Kids speaking Japanese is always just too adorable, especially polite Japanese

Jeam if you can interview kids more, it's wonderful, because it's more easy to hear and repeat to

[@ericbasco]

My wife says she speaks at a child's level in Japanese. She also says she loves talking to kids because she can understand them a lot easier.

[@onyxia8786]

ya that guy that says he doesn't know Japanese, its bullshit he clearly knows Japanese!! He answers her faster than I could've!!

[@paxe.j.1723]

I can also understand and answer that question with the correct pronunciation very quickly but I can't hold a conversation for shit.

[@satanismiscancer7589]

lovejays Japanese is a spoken fast language. Most sentences are short phrases or even one word stems. It is hard if you don't practice much. Everything is hard when you don't put your ass to work hard for something.

[@nathanielmcintyre6382]

i must say...this is my favorite out of all the easy language series.Please keep it up

[@juliadavidking23]

She is so nice to the little girl. It's lovely.😊

[@weqweasdawe9891]

1:42 she went through that sentence with usian bolt level of speed

[@user-ly9vg7bp6l]

I couldn't catch that XD

[@bboydubc]

That’s because jimejime was the only important part. The rest she just had to roll out of duty to finish the sentence. We do the same in English all the time. The rest is something you’re used to hearing all the time or saying all the time so you don’t pay attention to that part and neither does the listener. They hear it as one single thing

[@shukrantpatil]

@@bboydubc thanks

[@janek.3549]

I think its good to talk about such a spesific subject because then the works are repeaded often enough to catch them. Also, I like it when the question is repeated over and over again. This way I can remember it!

[@chritical1268]

0:31 はい。 "No." I just found that funny.

[@haltdieklappe7972]

Chritical まじで？！

[@johnferguson3110]

you are thinking it in english. Both Japanese and Chinese say yes when they agree with a sentence which includes negative words like "aren't", "don't".

[@Angelotube5000]

Context, since in English she said "you don't need...?" answer as "NO" but in Japanese she said "YES" meaning "CORRECT" or "EXACTLY"

[@magnus00125]

interesting

[@chenyx75]

Mona-san has really gentle & soft voice. I like listening to your dialogues with people.

[@rossriver75]

Wow. I live in Japan and when I see the Japanese at the bottom of the screen while they're talking, I can see why I usually don't catch it - They just slide over those words soo fast.

[@BlackLadyHeart]

aww you guys are so cute. it's so much fun to learn japanese, I am german and I thank you so much. can't wait for episode 3 :D arigato.
