I’ve been learning the Kanji, so it was nice to see those Kanji in sentences. It would be very helpful if I could find books with sentences using the Kanji I’m learning. It would be so much easier to remember them if I could use them in a practical context. Everything I find has a lot of Kanji that I haven’t learned yet.

[@VoylinsLife]

I would recommend Satori reader, if I remember forrectly, they have a feature to only show the kanji which you already know and the other will be just hiragana or kanji with furigana ;)

[@gracewood6768]

Anither question, what is the difference of ので、 and 　から? Both of then can be used for reasoning right?

[@VoylinsLife]

Short explanation is: ので = for objective causes から = for subjective causes If talking about objects, use ので. If you are talking about feelings, opinions, .... use から ; )

[@gracewood6768]

Btw, if its a plant, we should use があります right? It states in my japanese dictionary (japanese basic grammar dictionary -- the famous grammar dictionary haha)

[@donydymas9468]

Sensei what's the difference between この And これ? Gimme example plizzzzz:)

[@VoylinsLife]

If you know the の (particle) then この becomes more clear to understand. この+ noun. これ is basically the noun in itself. Examples: このぺんは私のです。 = This pen is my pen. これはペンです。= This is a pen これ = This この＋noun = This (noun) このペン = This pen このパソコン = This computer The の particle is a possessive particle. After この、その、あの、どの You always HAVE to put a noun I hope this helps ;) Good luck learning Japanese ;)

うぽつ！

[@nightnday146]

I'm still confused on the difference between で へ and に? can someone please explain?

[@VoylinsLife]

First of all, let me explain how to use に. We use に to indicate the direction of the movement. We often use it with 来ます(come) or 行きます (go)or 帰ります(go back). へ also means the direction of the movement, so you can use it in a same way. 駅へ行く(えきへいく)=駅に行く(えきにいく)going to the station. But i would say the difference between へ and に is ....へ emphasizes its direction , on the other hand にemphasizes its point of the place or purposes. に also can be used to say“ time”, or “the place where you keep staying at”. ○7時に行きます。 I will leave at 7 ○お風呂に入ります。 I will take a bath We use で as ”at” not “to” like に or へ. ○学校でランチを食べました。 we had a lunch at school ✕駅で行きました ○駅へ行きました ○駅に行きました we went to the station Other way of using で is as “by”and “reason.” ○包丁で野菜を切ります。 I cut vegetables by/with the knife ○病気で休みます。 I am calling in sick I hope this explanation will be helpful for you.

[@veryonlineman]

You can't really boil down all the n5 grammar into a 10 minute video but good effort. I would say the first 13 chapters of Minna no nihongo don't really require much work once you've finished them. Rest of the chapters require a ton of practice to be able to use them effectively while speaking

[@WanganTunedKeiCar]

I'm personally struggling to work using Minna no Nihongo. I have a translations and explanations document, but do you have any tips?

[@VoylinsLife]

Minna no Nihongo is a very good book, but for self studying it requires a lot more work compared to Genki. My tips are, go slowly. Languahe learning is not a race and if you go too fast you will strugle and more easily forget things. Second tip, use flashcards, you ccan use anything like Anki, Memrise or paper. Each day, before you start studying using the books, review your flashcards. I remember that I kept starting over with those books, but I was able to finish them by not limiting myself to.those books. Yes they are great learning materials, but always remember that there is are multiple ways of studying/learning Japanese. I also used Human Japanese, other Memrise courses, JLPT study materials, Videos, websites, ... Most importantly, don't give up. 😉

[@veryonlineman]

@@WanganTunedKeiCar Well you can't really aquire proficiency from Minna no nihongo books alone. I studied from an institute. If we were just going by those books, more than half the students wouldn't even be able to pass N4. Those books are good from practice but not enough for self study. After that, you should pick up marugoto and irodori books. Students drastically improve after finishing the marugoto and irodori stuff and easily pass n4 and have much higher listening and speaking ability

“This is not true. It’s actually a very interesting language and easy to learn once you understand the Japanese way of thinking.” You do anyone watching your videos a huge disservice by saying these lies; learning any language is difficult for most people unless they are naturally gifted, and you will never completely understand the Japanese way of thinking because you’re not Japanese, nor have you been born and raised here.

[@VoylinsLife]

I'm sorry that you feel this way. I still stand behind what I said when I made this video. I am not naturally gifted but I put in a lot of time and effort, hence why I know 3 languages now. Sory that you disagree with this positive/supportive way of thinking.
