it's fine Miku. You've already taught us lots of things. You deserve to take a breather too you know. You're doing a good job. 😘

[@mikurealjapanese]

Thank you for your kindness. You made me smile:) Thank you. I appreciate it!

[@joaovictors.r.2190]

Just ignore this Jordi and Kason. Anyway, you help us a lot, Miku sensei. In fact, you taught me so much that I can't say how much it mean to me.ほんとにありがとうございました。

[@Neo_Satedoriiii]

@Kason Joziah bruh...

[@iimagemelody]

Thank you Miku sensei. This is what I am looking for how to use "し" And I do hope soon you are teaching how to use "ように" as well please

[@fish4198]

Interesting. I knew the grammatical usage of し but I never really understood how to use it 100% properly in natural conversation. Great video.

[@YUNIEcorn]

ミク先生の動画は分かりやすいし、便利です

[@ohtacosforotakus5159]

The most important and hilarious Japanese lesson I have ever learned.

[@mscabral7878]

It's ok Miku sensei. Asking us to be a patron is nothing compared to what you are doing! Ganbatte!

[@DKUmaro]

みく先生は素敵で楽しい人だし、そんなに面白くて教育的な動画も作ったし、丁寧で真面目な働くし、私たちに謝る。マジかよ。 私たちに謝らないの方がいい。 本当に本当にすごい女の人。 教えてくれてありがとうございます。

[@jssmedialangs]

That's hilarious! Diarrhea is "stomach pee pee" 😂😂 Also, I promised I got more out of this lesson than that. I'm going to try practicing し as well.

[@alantheo45]

In french pipi means to pee!

こちらこそ感謝しています！！！ 今、フィリピンで全国がQuarantineして、コロナウイルスのせいでずっと家にいます。 ミク先生のおかげで毎日が楽しし、つまらない日もないし、KZbinを観ながら沢山情報も学んだし、しかも、コンテンツはめちゃ役立ち、本当にわかりやすいです！今年の2月日本に行った時に、JLPTN4本を買ったけど、説明書はそんなに短くて、結構複雑だと思います。ミク先生の助けを借りて、はっきりと理解することができました！本当にありがとうございます！！！ We really appreciate your effort! I would like to say that your teaching skills is very amazing! Take care always! 🥰

Me too! I was wondering about し. I have heard this so many times but never knew when and how し is used. Thank you, Miku sensei.

I highly recommend the flashcard app anki. It has a bit of a learning curve but it has paid off more than any program I've used

Great lessons, Miku-sensei. Tokorode, another typical English word for "on top of that" is "moreover."

[@carinamarquez434]

What the Heck!!!!! This し is what I been always looking for coz I always heard it. Thank you so much Miku Sensei. But I also heard "おねがいし".　is that a same thing?

[@_____J______]

Don't think it's same thing as you typed only one word "Please" This topic is speaking about "as well" in sentence where you add more meaning So stand alone word means pretty much nothing in this current topic

[@Катерина-м7г8н]

ありがとうございました😃

[@igno4ta]

Your explanations are so good and the videoso easy to follow, Thank you so much

[@JapanDaisukiTTS]

Miku sensei! Can you please do the difference between shi and tari when listing verbs!

[@noxxcaelum]

From the question, I assume you learned that 'shi' and 'tari' are used to list verbs (but 'shi' has the broader usage since 'tari' can only be used with verbs). The difference is, 'shi' is used to 'put stress' onto the list, while 'tari' is used simply to take the examples out from the list and you leave the rest untold because it's too many. From my understanding, 'shi' is used when we want our listener to understand why we're in such a condition (annoyed, exhausted, joyful, interested, fall in love, etc.) so some Japanese teachers tell that 'shi' is used to list multiple reasons. Based on Miku sensei's example, Miku: "Do you like Marco?" Ami: "Yeah. He's kind, has a nice smile, funny, and he's so easy to talk to." < the usage of 'shi' Ami uses 'shi' because Ami lists the reasons why she likes Marco so that Miku could understand Ami's feelings. For example, you just back from your trip to Tokyo and your friend ask you, "What did you do in Tokyo?" If you simply just list what you did there and you've done so much until you couldn't tell them all to your friend, use 'tari'. "I went to Tokyo Tower, ate ramen, and so on (it was too many)." 「東京タワーに行ったり、ラーメン食べたりした。」 (Tokyo Tower ni ittari, ramen tabetari shita) ^ 'so on' here is the basic mean of 'tari'. If you want to stress the list, you want to express you're happy because of what you've done in Tokyo, you want your friend to understand why you're happy, use 'shi'. "I went to Tokyo Tower, and I also ate ramen. (so much I've done, that's why I'm happy)" 「東京タワーにも行ったし、ラーメンも食べた。」 (Tokyo Tower ni mo ittashi, ramen mo tabeta) ^ 'and also' and 'so much I've done so I'm happy' is the expression of 'shi'. But, 'shi' could also mean you list what you've done in Tokyo while remembering because you kind of forget them and you don't want to end your sentence. " I went to Tokyo Tower, umm... I forgot... oh, I also ate ramen." 「東京タワーにも行ったし、、えっと、ラーメンも食べた。」 (Tokyo Tower ni mo ittashi... etto, ramen mo tabeta) ^ 'umm... I forgot... oh, I also' is the expression of 'shi'. Based on those 2 examples, 'shi' could be translated as 'also' or 'as well'. I know it's TMI but in case you wonder, particle 'mo' which means 'also' has a different meaning from 'shi'. 'mo' is used when you simply add something to the list because you completely forget it before and has no intention at all (not stressing it and your listener could forget it afterward), but 'shi' is used when you add something to the list while remembering because you forget it but still want to include it onto the list so you don't want to end your sentence, OR adding the list while stressing it (showing the list as your reasons so that your listener focus more onto the list and understand your condition or feeling, as I've said above). That's why Miku sensei tells us to use 'mo' particle (if needed) when we use 'shi' ( 7:14 ) because 'mo' means you're adding the list, but 'shi' means you're stressing the list. Hope this helps! I'm sorry if it's too long 😅

[@Kokoro-yi5ut]

Very nice video. I have a small question you said on the video the phrase " kyo wa shouji mo shitashi, sentaku mo shitashi kuruma mo aratta" and the same expression in -te case. i have noticed that all the verbs in -shi case are being conjugated one by one, it is not like -te case which the last verb indicates if the verbs in the sentence are in present or past. is this how it works with -shi all the time?
