To be fair, most native English speakers are not only monolingual, but they also often don't know the grammar of their own language. I mean, the fact that they often make mistakes like mixing up its/it's, use apostrophes to pluralize nouns, etc. is already sad enough.

I have never left a comment on YT in my entire life, but I had to let you know that as a Japanese I was absolutely flabbergasted by your unbelievably masterful command of the Japanese language. I don't think I have ever heard a foreigner speak it so well. In fact, you speak it much better than I do on every single level: pronounciation, vocabulary, prosody... and I really mean it (100% 本音, not 建前 !). I'm currently learning Russian so I know all too well how much talent and effort it takes to be able to reach such an impressive level of competence. You have my utmost respect🙌 and I can't wait to see more from you!

One thing I noticed about foreign Japanese speakers on KZbin is that they're hiiiighly self critical of their language skills, which is albeit strange, but also understandable. Japanese language is a very hard language to learn for western learners, so there's a great deal of technical learning attached to it and you can't really slack off in areas and still be good. Kind of like math - you need to know the previous step thoroughly to be able to do the next. On the other hand, I personally I don't strive for "perfection" in languages. I want to be able to speak and write a language professionally, and I want to be able to pronounce and talk close to native, but to me not sounding EXACTLY like native speakers doesn't really bother me. I speak 4 languages now and it's a part of the charm to me, to sound a bit off on certain things.

It's a cultural thing. You do not show off your skills in Japan, and in fact lower them so you appear humble. She knows she's incredible but she also understands and is following japanese cultural norms. Anyone who says they have good Japanese or are 'fluent' may have studied the language but are completely missing the cultural of side of things. That's why you'll see people downplay their abilities. I lived in Japan 10 years ago for several years and the culture became such a part of me that many of these aspects are still a part of me today.

Totally agree! But even my Japanese friends all think they speak terrible English, even though they have no issue communicating at full speed with a native speaker. I’m always impressed. I hope to get that good at Japanese :P also it’s a shame that people see their own accents as a flaw. Like you say, it’s part of the charm, and there are many benefits and things to be proud about keeping an accent too. I would love to see a video of accents speaking fluent Japanese, be that regional dialects or foreigners. As it can be quite hard to hear accents in languages that you are not familiar with.

WOW, what beautiful Japanese! :O And great tips! One side note on shadowing: I was taught to do this a little differently in language school. For shadowing, I was taught to press play on an audio, and then immediately, without hesitation and without really thinking, copy what they are saying right as they are saying it. Rather than listening to a whole sentence and then stopping and repeating it, I was taught to speak half a beat after the audio. It's supposed to help your mouth get in to the rhythm of speaking without your brain getting in the way. It's pretty intense and takes immense concentration! It really helps most with pronunciation and inflection. You can do this with anything! News, while watching a movie, or with JLPT study materials, etc.
@runscopeable3 жыл бұрын
Indeed, got taught the same shadowing technique! I think it only works well if you have an ear for the language though. Otherwise it’s just a mis mash of sounds that never make sense how many times you try.

Japanese learner here, I started learning japanese because I loved the language, the culture, and nearly everything to do with japan, and it is true that you need to really like and love the language and wanting to learn more than having to learn, but I think this is not enough tho... Yes, the more motivated you feel, the better, but also, I would recommend to not set your expectations too high, you have to realize your learning a way of communication, its never going to be easy, because no matter how much you like it, they're complex, so realize that you need time and patience, and also, do not feel discoureged when you see people learn to speak a language in a ridiculous amount of time, theres plenty of videos of people showing how they speak a language in 3 months or similiar, each person is going to take a different amount of time to get to learn to a certain extent, and thats ok!.. btw I do not speak japanese by any means, Ive barely started!! I just thought its crucial for people not to feel desmotivated or discoureged for not being able to communicate yet in a certain language! good luck to all!

6:13 I wouldn’t recommend this to anyone who’s just starting out in Japanese. Immersion is a really really great method, but to make immersion much less painful, you’ll need a basic foundation. Also, I oppose what she said about immersing without subtitles (when you’re starting out). Use JP subs when you watch a movie or anime, to help it become more comprehensible. 以上だ。Other than that, I pretty much agree with almost everything she says.
not only is your pronunciation perfect, but your use of words is perfect as well. its one thing to pass the n1 exam and its another thing to actually be able to understand and properly apply what you've learned i forgot to write what I actually came here to comment: your proper use of japanese, like keigo and phrases are very natural and sound just like a native japanese. natural keigo is so hard especially when you haven't grown up in that environment and being able to grasp the knowledge shows how intelligent you are
