Japanese Business Speech 敬語 (KEIGO)┃尊敬語 (sonkei-go - Respectful), 謙譲語 (kenjou-go - Humble)

[@JapaneseAmmowithMisa]

You'll also learn the mistakes that Japanese people often make when speaking to customers... :D Who here dares to correct the native speakers' mistakes? xD

[@fskaraoketv]

I was once told by a native that he himself sometimes has a hard time using Sonkeigo haha. Your vids have always been so helpful. ありがとうございます

it not just for busines.. it all about formal talk..... this is how in many country did to sagagent people.. rich and poor..

[@TrickingBattles]

I accept .. 17:05 written in hira "Nasaimasu" english translated as nasari-masu ... mistake located !

[@CamRK21]

Tricking Battles I’m not native Japanese, however looking at conjugation websites both “nasarimasu” and “nasaimasu” are acceptable. Don’t rely on my answers but that’s just what I saw. 🤷‍♂️

I already feel nervous when ordering food even in my native language. Imagine how much more anxiety I would feel if it is in Japanese Keigo. 😨😨😨

[@joebroadinjapan]

Thank you so much for this video! I was so confused the first time I went to a restaurant in Japan. The waitress spoke to me and I just went blank because I had no idea what was said. 😭 She very patiently helped me understand and spoke casually. I felt so bad, because her boss seemed to be upset that she spoke to me casually. 😱

[@alsabater]

Yes please more keigo videos. ミサ先生ありがとうございます、いつも。💓🤗

[@silviafady76]

When Japanese customers came to our office, I couldn’t speak keigo but normal masu-form: they were super polite, didn’t point it out or looked disappointed and liked how I spoke Japanese, so lovely of them 🥰🥰🥰

[@fumomofumosarum5893]

well, can't expect all that much from gaijins after all... glad if they speak 1-2 words japanese at all.

[@pluviophile1988]

It's more of a bonus if you use keigo and shows an even higher status of respect and humility. The same can occur in English- normal polite to very polite (Applebees waiter vs Ritz carlton waiter lol)

[@VengeanceSinX]

The concept of using different verbs to express the exact same sentence in a piloting tone will forever elude me. In English, "I am going to the shop" is the same no matter who you're talking to

This is the first "Japanese Ammo" video I have seen and I found it extremely useful. The lesson was extremely clear and succinct, thank you. It is comforting to know that even Japanese find keigo confusing, which I did not know before. BWT, Misa, your English diction and phrasing are perfect! 👌

みさ　先生、 First, it is good to see that you seem to be feeling better. Second, this video REALLY helped to make more sense out of the various levels of polite speech, the explanation of the different verbs was particularly informative. In trying to learn Japanese, it’s been confusing hearing so many ways to express the same thing. This video put a lot of that information into a very compact reference that I will watch over again to help it sink in. いつもいつも有益な授業を教えてくれてありがとう！

From what I understand, generally, O comes before Japanese native words, and Go is before chinese derived words

I remember trying to learn these in Japanese school. My head exploded. When i panic, i speak half casual and half polite because brain can't decide which to use 😂 例えば: 私 は昼ごはんに寿司を食べるけど、時間がありませので早い食べます。i often combine -ru and -masu when my brain panics. But if i have alcohol in me, it's fine. 😂 Still can't learn humble and respectful. Will try to learn those later...again 😄
