Secret of Japanese fluency interview 1: Tere

[@shinki451-n8n]

30% normal conversation 70% そう そうそう

[@majora231]

This is accurate japanese actually

[@amarug]

thats how people talk in japan outside of anime..

[@alexandrialibrary8152]

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂

[@clairepedersen2114]

The rest of my Japanese class wondered what was this そう そうそう I also keep throwing in; happy to know now that that is when I am sounding like a real Japanese! ;-)

[@kevinfelicianne4117]

70%??? Looool jealousy at its best. I bet your Japanese isn’t at her level 🙂🙏🏽

[@MakeChristFamous]

This probably the best video I've seen about studying Japanese in a long time. Been self studying for over and the hardest thing to accomplish is still speaking it confidently, even when i spent 2 weeks in Japan. I'm going to think it and speak it out loud a lot more. thank you!

[@komimia9309]

Why are you attempting to speak a language you don't know? you should listen for atleast 10000 hours before speaking.

[@komimia9309]

@Eric yes

[@ig17]

even when I spent two weeks? EVEN???? WHAT. that's a short period of time, right?

[@vladivanov5500]

​@@komimia9309 If you have the opportunity to test your output, may as well. Input is paramount, but practicing output is the most efficient way to learn to output what you know.

[@Endershock1678]

@Eric I think Komi is just joking around, 10000 hours sounds like a beyond exaggerated number when its known to take around 1000 hours to speak achieve semi-fluency and 10000 hours is about three years assuming you spent an absurd 10 hours a day on it.

[@ross1972]

My cat is quickly picking up 日本語 from me speaking to her she is very good to practice on haha

[@ASHERUISE]

She's gonna be saying "nyaa" soon.

[@vyen9343]

I don't have a cat, but I always say おやすみなさい to my 植物 before going to sleep.

[@juggiegud5071]

IrinPE sorry to ask but what does the kanji that looks similar to 食 but without the arrow head mean?

[@keikei8598]

@@juggiegud5071 良い is a way of saying good! I think its interchangable with いい

[@selommoi7159]

That kanji after nihon what does it mean?

[@craftycarmen1]

Tere has such a wonderful idea to learn Japanese. And she is right about that the only way to become fluent in a language, is to "think" in that language. But it's definitely difficult to change the mindset from being a translator to a speaker. That is why, the idea of watching Japanese shows is so great, because you can follow the words, and remember the structure. In another Japanese-teaching page, I commented the same thing to one of the people in the chat. You can learn a lot by watching Japanese shows, because they have a lot of subtitles in them, so you can not only listen to the words, but you can also follow what is written, and read. And you can find many right here on KZbin. By the way, VS Arashi is one of my favorite Japanese shows (and I'm not at an advanced level).

[@TooManyChoices1]

The problem I find is setting up the language “glue” that without, you can’t speak and make sense. A video over some basic Japanese set phrases that are verbs, modify verbs or clauses like とき(when) 「子供のとき」; or 「ようになる」to reach the point to” , だんだん、日を追うごとに, 色々、全部etc. Things that are very common use daily in Japan to help see how Japanese are suing words. I wanted to say,” I need to learn more words before I can speak in Japanese”, but couldn’t figure out how to say it even though I thought I had all the nouns and the verb, but the “glue” and grammar(particles and order) were missing. 😢 I converted it with an app I have (HelloTalk)... 日本語で話せるようになるには、もっと単語を知る必要があります。Only word I didn’t know was ようになる 🤦‍♂️ but it’s needed to make the rest work.

[@brookestarr9042]

is hello talk good with helping you learn the language?

[@shojogrl]

Yes 100% agree!!! One of my biggest frustrations with learning Japanese.

[@jeffsfolio]

@@brookestarr9042 yes. There are native speakers who want to learn your language for language exchange on HelloTalk. You can type, record speech or set up live conversations to practice. You can post about your day like Facebook and ask for corrections or just talk in general. Italki is similar but the platform is heavily weighted towards paying tutors. Great for intermediate or advanced users who want to take their skills to the next level.

[@Endershock1678]

Honestly, I feel the easiest part for me is putting together the grammar and grammatical "glue". Maybe its because I know languages where everything requires me to understand, and even without a few words, I can put together, but the worst is when I don't know the main subject or verb, because then I can't even narrow down the grammar. Especially if that word I'm missing is an Onomatopoeia and looking it up might not work.

[@elealcubo27]

Bella compatriota, gracias por motivarme . llevo 5 años estudiando y lo hablo muy poco , aunque si entiendo lo que me dicen en Japones. Gracias por compartir y ser ahorita tambien mi inspiracion. Saludos desde Jalisco.

