Sorry baby cousin got ahold of phone, I really appreciate how helpful this video is!!
I’m not saying that “this video is too easy” but the fact that I knew everything she was saying made me really happy, it just comes to show that the more you practice the better you’ll remember it. I knew this video was going to be slightly easy but I watched it anyways and I’m glad I did.
For everyone reading this I wish you the bestest of luck in your journey, and right now it may seem hard but trust me you’ll get it sooner than you think. ☺️✨
Japenese is my objective
ありがとうごさいます
How’s your japanese now?
@xavier prince plus they are simple its not impressive to understand it
Thank you so much
People, stop complaining about it being “too basic”. This video is perfect for someone like me who needs these kinds of lessons. Not everyone will get use out of it, but some will. Understand that.
4 Years later and I’m thankful for this comment
Fundamentals are essential to becoming an expert!
Do this magical thing don’t bother? ??
its probably because it is somewhat difficult to find grammar lessons that aren’t the very basics
And the title literally says absolute beginner
This channel is actually helping me a lot in learning japanese as a absolute beginner. ありがとう！
@David Malan you could say mizu kudasai,same meaning and shorter to write!
@San downbad
@все шалом House house what?
Yes you are right but I think “ありがとうございます” will be more suitable here as its an online platform and we don’t really know anyone here. You are doing well as an absolute beginner.
It will make it more clear if we add a comma after はい. I hope I was helpful otherwise sorry for being a bother and having bad english.

Thank you! I planned to watch it and the rewrite it, and here is a timer, so I will not watch the video again, thanks!!!
Thank you!(^^)/
~Arigatou gozaimasu ❤️
I really can’t read kanji so I just rely on small hiragana in the top of the kanji words?
I’m trying to memorize the Kanji ?
It’s okay, lots of people in japan can’t read a newspaper in highschool.
furigana saves lives tbh
I only know a few… like:
G R A S S
that is furikana
I am so grateful for these people taking time out of their lives to make videos to help other people learn.
*どうもありがとうございます！*
@DACRACKING bullshit! when り become れ ?
@Christian Brown Not the most polite form, there is also Keigo
Very wholesome! (it took me 10 seconds to sound out your hiragana but I got there in the end ?)
@Heather Perleberg Same 😀
@Heather Perleberg ikk
Here’s a tip for people who wants to study Japanese. Before going into grammar, i recommended you to memorize a bunch of vocabulary first, it makes learning the grammar a lot easier and smoother.
I would recommend around 5,000 vocabularies for you to memorize.
Dont worry, Japanese vocabularies are usually easy as there are lots of English loan words. Like パイロット(pilot)、トイレ(toilet)
Thank you!! I’m self teaching myself Japanese, finished learning Hiragana and Katakana months and months ago, and has been continuously working on kanji and sentence structure/grammar. This has really helped! Its simple, and it shows how they work and it shows other ones along with to what to place when building a sentence. I’ve been confused for the longest time ever about sentence structure! It seemed so difficult. Now I’m able to understand how to make my own sentences!
I am self teaching myself as well!
Thank you so much this helped me alot but i do have a question.When pronouncing す is it silent sometimes ?like in ちがいます。 In the end why is it pronounced mas instead of masu?
Just the way it is, same as in the verb すき, you do not pronounce the u sound from す
Why is everyone complaining that it’s ‘too basic’? It literally says it in the title that it’s just the basics. Just because it’s too ‘basic’ for you doesn’t mean that it’s useful. Sometimes it’s good to revisit the basics, so stop complaining. If it’s too easy for you, go onto one of the numerous intermediate videos on YouTube. People like me appreciate these videos that go over the basics, so stop calling them useless. They’re not.
@Eduardo Wada Well, it does say “absolute beginners” at the bottom during the entire video, though I can understand if you feel that “all basics” is clickbait.
Sono tori
Its been three years! How is your Japanese.
@Eduardo Wada you know what? there are loads of videos out there that is beyond basics. since you already know the basics, then go to anothet video. stop complaining about a video containing basic words when it literally says “basic”
that’s it!!! you’ve upset us otaku gamers!!! we will wage war on you!!!
Jokes aside, it probably is the otaku gamer types that fetishize Japanese culture and love looking down on others due to their own insecurities. Don’t mind them.
This is by far the most educational channel I encountered. The Japanese lessons they teach here are so informative. This channel is the best!
You guys are doing so good in teaching Japanese the easiest way possible. You are making me learn Japanese grammar, kanji and etc so fast!
THANK YOU SO MUCH!
This is so weird. I was trying to say “Watashi wa Ken desu” out loud for practice cause its my name then this video literally used Ken as an example. Wholesome moment.
i also ken
@JTS- Games and in busuu lol (for ken)
You would probably use “Boku wa” instead of “Watashi wa” since the first one is (usually) for males and watashi can be used by anyone. Or if you are really feeling macho, you can use “Ore wa” instead of “Boku wa”. However, “Ore” is not very polite, IIRC.
@c Boku mo Ken desu (Honto ni arimasen)
@JTS- Games For those that don’t know, “ken” means blade and “hana” means flower.
If it’s too basic , find a new video. This is absolutely perfect for beginners
Make sure you read the video titles clearly. It states “basics” in the title.
you know, it’s good that you almost exclusively use japanese symbols here, it forces me to actually learn them.
i feel priviledged having learned mandarin before this
Agreed. When a video uses both kana and romaji, I usually default to reading the romaji because I’m obviously better at reading it, but I’d much rather get better at reading the kana, so the fact that all the phrases are written in kana (and kanji) is actually really helpful.
Also, if you haven’t learned them yet, I’d highly recommend it. Learning the kana is incredibly helpful, in my opinion. Not only do you know how to read a lot of Japanese, but you also learn how the language is structured and it helps so much with pronounciation.
Plus, they’re not that hard to learn. I learned hiragana and katakana each in less than a day. Obviously, I was still really slow but I was able to read and write all of the characters and understood Japanese much better on a steuctural level, so again, I really recommend learning them first.
This channel has a really useful series/long video for both. There are also really useful apps that can help.
@AuroraAce Plus, it doesn’t even really take that long. Recently, I finished learning Hiragana in about 3 days. It’s relatively easy, and only takes a few hours.
@givemetoast you should learn hiragana and katakana first before you even learn grammar or simple phrases in my opinion
Honestly, my dad picked up Japanese’s from watching dramas (I do to and I speak japanese) but he can’t read (same for me). Luckily I be been watching since I was 5, so I’m pretty fluent
I think I’m really starting to understand this whole pitch accent thing in Japanese. Like, when they said “hajimemashite”, I could hear the low and high pitches. It sounded like [ha – JI – ME – ma – sh’ – TE]. Also, I’m starting to notice that, for certain moras ending in ‘i’ or ‘u’ sounds, when these are pronounced in low pitch, they become into what many English speakers would recognise as a schwa. Meaning, they sort of “disappear”. It’s really rather fascinating. I plan to start learning Mandarin Chinese in two weeks and, hopefully, recognising Japanese pitch accent will lead to recognising and emulating Mandarin Chinese tones.
Thank you for this video!! It is extremely basic exactly what I needed to get started! You all explained it very well and I am looking forward to watching more of your videos!
I love how detailed and full of examples it is. Simply perfect
I love this!
There are so many lessons and videos for intermediate japanese level on youtube. But I’m just starting to learn, so this video is very valuable to me. Thank you japanesepod101 – I appreciate it truly
