I was taught that "Otsukare" was a greeting you gave when you're meeting a friend who went out of their way to see you. Like if they came to see you right after work or had a busy schedule but still made time to meet you. It was to show that you appreciate them making time for you even though they had other obligations.

Otsukaresamadesu…ta? Was the first phase a coworker taught me when I first got to Japan and I was always told to really only say it to my coworkers as I was leaving? I’m embarrassed to say I didn’t learn a lot while I was there but with the possibility of going back in a few years I’m trying to learn now.

My friend taught me that Otsukaresamadesu is like saying "thank you for your hard work" and in a work setting is usually exchanged between coworkers nearing the end of the day. Just a general way to show respect and appreciation to your fellow coworkers but used like a generic greeting in the afternoon. Osewaninarimashita is similar however that's more so thanking someone specifically for their help or the work/task that they accomplished not just showing respect for their general work ehtic.
When I lived in Japan I picked up on adding “あ” before greetings and other phrases. After moving back to the US it took a while for me to stop adding “あ” before things 😂

Edit: I also want to add in this other way to say hi, though I guess it's more like "I'm back" or "I'm home"- "tadaima", and the response is "okaeri", welcome home.

This is one of the best language breakdown videos I've ever seen. Of course its extremely rudimentary Japanese but the structure and layup is phenomenal. Enough explanation around the word and what the actual *direct translation* is. This helps enormously with understanding how and why you should use them a certain way instead of just teaching you you should. This makes it easier to remember. But its also not enough to overwhelm you with information. Probably helps that your English is *very* good. It also feels very casual and friendly as many other videos feels like I'm back in elementary school. The kind of "take note, we removing on" kinda feel. This video is very well paced, not rushed at all. Top it off with a hint of humor is like sprinkles on top of a perfect cake. I knew pretty much all of these phrases already, I've been fascinated by Samurai movies, books and Anime for 25-30 years. Just recently I've had enough time to actually start looking into the language. (Ever since TMNT xD) I still learned quite a bit from this video, mostly WHY you only say them at specific times and what they REALLY mean. It explains a lot and makes me also understand why there are such huge variations on a lot of subtitles xD Yes, I liked the video. Yes, I subscribed to your channel. Yes, I'm looking forward to diving into the rest of your content. Excellent video. Arigatou Gozaimasu

Being half japanese and having a full japanese mother really helps with this! I already sort of inferred the context for a lot of these greetings because of how we talked.

But my linguistic still is very scattered and I regret not learning it holistically when I was a kid.

Having 3 Japanese kids, it is REALLY TOUGH to bring up a child with a native level in Japanese if you're in America or some other country. With all my kids, we tried to use exclusively Japanese with them before 5 years old. All TV shows, preschool, piano lessons, baseball lessons -- all in Japanese. After starting (US) kindergarten, every Saturday was full-day Japanese Saturday school. To give you a gauge of how far we went with it, my middle son was in ESL classes until third grade. Now, the only one who really comes off as a native would be my oldest (though the other two are pretty fluent in Japanese, it doesn't fool Japanese people)

I'm always buffled by the similarities between Japan and Italy. For point 6, we have something that's very close. It's kinda formal but it's not uncommon among friends too. It's not a greeting (for that we use "Ciao") but while entering someone's house (right after greeting them) we say "Permesso" which translates in English "may I come in?" but it's not actually a question and no answer is expected unless in very formal contexts. It's something you say to be polite when crossing the door, it's like you're acknowledging you're causing some sort of disturbance, and in that I find it very similar in spirit to the Japanese greeting. It's actually common to say that *after* they invite you in (and that's why "may I come in?" doesn't work - you can use that to reply to "come in!"). It's also customary to bring sweets or wine (while not a hard rule, a man is more likely to bring chocolates to a woman and wine/alcohol to a man). A full cake usually if you're invited for dinner (maybe you tell them beforehand) or wine. Wine and/or flowers from a man for a woman is kinda a delicate matter, there are nuances there that rival with Japanese speech tones among individuals.

私も好き日本語 because of the beauty in how speech carries a lot of emotion yet none at the same time I moved to フランス which started my life-long hobby of learning 言語, and Japanese is my 第五 after Chinese.

This is so cool! I speak Farsi as my mother tongue since I'm Iranian. Learning English was painful cuz we just don't got much in common when it comes to culture. But learning Japanese is going great cause I feel like I have a better understanding behind the concepts, as our culctures are very similar! Like we literally have a phrase for that "I know it's bothering for you that I'm coming to your house, but I'm coming in" in Farsi :D

With the "Ah" word or also "ēto" I find it similar to how English has filler words but we use 'like' and 'um'. Sometimes theres negative stereotypes with overuse (ex. vallygirl filler words) but to most native speakers they are very natural and make you feel at ease I feel this is very similar.

NES here again. Terrific lesson! FYI, “Long time no see” is fine between equals but we wouldn’t NORMALLY say it to an elder or superior. Also, love the soundclip that can also be heard at the start of many RedLetterMedia vids. Cheers, Sayaka-Sensei!
@suburbanbanshee2 жыл бұрын
The amusing thing is that "long time no see" came into English as a literal translation from Chinese (I think Mandarin?), so we are using Chinese/English to explain Japanese! Ha!

It's so surprising how culturally similar Egypt is to Japan when it comes to greetings. We also say such things like "sorry for bothering you" when meeting someone or when visiting someone's house. I thought it's only in Egypt or the middle east. Thank you for the info😊 great video!
