Jendrej He is not saying he is a language, he is saying he is a NATIVE SPEAKER of a language. Altough "english" is a language, in this case it is acting as an adjective. Eventos ir he said "I'm English" that would mean he is from England.
The amount of effort you put into these videos Misa is impressive! Such in depth explanations, and translating all of the subtitles not only in both English and Japanese, but also hiragana, katakana, AND Kanji! And color coded! Thank you Misa for all the work you do!
Informative as always. You're really one of the best RUclipsrs out there when it comes to Japanese and I have learned a lot from your videos. Thanks for the lesson! :D
Your explanation stands from learner's perspective rather than teacher's. Each of your video worths multiple thumbs-up not just one! Thank you Misa-sensei!
Excellent video, I love all your series! I do find the roumaji incredibly distracting so it's great to see the change of making that script a smaller font, that really helps so thank you! Love the respect that the zombies and robots get, that made me laugh in a good way. Fun, informative video as always, I appreciate your hard work!
Good explanation! I'm particularly impressed that you went down the zombie/robot route! ;-) I hadn't realised you'd use いる with humanoid robots, but ある with non-humanoid robots. Makes sense! :-)
I really like the idea of shorter videos because its really easy to get back to if I forgot anything. So I'm excited to see what else is coming! :D Oh by the way, is 男 also considered rude like 女?
I love your videos in general, but this one is just fantastic. Where else can you learn whether zombies and robots are considered alive for the purpose of picking aru or iru? Awesome!
Thank you so much for your effort!! I'm studying Japanese by myself for two years. I have some textbooks but honestly your videos are helping more 💖 First I watching your videos later I studying with books. Also I taking notes when I watching your lessons. I really appreciate you, thank you so much everything! 💖💖
Hola misa sensei , estoy reforzando mi japonés gracias a tus vídeos, muchísimas gracias por el esfuerzo que colocas por hacer que comprendamos de la más sencilla manera, te mando un fuerte abrazo desde México.
You're so helpful!^^ I have a question: Do you really always pronounce "wo" as o? I think I heard some Japanese people saying wo, or at least you heard a bit of the w.
Awesome video, Misa. I did follow you both on Insta and Twitter :) (though I don't even use these apps, I did it just because I like you ^_^) Thank you for your videos, I'm learning a lot. I find it VERY creepy that Japanese talk about robots with いる。
Your video helped me a lot!😄 I am Brazilian and this differences are very similar to what happened in my mother language so it was simple for me to understand what didn’t happened in English that there is just on verb for express both (there is and being) thx!!😄😄😄
10:57 Just a reminder. Capcom established the infected zombie with Resident Evil, which are not undead (like they were with Romero's zombies). I'm gonna say that Iru is the right term for the modern day zombie.
じゃない is just the negation colloquial present of だ copula which is why it means it’s not or not = and が marks the subject aka the doer of the action which is why りんごがない means there isn’t a apple or apple is not being since the apple is marked by が
hi misa-sensei I have been watching your videos you have a great way of explaining. there also great to refresh the basics. I was wondering if you would make a video breaking down some more advanced and difficult grammar I'd would be very interest (you might be progresivly getting there ) たにかくこのビデオも有難うございますねぇまた見ます!
its better to start with the kana in the first moment you are start learning japanese. otherwise its harder to switch ;) and the kana are really super easy. after a couple of days learning them, you can read them like the latin alphabet ;)
I would love to see an explanation for the difference between 新しい and 新たな in a future video (unless it's not a common mistake...maybe I'm the only one who doesn't know).
Oh my god ! You are just to good to be true ! I can't describe how great you are and how grateful I am for all this !!!! Thanks a million ! You are the one who truly spread the amazing Japanese culture.... 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌸🌸🌸🌸
Misa, I really appreciate your efforts in making these videos. They are very thorough and informative. I would like to ask if you have any suggestions for beginners as far as developing a strategy for learning Japanese. I get overwhelmed with one aspect or another regarding grammar, vocabulary, listening skills, and writing. Would You have a suggestion on what to focus on first? How do children learn in the first years of school? I have been trying a sort of immersion method by watching TV shows, videos like yours, apps on my phone, writing anything I can down in a notebook but I feel scrambled and random. I was watching your absolute beginner series but got lost around the 7th or 8th video...maybe I didn't put enough "homework" in. Maybe as a suggestion, you could "assign" homework...conjugate these 10 words...negate these 2 sentences formally and informally...things like that. It may help guiding us when we are not watching a video. Anyway, you are doing a wonderful job with these videos. I always look forward to new ones.
