let them know.
ずっーと作ったビデオが役立つんだ。本当にありがとうございます🔥
勉強になりました！
すごく面白いと思う、これからも頑張ってください
Your videos are so informative. Thank you 😊
Here in Brazil (before watch the full video), in my city, the swimming competitions that a have participate say the will start at 7 to pm, but actually start 7:50 or 8:00.
Is a problem in Brazil that topic. I think this is changing, but is really different from the another countries.
Is a habit who come first just wait for a time, and, in fact, we wasted much time with that.
i really enjoy these vids :D they're very informational and funny!
🤯 the switch to English at the end surprised me. Very fluent 👌👏
Uhh, 12:30, that's just me, I hate being late so I sometimes give myself enough time to arrive up to an hour early. In America, it can vary depending on person or occassion what 'on time' can mean (sometimes it's good to be punctual, while other times 'fashionably late'). If it's suppossed to be something like a house party and you're early, not many would expect you to show up when you could potentially be setting up or cleaning. As America isn't a monolith that's all I can say for where I live in NY.
I am always late when I have to meet up with friends, but if it’s for school of work, i always come ぴーたり or 5-10mn before
Thanks for the video, it’s a really good listening training for me !
ありがとうございました
Personally, I'd say around 5 minutes before or after the agreed meeting time is fine. Anything later than that then the polite thing to do would to call or text that you're running late, on your way, etc. This is for hanging out with friends or family. If it's business-related or something like an appointment of some kind, then definitely get there super early so there's no chance of you running late. Then you 'check in' 5-10 minutes beforehand to let whoever know that you're there for a scheduled appointment then wait to be called to be seen by the boss, doctor, etc.
Like anything in life, it's a balancing act that you need to figure out on a case by case basis. Too early and you're somewhat being disrespectful by eating into time they did not set aside for you but being too late and you'd be wasting time that they did. What's 'early' and 'late' is both culturally and personally defined...
仕事は絶対遅れたらダメだけど、友達同士なら多少は遅れても大丈夫だと思います。10分以内なら許容範囲かな？それ以上遅れると嫌われる可能性が高くなりますね笑
I'm from Brazil and if you say we are meeting at 1 PM it means I am living home at 1 PM and will meet you whenever I get there.
I'm late to everything and it's a reeeeeaally hard habit to fix. I tried so many times to fix it. But I just end up being late again, it's a bit frustrating to me. It's good that you were taught to always be early since a young age!
I'm always like.. 1 hour late. If we're meeting at 1 p.m. I'm most likely going to be out of home at 1 p.m. ...sorry.
This video is a month old but I will answer anyway:
I'm always there 5-15 minutes before I meet up with someone. The only exception is my best friend and my sisters. They are never on time so I don't try to be on time with them either. (I'm German btw)
そして、その説明はわかるやすいだった。ありがとう。
Last time I was in Japan, I asked if a Japanese friend in Tokyo would like to go out for dinner or drink. We would meet up at the Harajuku station and he was late for about 20 or 30 min. He was coming in from Kawasaki and he said he miscalculated timing. I was fine but a little surprised at first thinking wow I thought it wasn't polite in japan. But funny enough as good friends I of course didn't mind much. It gave me time to get a green tea anyways being a hot day. I think that as a good friends and me as a westerner he could be relaxed and knew I would forgive him lol.
in my country sometimes when we have a promise to meet, there is a term called "rubber clock" i don't know why it's called rubber clock, but because of the term we always late.
example : if i tell my friend we have meet in 07.00 am, they will come at 07.00~08.00 am. cause about that problem we start to think "Ah, don't be in a hurry, he'll be late, i'll late too"
When I met my friends two weeks ago, we arrived 10 minutes late, one person arrived 30 mins later, another person 45 minutes late. We all just start walking around the neighborhood and do things while the other people get here. We don't stand there and wait in one spot.
Can you make a video about pay culture? Can you split bills or does everyone pay on their own? Tipping is really rude isn't it #AskOnomappu
Thanks for the idea!
(Sorry, long comment, but you made me think and this is a surprisingly interesting topic for me 😅)
I’m from Bulgaria and here it’s thought of as rude to be late, the right thing is to be on time and if you want to be extra polite you can arrive early. But it varies from person to person, there are usually 2 kinds of people - the late ones and the ones that are on time (or a little early).
But usually unless someone is a strict person and gets mad at the late person, it is not such a big deal to be late 5-10 minutes. (Or at least that’s my experience)
And usually everyone knows at least 1 person in their circle that is known for always being late (to varying degrees, some can get seriously late).
