PewDiePie: says 1 word in Japanese Yuta: It's free real estate
I feel like Pewdiepie's Japanese pronunciation might hindered by him trying to meme or entertaining his viewers in his regular content by exaggerating his Japanese pronunciation like a stereotypical foreigner would. If there were more videos of Pewdiepie just being Felix Kjellberg like in a vlog video and speaking Japanese like he would normally would, I think it would be easier to evaluate his Japanese conversational levels.

I feel like Felix have quite a distinct accent and melody, even when speaking Swedish. And he does it when speaking English as well, even in the vlogs and when he speaks normally to the camera. I believe it's just how he actually speaks a lot of the time. Some people just have a way of speaking that stands out. Besides, the Swedish accent can quite strongly shine through when we speak another language. It can be jarring listening to Swedes speaking English for example. Like, the grammar can be all good, and the person is fluent. But listening to it? It's like a big OOF. Harsh to the ears man. For a lot of us, it's going to require plenty of deliberate practice with pronunciations and speech melody to take that harsh edge off. More practice than what Norwegians and Danes typically need to do. Obviously he is going to exaggerate it, for entertainment purposes too, as you mention. In these clips it was fairly obvious that some of them were exactly that.

Swedish actually uses the same kind of pitch accent. I’m surprised pewdiepie didn’t use that knowledge to his advantage. Being Swedish and studying Japanese at high school, It has helped me understand the structure of sentences for sure ^^ Edit: I’d appreciate if all the scientists below stopped repeating the same stuff. I didn’t mean “exactly the same”. They’re two different languages, I know that.

I wouldn't call it the same kind. Swedish is still mostly a stress accent language I would say. The pitch accent doesn't have to appear in a word, there are thousands of words that only have the stress accent instead of the pitch one (for example: "anden" pronounced with the stress accent and with the pitch accent are two different words). Also the contour of the pitch accent of Swedish is "jumpy" and always the same in one's speech register (although varies between dialects) - the pitch in the first syllable of the word falls down and then flies back up at the second syllable. Japanese on the other hand doesn't have stress at all, only pitch, which can only be high or low and there are four patterns in total. That said, I definitely agree that having that as a feature of one's mother tongue can help immensely with other languages using pitch accents even though my own only has a stress one (but I've been learning Swedish for a long time:) )

Yep, definitely. It's almost unfortunate how most textbooks and courses start you on Keigo because then you have to deconstruct the polite forms to get the dictionary forms, which is the root that every conjugation is based on anyway. It would be so much more efficient if they all just taunt the dictionary forms of things, and then the conjugation rules alongside them. But I'm a beginner learner and definitely still struggle a ton with sentences beyond more than 4 or so particles chunks. I always find myself needing to hear all of the chunks, pause, and then rearrange them mentally into a form my brain can understand.

Something that I have noticed mostly English speakers don't really manage to resemble the exact sound of in Japanese is what in Romanji we write as "W", which sounds more like the pronunciation of "Wa" in Hawaii, which doesn't sound correct, unless you play in Kabuki Theater. In my language (Greek) we have 2 letters (β-γ) that the "W" of Japanese sounds as if it is somewhere between the two of them, so it's easier to resemble its sound. A year ago, while I was training a friend of the time which was making anime song covers, without being Japanese speaker, at first he was approaching the accent from the English point of view but when I explained him and made him understand he should approach it through Greek sounds, it was way more easy and the accent was way more natural. In general, I think Greek and Japanese have some similarities as they are two languages with more clear neutral accent, some common letter pronunciations and tonal patterns.

I think it's more of a problem for them. It doesn't help that most non-standard varieties have their own accents and lenghts different from standard.

Its typically because they get tons of exposure to English throughout their whole life. Due to the fact that a lot of Europe already speaks English, and in a lot of European countries, taking English in school is required. In other words, just a lot of immersion since childhood and a focus on the language in school. Which generally isn't very reproducible unless the target language is being constantly spoken and taught since childhood.

With my limited understanding, the syntax is a bit more comparable to "Yoda speak", in regards to the sentence structure often used by the StarWars character. And I suppose the intonation thing is why puns and wordplay are often featured in comedy anime?

Although in some rare instances the same jokes do translate to other languages.)

@@seneca983 Japanese does have conjugations, but differs from other European languages, which conjugate through involved people and number of people. On the other hand, Japanese is more important the level of politeness and only has two tenses: present and past. To show an example, 飲む(nomu) is the dictionary form of "to drink" in which depending on the context could mean: I (will) drink, you (will) drink and so on with all the pronouns(there's no distinction between present & future). You could change it to its polite form 飲みます and means the same thing but more polite. I think there are 14 basic verb forms in Japanese (not quite sure, though). Even so Japanese conjugation is much simpler than French or Spanish. There are many challenges when it comes to learning Japanese such as kanji and knowing where to use the correct words in every situation. When you know more, then you realize you know nothing.

That’s the same thing as a Chinese seeing foreign celebrities speaking Chinese or foreign friends example John cena Bing chilling
In the first 30 seconds I learned a whole new facet of Japanese. Neat!
Yuta just a question, but have you played Ghost of Tsushima before?
ok, so I have a question regarding the pitch pattern of いいえ which gets shown in the first minute of the video. He says that the pitch pattern is "low high high", however it sounds as though the pattern in terms of actual musical pitches goes from low to high, and the drops just a little bit. My music theory knowledge kicked in, and it sounds like a jump up of a minor sixth and then a drop of a half step, and I checked with a piano and the notes are closest to an Ab, E, Eb. I understand that is a long tangent to get to my question, but basically what makes a Japanese pitch pattern high or low? Is it relative to your starting pitch, and as long as it is noticeably higher than that it is considered a high tone, or is it based on the pitch of the last tone regardless of how small a drop or jump in pitch? Sorry for the long question, I really appreciate the time you put into your videos to explain how people actually talk instead of teaching the same way every other resource teaches.

I already knew that Japanese was furiously difficult grammatically for Westerners to learn. Some of the best polyglots out there struggle with it. But TIL that it has pitch accents as well! Not to the same degree as Cantonese, for example, but just another layer of complexity on top!

It’s probably way harder for native English speakers as they tend not to be able to even “hear” it Thankfully, having come from Portuguese, Japanese native pronunciation feels easier to listen to with enough detail to pick up pitch accent, and also to imitate it
Pew should see this and react.
Yuta teaching pewdiepie would be nice to watch