One of the good explanation between ある and いる I've found is like this - if it can moves by itself then いる if not then ある :) This is also perfectly fine for rather borderline things like spirit (is it alive? I'd say no, can it moves by itself? hell yes - いる) or Tree (is it alive? a lot of cultures will tell you yes! can it moves by itself? no :), so ある)
Thanks a lot for your videos you are awesome for making these tutorials and trying to teach people Japanese I will keep watching all the videos you upload in the future too!^^
Hey misa! I've actually learned quite a bit of Japanese but I really like to watch your videos, it really helps me remember because im out of practice! also I kinda do learn new things or understand different perspectives. I think your way of teaching is really unique! Thank you for your efforts °^°
I learned a lot from Misa-sensei's videos ! but i still rely on google translate when constructing sentence. I'm a beginner ! いつもありがとう!レソンはいいです!おつかれ!!!♥
I think いる vs ある is more animated vs unanimated objects, rather living vs not living. So trees which are living beings are ある because they can't move but if you would speak about the walking trees from Lord of the Rings should become いる. For robots like said in the video it's tricky where the border line lies between controlled, moving like a machine and seeing a robot really moving independently. For corpse ある shows even it was once a being that could move so animated (いる), it can no longer so becomes ある. For a person in coma though, I think いる will be used even they can't move. Because using ある for a person in coma would sound really cold and brutal. (but here I'm not 100% sure)
Misa, question. How come you don't color code the Latin-based alphabet Japanese words like you do with the Kanji Japanese and English words, so that we can know which alphabetic Japanese words correspond with which English word?
I find this video way easier (considering then Japanese knowledge level) than any other of your videos. For me these are the absolute basics and I've already learned so much from your videos that this doesn't really seem necessary to explain for anyone who has seen your previous lessons. I feel like maybe you could classify it as absolute beginner or something similar ;) But I do think its a great idea to have simpler matters explained in shorter videos as I also some times find myself not having time to watch another one of your lessons even if I want to. And we all know how awesome you are with thorough explanations in those longer videos but I sometimes wish you did shorter vids as well
Best Japanese channel
I hope you are at a intermediate level now by watching her videos.
I like your channel because I'm not a english native language so I'm learning two languanges in one time 😄
じゃ、 またね バイバイ みさ先生
Samurai Kid 侍キッド "english native speaker" sounds better than "english mother language" btw :)
It’s still wrong. If you say you are a language, it means you are not human. 🤧
Jendrej He is not saying he is a language, he is saying he is a NATIVE SPEAKER of a language. Altough "english" is a language, in this case it is acting as an adjective. Eventos ir he said "I'm English" that would mean he is from England.
Jendrej Oh I see, he wrote "english native language" instead of "english native speaker".
"I’m not an English native language" → both words (English and native) describe the word language.
Well, whatever, it’s just wrong.
The amount of effort you put into these videos Misa is impressive! Such in depth explanations, and translating all of the subtitles not only in both English and Japanese, but also hiragana, katakana, AND Kanji! And color coded! Thank you Misa for all the work you do!
So hyped for this series of videos :D Thanks Misa Sensei ♥
Arigatou ^_^
Informative as always. You're really one of the best RUclipsrs out there when it comes to Japanese and I have learned a lot from your videos. Thanks for the lesson! :D
I’m a Yonsei that’s been studying Japanese on and off my whole life. Watching your videos when I’m not taking classes has helped immensely.
Your explanation stands from learner's perspective rather than teacher's. Each of your video worths multiple thumbs-up not just one! Thank you Misa-sensei!
Holy moly, Misa さんは最高の日本語教師👍👍
こんにちは Misa 先生!
初めてあなたのヴィデオお見ました !
4月から日本語勉強スタートます.
Your video is useful and relevant in my opinion ! Keep it up 先生 ! :D
This was really helpful! Every time I watch your videos, I'm here furiously writing down all the information you give. Thank you so much Misa-sensei!
Excellent video, I love all your series! I do find the roumaji incredibly distracting so it's great to see the change of making that script a smaller font, that really helps so thank you! Love the respect that the zombies and robots get, that made me laugh in a good way. Fun, informative video as always, I appreciate your hard work!
Good explanation! I'm particularly impressed that you went down the zombie/robot route! ;-) I hadn't realised you'd use いる with humanoid robots, but ある with non-humanoid robots. Makes sense! :-)
I'm excited for more of these videos.
Thank you for this super-useful lesson! None of my grammar books cover this topic in enough detail.
So lucky to have randomly found this channel! So resourceful!
この授業は役に立ちます。また、ありがとうございますみさ先生!
This was the best explanation I have found, ありがとう みささん
Not even one dislike, well, that's near perfection ! Excellent video, thank you for the explanations, keep it up !
For 1.1K that's still a really good ratio !
ありがとうございます、 みささん。
This is going to be a great series! Very helpful for beginners and intermediate to avoid sticking to mistakes. Thank you!
Thanks for all your work, passion, and intelligence: a superb pedagogical linguist.
説明の仕方が上手ですね!
Your videos are getting consistantly better.
I don't believe I ever made that mistake, but it's a nice in depth lesson! Thank you!
Thank you for watching :)
i know it's kinda randomly asking but does anybody know of a good place to stream new series online ?
It was mutch more practical than a 40min video I think. Thank you it was a good idea. Enough information for one day.
Yes Misa your lessons are very helpful. Thankyou
You're CHANNEL IS THE BEST and your TEACHING IS CRYSTAL CLEAR.
