Nagoya Dialect! & Aerial Yoga!

There are many types of dialects in Japan. Even native Japanese may not be able to understand the dialect another area. Nagoya, where we live, has its own dialect, too. We call it NAGOYA BEN.I hope this video helps you understand a little bit of NAGOYA BEN. I added some footages of Aeriall Yoga. Oh! And sorry about the sound! (_ _)

The video was great! I'm going to Nagoya as an exchange student, I can't wait to learn the dialect:)

[@tomokotomoko]

It's fun! 😊👍　Thanks for watching!

[@jaytea4390]

thanks for this video! My mum's Japanese, from the nagoya area, so I always speak japanese with a nagoya dialect. Others Japanese speakers in the UK might not understand me xD and I find it difficult learning Japanese online because standard Japanese doesn't feel so 'natural' to me

[@tomokotomoko]

Nagoya dialect has unique accents. It's natural to me. 😉😊

[@emikoneko9346]

my mum grew up in nagoya ! :D

+tomoko tomoko Thanks Tomoko, I didn't know that the different Prefectures had different Dialects. I love the Aerial yoga, but I am too heavy right now to even attempt it. LOL Love you and Victors videos.

[@tomokotomoko]

Tania LoNero Thank you always, Tania! :)

[@VerbaleMondo]

Hallo Tomoko-sama ! I like your video regardless of how does it sounds like. Every single that you make are useful and Fun and I love them and I love your channel.

[@eddenoy321]

+tomoko tomoko Tomoko san,...... Nagoya ben sounds like Hiroshima ben !

[@tomokotomoko]

Ed Denoy Oh, I know hiroshima ben 'jaken'. ^^

[@Nipponing]

Wow, didn't know there was such a distinct Nagoya dialect. Interesting. I like it.

[@tomokotomoko]

+Swedish Otaku Thank you! Let's tweet something in Nagoya dialect! ;-)

[@vanmaren962]

As a fellow Nagoyan I need to learn these!

[@tomokotomoko]

+vanmaren962 Thank you for watching!

[@Hardmanferdead]

Watching this makes me wonder what the Nagoya dialect would look like in “Nihon Shuwa”(Japanese signing), because just like spoken language there’s different dialects in sign language.

[@tomokotomoko]

Shuwa is usually showing standard Japanese.

[@UFOBobTV]

Between the walking and talking, and the yoga class this was a very interesting video. Thanks for posting.

[@tomokotomoko]

+UFO Bob Thanks, Bob!!

[@user-el7rd8pp1l]

This was a very interesting video Tomoko-san! The aerial yoga is new to me, never heard of it until now, but looks fun

[@tomokotomoko]

+メキシコ人 It's from NY! There is one studio in Nagoya! :)

[@silviemonk5556]

Aerial yoga looks awesome!! My back feels better just watching you do it, Tomoko.

[@tomokotomoko]

+Silvie Monk Hi! Silvie! by just watching? OK! I will show you more!! :)

[@silviemonk5556]

+tomoko tomoko Yes! Please do more. I'm almost tempted to hang some fabric from my ceiling. Maybe you can give us lessons on KZbin!!

[@tomokotomoko]

Silvie Monk hahaha I'm just thinking I want some fabric to hang... ^^

[@mistersmith158]

You are very smart tomoko. That aerial yoga is amazing. You have to pretty strong to do that. That is more than stretching. I just noticed you have instagram; I will check yours out tomoko. Always nice to see your videos tomoko!!!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Michael Smith Thank you, Michael! I felt I should put on abdominal muscles more! ;-)

[@sitkatr]

Thank you, Tomoko, Victor! Very interesting and useful for practicing Japanese...

[@tomokotomoko]

+sitkatr Thank you for watching!! :)

[@alanva5127]

Thank you for the video Tomoko! My wife is from Nagoya, so I will surprise her with some of these words. :)

[@tomokotomoko]

+Alan Va Yes, please surprise her! :)

[@kain91939]

great video Tomoko! That yoga looks fun.

[@tomokotomoko]

+kain91939 Thank you for watching!

[@Nifuruc]

OK!今から名古屋弁と福井弁は一番好きな方言だがねww... ^^ see, what I did there? I did it wrong for sure XD thanks again for the video, Tomoko-Sensei!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Nifuruc You already got Nagoya ben ! :) 福井弁も好きなのね！いつもありがとう^^

[@60frederick]

There are some very interesting exercises. I like the combination of the Nagoya dialect and the yoga exercises! Question: If your friend from Osaka and you talk together, do you do it in your dialect or in the "proper" Japanese? If both of you speak your own dialect, do you understand eachother? I am looking forward to your next video!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Frederick König Thanks you, Frederick! Yes, we talk in each dialect. and we can understand each other. :)

[@josephmeetstravel9762]

Very cool, I kind of like the Nagoya dialect

[@tomokotomoko]

+Joseph Meets Travel I am glad!!

[@RenManinJapan]

Very cool that you were allowed to film class! 👍🏻🙏🏻 nice lesson! You forgot Eegane!! = it's good! 😬

[@tomokotomoko]

+RenMan_inJapan Yes! The second time, they allowed. I used MY GOPRO! with tripod. ;-)

[@JennaNoManga]

I am going to send the video to my husband to see if he gets it haha Aerial yoga is impressive 😄

[@tomokotomoko]

+Cutejapanvids I use abdominal muscles more than general yoga. Thanks for watching!