I’ve always thought the correct thing was to be RIGHT on time. And I feel nervous to go early (and I’ve often been late because of this, I think...) because if the other person is on time I might make them feel bad that I had waited for them.
I know I personally feel bad when I have gone right on time and it turned out the other person had come early and waited for me.
I actually kind of consider it bad to do, because in my opinion it kinda makes me look bad for being ON TIME (aka putting effort in and thinking I’m doing the right thing) and that is ridiculous and kinda unfair... I also think it’s very nit-picky and inconsiderate for someone to get mad at me for being like 3 minutes late. And tell me the exact minutes, as if it’s a running race I’ve failed or something.
You can never know what will happen, you might not have correctly calculated your travel time or you might forget your phone and have to go back home to get it right after you went out. A few minutes aren’t the end of the world and they don’t mean you don’t like the person you’re meeting.
I also know that depending on the circumstances, some people might not be completely ready (if it’s a home visit for example) if I go earlier, so I would inconvenience them if I do.
And for example I go to private piano lessons. I know that my teacher has a lesson with someone else right before mine. And I know that although the lesson is set to be 60 minutes, it is not ...pittari? 😅
Like sometimes she needs a bonus 5 mins to get the person to complete the exercise, understand the mistakes and wrap up with some final words about the lesson or saying what they’ll do next time etc.
So I’m pretty sure I’ll inconvenience her and the student if I get there early and just wait while they finish the lesson (it has happened even when I’m right on time).
So usually when I get there 5-10 mins early I just wait until it becomes the right time and THEN ring the bell.
Because there isn’t a set rule, it all depends on the person.
Late people don’t think it’s such a big deal if you’re late, right on time people can be either chill and understandable or insist on you being the same, and the early ones can either think they stand morally higher than you, or they can be chill and understandable as well, knowing that if they go early it is likely for them to wait a bit because the other person will probably be on time.
I’ve had people apologize to me for being early even (when I’ve been on time) because they know that it can make me feel bad, when I shouldn’t, because being early is not the strict norm and being on time is not a bad thing. 😅
But I admit that I kinda envy early people, because they are never late and that makes them seem dependable and polite and I respect those qualities a lot.
If I had more confidence and didn’t worry so much, I’d probably strive to be early as well. I always feel horrible when I’m late and unfortunately it isn’t a rare occurrence, but I’m trying to get better. I might try to be early from now on...
In Israel where I live were always late lol. Even the public transportation is late all the time and when we schedule things it's expected that everyone will be late. If it's a friend's gathering so I don't mind but when it comes to busses and concerts for example 嫌だよ
アルゼンチン🇦🇷には午後２時に友達と約束あれば午後４時まで集まるの本当に普通ですよ！笑笑
そうですねね…私は大学に行ったとき、いつも30分ぐらい前に着いてた。それは一人でいることが、自由で席を取ることも、のんびりで絵を書くことができるからだ。
たいていぴったりにつくことがきらいだけど、絶対いないことがない場所に友達に会ったら、自分で待つのはいやだと思って、緊張して、まあ今度ぴったりは大丈夫ね...😌

小さい頃から日本語を学んでいる私に 日本文化の礼儀や5分前行動などを教えられてすごく嬉しくてありがたいです^^
I agree with this rule, I like to get settled and ready before a meeting, lecture etc :)
I'm usually 15 - 30 mins early for things. If I'm too early I'll just play on my phone till someone turns up.
Wait, I thought this was about being late? It was about "pittari" after all. I've never been so happy about being clickbaited before.
As Bulgarian, I think it's generally okay if people arrive within 5-10 minutes of agreed time. And if someone is still not there after 15 minutes it's safe to assume they're not coming at all.
Thanks a lot for this useful video! In France I would say that people usually come 30 minutes after the appointment. If it is a party that usually starts around 9pm, people might come one or even two hours late! It's really common.
I tend to show up 5-10 minutes late if I am familiar with the place or people (like if I'm going to work, or hanging out with friends or family). If it's an unfamiliar place or person, then I would probably get there 15-20 minutes earlier in case I can't find the place (OR PARKING because it's an issue where I'm from). If all goes well and I get to the meeting spot early, I would explore the area a bit and then show up at the meeting spot right on time. 😅So if I'm a bit late, it just means I'm not overly anxious and I'm comfortable in that environment or around you because we're friends. Well... obviously for work, it depends where you work. I could stroll in a few minutes after I'm supposed to check-in and it won't be a problem.
