My first trip to Japan in 2023, I would freeze when trying to speak my limited Japanese. I'd get nervous and say," choto matte kudasai " while grabbing my phone for Google translate. Second trip I was more comfortable in conversations. While riding in a rickshaw in asakusa (mii chan), the driver was helping me with reading Kanji. Next trip, I'll be using my phone less, as studying japanese continues. Loved your video/podcast. ❤❤ 2023年に初めて日本に旅行したとき、限られた日本語を話そうとすると固まってしまいます。私は緊張して、Google翻訳のために私の電話をつかみながら「choto matte kudasai」と言います。 2回目の旅行では、会話が楽になりました。浅草(みいちゃん)で人力車に乗っている間、運転手さんが漢字を読むのを手伝ってくれました。 次の旅行では、日本語の勉強が続くので、携帯電話の使用を減らすつもりです。 あなたのアイデア/ポッドキャストが大好きでした。 ❤❤ Looking forward to traveling to Kamakura next.❤❤ 次は鎌倉への旅行が楽しみです。 ❤❤
I really like the speed you speak at in these podcasts, and the clarity of your speech too - much easier to follow, understand and shadow that your sometimes faster paced videos. They’re marvellous too ;)
My experience in Japan is as you described. Japanese people, especially women, are very shy. That being said, of the few short conversations I've ever had on a train were with women who helped me navigate the train system - which I greatly appreciated. The Japanese train system is fantastic, but it's very intimidating the first few times I used it. このビデオを共有してくれてありがとう
Honestly, although the video was good, it didn't tackle the topics I expected. It was more about "Where" to meet Japanese people and make friends, and not "How". What I'm more interested about is how to further deepen the relationships with Japanese acquaintances I have. How to gauge if they're interested in being friends or not? Should I be more proactive in inviting them to hang out more often? How far ahead should I try to schedule? What are some do's and don'ts that are specific to Japanese culture? Any tips that Japanese people would like to see? etc.
I am learning Japanese and your videos are really good for listening practice because you don't speak fast and I can concentrate on what are you saying, and tnx for the nice tips when I hopefully move to Japan
Great content Yuriko, fantastic podcast. meeting new people is always fun 🙏I believe respect is key & to be honest being yourself is the way forward ,try not to impress too much. Allow conversations to evolve naturally … if it doesn’t, it’s not meant to be ✌️
Thank you Yuriko! When I visit, I intend to reach out for conversation and friendship as my first priority. It will be fun, frustrating, and rewarding!
This video was incredibly insightful and well-presented! The explanations were clear, and the content was engaging from start to finish. Great job! I started Japanese in selt-study a while back but gave it up to due to a lack of time. Maybe I will pick up some evening classes when the time permits. Keep up the good work ❤❤❤
ご理解とご説明に感謝いたします. One-sided dynamics will quickly burns out or swing the pendulum in contrast of the other after some time. I agree that you need balance and harmony in all parts of life. Including work, relations and friendships across. Interesting takes and points. I deeply believe more people need to rethink their approach on these apps overall. What they show and how you represent yourself overall. Personally I would not like people to judge me primarily by looks or the language I speak as a first gateway for communication. I believe people can do better than that. Keep creating and I look forward to listen to more! どうもありがとうございます！
My bar hoping days are long over 😂 I’ll leave that to the younger crowd. I was wondering if you could bring up the subject of how to go about different ways to hire guides from local areas in Japan . You have mentioned that you do it aswell as others . I have a brother in law who photographs around the world and he always hires a guide for the spots he wishes to go and photograph. I think it makes sense to have a plan rather to waste precious time . Your thoughts? Thanks for your time n content extremely helpful 😁
amazing how much different you look like now! for me you looks more serious really even with this ears I'm not so good at making compliments but I would like to compliment you
Thank you for another helpful, insightful, and practical podcast. I like your other videos too, and this style video is great content for your channel. English speaking viewers will connect with the similar awkwardness in breaking through the language barrier. I would say to any Japanese viewers that english speakers will appreciate any attempt to communicate with them. They should take advantage of english speakers tendency to be more outgoing in a positive way if that makes sense. Great video Yurichan, I love the headphones so cute, and I look forward to what you do next. I see lots of positive reactions to this video in your comments. 今回も有益で洞察力に富んだ実践的なポッドキャストをありがとうございました。 あなたの他の動画も好きです。このスタイルの動画はあなたのチャンネルにとって素晴らしいコンテンツです。 英語を話す視聴者は、この問題を突破する際に同様のぎこちなさを感じるでしょう。言葉の壁。 日本の視聴者に言いたいのは、英語を話す人は彼らとコミュニケーションを取ろうとするあらゆる試みを歓迎するだろう、ということです。 英語話者がより社交的になる傾向を、それが理にかなっているのであれば、ポジティブな意味で利用する必要があります。 素晴らしいビデオです。ゆりちゃん、ヘッドフォンがとても可愛くて大好きです。今後の活躍を楽しみにしています。 あなたのコメントには、このビデオに対する多くの肯定的な反応が見られます。
You are very pleasant to see and listen to. I think you would make all sorts of friends wherever you go, whether you're there in Japan or here in the U.S.A. you're very pretty as well. Have a great day ❤
I am having trouble thinking of a serious comment, so I'll just repeat my suggestion about a podcast topic: stories! Or perhaps, take it as a suggestion of how to expand your podcasts. For instance, this video's topic was about meeting people, so perhaps you can tell how you or other people met interesting people in your lives.
When I lived in Hokkaido, I walked up to salary men in bars and asked to sit with them. It ended up with us dancing on karaoke bar tables and then never hear from them again. Was great. 北海道に住んでた時、バーでサラリーマンに行って、【座っていいですか】と言った。そのあとに、カラオケでテーブルの上にダンスしたよ。４時間の友達だけｗ楽しかったよー
It would be awesome if you could add Japanese subtitles to your videos, unfortunatelly the subtitles you have I can't do anything with them. Having the video's transcript really makes everything easier. But if It's okay if you can't add them. Thank you very much!

