One of my German teachers said that it's well known among language teachers that a little alcohol does in fact make it easier to speak a foreign language you're not fully comfortable with. (She also told us that even so, we should *not* show up tipsy to our oral exams.)
Or you could just show up overtired. Sleeping disorders lead to frontal lobe disinhibition which is the exact same thing that Alcohol does to your brain.
I am listening and writing in english for years... And my speaking is not that bad, but when I have to do it in front of people, stress make me unable to say anything. So I can understand alcohol being helpful. You overthink less, you are more relax etc.
Alcohol often makes you think less and talk more which can be useful if nervous. Now that I think about it, most of the times I had long conversation in english there was some alcohol involved
I think quite a few of them under estimate how good their English actually is. Sure the grammar might not always be their, but the near clear pronunciation and the ease of being able to understand what they are trying to get across cannot be denied. Mad respect to Polka and the other JP girls for the hard work.
Basic spoken Japanese is actually surprisingly easy once you grasp the logic of it and learn some words. The difficulty of the language is definitely elsewhere. For JP members though, English is hard as hell because of near 0% immersion they get naturally, so their ears literally cannot distinguish the sounds, and their tongues can't twist properly. Not helped by Japanese having butchered versions of half he English vocabulary, so it's very hard for Japanese people to accept that their version of the word is often not even close to how it sounds in English. But Kronii has definitely improved. With the help of the power beer, she's nailing these conversations.
What is Beer? It’s what you’re drinking. These are the small, natural comebacks I live for, something I could never accomplish and would roll in my bed in regret for not having thought of them. Polka is a treasure.
For real! Polka had Kronii so mentally cornered, I swear she was Light Yagami in a past life. Totally nice blown when she challenged Kronii to smack her drink against her head, and rationalized that people don't generally make such loud drinking noises when just drinking water. Multiple back to back galaxy brain moments.
It pretty much does, grunts of affirmation are a very common thing when speaking Japanese. It's considered polite to nod and make noises of affirmation to indicate you're listening when someone is speaking. It can throw you off the first time it happens in Japan, since they'll do it almost anytime there's a pause in your speaking and it will distract you if you're not expecting it. On the flip side, once you get used to it and speak to English speakers you might find yourself doing it without thinking and driving them nuts XD
very cute polka and kronii. kronii drinking beer for this reason is amazing, quite amazing already that kronii's drinking beer during a collab, didn't expect that at all.
Polka could be a clown and a tease, but she's also smart and cunning, as expected from a fox. To uncover Kronii's little lie like that... Never underestimate the "one girl circus".
I mean it makes sense, if she were completely sane she'd be an awkward shy mess. Being a little tipsy makes her feel at ease especially with the JP girls.
@@shinigamimiroku3723 I'm gonna go on a tangent, compared to Kronii I just drink to stfu because I get a lot quieter when I drink. It weirdly makes me play games better with friends lmao.
I don't think it was much about her being shy/awkward, but that when you try to speak a foreign language, you usually overthink whatever you are trying to say, and having a bit of alcohol in your system helps with that.
Well, I guess there's sparkling water that does come in a can. Of note is the "Liquid Death" brand which intentionally looks like a beer can, but is just water because it's funny. Also wow Kronii's voice is way higher pitched in Japanese than in English
Canned water and bagged milk. Canada is truly the land of wondrous liquid storage devices. Granted, canned water would be more environmentally responsible if actually recycled than plastic in any use.
Polka does the most cheerful and adorable bullying, hahaha. Her way of saying "wadder!" was surprisingly natural too, that caught me off guard Booze definitely does help when you're speaking a new/unfamiliar language too, yep
Polka here was genuinely fascinated by Kronii's bare existence LOL They seem to be almost on the same mental wave, the attitude, humor, making more bros noises than actually dialogues =)))))
As a bilingual, that actually absolutely helps when you know enough of a language to communicate but aren't fluent. In fact I once got so drunk I spent a whole night communicating with people who didnt share any language with me. Unfortunately I don't remember the details, being drunk and all.
1:58 Yo is Osekkai using double equals signs?! Now write a "Hello, world!" program In assembly (you can use any instruction set, dunno why people never specify this when asking someone to write something in assembly, assembly isn't a single language)
“If i dont drink beer i wont be able to speak jp” is oddly relatable. Ive noticed i become significantly better at speaking and comprehending spanish when i drink. My best guess is that we lose some sort of subconscious mental barrier when we drink. I guess the immense confidence boost also helps lmao
i get the feeling even though I've never drank beer before, i discovered this trick 2 years ago. The night before my English oral exam I was rushing my homework and ended up getting 4 hours of sleep, the next day i could speak fluent English (most of the time i get nervous even though i can manage at least on a conversational level in writing)
i can confirm from experience, that alcohol does help. It's not always the solution tho. It can make some conversations uncomfortable, so I don't really recommend it. Especially if you're a heavy drinker. Chatting is a more healthy approach to start using your language skills. It's often anonymous, you have more time to think before you say anything... and others feel more relaxed too drink responsibly! (coming from a guy who just drank an entire bottle of vodka 4 days ago xdddd)

