Just like they have to learn 3000 different meanings and interesting sentence structure, you have to do the same with any language. English has the most words that mean different things depending on which part of the country your in/from. Every language seems more difficult when just starting, but as time continues and we consistently practice we gain confidence and it seems easier :) as a 26 yr old, I am still looking up the definitions to english words or new slang terms that are developed.. I think that'll continue with any language for the rest of our lives hahaha
@@memzworld5515 According to an article I found in a language blog, English isn’t even close to the most unique words. From memory, English = 170,000 words Japanese = 500,000 words Korean = 1,100,000 words I think Korean was most, then Japanese, then a few between that and English.
I know, I mastered english vocabulary quite fast and proficiently as it was my native language, but I still notice many English native speakers still can't understand the intricacies and caveats that actually encapsulate the manifestation of the english language and dialect. Consequently, I've found picking up Katakana and Hiragana quite easy. For some reason the shapes of the letters just stick for me after a couple attempts to memorize it, same for their pronunciations. Can't wait to practice more.
@@berrak9463 omg! You're giving me a sign to study again. 😅 Unfortunately, im stuck at katakana. I got busy for something. I wish i really have a teacher. Sorry for not meeting your expectations.
Mystic Productions 日を追うごとに、日本語が少しずつわかってきます。hi wo ou gotoni, nihongoga sukoshizutsu waka_te kimasu Day by day I get closer to understanding Japanese. And perfect practice makes perfect. Practice incorrectly and it won’t help🤕... Lol 😝
Okay, so wow. Oh my gosh This was so, so, like so helpful! The most simple explanation, and use of words, yet it's so very effective when learning each alphabet, and how to put them together. Thank you si much, eek! 👌😄
Katakana カタカナ is really interesting in that it also incorporates loan words from even European languages like English into Japanese. One such example is the word Google, which is written as Gūguru グーグル in Katakana.
i was stoned by the great numbers of kanji to be learned. 😂😂😂 i just finished hiragana. i guess i have more to go. why did i ever chose Japanese language to learn 😶😶😶 .
This video is so well done. Excellent presentation and explanation. Sensei seems very professional and kind. A perfect teacher. I hope she is making a fortune doing this! She deserves it. 🙏
This is amazing , thank you I was so confused other teachers didnt explain the difference between the 3 and just immediately start teaching them so I never understood the difference and Im someone who cant learn without understanding the reason , ❤❤
Kanji are like antonyms and synonyms of english and once you start learning hiragana and katakana you can learn kanji side by side as you would have learned antonyms and synonyms once
@@monkman1639 i wish, I kind of got into a bad mental state for a bit and stopped practicing. I havent tried to learn since, its been a couple of months
I find Japanese refreshingly simple in its structure. The pronounciation of their syllables is consistent, they never break their own rules ("I before E except after C", anyone?), and most every syllable is a combo of one consonant followed by one vowel, with the exceptions of the kana for a, e, i, o, u, and n, which makes the language feel very structured.
I wouldn't say nuanced, I would rather say inefficient xD she says the sentence hahahaha could not make sense without the kanji, but if you just put spaces in between words, like almost every european-rooted language does, it's already way easier to understand. And there is no use for katakanas, if you can write the sound with katakanas, you can write it as well in hiraganas. Everything about japanese alphabet is about history. They wanted to copy China that was very powerful, so they introduced the Kanjis..
In French and English, we use our own alphabet to try and reproduce the sounds that words from outside makes. We don't write "Sushi" or "Kebab" with an entirely new alphabet...
I think Japanese is really awesome because it makes it easier to tell apart homynyms. A lot of people I've spoken to about learning Japanese have been annoyed by there being three different writing systems to learn, but it actually makes it much more organized and somehow extremely satisfying to learn in my opinion :D I have a small question. Do you think it's important to learn the strokes for kanji if I'm mainly going to be typing and speaking? It adds a lot of time to my learning schedule and I often wish I could just skip it. ありがとうございます、先生！

@@june-again Heya! Thanks for the response! I am actually learning Japanese, started two weeks ago and just about got my head mastered on Hiragana and Katakana. I did spend some time researching the best way to read kanji so now I have resolved to memorising the Onyomi and Kunyomi readings of the characters I come across, I have 50 of them nailed so far. I think I understand when and where to use both types of readings so I can proceed to going through them all. I heard that the Japanese ministry of education actually advised only 2136 characters can be used in publications so it shouldn't take that long to consume them all!!! What I am trying to avoid is to learn about the 241 radicals I keep hearing about!!! 😅.

I am tired of reading Romaji when watching anime, I wanna switch the subtitles to full on Nihon go!!!! 😁👍 That said I am starting to recognise kanji when used in popular media and i am getting better deciphering Katakana and the scattered Hiragana employed here and there.

Don’t even get me started in how confusing Vietnamese and Korean are. Wow. Respect to anyone who started with English/European native languages who learn Asian languages fluently or vice versa.
Everybody saying that this just made Japanese more difficult lol I feel like it just opened my eyes.. I was wondering why not just use hiragana, or why not use spaces? But you explained very well.. Now I just got to rely on my memory haha obrigado pelo video! 有難うございます。
I recently started learning Japanese and always wondered why both hiragana and katakana was needed (because different symbols but same sound). I always thought "why"?, that's just more words to learn and more work. But now I know and this was very interesting! Wow. Thank you so much Yuko teacher 🤗
Kanji. You will probably only see those others in documents or information papers(papers that explain something, e.g, menus and instructions book/how to use books).
With the word kawaii for example, I know the general spelling of it is かわいい, but I've heard that people often use 可愛い as well and even the katakana カワイイ. I know there technically isn't a difference, it's all the same word. But in what context do you use each ..? Is the Kanji more formal, maybe used when speaking to someone you aren't familiar with or around someone older than you? Is Katakana for younger people or kids? Or is it just personal preference and doesn't actually matter? I'm just wondering so I know what to use haha.

With the word kawaii for example, I know the general spelling of it is かわいい, but I've heard that people often use 可愛い as well and even the katakana カワイイ. I know there technically isn't a difference, it's all the same word. But in what context do you use each ..? Is the Kanji more formal, maybe used when speaking to someone you aren't familiar with or around someone older than you? Is Katakana for younger people or kids? Or is it just personal preference and doesn't actually matter? I'm just wondering so I know what to use haha.
Good question, that was never answered lol
