Yuko sensei, I love your method of teaching Japanese. You make it easy to understand the Grammer and construction of sentences.

[@isabelleblank3614]

I just learned about different counters today from my textbook so this is the perfect timing! Thank you!

[@YukoSensei]

Isabelleさん、I'm glad the lesson was timely and useful. 😊

[@k.p.achininisansala2756]

Woooiwwww. You amazing . Thank you sooo much . I improved my japaneese knowledge from this channel. Specially letters . Thank you sooo much

[@cldoctor7097]

We have a quiz on counters tomorrow and this suddenly came up on my feed. You’re the best, Yuko-sensei!

[@YukoSensei]

Good luck with the quiz! がんばってください。😊

Good morning 🌻

[@grazynafalkowska7747]

Too many numbers in one lesson ,Yuko Sensei. Congratulation on your English.

[@dianapearce961]

Do you have a lesson on locators

[@CeratiGarcia]

Yuko sensei, or anyone really 😅, what if I want to say “there are four men and one car”? How would I say it in Japanese?

[@jessswann5879]

Why does Hinata say "ichi, ni, san, shi,..." when counting members of the audience in Haikyuu? He says "shi" for the number 4. (KZbin video: "Hyper Projection Engeki "Haikyuu!!" Itadaki no Keshiki", at time marker 4:48.)

[@Chan_Fry]

I came here because Duolingo introduced counter words without mentioning that's what they were. But now I'm even more confused. Is "nin" people? Or do we still need "hito" ("san nin hito")?

[@seaquz]

How would you say 20 ?

[@nickinlondon4644]

Honto ni yaku ni tatsu! Arigatou!

[@irfanbulbul]

谢谢老师我是伊帆我是土耳其人

[@dianapearce961]

I’m looking for a lesson on locators, do you have anything ?

[@birdiewritepa5505]

Check her @YukoSensei Playlist, this one: Japanese question words - Where? どこ DOKO

[@saudude3209]

I wonder why we never say "shi ni n" for 4 people, but I bet it's because it's too similar to something offensive ha ha :D Great lesson!

[@JapanesePorcelain]

it's because shi means death as well

[@asimkumardas4197]

I am a Bengali speaking Indian and want to appear N5 Dec 2021 .Please provide the list of Kanji for N5

[@hacchan8403]

Good luck 👍🏻

[@SkyFly19853]

Oh... that's why... That makes sense now... 🤔

[@user-ys3uo5lw8w]

こんにちは、裕子先生。I find it rather interesting that 1 person and 2 people have different readings. Is there a cultural or social reason why that is? Was it a sign of disrespect to use いちにん or ににん?

[@JenovaDoll]

Oh no...

[@samrawittessemadesta2981]

500th like 😁

[@nwakammajeremiah4247]

Hai, San nin gurai imasu

[@radimgabaj4263]

日本に友達が０人います。😢

[@DANGJOS]

It's like the Japanese just love making everything as complicated as possible

[@eduardogaldino8432]

Its like americans with slang: only you use or people that areused to it ... so its not impossible for smart people to learn languages* ....

[@NekuraCa]

いいえ 日本の友達がいません

[@koungmeng]

sad xD

[@YukoSensei]

Nekuraさん、if you are answering the question I posted at the end of the lesson, いいえ、いません is good enough as a response to the question. If you meant to say "I don't have Japanese friends (friends who are Japanese people)" then 日本人の友達がいません is better. Hope this helps!

[@chumjamero8214]

ともだちの日本人がなにもいません。

[@a.l.m.o.]

いいえ、いません😢
