Easy Japanese 3 - Public Transportation

[@thecfclad]

hands down the best host of all the Easy Language series. This is how you properly ask people on the streets and make it interesting all the way till the end. She gives a lot of positive energy and comfortness for the interviewee to respond. Well done Easy Japanese!

[@thumanina]

She's a real good interviewer, I feel.

[@samshah1533]

[@Cmppayne26542]

I wish my public transportation was that good, for me to take a bus it would take an hour and 30 minutes and would drop me off no where near my job. It's pretty much impossible to live without a car where I live at.

[@hvgyhyvfhjuvhjjgfgjfhsdfbr401]

Something I've noticed in Japanese: Why do so many sentences end in "と思います" ? I know what it means, but when you translate these sentences to English it seems unnecessary to include "I think" so often. Is it a cultural thing, or does it have a dual meaning?

[@Bert4826]

It is very cultural. It makes it softer. You are not saying it is this way. You are saying it's just your opinion.

[@sakuraninja9073]

I agree that it's a cultural thing. They are really humble and modest so they seldom say things in a way as "state of fact" to make you feel "you have to take it". Instead they add it in most sentences to avoid sounding "arrogant". It's more obvious when they speak English, since they try to use " I think" in the end of most sentences too. : )

[@Zalmoksis44]

I think most of books on Japanese nowadays use a different transcription system. Like "furui" instead of "hurui". And "~tai" is usually an ending and not a separate word. And "komu n desu" instead of "komun desu".

[@Civ33]

"how long does it take you to commute to work?" "depends but about 30 mins" Me: *Cries in traffic* - tax payers vote against transportation bill for public transit funding Me: *Cries harder in traffic*

in 3:33, what is 'ダイヤって'? couldn't look it up in the dictionary.

[@mmt365]

ダイヤ means a schedule for buses or trains. It comes from ダイヤグラム (diagram).

[@q.s.7777]

@@mmt365 Thank you very much

[@ramen1931]

ダイヤ・・・・・・ダイヤグラムの省略した言葉言葉です。Service Planning Diagram Abbreviation of Diagram　 ダイヤ is train run diagram. I have to beg your pardon as a representative of Japanese people. As you know, Most of Japanese could not understand English at all because of Japan country surrounded by big Pacific Ocean and Japan Ocean so many years isolated from other countries., so Japanese invented katakana instead of English and same time they try to abbreviate the katakana(ダイヤグラム）to simple katakana(ダイヤ）. ダイア also abbreviation of ダイアモンド（diamond) Sorry using Japanese English. I have no experience to visit other countries in my life unfortunately. Thank you very much. 有り難うございました。

sugestão: poderiam colocar a transcrição de uma cor referente com a traução, como por exemplo EU GOSTO na trancrição na cor verde e a tradução também, ai na mesma frase COMER ARROZ ai está parte vocês colocariam de outra cor tanto a transcrição como a tradução.

I think she meant that there IS a wall, and asked for some sort of confirmation to the interviewer by saying じゃないですか？, which in this case means "right?"

Does anyone know what is the meaning of "mitai" in the introduction?

[@gomagoma313]

mitai, or みたい, is added to the antecedent verb, and means "try to do sth" "would like to do sth." In this case, the antecedent verb is "Kiku", or to ask, and the entire phrase means "would like to ask about..." Incidentally, "Kiku" is inflected here to become "kiite" because of "mitai."

[@Parasite2]

+gomagoma313 i thought mitai is like in "something like"

[@gomagoma313]

+Parasite You are right in some cases. When mitai comes after a noun, not a verb, mitai means "like sth."

LBW999 I see you have no idea about learning Japanese. You have no idea what you are talking about. Reading Kanji is so much different than to learning Hanzi. You telling me to read the Kanji with out learning the reading which is so stupid it proves you have no idea what you are talking. Romaji is never a good way to help a person to learn to read Japanese, it never was and never will be.
