English is a walk in the park it's a yoke how easy it is

[@evanmitchell1110]

Well, you asked for mistakes, so I deliver. "But people who study Japanese probably feel difficult" > should be > "But people who study Japanese probably find it difficult." - This is because you need to refer to the object of the sentence otherwise it sounds odd. Also, the word 'find' is used because they are learning that it is difficult, since they did not know it would be difficult before listening. "I'm not good at understand English especially listening, but my friend..." > should be > "I'm not good at understanding English, especially listening, but my friend..." - The 'ing' after understand is because it is something that is constantly happenING, so you must use 'ing' instead of the dictionary form. Also, the comma after English is there because "especially listening" could be removed from the sentence and it would still make sense, so we classify it as an 'extra' by surrounding it by commas. "my friend who can speak English he felt pressy easy my listening exam." > should be > "my friend who can speak english felt my listening exam was pretty easy." - This is because you must put the object (listening exam) before the adverb and adjective (pretty easy), then the 'was' connects the two parts with the verb 'be' in past tense. "If I had a mistake, please tell me!" > should be > "If I made a mistake, please tell me!" - This is only because we use the verb 'make' when we're talking about mistakes specifically. In other cases it would be 'had' or the verb in past tense (For example: "I had a failure" is incorrect. "I failed" is correct.) Tadaa. Good luck.

[@lollipophugo]

If you have trouble with this my recommendation would be to watch lots of native japanese media. I am definitely not N3 with regards to kanji and whatnot, but following the conversation is not too bad because i've watched a _lot_ of subtitled anime over the years. Maybe couple your straight grammar/vocab study with just trying to enjoy some media of some kind and try to separate the words, phrases or grammar that you've learned at the fast speed they speak at, but watch something you will enjoy so that it doesn't feel like study. It has been a help for my comprehension although I definitely can't speak like this yet! Good luck! EDIT also don't forget that you can set the speed on the youtube video to slower to hear more clearly.

[@Caradeniz]

[@dethswurl117]

Almost 3 years into self study and I can finally easily understand nearly 100% of this video 🙏 If anyone feels intimidated, the speed and amount of known words necessary to comprehend all of the scenarios is honestly pretty huge. Just keep goin and you'll inevitably get there :)

[@robbief4096]

These are really well made. Good speed and the vocab is pretty simple. Just wondering why the translations are so loosely translated. It seems you’re clearly working with native speakers who could give the exact translations. That being said, these are good tools, thanks.

[@dakotamercer1679]

I couldn't agree more with your entire comment.

[@zegtronic]

exact translations are not natural in English, so it’s important not to translate it word to word, and rather meaning to meaning

[@IDidntWantAHandleYouTube]

@@zegtronic I disagree. If you’re writing a professional translation for native English speakers, then yes, you must rewrite the sentence in natural English to match the meaning/intention of the original Japanese if you want to produce something of any quality. However, for students of the language, literal translations are very important - Japanese has virtually nothing in common with English structurally or grammatically. It’s better to get to know the language on its own terms rather than trying to force things to fit into English. For example, a natural translation of 「日本語を読めるようになりたい」would be, “I want to be able to read Japanese”. But a literal translation would be, “I want to become such that I am able to read Japanese.” The second one is important for students to absorb because it makes the role of 「ようになる」clear. It doesn’t matter that the translation isn’t a natural way to say it in English; it IS the most natural way to say it in Japanese, and students need to get their brains to think about language the way a Japanese person does. Twisting things around to force fit them into natural English translations just makes for confusion down the road when grammar and structure get even more complicated. To a give a specific example from this video, look at this sentence: 「はい、ですから、ドアの横の本棚の上には置けませんよ。」 (Yes, so we can’t put it on the bookshelf next to the door.) They translate this as: “It’s too bad, it would be nice to have the new one on the bookshelf next to the door, but only one printer will fit” This is a terrible translation for students. If I were a new Japanese learner, I would be totally perplexed. There’s nothing here that means “that’s too bad” or “only one printer will fit”. Those things are implied from context, but beginning students need to understand the literal meanings of the words before they can apply context.

[@zegtronic]

@@IDidntWantAHandleKZbin You have entirely changed my viewpoint good sir. You gave excellent examples and ideas. I'm glad you disagreed with me; I now agree with you as well. It's not as black and white as I thought. In professional environments it's good to have natural translations, but in learning atmospheres, literal translations are the way to go!

[@IDidntWantAHandleYouTube]

@@zegtronic Wow, a civil conversation on KZbin! I definitely agree with you about more natural translations in professional work though. I hate robotic translations. But yes I think for students, literal is best at least in the beginning!

[@cmcleod4884]

The purpose of this activity isn't to understand EVERYTHING, that's definitely not what this is for or at a beginners' level. Part of developing listening skills is omitting the unnecessary information while focusing on what you can understand. I myself got nearly all of these right, despite not being familiar with a lot of the vocabulary and grammar. That's because I live in Japan and am accustomed to listening to Japanese speakers. The power to tune out and hone in is very important in your language journey.

[@channel-td5hy]

私は日本人です！ 日本語は難しいと思いますが頑張ってください！！😊😊

[@ourboy6878]

Everyone in the comments is saying it's N3 and super hard but all of the grammar except maybe a few points is N4 and it's pretty easy all things considered. They speak really slowly compared to real life Japanese and don't use any slang or drop any particles like in more casual speech. It's pretty unrealistic but it's good to test your listening comprehension.