Oh dear, it's so cute that you consider yourself a 悪い子供 just because you arrived right on time for school! Here in Brazil it's common to be late for everything (I myself don't consider it right so I'm aways on time - and alone! - I'm usually the only one haha).
En un grupo quedamos en vernos a las 5 de la tarde, dependiendo del lugar tardamos más o menos. Si tenemos reservado en algún lugar, entonces llegamos a tiempo. Si vamos a quedar en algún lugar del pueblo para hacer algo juntos, entonces puede que lleguemos con un poco de retraso (10/15 minutos). Si quedamos para ir a la casa de alguien, llegamos dependiendo de las ganas. Si tenemos muchas ganas llegamos puntuales, si no, no sería la primera vez que llegó un par (2) horas tarde. Esto es así en una quedada en grupo, si somos dos entonces siempre intentamos no llegar tan tarde. Al menos así es en mi grupo de amigos españoles XD.
We're the same where I grew up!
1pm means you start doing the activity at 1, like you start ordering at the restaurant at 1, or the film starts at 1, or the host serves the food at 1. You have to be there earlier.
When going to a friend's it's common to say: "The party starts at 1, you're welcome after 12" and then people will turn up around 12:30. Close friends will often be there even earlier to help the host prepare, but they will ask for permission first.
I moved countries and here 1pm means come exactly at 1pm, but I can't shake the habit of arriving early, so I often walk around the area for a bit because I'm there way too early.
Swiss German people rather come 30-35 min earlier and wait. That is why people make fun of us..
What? I'm Swiss French and we never come that early. Usually on time or 5min earlier sometimes. We are so different 🙈
I love your haircut! Kpop style haha! You should try a makeup video and use Japanese makeup vocab, that would be fun! Also, I'm often late so I'm worried for when I go to Japan. 😅
I am glad to hear that you don't have to be directly on time, because it is either I am late or Early I can never be directly on the dot-
私はインド出身なんだけど、なぜかインドでは例えばパーティーを開く時に「5時に来てください」って言われても5時に行ったら絶対まだパーティーの会場を準備している途中ですよ。笑
それで「Indian Standard Time」っていう言葉が半分冗談で生まれたんだけど、インド人に5時に来てって言われても本当は1〜2時間後に来てってことだからこの特殊な時差に気をつけて笑
え〜！それは知らなかった🤣
インドに行く時は絶対にそのルールを覚えないと！
I like to arrive 20-30 minutes early for almost anything, with the exception being specific friends and uni. My friends are notorious for being late even for Australians, so I try to arrive exactly on time so I don't have to wait a whole hour if I were to arrive early. I typically go to university 1hr or more early. For me it's an anxiety thing even though my mum is Japanese.
👋🏻 Hi Hitoki! I enjoy your videos! In my county it’s also good manners to meet 10 min to 5 min before the designated time with friends and work meetings too. Ironically though, coming too early can be considered tacky, rude, or creepy too. For example, if you’ve been invited to someone’s home and come early, it’s considered rude because you were not considerate of the host to entertain you beforehand and now you have inconvenienced the host and caught them unprepared. It’s also considered tacky and premature if you show up to a party early. 10 minutes late is considerate give host time to prepare and gives chance for others to mingle with you instead of just the host. As for dates, you can arrive early but don’t tell your date you were early. If you do, you can appear desperate and your date will most likely think you creepy and feel uneasy and a bit fearful of your odd behavior. Hope you found this interesting! 😸
I felt the rigor one time in Japan. I had an appointment to visit an Anime studio, unfortunately I was 5 minute late to the appointment and the group left without me wife and me. That's just how it is in Japan. Unfortunately we took the wrong train at that time, but that's why we should have planned to be there by 45 minutes at the minimum... so it was a costly mistake for us
If it's a work meeting or business related 10 min earlier or later is fine, generally people will wait 10 min.
If it's a friends or informal gathering with many people even an hour late is perfectly fine, and everyone just rolls with it, but if it's just 2 people, then is the 10 min rule or calling before to ask for more time.
In a good part of the south of France, we are often late if it is not a business meeting. Even for a show or a date with friends, a lot of people arrive late and that's pretty normal. Even up to 30 minutes late it does not shock at all. It often shocks the Germans.
In Norway it's polite to come on time if we have something planned. However, when there are at-home parties, it's normal to be 30 mins-1h late even if we said 6 pm for example.