[@TexasWench]

That aerial yoga looks crazy. Is that your secret to staying so adorable, Tomoko? I like hearing all these different dialects in your videos. In America it feels very standard, it kind of makes me curious about our own language here. Or English, in particular.

[@tomokotomoko]

+crappychan It's not crazy. ^^ I just like upside down...^^

[@LucasMusser]

I wish I could find a yoga class around or at least have a bigger living room so I can do it myself

[@tomokotomoko]

+Lucas Musser I wish I have a bigger room, too... When it becomes warmer, I want to do yoga outside!

[@Luculencia]

Eh it's weird that the words / phrases are different in each dialect... it's not just an accent difference (pronunciation of words) but the actual written words that are different too. Is the nagoyan dialect's special phrases considered slang and disapproved of?

[@tomokotomoko]

Yes, not only accent but also written words are different... For example, desu → dagyaa, / dagane, shiteiru→ shitoru, etc... There are many Nagoya dialects. Old people use it often. And They can understand standard Japanese.

[@ryankleffman3647]

I could barely do regular yoga when I tried, I think that aerial yoga would kill me haha. Great video!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Ryan Kleffman That aerial yoga is more like core-training. :)

[@rebekaporter2974]

Thanks for all the neat information!!! I once did hot yoga if you know what that is! I don't think I'm flexible enough fro aerial yoga!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Rebeka Porter I like hot yoga!! The room is stinky! lol It's a little different from general yoga. They create the style. but it came from the same origin.

[@itsmefhmiq5349]

[@tomokotomoko]

Nagoya Dialect? or Talk with Victor? 🙄😁

[@itsmefhmiq5349]

@@tomokotomoko both 😊😊

[@Gimmeabreakman]

I am so jealous that you are doing aerial yoga!!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Gimmeabreakman You can do it, Victor! ;-)　Thank you for helping me with my English! :)

[@1Blaine32]

Tomoko, I enjoyed your Aerial Yoga very much. I felt energized. Part from the stretching, part from your enthusiasm. Speaking of enthusiasm, although I like Victor and his videos, next time you do a video together, ask him to try to act more excited. It was almost as if he was being dragged around by his wife forced to do something he didn’t want to do. Haha. Again, enjoyed the video and both of you.

[@tomokotomoko]

+10 Days haha ^^ more excited! I'll ask him! Thank you!

[@Bill23799]

Konnichiwa Tomoko. Wow the aerial Yoga looked very interesting. It seems by hanging you may also get benefit of relieving compression on your spine and help if a person has pressure on sciatic nerve. Haha you look like performer in " Cirque du Soleil " Zees ees zee French Circus without ze animal. ( zees was my phoney French accent )

[@tomokotomoko]

+Bill23799 French Circus?! hahaha ^^ Thank you always, Bill!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Bill23799 I'd like to see them!!

[@chewchewpark4786]

Wow that is so amazing, I could never do yoga. It would be like asking a T-Rex to pick up something you dropped on the floor.

[@tomokotomoko]

+Chandler Nickles hahaha^^ I think it's easier than you would think. I like 'upside down'. :)

[@ballouksalim9384]

Wow ! Very interesting and informative! The one thing I can say is Japanese is very different from Riffian, my native language!

[@tomokotomoko]

+Ballouk Salim haha^^ So different! Thank you always, Salim!

[@Jungoize]

How often do you exercise yoga,Tomoko san?

[@tomokotomoko]

+Zhan ZS I practice yoga everyday at home, and go to school 3 times a week till I get the certification.

[@DanWhyte]

Tomoko the sound is a little muffled it is hard to hear during the walking part.

[@tomokotomoko]

+Dan “WhyteeDan” Whyte Yes, Sorry about the sound. (_ _) Next time I will do it better. :)

[@DanWhyte]

It is okay beside that it is a great video it funny how americans calls the different ways we speak accents and in Japan there are called dialects.

[@randomizednamme]

+Dan “WhyteeDan” Whyte Well accents are the way that you pronounce words while dialects are words or speech patterns that are used in different areas. So there is a difference between a "British accent" and a "British dialect"

+tomoko tomoko Doeryaa umyaa! ^_^

[@tomokotomoko]

+RedCircleDreams Gooooood!!

[@HectorTheCollector]

I have heard some people say "Watakshi" instead of "Watashi." Is that some sort of dialect?

[@Nifuruc]

+Hector Desu (ヘクターです) yes and no... it depends on the person who says it... it's usually 私 watashi... but the same kanji can be pronounced watakushi... it's usually used by older people... (I guess because I've just heard older people say it) and it sounds very polite... as for younger girls... they might say "atashi" and mean the same but it sounds cute... I've also heard washi and other variations... so - some are dialect and some are related to politeness, gender and situation...

[@tomokotomoko]

+Nifuruc Your answer is perfect!! Thank you, Nifuruc! :)

[@tomokotomoko]

+Hector Desu (ヘクターです) Watakushi is really polite way, and we use it for example, in a public speech, conference. and old people tend to use 'watakushi'.

Hi Tomoko Tomoko, 智子智子さんお元気ですか？ いつものように、あなたが優れています すばらしい フランスでも、多くの方言があります I heard of Nagoya, for the first time, in Haruki MURAKAMI’s novel : Colorless Tsukuru Tazaki, which, in Japanese, is something like this: 色彩 を 持たない 多崎 つくる と 彼 の巡礼 の 都市 ヨガはお茶の私のカップではありません パリからのご挨拶
