My Japanese is Rusty! in Japanese┃The Native Way

[@Wesfelkins]

thank you for taking the time to colorize your videos!

[@AtticusStount]

It´s called post-production.

[@Wesfelkins]

@@AtticusStount wow you're so smart

[@TheyCallMeSpin]

I haven't finished some of your earlier more basic Japanese videos yet so I just wanted to stop by and say that you're videos are among the best for helping me with learning Japanese. Especially appreciate you giving examples and time for us to try to translate the examples before giving us the answer. Feels like I have my own personal tutor. Thank you!

Misa is truly the g.o.a.t. when it comes to Japanese learning resources 授業はいつもためになります

[@DecorationShoe]

@Odysseus 2.0 Good thing you are here.

[@patrickbateman7157]

When I want to give up my Japanese, then there is a new video of Misa and I'm 100% motivated again. She's the only textbook/podcast/tutor I need. Anything else just feels like waste of time now. And well, would I lie if I hadn't mentioned...that it's also a pleasure to the eye and ear. Besides her superb teaching method, she's also an inspiring person. I'm so grateful. Thank you -- now I can watch the new video :-)

[@icanwatchthevideos]

I'm shocked... I was actually looking this up this morning, only a few hours before your video came out!

[@jzisser9]

Ironically, you will become less rusty at Japanese by learning how to say you're rusty at Japanese.

[@genomerc]

@Mr Fishfinger mnemonics can help, or using srs method

[@genomerc]

@Mr Fishfinger Its a system. Here is how it works, maybe a website that uses the system will show you a word and allow you to look at it as long as you need to, to memorize it, then, it will make you answer what the vocab word or kanji is in 2 hours, then 4, then the time between each time you are asked what this kanji or word is gets longer, forcing you to pull it out of your memory, which helps you to remember it longer. Websites that use this system are memrise and wanikani. It's really helpful. Also it doesn't require you to keep studying that word for minutes at a time, so yeah. Wanikani helps with kanji, and memrise helps with whatever, including japanese, so maybe try it out. (Wanikani allows you to try its first 3 levels for free, you can take as long as you need to for them, because it is an srs system so its going to take a while, it will teach you 86 kanji, over 100 vocab, and radicals so I definitely recommend it, and because of wanikani I can remember almost 200 kanji, and over 400 vocab words, so yeah)

[@radimgabaj4263]

@Mr Fishfinger This is my case with Korean, but not with Japanese

[@genomerc]

@Mr Fishfinger Trust me its really good, also if you dont know what radicals are, they can help with the mnemonics used, as well as making more complicated kanji look a little easier

[@sebastiendumais4246]

Misa-sensei, you are a very good teacher. I'm taking private separate lessons, but I always think that your courses are well structured, with very good examples and well focused. I also like the occasional incursion into Japanese culture that you put into your lessons. It makes it very enjoyable 😁

[@sonjacarrie8527]

I’m a new subscriber and you are absolutely the best. I’ve been learning a TON from you lately. Thanks for taking the time to teach us and explain everything in detail. I’m sure it isn’t easy! 😊

[@somewhatjp]

really cool to see the way you fit in a lot of more advanced vocab, but with the base of the lesson being more beginner focused

[@cactustactics]

I think adding more short videos into the mix would be good! Your longer ones are fantastic and go into so much detail, but sometimes people don't have the time for a full lesson, or potential new viewers might skip over a longer video - so having some shorter ones gives people options, it's nice!

[@janabroflovski2572]

[@ranguy1379]

You are amazing as a teacher, but lately I am getting burnt out watching your videos, even though I haven't lost the motivation to learn Japanese. So here's a suggestion. I think the problem might be that you stay in your room, so everything is very static. How about teaching us Japanese vlogging style. Just, you know, teach us while walking in the park or something you know. Less static. But you are still the best teacher I have access to. You explain really well.

[@scoop8436]

Misa is just pure amazing 😍

[@salvadorsarmiento2202]

I relate to this. I’ve been studying Japanese for 4-5 years and I’m proficient but I’ve never been to Japan and I live in America so there are not many chances to use it. No one here speaks it

[@makeouthill3014]

[@GXrevolution96]

I was wondering. Could you use also use the verb 落ちる in this context? For example, would a sentence like "日本語のスキルが少し落ちます" be natural?

[@icanwatchthevideos]

She uses the verb 落ちる at 8:04 but the way you wrote it does not sound natural. You would not use the dictionary form (ochiru/ochimasu) in this context because the tense is wrong, take a look at her example. It's like saying "My Japanese skill is get worse" vs "getting worse" or "has gotten worse"

[@GXrevolution96]

@@icanwatchthevideos Yh, I just realized the mistake. Although, I am wondering why uses the verb てくる when there are adverbs like 次第に and どんどん that express "gradually

[@icanwatchthevideos]

@@GXrevolution96 can you rephrase your question? I'm not sure I understand it completely

[@icanwatchthevideos]

@@GXrevolution96 if you're asking "why would you use てくる when adverbs like だんだん exist," it's because you actually need to use them together in order to get the idea across. For example, if you said 日本語が上手になってきました, you would be communicating "[my] Japanese got good," but there is no sense of the manner with which it got good. If you said 日本語がだんだん上手になってきました, that would communicate that it gradually got better. The sense of being gradual is not implied in the first example. You may be wondering why you can't just say 日本語がだんだん上手になった... That sentence doesn't look like it has incorrect grammar to me (I could be wrong), but in terms of nuance なってくる sounds way better because it's "becoming" in the sense of a change over time. Maybe that answered your question?
