Hi Yuta, got a video idea for you if you're interested in investigating: how do Japanese feel about the amount of packaging in many of their food products? Especially with other countries starting to crack down on single use plastics for sustainability purposes, what does Japan think about this trend, and whether they might follow suit?

'Aru' and 'Iru' in a literal sense mean "To Be" or "To Exist" in the same way that the phrase "There is" can mean the same in a literal sense.

Just keep listening, reading (if you can), and watching stuff, and eventually it should come naturally.

@@aprilrahee (this message is seriously long and probably not worded very well, sorry, i wrote it at almost 2am but hope it maybe helps) Hi, sorry for the late answer. Best answer i can give you in short is: don't worry, there is no right way, only your own. Everyone learns differently and the beginning is definitely the most difficult part, where you still don't really know anything. Again, i think input is more important than output. Try to teach yourself more to understand, rather than to speak. I think it's okay to start with basic grammar videos on youtube, or read articles you find on google. Just try learning the basic forms and conjugations that you'd learn for any language. By that i mean, present form, past form, future form, negative form, past form combined with negative form, etc. You don't have too worry too much about understanding it all from the beginning, or being able to use all of these tenses and conjugations. It's more about, try to get the gist of how the language works by watching/reading/informing yourself about basic grammar, because when you consume native material or content, you will see the forms being used that you learned, and learning by context is the ultimate way to learn a language. So yeah, for absolute beginners i suggest checking out basic grammar guides on youtube or googling articles, as well as you should get anki and download the 2k most common words deck. Learn the most common words, most common grammar and you will slowly but gradually see, that you understand more from what is being said. But you gotta have a goal. For example, i really wanted to understand Vtubers, so i just watched my favourite vtuber streams everyday, studied kanji everyday (mostly with anki), and basically did everything i could so i get exposure to the japanese language (even turning my phone to japanese and stuff). I kept doing this and my understanding grew better as the months went on, now i have really good comprehension and can watch streams without much trouble. Sorry for this really long message, i'm not good at explaining (also it's 1am for me lol), but this has been my experience. I think, that no matter how slow you learn, as long as you continue to learn, and never give up your motivation to learn the language, you will get better and especially overcome the big beginner hurdle which is the hardest to overcome. Just give yourself time because there is no need to rush. Don't worry about a right or wrong way of learning. Even if you learn one word a day it's still progress. Progress is the right way. :)

This is exactly how I use anime to learn Japanese. My favorite method is watching the anime in English subs and going back with Japanese subs and write down Kanji or other words I don't know yet! It's super fun this way. 😁 I also watch Hanae Natsuki's channel and it has helped a lot :)

Not going to lie, ever since I came to Japan two months ago, I am quickly realizing that anime is actually going to be a crucial part of helping me develop my listening skills. It really does help break things up from the textbooks and flash cards.

I honestly learned a whole lot from just watching anime with English subs. Maybe my brain is good at that kind of stuff Now I use Tandem to try some output and its going pretty nicely. Whenever Im not sure I honestly check in the translator trying different combinations or look something up on the web Animelon is also great for watching with Japanese subs, Im thinking of rewatching Gotoubun no Hanayome at some point if its on there

1. to be fluent you need more like several 1000 of hours instead of only hundreds. 2. Fully understand anything makes you fluent. There is no difference between a 5 minute clip or a 3 hour movie. 3. I recommend J-Drama because you will understand the plot even if you will not understand a single word. Real life actors will make the content much more understandable through their acting and expression compared to the relatively still pictures of anime.

I just started watching your channel today, but you've already helped me so much, a website for learning kanji through radicals, and an anime to watch that will help me learn how to speak naturally.

Love the video! I have a different learning experience though. I'm multilingual, English is my first language, and my dad's and mom's native languages are my 2nd and 3rd languages. I was never ever taught those languages, I can't read or write them either, but I have speaking fluency! This is because I memorized the words from listening to my parents speak it, understood the context of it's use, and each time I'd hear the word in context it would bolster my understanding of it's proper use and meaning. A lot of my learning was recollection, rather than my parents sitting me down and explaining. I feel like I picked up a fair bit from anime the same way, through recollection. I just need to study grammar, and how sentences are structured, but I think I could skip reading and writing altogether if I just want to learn for fun. In the same way I can't read or write music, but I've been a guitarist by ear for 15 years.

2:31 *Passes out*

Fantastic suggestion! I feel like I've been making some breakthroughs in my (painfully slow) Japanese learning, and this method looks like it will help a lot. Next time I'm watching hen...anime, I'll give it a shot.

Learning about radicals in Japanese kanji has been very enlightening, I had no idea about the complex kanji combinations!

I learned Finnish and Japanese by watching tons of shows with subtitles and then without subtitles. When you finally understand what they're saying without having to rely on subtitles, it feels quite satisfying. Ot feels like a switch has been flipped inside of you and you finally understand what people are saying.