[@franmacgillivray1629]

I so much enjoy watching and rewatching this video interview. "Within a word the Japanese culture exists." So profound and so true. Thanks to both participants.

[@ganeshjalkote2444]

This is one of the best you tube channel to learn real Japanese....Miku sensei give lot of examples, interviewing people who became good at Japanese. It is really helpful

[@jarellemason7291]

These are the kinds of interviews I love to watch.

[@lluviadeidiomas4199]

本当にミク先生のビデオは全部すばらしいですよ。このビデオもすごく有用です。

[@ejgarza5289]

Honestly a gem to find on the internet such real raw talk straight from her on past and struggles. Thank you for your guidance hopefully I'll make it to fluency.

[@she6367]

90%ぐらいじまくなしわかりました。ありがとうございます！！！

[@MeettheTings]

I have a feeling this will be the biggest stepping stone for my Japanese learning! I never thought about thinking in Japanese! I thought, if I talked and talked, it would be enough...but the thinking part....that's GOLD! Thankyou!

[@roumskii482]

I love japanese music and using the lyrics to improve my vocabulary. Dramas are helpful too.

[@Talvisielu]

Such a motivation to watch this video! I have to speak in Spanish now. Siendo mexicano me siento más motivado al ver una paisana hablando un japonés perfecto. Espero llegar a su nivel algún día no muy lejano. Miku, ¿dónde diste clases en México? Saludos...

[@ameliecruz6758]

Tarde pero creo que fue en guadalajara.

[@mikekaz6508]

También soy mexicano. Felicidades a la paisana. Saludos

[@megan8670]

このビデオはとてもhelpfulです。わかりやすいです！

[@japantico3206]

Very interesting video 、I am living in Japan and when I really had contact with the real Japanese I felt like her jeje it doesn't matter if you study 2 years in your country cause when you try to put yu your Japanese in real and daily Japanese conversation it's like OK I don't know Japanese at all, for everyone who is studying Japanese please try to find Japanese friends hnag out with them and speak also study more and watch Japanese tv series read the news etc etc cause. Actually the Japanese wich you learn from this academic school aren't enough of course probably you can speak but like a gramar book so study hard and keep going just look for other options in oder to improve your language learning in Japanese

[@SamanthaElizabeth823]

これは面白いヴィデオ。これは難しいけど私は話せが練習するできる。ありがとうございますみく先生。

[@lakelonely]

Appreciation is the best prize! Great advice. I love learning Japanese, especially because I thought I'd never be able to understand or learn a foreign language. The grammatical rules of my native English confuse me enough but learning the Japanese is helping with both. Watching your videos absolutely helps! I just discovered Arashi because the restrictions their production company had were lifted. I'm sure they've gotten a huge boost with by now being on Twitter, KZbin and Instagram. I've also been watching a lot of the shows they host and even if I can't understand most of it I'm still enjoying watching.

Hi Miku San, within a day I became a real fan of yours. I really don't have words to express my gratitude towards you. You are an amazing teacher. This is the first time I comment a KZbin video and subscribing a channel at the first sight. Tons of thanks.. and I am sure that I am going to Master in the real practical Japanese soon.

[@uycyhimmgr6437]

miku本当にあなたのパフォーマンスが大好きです

[@green--apple]

Just realized that having English subtitles has held me back (maybe they distract me?)! I ignored the subtitles and I understood the conversation pretty naturally :D It's not the first time it has happened either. Every time I've listened to Japanese without subs I get surprised at how much I can understand. It's a pretty cool feeling! Doesn't work for music though, because like subs, the music distracts me and I can't "understand" the language.

[@bassical]

Miku先生、i just chanced upon this video. It’s really good pointers on how to approach studying Japanese, ‘cos I while I can read/write after learning for some years, can’t really converse due to “translating in my head”. Will try out the suggestions which is really helpful. Meantime I tried to complete the mini 「しゅくだい」：このビデオがすごいですね！(私は)今、日本語は勉強します。みく先生、とてもありがとうございます。

[@justinsilver280]

This video was awesome! I watched it with the captions first, then again without reading the captions. It's excellent verbal/visual learning. I'm eager to watch VS Arashi! Gracias a ustedes and thanks for making such useful content! The production was nice and pleasant to watch, as well. Bravo! 🙏

I've studied Japanese for about two years now, I've even lived in Japan for a year as an exchange student with my boyfriend who is Japanese and I visited a Japanese University. You'd think I should be pretty fluent by now but somehow it just doesn't click. I'm also really shy and insecure in general, which doesn't help. It feels like I'm letting down my boyfriend and his family which honestly feels pretty shitty.