[@pixel6614]

While speaking was easier for me, this is a perfect exam to train my listening, which I had huge problems with. Also my vocabulary developed instantly. After watching it again I already understood most of it, without forgetting, which happens to me quickly, when just writing down vocabulary in a notebook. The grammar in these tasks is very simple, since it is for beginners. That was maybe too easy for me to learn anything, but I guess that's also not the point. The talking speed is perfect. It's a bit slower than casual talk, but not so much, that it sounds completely out of place. Great job! I'm going to continue learning with this platform.

So many people have already said it’s not for beginners at all. I’ll just add that they’ve got the same videos for a few different languages. The content is the same everywhere, just the language differs. And of course the level is “the same” too. It looks like the main goal was attracting people, getting them to watch... Right, why should one create different videos and pay attention to detail if they can just translate and say it’s for beginners? But I liked the video anyway. It’s well-made and useful, especially if you are not an absolute beginner. Thank you guys!

Hey guys, don't worry about the vocab or understanding now. If you're beginner (like me) use this to practice the PRONUNCIATION. Exactly, you only learn to speak a new language if you could pronounce it. So, I'm using this AWESOME video to practice that now, instead of worrying about vocab or something. This comes after. Listen to me, the first step to learn a new language is to learn how to pronunce it first of all. So, just repeat the phrases. Many, many, many times, until to be good. Than then you come back and study the vocab.

Useful overall but I don't like the translations. They aren't exactly what is being said in japanese. If I didn't have a decent grasp of the language and didn't search for words I wasn't familiar with then i'd be totally misdirected. However, if you don't put too much into the english translation and just go by the japanese text then you should be good as long as you have a good basic grasp.

[@XanderLewisMusic]

Yeah, they're extremely loose translations...

[@werewasyo]

yeah i dont know what they were thinking with those

[@Dr.KaitouPhD]

Yeah, I like these, but I agree. I first noticed in the second one.

[@lollipophugo]

I noticed this on the very first example (actually I was really happy with how well I was following the conversation) but the "かわいすぎます" line i took as meaning "those are too cutesy", and the translation was "i'm looking for something more sophisticated" which might be more or less what is being said but it's not very direct when considering newbie learners like myself..

[@Visforelvenshireling]

Isn't it taking into account culturally normative speech? That would dictate that the translation isn't always literal. My advice, (though it looks like you don't need it, so this would be for any other passerby), is this; if you want to get the most from this video, listen once, then read along and look up words you don't know. For a bonus round try pausing it between sentences to practice saying them out loud.

[@iracingtf5051]

The question was not about the new printer but about the old printer. So everything alright. For the second - the english subtitles/translations are loose, so you cant read it line per line and expect that it perfectly resembles what is being sad in japanese.

But since I've started watching anime my skills have improved greatly. And it's not just watching, but using Japanese subtitles and intentionally trying to comprehend what you're taking in. And not all anime is created equal - there's a big difference between Polar Bear Cafe Japanese and Naruto Japanese.

I choose my answers by listening to a few words scattered throughout the sentences 😂 such as "ame," "kumo," etc.

[@babablecksheep]

I surprised because I actually understand a lot. Wow

[@iikurbypinkyii]

This doesn't seem like beginner level. I only knew some words. sad for me BUT I will not give up!!!

[@iikurbypinkyii]

@amy whinehouse I did...for a while...Then life happened.

[@osucaelan7011]

Hey, just messaging because i'm curious if you're still studying.

[@iikurbypinkyii]

@@osucaelan7011 Hey. I still use this video to help with my Japanese. I'm in school fulltime so I can't study Japanese like i really want to. But listening to lessons while you sleep, will make you wake up speaking Japanese! It's the craziest thing!

@@iikurbypinkyii hey I want too learning japanese language when you time you text me on telegram @Akashbaghel32. Its improve you and me japanese skill

[@DoubleOpposite]

@@iikurbypinkyii Listening to japanese when asleep won´t do anything, you are not gonna learn anything while sleeping, that´s the harsh truth. If you can invest hundreds of hours into japanese studies, then by all means you´ll get better, but you´ll need to actively study - an arduous process.

very helpful

[@Malkav65]

I really liked this video, but the English translation for the dialogue in Question 2 (about the printer) is way different from what they say in Japanese All the other translations were solid though 👍

[@mauisazonkingston3050]

So nice

[@thehapki]

This video includes some N4 kanjis and some grammars which is not N5 and this doesn't make this video for beginner. It was a good video for vocabulary and some grammar points but hard for beginners. Thanks to made this video

[@bandagesquanderingmachine679]

At 2:16 He said kore wa chotto kawaii sugiru na Which, I don't think litreally translates to "Im looking for something a bit more sophisticated" I think it would be easier to learn for beginners if all the translations were mostly literal and at least not entirely different.

[@simonmaduxx6777]

This is great, ありがtぷございます, however it is most definitely not for beginners. As well, the speaking is unfortunately too fast for many I suspect. Would also be helpful to have a vocabulary list in the comments or link to a pdf of it, so the audience can listen out for it. かんぱい!

[@hebrewkazu]

EDO Opolyon I think the subtitles are a big help and are great for accommodating the dialogue that sounds like hyper speed to your average beginner... I just wish it was easier to navigate certain portions on KZbin so I can hear them over and over again >_>

[@robbief4096]

If you were to take a Japanese class, this would be in the very first level as far as the listening test goes.

[@werewasyo]

if too fast use a chrome extension to slow down youtube

[@werewasyo]

plugin allows finer control ... :thinking:
