I made the right choice when I decided to learn Japanese off of KZbin. 9 months ago I didn't know anything about Japanese, and now after watching a lot of Misa's videos I am 2/5 of the way through JLPT n4. I can watch my favorite anime and have a general idea of what is going on without any subtitles. Thank you so much!

[@prim_manga9885]

This is gonna be me in 9 months 😭 Do you only watch Misa’s videos to get that far? I’m trying to make up not taking Japanese seriously when I was younger 🥲

[@Remmmm9]

​@@prim_manga9885Try watching other KZbin channels

[@Remmmm9]

​@@prim_manga9885recommend a few if you'd like..

[@handsomesquidward151]

@@prim_manga9885 no, Misa's videos are a good complement, but nothing will substitute a proper textbook, e.g. Genki, otherwise you will have gaps in your knowledge

Great lesson, thanks for the video! It might just be my imagination but you seem a bit tired or sad, Misa. I hope everything is alright and you are well! ❤️

Thanks!

Quick review: Taksuan is an adverb that should be used primarily after the particle and before the verb, tatoeba: ~ wo takusan nomimashit. Takusan is prescribed to use with with objects and things. When talking about people use Oi rather: Hito ga oi! Meaning there are a lot of people with a slight nuanced connotation of people more people than a setting can accommodate. Note also when using oi for objects it may have an implied meaning of comparison: "kono machi wa otera ga oi" can suggest subtle shading of say the city has more temples than shrines. Finally, Oozei can be used in lieu of oi when refering to a large group of people: "koko ni wa utsukushii josei ga oozei" And a useful phrase at the end: "Mou taksuan" means enough is enough; I had enough. Minasan, isshoukenmei ganbarimasu!

It's always a pleasure to learn Japanese with you Misa-san! Your explanations are really clear. Plus a tone of example. またね

Then don't. Watch it. Haha I'm just kidding

Miss Misa, thank you from the bottom of my heart for all your lessons, it's helps me a lot, take care so much and have fun. ありがとうございますみささん 😀🤘🐲.

[@kokami16]

This is very helpful!! Thank you so much :D I tend to struggle with this a lot so this video is very appreciated 😭😭

[@gsr4535]

It's Misa, new Misa! Just the last few weeks, I have been watching your beginner kanji videos from a few years ago. They really help! ありがとうございました, みさ先生 ！🙂👍

[@Jadesmorot]

Thanks for the short and sweet video! I think you’re incredible at having your finger on the pulse of what videos need to be made and what learners might be getting wrong already Keep up the good work みさ先生！

[@terminaelegy2144]

Misa you are an absolute treasure and a huge part of my Japanese learning journey. Thank you for all that you do.

[@zeemon9623]

Love the new mic. The contents of your lessons have always been great and now the audio quality also keeps up.

[@thr33keys]

Ah, I was wondering if that was a new mic. I agree that the audio quality sounds better.

[@Zecuto]

Thank you for all the videos you make, it helps with keeping learning Japanese !

[@megsullivan]

本当にありがとうございます, 先生! I've studied Japanese for years but never really understood the difference between たくさん and 多い. みさ先生のレッスンは本当にためになります,!

[@FinDi90]

For my ears the use of "in the middle" (as in, before the verb; I seem to have realized that now, with this video presenting that fact for me) just sounded like the most natural place ever. Typicly/often, I believe it is also stressed, isn't it? I can imagine an anime character using with this certain kind of way to say it. Might just be my imagination tough...

[@rain7746]

Missed Misa videos ❤ ❤

[@acebobbomb]

Welcome back, Misa-San, It’s been a long time, and I thought you were done with the channel, but thank God, you came back…….😁😁😁😁😁

[@AthenaShirou]

I'd like to thank you for sharing your knowledge with us. The most part of your videos are long but, you teach very well the japanese nuances and we don't find this in the books. Please, keep doing the good job!

[@hectoremiliojimenez]

Nice outfit! I enjoy watching your new videos on KZbin, and on Twitch.

[@abellopez1586]

Thank you misa 🙂

[@osonhodeleon]

Another great video. Thank you Sensei.

[@filu_desu]

Thank you for this video Misa! You rock! Absolutely the BEST language teacher on KZbin. Your outfit was really cute in this video, you look beautiful!.. And that's in English, so no need to worry about particles and comparisons, you just look really nice, that's all :) Anyway, I really appreciate all of the examples that you provide, it makes practicing my own sentence constructions a lot easier. Thank you for all your time and efforts, it really sets you apart from the rest. I hope you are doing well, Misa.. We all love you!

これたくさん楽しかった。ありがとございます

[@cavelinguam6444]

Yay! Misa is the best.

[@jssmedialangs]

I constantly use たくさんの because that's how I learned it, but I'm definitely going to use it the other way from now on. 😅 Misa...I know this is a rather taboo topic, but I have struggled to find anyone teaching on it. 😣 Could you PLEASE teach vocab for talking about our menstrual cycle (period) in Japanese? It really sucks that I don't have the words to discuss it in Japanese. 😫 ミサ先生の動画を観るとたくさん学びます。いつも教えてくれてありがとうございます！

[@UzumakiHarutoJP]

I learned a few things about it from talking to a Japanese woman online for a while although I'm a guy: • They use acronyms from English like PMS and PMDD too • 「生理」 [せいり] is used for menstruation or menstruation period, even though technically it literally means "physiology", which is kinda funny to think about but yeah • If you're on your period, you say 「生理中」 which translates directly to "currently physiology" or more naturally "currently on my period" (and you can use 中 on many things like 「PMDD中」) • If you don't wanna use PMS (which can generally be used interchangeably), you can use 「生理前」 to talk about the premenstrual period • You can use 「重い」 to describe a heavy [PMS, possibly menstruation as well] • When you "got on your period", it's 「生理になった」, you can also say it started by saying 「生理が始まった」, and you can even say 生理が来た to say the period has come • I don't know if it's unique to my friend, but she calls a pad 「生理ナプキン」 or "period napkin" • 食欲不振になる[しょくよくふしんになる] - become anorexic, which I add because that's a symptom she has from her period so it might be useful if its a symptom for anyone else • 「生理痛」 is menstrual cramps, so to say you have menstrual cramps is 「生理痛はある」 I'll add more stuff if I find anything more useful, but hope this helps anyone needing to know :) and I'm aware Misa can definitely do a better video as a woman so hopefully she will make that for you all if there isn't a good one out there already

[@shadowwvfx]

11:00で、なんで「日本は」って使いますか？「日本で」っての方がいいと思いました😵‍💫 ありがとうございますみさ先生！このチャンネルはすごく有用ですよ！🙂

[@shion3948]

Because Nihon is the subject here. As for Japan, there are many shrines. You can also say Nihon ni wa - as for in Japan? It's a common construction for sentences like there is x in y. 部屋にはぬいぐるみがあります。私は猫がいます。レストランではタバコを吸わないでください は in these sentences marks what place, who I'm talking about. 日本は神社がたくさんあります here im talking about the state of japan (subject). Speaking of Japan, there are many shrines in it. Like, Japan is the main focus and then you add other things that you notice/think about it. Hope you understand

[@susanravella6261]

I just checked out the Twitch thingy. I used to love Baldur's Gate. This should be fun! Excellent lesson, as always, Misa!

[@wieland3373]

10:35 why is it 日本は and not に or には because its a place where somthing exists (ある)

[@Mawral]

Appreciate this a lot, many thanks.

[@onomatopeira]

Hi, Misa! I love your video lessons! They're excellent, very well explained, very complete, with lots of different references and excellent editing and subtitles. I have been learning a lot. Besides, I think you're an incredibly beautiful and sweet girl, 😍with very cute expressions (I just love the way the corner of your mouth rises when you say certain expressions). 😵‍💫😵Anyway... I like anime but I'm not a gamer and I don't know anything about online games. Even so, I went to see this "twitch". For me, who doesn't play games, I have to admit it's a bit tedious. I'd like to know if you have any videos with Japanese tips and mini-lessons on that twitch channel. Is there any way to search for those specific videos without having to watch entire afternoons and evenings of games? Don't get me wrong. I think it's a lot of fun for those who know about the subject, but for those who don't... Ah, I discovered that we don't live very far from each other (I thought you lived in Japan): it turns out you live in Holland (Netherlands) and I live in Portugal (having friends who live in Germany, near the Dutch border). [just a curious fact] 🤭 Congratulations on your work, your videos and all the best. Kisses! 😘

[@SM-ok3sz]

7:19 That English is wrong. It should be “I frequently use a camera”

[@alfjones6377]

It is not wrong, it is another way of saying a camera is used often. It is a negligible aspect of the useful video to quibble over, especially when her English is correct.

[@FinDi90]

So... Could one say "Nihon ni wa" plaplaplaa... ? I am doing some duolingo rigth now and it gave me a sentence "there are many department stores in Shibuya." Duo usually includes both partiles ni and wa, and this seems to be "the correct answer" in duo. I guess it's not nesessary, but I was just wondering about it. also, quite the coinsidence 😄

It’s the Te-form plus いる or います 例えば、「最近、日本語を勉強しています」 頑張ってね😊

[@Ray_Wood_1984]

💘👋😃 this may be useful information dear... I've viewed nearly every video for about 6 years now, react often and have notifications turned on for most platforms you're on (I don't use Twitch). Unfortunately, it STILL took the algorithm on here 7 days to show me this video was published 😢. Thank you for your hard work and all the time you put in! 🙇‍♂️ Hopefully this terrible algorithm system is fixed soon. 🔆🌱🌌📚💞☘🎶

I just realized they are always changing things in Canada for lgtbq+ people, but there has been no respect given to the Asians.
