I learned grammar first and thought I understood it but it was always just so confusing. I took another approach: Vocab, Vocab, Vocab! Grammar just glues it together and now I understand all the grammar concepts! Vocabulary is much more important in the beginning of language learning as grammar is just the naked framework at that point

Hi! Aww Thank you soooo much! I will make more videos on particles!

I once mentioned the は/が difference to a Japanese friend, and she just said they were the same. I raised an eyebrow, was all "yeah, they're not though..." and she insisted they were the same. >_ After 12 years of living in Japan and 15 years of learning Japanese, I have a sort of 'instinct' of which to use, but I know I still make mistakes. It's also hard to explain to other learners. It's sort of like explaining the difference between 'a' and 'the' in English to Japanese learners--not the same functions, of course, but a similarly nuanced difference that's tricky for non-natives to grasp. I hope I can explain 'a' and 'the' to my students as well as you did は/が here and in your last video.

'a' and 'the' is simple. First of all, both are used for referring to a single thing. But the difference is that 'the' is used for referring to the only thing or if you want to point out a thing(For example "The cat is cute" means you are talking about a single specific cat whereas the sentence "A cat is cute" is a generalizing statement meaning all cats as a whole are cute or any cat is cute). 'The' can also be used for giving emphasis("This is the only thing I want"). So it is similar to "Ga" in Japanese but has fewer use cases and has less emphasizing power than Ga(Like you wouldn't say "The sister got pregnant" if you want to give emphasis. You would still say "My sister got pregnant!!" with a rising tone) I remember my classmates having difficulties with the usage of 'a' and 'the' when I was in Kindergarten but to me it was easy. Hope my explanation will make sense to others who were still confused.

​@@arpitkumar4525 Unfortunately, your explanation is not entirely accurate. "A cat" is not a generalization. "There is *a* cat in the room". "All cats are cute, but there is *a* cat who is not". Both of these statements refer to a specific cat. The actual difference is that you have to use "a" when introducing the subject for the first time, but must use "the" when referring back to the same subject later. Example: *A* cat fell through the roof. *The* cat, however, was completely unharmed. In this instance, both "a" and "the" refers to the same cat. However, you must use "a" first, and then only use "the" in subsequent references. TL;DR: "A cat is cute" is *not* a generalizing statement. If you want to generalize, you should instead say "Cats are cute", without using a/the at all.

Ill-Made Knight that is the funny thing with *native speakers* , they actually *have many mistakes* since *they mostly learn just "by ear"* since they are born, whereas us, "the foreign learners" , learn "correctly" mostly by reading and "analyzing" , so it is not surprise that your Japanese friend thought they were the same

​@@eclmist I didn't quite get why the cat from your example is not a generic one? One might ask a friend to put any single cat to the room and then say "There is a cat in the room" without knowing which cat is there. Being in the room is not an identifier for a cat, isn't it? The same for not being cute, it's not an identifier, you still refer to a generic cat. By the way, if there is a law that there must be the only cat in any room in the world, and this cat must never leave it, and it follows from the room somehow which cat permanently resides there, can we still refer to it as "a cat in the room"?

@@dmitriyborisenkov4332 I think we might have a slightly different notion of what it means to be "generic". I was pointing out that, in the comment I was replying to, saying "a cat" certainly does not mean "all cats" (which was what he referred to as "generalization"). Identifiability is not the issue here. All we're really interested in is the gramatical correctness of sentences that began with "a" and "the". Saying "a" will *imply* that we're talking about *one* and *only one* thing. Saying "the" without first introducing the topic, while usually understood due to it being a common mistake, would not gramatically make sense and can warrant a reply like "the cat? What cat?". Note that, there is a subtle nuance here: The subject does not need to be *introduced* right there and then. For example, *if it is understood* that there is a cat living in the house, then you would always refer to it as "the cat". However, when *telling someone* who *does not know* of the cats existence, you will still have to first tell them that "there is *a* cat in my house". This is not a simple grammar as it has many nuances. This is kind of why I replied to the original comment in the first place - if someone thinks that they understand it very well, there is a good chance they don't understand it at all.

truly an amazing video! this 2 part videos are the best ones covering the ga and wa particles. thank you so much!!

Your explanations are extremely good! What a great channel I've just found!

Wow !! What an excellent lesson. Can’t believe how much I’m learning from your lessons even though I had read about it in books but never retained it as much as I do from watching your videos.

I got to your channel today and I'm very surprised at how easily you explain things, this is like "Learn Japanese For Dummies" cuz it is super easy to understand you. Thank you a lot for all the effort and passion reflected in your videos one can tell how dedicated you are in all your videos (i've watched 4 so far). BTW i totally recommended your channel to my friends! Keep up the good work Miku! And Thank you again for everything.

I love your videos so much! They're super helpful and very fun to watch! I hope you keep on making more and you gain more subscribers 💖 みく先生の動画が最高！

it's been about three years since i strarted studying japanese and this is the first time i feel like i catched the differences between these 2 particles although i have studied with a native speaker in the past! Thank you　みく先生, it is impressive how clearly you explain japanese speaking a language that is not your native one!! Awesome!

Actually I've heard this phrase used occasionally in English, but only ever in a joking way (in the context of bf/gf). More natural would be "will you be my girlfriend?" or "do you want to go out with me?". If you asked someone directly "are you taking applications?" (with a grin), they'd probably laugh. :)

Hi Miku Sensei : Thank you so much for all your wonderful videos , your channel is the best Japanese learning channel on KZread, I am so happy I found you , I love all your videos and had gone through almost all of them , I found these " The difference between * and *" very helpful, and very enjoyed the little skit before each lesson , they are so fun and creative. I also enjoy all the other conversation videos like how to order food in restaurant, hotel check in .... , extremely useful! I will visit Japan one day and use the Japanese to speak to the people using the Japanese you taught me : )

Thank you so much for all your hard work and for taking your time to upload for us to get better at Japanese! I really appreciate what your doing for us, you don't know us, you don't have any reason to do it for us for free, yet you do it! Thank you so much, I can't even begin to describe how much this channel has helped me get better at Japanese, I am already studying for almost a year and I progressed so much, in just a year!

Although I’ve been learning Japanese for almost 2 years, its often confusing between は and が. I like the way how you explain so clearly using (1) context and various situations (2) examples highlighting sentence construct and (3) quizzes at the end to reinforce the concept. みく先生が一番好き。とてもありがとうございます。