I’m in the US, I don’t think I have ever, even once, seen a guy take flowers to a girl on their first date…or really ever. Flowers are generally for special occasions here. So you’d bring them for an anniversary perhaps. Though, sometimes you might bring them to a long term partner or spouse just to surprise them. Anyway, it’s not nearly as common as TV in the 50s would make you think :D
EDIT: Also, the way you describe being five minutes early for classes and sounds pretty much exactly like what folks are told in the US. I will say this though, at work, for remote meetings, you never see folks being five minutes early. Well, at least at my job you don’t. We are normally having meetings with folks who are in meeting “all day”. And since they are all remote meetings (using Zoom) and they don’t have to walk from room to room… I think they feel like they can take any meeting they want right up to the end of the hour. As a result, they are often either right on time for the next meeting or even a couple of minutes late. So, at the moment at least, the habit is for everyone to show up as close to right on time as possible. I’ve signed into meetings 5 minutes early before, just to be ready, and nobody else will show up until the exact moment the meeting starts.
I mean, it kinda makes sense since it’s all digital anyway. But it is a change from how we used to meet in real life if you think about it…
オノマップさんのビデオはとても便利ですね。私は今日本語を勉強しています。毎日、オノマップさんのビデオを見ます！
Depends who I'm meeting.. if I meet my best friend, who is Spanish (I'm Dutch), I don't put any effort into being on time. If she's one hour late, she's still quite early 😅 but normally I prefer to be a couple of minutes early, I can't help but find it direspectful if people show up late, especially without warning.
Also, loved your remarks about becoming a Korean channel at the end:')
Really!?!? I'm planing to go to Spain to learn Spanish for two weeks so it's really good to know haha I'll definitely check what time actually they're going to come lol
Yes, really! I lived in Spain for a while myself, sometimes people would show up 3 hours late! Spanish people are so nice though, and it's such a normal part of their culture that it didn't take long to get used to it:) and next place I'll live is Japan, so sounds like I won't need to get used to waiting again!
If get there about 1:30 maybe 2:00 if I’m tired. It’s quite common to be late here in Mexico
In my country, when someone invited you to a party at 1pm, everyone knows that must arrive like 3 or 4 hours after.
Personally I try to arrive ぴったりeverywhere.
In Switzerland we usually meet on time (it's easy has public transports are on time) 5 minutes earlier if it's an interview/professional meeting and being 5min late when meeting friends is well accepted. I also used to live in Ireland and because the buses are ALWAYS late unlike Switzerland I (and pretty much everyone living there) would find it pretty acceptable to be up to 10-15 minutes late. I also had a friend from brazil over there and even though she walked she was ALWAYS an hour late. Like a full hour!!! I stopped hanging out with her because of it. I noticed most brazilians I met tend to be late too but thankfully not that much.
Lol than I will pass on going there
I live in a country where when we say 1
It means 1.30
Cause the roads are always crowded so we give it time to others so like when you say the time it means they get to have 3o min to 1 hour of time to give them for others to reach
It's a known silent fact which is helpful
We do go out early but roads are crowded we have no control over this
him: if u tell ur friend to meet at 1 pm what time do you get there?
me, a filipino: ...
Bold of you to assume I would show up (Its the same in India)
For normal things I always try to be early, but when I hang out with friends it's always "Around" 13:00 for example, like it's okay if you're a bit early or 10 min later that's fine. I've also noticed that people don't like to be on time for party's!???. I've gone to school party's/meetings where there would be literally no one at the decided time. They will just show up a hour or 2 later D:.. (I'm from the Netherlands btw)
1:30..? I’m always late.... I think I’ll try to be five mins early from now on for the sake of my Japanese class 😂😊
My arrival depends on what the meeting is for and weather I expect the other party involved to arrive early/before me or not. If it's a business related meeting, I'm always at least 15 minutes early. If I'm meeting a friend, I'll get there 5 to 10 minutes early if they have a shorter distance to travel to the meeting spot than I do, otherwise, I'll try to arrive right on time if not just a couple minutes early. If I'm heading to someone's house, I generally arrive 5 to 10 minutes late. If I'm meeting someone at their house to go out, I'll arrive a couple minutes early and chat them up while they make final prep to go out so they don't feel rushed by my early arrival. It's rude to keep people waiting, especially if you both agreed to a specific time.
Personally I think it is good manners to be early and/or on time.
as european person i am obsessed with being on time, and i mean being 5-10min ealier is on time for me, and it always have been, it doesn't bother me if someone don't do the same, as long as they are on time is fine but it start to irk me when someone starting to be late (is fine as long as someone will notice me before hand that they will be late, then that is fine, things happens)
In Peru we have something called "peruvian hour" so we say to meet up at 1:00 but we all know inside us we'll both meet 1:30 or later, so we call that the peruvian hour, like the real hour. We just accept we are unpunctual.
I always try to go about 10 to 15 minutes earlier whether it be a meetup with a friend or to school, I like being early to places because it's polite and I can walk around and familiarise myself with the area a bit so I don't get lost later, and being alone in a classroom is nice too because people make me anxious😂
自分は15〜20分前に行きますよ。忘れっぽいなのでやばっ！遅刻しちゃう！って急いたら、何か忘れるかなぁと感じが結構ありますw
ですから、いつも先に行って集合場所の近くに待ちながらのんびりします。
でもタイには「タイスタイルのアポイント」という30分以上に遅刻する人が多いです。慣れたのでマナーが悪いと思わないんですね。
私は仲良しの友人を一番長く待ってたのは1時間45分くらいんですw
オノマップさんのチャネルが初めて見たことあるんですけど一回だけ見ると好きになっちゃいました。楽しくて日本語勉強できるし。オノマップさんの声と発音もすごい綺麗だと思います。他の映像も見ますよー♪(ᵔᗨᵔ๑)
I try to arrive at exactly at the promised time, but ended up arriving late because I keep getting lost or forgetting something and had to turn back
In Mexico is normal to wait at least 10 min, in uni my thesis director has waited for me like 20 min and viceversa and we don't really care that much, but it really depends on the type of person you are dealing with
Nice..👍
In my country there is both kind of people, who arrive early or o'clock and who arrive shamelessly late (like me). Anyway, in my job we have to mark our entrance with the fingerprint, and we have this kind of "grace time" (10 minutes late) where they don't discount salary money Dx and they don't fire you. It's supposed to be for an emergency but, if you're late (those 10 minutes of grace) 5/5 days at week it doesn't really matter 🤷🏿♀️
In Trinidad, a 1pm meeting starts maybe around 2. This goes for anything. Island life is very raxed.
いつも早いところ（１０-１５分）緊張しているので遅くなります 笑
面白いと思いますが、ここカナダでは日本に似ています。 （それは時間に来るとき！）
ありがとうひときさん。あなたは作るは学ぶのを楽しくします！：）
I was reading 金田一３７歳の事件簿 and in it Hajime slept in and was late for work and he says やべっ 遅刻ギリギリ, I was like, I learned this onomatopoeia from somewhere!! The funny part is that he runs into his neighbor while rushing to work after not eating any breakfast, and she wants to give him some leftover nigiri, so now I will remember this word forever ❤️ 教えてくれてどうもありがとう。
My boyfriend almost never on time.... and 彼は日本人です。 but i know some friends who also late but the point is they will tell us the time the train will arrive.
I like the white coat 😊
Just on time is possible but if you have to take the train for each train it can be one hour early since you have to count that much for each train you have to change into. But if you're late you always call to apologize.
I do like to come early but I got told to not come too early and now I end up being late sometimes, time is hard, isn't it?
For me it depends on where and who I'm meeting. If it's a date or I'mm meeting with friends in a bar or something, I'll try to arrive ぴったり or 5 minutes before. If it's in a friend's house, I'll most probably get half an hour later. And if I know my partner won't be getting there in time, I'll most likely get there 10 minutes later
Finally found a channel i was looking for. 😄
Such a kind comment! Which part of the videos do you like?
@@Onomappu I liked the entire video, How you explain about Japanese culture and how you speak about day to day life. It's fun and relatable. This will help a lot of people to improve their Japanese😄.
Also, nobody comes on time in India when it comes to meeting friends but coming late to class is inexcusable. If we are 5 mins late to class we are not allowed inside. 😂
@@nishayadav-5353 Oh that's really opposite here. If you are late for classes, you might be scored but that's it. You definitely can attend them haha
Thanks for interesting comments!
@@OnomappuI guess only Med schools are little strict here.😅
I really would like to receive flowers but not in a date where we would going to be walking all day or something cus it would be troublesome to carry the flowers all day, but if it is a date at home or in a restaurant it would be so nice and cute ^^
"5 Minuten vor der Zeit ist des Deutschen Pünktlichkeit"
5 minutes before the time is the punctuality of the German
As you can tell, arriving 5 minutes early is perfectly normal here in Germany, too. And indeed, between friends, it often doesn't matter too much if you are a little late. Especially if you meet up at one of your homes. If you are meeting in public, you definitely want to be punctual so as not to make the other wait, but if it's at home, it is not quite as important.
