Great video, but I hate the title. A cheat sheet is usually something that can be easily referenced and contained into a small form factor. Calling this video a cheat sheet is pretty disingenuous. Again, video is good, it's just not a cheat sheet in any sense of the word.

Oh god, 13 minutes of overwhelming grammar rules. This is gonna take me a while to get adjusted, considering my reading speed is equal to a kid who's favorite crayon color flavor is みどり.

The single rule can be easily summarized into 1 sentence: There are only 5 verb conjugations in Japanese, and the purpose of conjugations is not to change the meaning of the verb, but to allow you to attach the appropriate helpers. There are no complex rules and hundreds for forms, just one simple sentence. 😉

You don’t actually need to learn the rules like this to speak and understand Japanese. That’s not to say it isn’t potentially helpful, but you will notice the patterns after enough exposure to the language. Grammar is descriptive, not prescriptive, so you’ll have a much better time letting grammar rules explain what you’ve already noticed than you will trying to figure out how to say things with a scrabble bag of words and rules.

@@Slippynutz While we're on the topic of grammar, you made an grammatical mistake in English. "Doing" is a conjugation of "to be," and, as a verb, any descriptors must be adverbs, not adjectives. You are doing well, not good. I will not address your capitalization and punctuation.

This is such an underrated video! I am a Japanese learner from Taiwan, and I've been learning Japanese for months now. Not even halfway through the video, I am already subscribed and am surprised by how few the likes and subscribe count are. My native language is Mandarin Chinese, which means I have a huge advantage in recognizing the kanji characters since the writing system of my native language is entirely based on such a system. I've been watching a lot of videos to teach myself Japanese; some of them are taught in Chinese, some are in English, and this video is one of the best tutorial videos by far, simplifying the rather complicated conjugation rules for beginners. I also find it extremely useful that this video directly uses kanji instead of hiragana letters, which oversimplifies the writing system for a learner like me who is already familiar with the characters. I feel so grateful that I've come across this video and was randomly recommended by the KZread algorithm. Keep up the good work! Now that I've come across this video, I'd be binge-watching some of your other videos. Your channel deserves more views and subscribers.

Thank you for taking the time to write such a nice comment! We actually have a similar background as I'm from Hong Kong and learned Chinese first (except I'm not fluent in Chinese and can't even read basic stuff like menus). . One note is that the conjugation rules really aren't complicated at all- the system showcased in this video is the system that Japanese natives use and is very simple. The only reason it seems complex is because textbooks intentionally make things harder by ignoring native systems and coming up with their own random stuff. . Very glad the YT algorithm brought you here too! Thanks for watching and commenting!

I can tell I'm officially old since I find this rapid fire editing and pacing style very difficult to follow. The content is so nice, though! If you cut the sound effects by 90% and increased the runtime by 100% to let each topic breathe a bit, I think it would be much more useful. But everyone else seems to be just happy with it, so I'll see myself out and into the nursing home. Oh, for future videos, my other suggestion would be to pronounce あ like the Japanese vowel instead of the English letter A, since it sounds like you're saying え, especially since you used the Japanese pronunciation for every other vowel.

Finally someone undusting the teaching of Cure Dolly (RIP), I'm glad that this way of learning Japanese grammar is spreading. (Julien Fontanier, a french KZread-teacher also seem to work this way, although he didn't fully uncovered the scheme yet) But atm you're like the third person that I know in the KZread game explaining the Japanese grammar like this.

You confirmed and untangled so many things that I've been guessing at for a long time, a lot of this logic was faintly swirling in the back of my brain. It didn't all soak in in the first watch but feels like I have something to grab onto now

I love the random editing with all the sounds. Keeps you on edge haha

This is the 4th year of learning Japanese at school as an extra-curricular activity, and I didn’t know you should look at 飲みます as 飲み+ます Thanks for the video, I found three other interesting and possibly helpful vids that I’m gonna watch tomorrow, you earned my sub! :)

As an advanced beginner/intermediate level learner this is incredibly helpful in reconsolidating and summarizing a lot of information that I've learned and some that I've forgotten over the last year or so.

I’ve been self studying Japanese for around 10 years now and when I finally got to take courses in college, I was extremely disappointed with how easy it was for me and how they taught it. It was through Genki and they heavily emphasized drill sentences. They would give us a sentence and then have us rewrite its “format” but just with one or two different words. They also taught conjugation in the way you disapprove of (for example, when they taught us short form, they did it like this: “飲む->飲みます->飲み”. But I learned how to conjugate the exact way you describe in the video (which was really helpful thank you!). I didn’t fully realize though that verb conjugations literally just go through the vowels and I love the way you explained it. Thank you so so much for making this video!!

Great video, the editing was very entertaining and the lesson well explained!

Such an useful and great video, it feels like I learnt a lot even though the content was pretty advanced for my level. I will definitely subscribe, check more of your videos and review this one and take notes about it in some time.

9:54 This section completely blew my mind of how systematic and logical conjugations are. It’s a eureka moment that I rarely get from learning Japanese, so thank you so much!! One question though, is there a set order to go through when we do this process of conjugating in a lego-like manner? And if so, what is the order to do that?

Great video, I probably gonna rewatch it many times.

I just want to say that was really helpful. For months of either learning how to speak from listenings or learning vocabulary it was always presented as separate verbs for 'to drink' 'to want to drink' 'to make someone drink' etc. (to show and to be shown sth). The way You presented it as actual single verb + another helping verb + another helping verb makes it look so plain simple and especially logical. Thank You.

If anyone watching this is a beginner and it's too fast/doesn't make sense, don't be discouraged! When you learn Japanese, it takes a lot of time just to absorb the grammar forms, vocabulary, and different uses. It's difficult to understand how everything fits together if you don't even know what half the things mean or how they're used. That said, it's still good to watch stuff like this and expose yourself to the concepts. Just be patient and don't be in too much of a hurry. I think this will be perfect for the students I work with who are finishing the second Genki textbook.