A fun little thing also about learning this way, is you learn inside jokes to the subbed anime. The best example watching host club amd one line fhats always felt weird to me in the english version. There's a line when Haruhi is explaining she doesn't care about gender, she says 'dude' in the dubbed version. But in japanese Haruhi uses 'Ore' to refer to themself so it's a much funnier joke bc it's basically Haruhi going 'sure they/them is fine idc'

I heard a few words that I understood, but didn't understand the sentence as a whole

Knowing how character accents can be extreme in Anime I wasn't sure about this one of videos but honestly, this is very informative. Many thanks!

Love the new hair cut dude. Kudos 👌🏻

Will try to re-watch Kimi No Na Wa with this approach 🤩

this was hilarious and informative, thank you!

my favourite method is probably just doing what you explained in this video except with music because catchy lyrics stick in our heads a lot easier

3:00 that made me laugh xD

Great video! I'm sending this to my students for sure! By the way, does anyone know what is the name of the anime showcased at 8:03? Edit: In case you have the same question its from the movie Fireworks, Should We See It from the Side or the Bottom?

Thank you good sir

It’s finally coming together

I've been trying to study Japanese on my own since I was in 6th grade, then ended up majoring it in college. When it comes to languages, I always pick things up really fast at the beginning, and I'm ahead of all my other classmates. However, in the more advanced Japanese classes, I started to struggle. I was still better than most when it came to written Japanese, but others could speak much more fluidly than I could and I have a lot of trouble picking out things when I listen. By the time I graduated, I still didn't feel like I could effectively use the language. I sorta gave up for a while but recently have gotten back into it. I bought some Japanese ebooks and have been reading one that seems to be a perfect skill level for me. It has furigana, everyday Japanese conversation, and sentences simple enough to understand with a little help from online dictionaries, and Google translate or weblio when I get really stuck on something. The book is called Moshimo, Kono Machi De and I'm about halfway through now. I also like the idea of watching anime/Japanese TV in Japanese, with Japanese subtitles. As someone who's very visual and also became very good at English from a young age by reading along as I was read to, I think these things will help me a lot. I already feel like I can read just a little bit faster, and with less help. I sort of wish I could progress just a little faster, but it has still been very enjoyable.

Thanks for this tip! What do you think about learning Japanese from songs? It's something I used to maintain and improve my English when I was young. By the way, your advice on getting the book "Basic Japanese Grammar" published by Tuttle was very helpful.

5:33 - I was literally planning on watching Fate Zero like this cuz of this video 😂😂😂

This was extremely helpful thank you sensei

Thank you, very helpful. 🙏

"Because you watch a lot of hen- anime" 😂

I trapped myself in death note. I promise myself the next series will be used as another source to learn japanese

Wow!! These are excellent ideas!! Thank you!

Awesome! I’m heading back to Japan in a month.

I shall now speak Japanese

I found a Chrome extension for Netflix and KZread that allows you to show 2 types of subtitles on screen at the same time and select individual words to show their definitions. Do you know if it is helpful to watch something with both English and Japanese subtitles at the same time, or would using solely Japanese subtitles be better?

What's the name of the extension? I think it would help even if just a bit

Arigato! Just finished watching Japanese drama on Netflix with English subtitles… will watch again with Japanese now! 🙏🏼☺️

Hair lookin' wicked, Youth'ta. Keep up the great work!

After watching an ungodly amount of hen-anime, I am now fluent in the ara ara dialect of Japanese.

What if I want to learn Japanese through songs? Currently, I'm trying to memorize the OP of Komi-san Can't Communicate. Or are the lyrics of this song a bit different compared to everyday conversation? Well, I think a song can be used as some kind of dictionary in my brain since it's easier to remember. So I can relate the words I'll might find with the words that are in the songs I memorized.

Oooh, I do that exact thing! I've always remembered song lyrics very easily, and Japanese music was no different. It actually really helped with my pronunciation too. I really recommend using songs to build up your vocabulary of words. And then after you've learned basic grammar, use the lyrics to recognize sentence structures to help remember them also.

I imagine it is somewhat different from normal conversation, just like English songs. Take any English song you like and imagine the lyrics being said in a conversation, it would probably sound unnatural. Same goes for poetry (you could argue that song lyrics are a form of poetry). But it's still the same language, so even if it won't help you talk like a normal person, you'll still learn some words and grammar.

Would really love a collab between Yuta and Matt from Matt vs Japan

Love the way you explain. Subscribed and email subscribed.

12:44 it makes me laugh :D

didn’t realize Japanese subs were also on Netflix! thanks for the tip! I used to watch anime with two subtitles at the same time (English and my native language) when I was still learning English.. I think the same could work with learning Japanese too, or if you cannot manage that maybe watch the show with English subs first (so you’ll have a vague idea what is happening) and then watch it with Japanese subs.

Japanese subs don't seem to be available on Netflix as a universal rule. They're certainly available in Japan, and *possibly* in countries with English as the native language. But for regional Netflix there seems to be only three options: English subtitles, native (that is: your language) subtitles, or no subtitles. No option for original language (e.g. Japanese) subtitles. Unfortunately. However, DVDs sometimes have them.. now, where did I put those Ghibli DVDs? 🙂

Thank you for amazing video

Японский я едва ли начну учить, но Юту стоит смотреть хотя бы из-за его чувства юмора. Прекрасный ролик! ))

Easy, turn off the subtitles English can sometimes mess up your understanding of grammar of other languages
