I really want to spread the truth about how long learning japanese takes because it sets people’s expectations right. But even tho the journey is long, it’s very rewarding 😙

As a beginner learning hiragana, I would not have ちち and はは ingrained in my mind as father and mother without anime Japanese. Obviously, early anime immersion is fantastically helpful.

@TokuyuuTV

Жыл бұрын

Very true, anime can help solidify certain vocab that you hear over and over again! I just believe that for grammar and general listening skills (more than single vocab or set phrases), it’ll take a lot of studying outside of anime as well!

@@TokuyuuTV Oh very true, but my intended overlying meta take was that having　ちち and はは ingrained suggests anime language may be a questionable conversational resource in some cases ;)

Another great video, and a really aesthetic background. Excited to see more of what's to come! Even though I'm still really early into my language learning, I've hit a plateau in the sense that I know what I need to do to proceed, but don't know what steps are best to take. I've set up Anki, started reading Tae Kim's guide to grammar, and just glossed over the beginner Kanji in Kanji Study. All the resources you've recommended in your previous videos. However, I'm not really sure where to begin from here, I don't know if I should be reviewing all 3 of these at the same time, or learn the grammar, then vocab and Kanji, etc. Additionally, from the vocab that I've reviewed on Anki there's sometimes Kanji associated with those words. Should this be something I memorize, or just focus on the hiragana/katakana spelling, then if I remember the associated Kanji it would just be like a bonus bit of knowledge? Sorry for the paragraphs of questions, I got into a routine, and now not knowing how to proceed has thrown me off these past couple of days.

@TokuyuuTV

Жыл бұрын

Thanks for leaving such a thoughtful comment!! I absolutely love that you’ve taken the steps to set up those resources and got started, fantastic start!! 😙 I’d say to do all three, but you can rotate the days if doing them all everyday is too much. For vocab, just focus on the hiragana spelling, and like you said, if you begin to recognize some kanji that’s a bonus! But memorizing the vocab with the kanji is a lot to take it so i would ignore the kanji for now. Wishing you all the best on your journey, you’re doing an amazing job already!! 🥳

Hey Tokuyuu, what app do you recommend for learning japanese vocabulary and grammar up to at least N3 level, ive been having trouble finding a good app so i thought it would be a good idea to ask you. Hopefully you have a great time in japan and keep up the helpful videos! Thanks!

Hey Tokuyuu! I was wondering where you learned your kanji? I’m currently still learning katakana, but I wanna be ready for when I’m gonna move onto kanji.

Even if you're watching anime with the subs while studying Japanese at an early stage, that's okay! You can try to pay attention to what's being said in Japanese and then look at the subtitles to fill in the gaps. If you hear a word and you think you know what it means, you can look it up and find out, because figuring things out makes you remember it easier! Believe me, it takes a lot less Japanese knowledge than you think to be able to turn off the subtitles, and after that you'll keep learning more and more anyway.

Watching anime with subs can still provide some practice like you said, but i still think consuming media that matches your level is far more helpful from my personal experience! I also have to disagree that it takes less knowledge than you think to understand anime without subs 😝 at least if we’re talking about understanding 80%+! maybe with visuals, emotional tone and such you can get an idea of what’s going on, but then I feel like you’re guessing based on cues rather than thoughtfully digesting the words and building understanding of the actual language. Love that your sharing your thoughts tho, even if they’re different from mine 😌

@@TokuyuuTV I know about comprehensible input, because as Stephen Krashen says, i+1 is the easiest way to acquire language. Since I hated doing the graded readers and stuff while I was still a noob, I preferred to go for things lower than 70-80% of my level, because the content was still interesting, I was able to tolerate the ambiguity more, so I got through it with a LOT more dictionary lookup. When I said you need less Japanese than you think to watch anime without subs, what I didn't mention was that if you know give or take 1000 of the most common words, you can understand roughly 80-85% of anime, and the thing that gets you to 95-100% is those less common words, which unlike the really common words, are a lot harder to learn out of context, so you're better off learning them in context. If you don't know 1000 common words yet, you can learn those words in context too if you want to start anime without subs earlier

Hello tokuyuu I have a question when your just starting Japanese and you finish hiragana and Katakana how do you start to say sentences

@TokuyuuTV

i would focus on learning basic grammar! that’s ultimately gonna be the foundation for building sentences, and you can practice saying the example sentences 😙