A bit tipsy to don't overthink what you want to say.
Alcohol often makes you think less and talk more which can be useful if nervous. Now that I think about it, most of the times I had long conversation in english there was some alcohol involved
Polka interacting with the EN girls despite language barrier is one of my favourite things, I love you funny fennec

0:57 I love how you made her hit the bottle on her head, that was really funny
I wonder if she actually hit her head with it since you can see her head slightly shake in sync with the sounds lmao.
in my mind she's actually hitting her head with the bottle, that's why her eyes are closing lol
bonking herself with a half full water bottle is absolutely something Polka would do, so
It's polka, she probably hit her head for real
@@Lunk42 It's probably she hit it with her hands in front of the mic so it blocks her eyes from the camera abit. But in the ideal reality, yes.
Kronii JP is like Haachama EN. It's actually pretty good and absolutely adorable.

@@Archangel591 Yeah, the katakanization of english words does more actual harm than good for any japanese person seriously trying to learn english.
Reminds me of that time Polka tried Duolingo and came across "mask" and "musk" and didn't hear any difference.
Polka is used to having an alcoholic near her so she's totally fine with this.
Wamy
@@kylewood4488-b9r Wamy!? No, noooo Wamy.
Wamy Water is very effective.
@@shinyhappyrem8728 Me drinking Wamy Water by the Liter
A blue-haired alcoholic, at that. I'd imagine she got a big sense of deja-vu during this moment, lol.
Polka likes to tease Kronii a lot. Lol
Lmao Polka likes to tease everyone...
@@killab6859 eh true.
gura called it when they debuted, kronii is just bullyable
Kronii is very cute when she's flustered.
"You won't make that sound if you drink water; uuuuuuuuuuugh"
God I love Polka 🤣
wait a minute, if that is true then Miko should definitely drink more beer
The world could not handle drunk Miko
Aki or maybe Lamy would be more plausible but Drunk Elite will cause a mass casualties especially to 35Ps.
I see what you did there.😏
OI
What if she has been already drinking and what we’ve witnessed is the result of that
What is Beer?
It’s what you’re drinking.
These are the small, natural comebacks I live for, something I could never accomplish and would roll in my bed in regret for not having thought of them.
Polka is a treasure.
Not with that attitude.

Totally nice blown when she challenged Kronii to smack her drink against her head, and rationalized that people don't generally make such loud drinking noises when just drinking water.

I don't think Kronii understood that comeback, lol... I think she thought Polka was asking "what are you drinking"
Polka is a true legend
I don't speak japanese, but I like that Kronii's "Mm mm mm!" at the end there translated to "That's right!"

@@kenjutsukata1o1 That's very interesting, I had no idea! I was thinking it was a joke / filler for the translation.
Ina's famed "humu humu" is a very similar habit too.
The chemistry between these two is through the roof!! 😍

She latched onto that beer sound like Sherlock Holmes and never let it drop
I mean it makes sense, if she were completely sane she'd be an awkward shy mess. Being a little tipsy makes her feel at ease especially with the JP girls.
NGL I actually feel bad for her - primarily because I know how she feels. Never drank to get around it, but we all have our own strategies...