LOVE U, SENSEI 😘
I really like the idea of shorter videos because its really easy to get back to if I forgot anything. So I'm excited to see what else is coming! :D
Oh by the way, is 男 also considered rude like 女?

その文法を手伝ってくれてありがとうございました!
Really handy ! One of my many problems confusing ja and ga . Arigatou Misa sensei
Very useful as always, keep the ammo up, personally like the video abit shorter but don't mind the other way either. Just a nice change
Thank you for another very helpful video, as always. I love the short format.
I was about to say "what about dead people/animals, robots, and AI?", but you answered it! Thanks!
I'll start being a jounin patreon on august, thank you for the lessons, Misa, they help me A LOT!! :3
Also, hi from Brazil o/
勉強を教えてくれて、ありがとう。
You're so helpful!^^ I have a question: Do you really always pronounce "wo" as o? I think I heard some Japanese people saying wo, or at least you heard a bit of the w.
these lessons are the best!
Awesome video, Misa. I did follow you both on Insta and Twitter :) (though I don't even use these apps, I did it just because I like you ^_^)
Thank you for your videos, I'm learning a lot.
I find it VERY creepy that Japanese talk about robots with いる。
The furigana is very helpful, I don't know much kanji but I'm trying to get better with grammar :) ありがとうございました!
みささん!いいのクラス!お疲れ様です!ʕ•ٹ•ʔ I just followed you
Your video helped me a lot!😄 I am Brazilian and this differences are very similar to what happened in my mother language so it was simple for me to understand what didn’t happened in English that there is just on verb for express both (there is and being) thx!!😄😄😄
Practice makes perfect. I used to always confuse いる with ある but now it's 簡単です
Dayum!
Now it's is easy
Ryan Chiu 黙れアホ
YES OF THE YES FOR THIS SERIESSSSS MORE VIDEOS OF MISA SENSEI IS COMINGGGGG ♥️♥️♥️
Thank you so much for these lessons! I'm learning a lot
いつもありがとうございます❤️❤️❤️💜💙💙💙
I love to watch your channel. I learn everyday from you
Thank you so much Thanks for your time thanks for your lesson
Thanks. I really enjoyed this and I think the length was good too.
Thanks a lot!!
Somehow this is not explained properly in textbooks and even by private tutors. Especially difference between ga nai and wa nai
ありがとうございました😃!
10:57 Just a reminder. Capcom established the infected zombie with Resident Evil, which are not undead (like they were with Romero's zombies). I'm gonna say that Iru is the right term for the modern day zombie.
thank you for your lesson!
Just re read your blog about referring to yourself! Forgot how good Japanese ammo was (I didn't have notifications on!) Put them on now!
いつもありがとうございます。
日本は 暑くてけど、ビデオ頑張ってください :D
じゃない is just the negation colloquial present of だ copula which is why it means it’s not or not = and が marks the subject aka the doer of the action which is why りんごがない means there isn’t a apple or apple is not being since the apple is marked by が
In Japanese Grammar Guide by Tae Kim, the author says that ある we use with inanimate objects and いる with animate ones.
Thanks for the iru/aru!!! I’ve been doing it wrong!
hi misa-sensei I have been watching your videos you have a great way of explaining. there also great to refresh the basics. I was wondering if you would make a video breaking down some more advanced and difficult grammar I'd would be very interest (you might be progresivly getting there )
たにかくこのビデオも有難うございますねぇまた見ます!
So helpful, thank you!
Thanks for including the romaji in the subtitles
Thank you for watching :)
its better to start with the kana in the first moment you are start learning japanese. otherwise its harder to switch ;) and the kana are really super easy. after a couple of days learning them, you can read them like the latin alphabet ;)
I'm working on it - my Hirigana is decent but the Katakana and Kanji is still basically non-existent. Thanks for the advice.
I would love to see an explanation for the difference between 新しい and 新たな in a future video (unless it's not a common mistake...maybe I'm the only one who doesn't know).
Misa sensei... arigatou gozaimas for adding romanji pronounciation :)
Oh my god ! You are just to good to be true ! I can't describe how great you are and how grateful I am for all this !!!! Thanks a million ! You are the one who truly spread the amazing Japanese culture.... 🌈🌈🌈🌈🌸🌸🌸🌸

I'm a beginner !
いつもありがとう!レソンはいいです!おつかれ!!!♥
Roland Pada わたしも😂
ありがとうございました先生。
Thanks so much helped a ton!
Very helpful tips
I think with ある/いる it more like inanimate vs animated. Because plants are living things but can't move by themselves so living but in-animated.
Thanks! that was very helpful!
how to regard zombies and humanoids ☺ thank you for your always informative and in-depth series 🌼
Great channel...!
I think いる vs ある is more animated vs unanimated objects, rather living vs not living.
So trees which are living beings are ある because they can't move but if you would speak about the walking trees from Lord of the Rings should become いる.

Thank you soo much for your lessons!!
Thanks you
みさ先生ありがとう。could you make a video about how to say " your videos are great" " awesome video", "you are the best" and others in Japanese way.
Oh man, I bet 女 in place of 女の人 might cause some trouble to foreign speakers.