I think many Japanese worry too much about possible mistakes in their pronunciation/grammar when they talk in another language. It is very unlikely that a native person will correct your mistakes like a teacher, during conversation (at least I would never do that). If information is conveyed in some way, there is no problem even if you stop when you don`t know words/grammar :)
is it true that when you date a japanese lady it is cute but when you marry her especially you have a child that cuteness will be gone and your japanese wife will become a boss of the house?.. then your salary every month you will fully gave it into your wife?..
Why do you have to put horn like head phone on your head. You are not confident about your new look or something. It looks awful rather than kawaii. Just put normal headphones band it would be better look. Trust me.
They are cat ears. Many people think they are cute. I think they are okay, but I can see you point that they might not look serious. They certainly don't look awful in my opinion, though.

It would indeed be fun to be able to chat with a Japanese person regularly.
Thank you☺️
The hesitancy you describe for Japanese English learners speaking English is also exactly how it is for me trying to speak Japanese 😅
😂😂😂😂😅😅😅😅😅
You've defeated the glare! Good job! 🙂I'll make a more serious comment later.

Hi 👋 great video,you shouldn't always have to speak English, we should learn Japanese also, but it's difficult on both sides.keep up the good work xx
Thank you☺️☺️☺️
ハロトークで仲のいい日本人の友達ができたので本当に皆様にオススメします！！
とても勉強になる動画をシェアしてくれてありがとうございます！！
なんか日本人の外国語で話すのが怖いという気持ちは分かりますね😅
間違えたら馬鹿にされるかなとか相手に話が通じなかったらとか緊張しすぎて言葉が出てこなかったらどうしようとか、やはりそう考えると不安になりますよね。
でも、机の上での勉強だけしてたら上達することができないと思ったから重い腰上げてハロトークをインストールして日本人に話しかけようと頑張ってきました！！
最初は失敗が多くて心が折れそうになることが何度もあったけど、諦めずに挑戦をし続けてやっと日本人の友達ができました！！
お陰で日本語を勉強してて良かったなと今は思えます！！
だから日本語を勉強してる皆さん、引き続き、日本語の勉強を頑張りましょう！！
あなたの経験をシェアしてくれてありがとうございます！！！！😊😊😊😊

@i.am.yurichan thanks gwapa..i hope..☺️
It would be awesome if you could add Japanese subtitles to your videos, unfortunatelly the subtitles you have I can't do anything with them.
Having the video's transcript really makes everything easier.
But if It's okay if you can't add them.
Thank you very much!
I appreciate your feedback! 🙏
本当に役に立った動画でした。おつかれさまでした。私は外国人から、一つ聞きたいことあります。日本人アプローチの両方はどんなヒントありますか。日本人の友達を作りたいのなら、見た目も、声も、あまり侵略的にしたくない。(日本語はすみませんね、まだＮ３だからね😣。）
ありがとうございます☺️
いい質問ですね！！！！
🙇🙇🙇
☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️
留学したことある日本語が話せる外国人として、外国人の友達が作りたい日本人は一割でもないと思います。出会った日本人の大半ただ自分の英語を磨くための存在と扱われました。日本は気遣いの文かがあると思ったが、僕が合ったほとんどの日本人は、なぜこの人がわざわざ日本に来てたのでしょうとこの人は友達が欲しいや日本語を上達したいなどを一度も思ってくれなくて、その一年間は幻滅して終わりました。長い間日本の文化が憧れてて日本語も10年間勉強したのに日本人は外国人の友達が欲しいと聞くと悔しく想います。
これは全日本人がだめなわけではないがただこの動画を偶然見つけちゃってこの気持ちを発散しなきゃと感じました。
うーん。。。その話はよく聞くよね🥺🥺🥺
あなたが嫌な思いをしてしまって、ごめんなさい
確かに、日本人は日本人かそうじゃないかって潜在的に線引きしている人もいるよね。。。
でも最近はインバウンドでたくさんの人が来てくれているおかげで少しずつ変わっていたらいいな
次あなたがくる時には嫌な気持ちを感じないといいな
Thank you for another great video.