Also wow Kronii's voice is way higher pitched in Japanese than in English
Yea it seems that people in general speak higher in Japanese and lower in English. Something about the language's tone
I swear Liquid Death does taste better than bottle water
I think this is the most Japanese I've ever heard Kronii speak aside from that one clip with her talking to Polka and Subaru.
0:36 That's some delicious water you got there, Kronii.
Polka being really patronising has to be one of my most favourite things about. Thank you for another great clip, Ose-sensei!
Kronii lied as naturally as she breathed lmao I'm surprised that she drinks beer
Hehe I would hardly call that natural ^^ rather clunky
She doesn't. She only drinks Palm Bay.
Friendship ended with Steamed Hams
Now Canned Water is my best friend
Canned water and bagged milk. Canada is truly the land of wondrous liquid storage devices. Granted, canned water would be more environmentally responsible if actually recycled than plastic in any use.
I haven't seen normal water in a can, but at least in the US sparkling water can come canned.
Polka does the most cheerful and adorable bullying, hahaha. Her way of saying "wadder!" was surprisingly natural too, that caught me off guard
Booze definitely does help when you're speaking a new/unfamiliar language too, yep
Kronii trying to stay calm during the jp collab was kinda smart but it would show it’s heads
0:55 Polka trying to prove that she has water by bonking the bottle is cute and hilarious! 🤣🤣
Kronii and Polka, Bae and Haachama, what a time to be alive
I love their chemistry.
1:22 best laugh of 2022
It's just a can of sparkling fizzy water, trust me bro
The edits done on this are 10/10. Absolutely makes what would be a good clip into a great one.
Holy hell, Polka and Kroni is a really amazing combo
kronii and polka are such a good pair
Polka here was genuinely fascinated by Kronii's bare existence LOL They seem to be almost on the same mental wave, the attitude, humor, making more bros noises than actually dialogues =)))))
0:53 that "Hontou" of Kronii was soo good to hear
Always love when Polka and Kronii do more collaboration, hahaha
Why is this randomly matched collab so perfect?! lol I love their dynamics so much! Ever since the Kromii san moments! XD
I know she's nervous but she should also be proud, she did great in this stream.
Kronii's japanese improvedalot
Didn’t realize Kronii’s Japanese had gotten so good.
“I’m not an alcoholic, I just really really really like to speak Japanese”!
that "beer wa nani?" is so clean
Love how polka did not let up LOL she what it was. Poor kronii tho hope the dork doesn't rely on the drink to speak JP.
Kronii's Emotional Support when talking in JP: Beer
As a bilingual, that actually absolutely helps when you know enough of a language to communicate but aren't fluent.
In fact I once got so drunk I spent a whole night communicating with people who didnt share any language with me. Unfortunately I don't remember the details, being drunk and all.
Reminder that soda also exists, also other things in cans that make psssh sounds when you open them and aren't drugs. Like tennis balls.
Yes, but Kronii kept insisting it was water, not soda.
I can't believe Omaru Polka can perfectly pronounce "wa'er".
This was a truly blessed collab
And many clips later
I just realised Polka's en is way better than I thought
So if we drink beer, we're gonna nihongo perapera desunee 👌👌
NGL I thought Polka was the one drinking beer at first XD but when Beeronii showed signs of tipsiness it all makes sense LMAO
1:58
Yo is Osekkai using double equals signs?! Now write a "Hello, world!" program

i fucking love polka
more please
it's not even the sound of the can that betrays her, but her satisfied sighs after every gulp 😂
Ive heard of the drunken fist but drunken mouth is a new one
Kronii "I'm drinking water!"
Polka ... doubt.
you can tell that the translator is a programmer bc they translated "equals" as "==" instead of a single "="
kronii: NO ITS WATER
polka: its fine its fine im used to ppl drinking
lamy somewhere else: *sneeze*
Nothing wrong with a little liquid courage in moderation.
At least it's beer and not another smoothie...
“If i dont drink beer i wont be able to speak jp” is oddly relatable. Ive noticed i become significantly better at speaking and comprehending spanish when i drink.

Chill guys she's drinking water...
Flammable water that is...
Polka is impressed.
Meanwhile, Calli: "Yeah I'm just gonna chug this bottle of Jack D if you don't mind"
Polka and Kronii are sweet together
Man I wish I had the power to speak any language when drunk
Kronii's Japanese really improved ever since that trip with polka around the minecraft server
No wonder kronii is getting a little chonkyronii shes been drinking cold beverages
Oh snap, maybe I should try beer to improve my japanese.
1:58 checks out, quite frankly
1:25 No! No! No! No! No!... Well yes!
I mean, you almost HAVE to drink beer while bowling.
1:58 double equal sign, osekkai is progammer
The funny thing is that I knew jack shit about japanese, but I could understand whatever Kronii was saying. Absolutely loved the stream!
Kronii: "I'm drinking water!"
Jesus out of nowhere: "SIKE"
Kronii is just drinking normal flammable water
Kromedii, sponsored by HETAP!
We've all seen drunken boxing before, sure. But Drunken Nihongo. Thats amazing talent Kroni lmao.
1:15 "No"
It is possible to frink water from a can, Liquid Death is a thing.
Can confirm Beer does have that international language enhancing capacity.
Silly Polka, that's not beer, that's subway shake.
Kronii did drink water ... "flamable" water
i can confirm from experience, that alcohol does help. It's not always the solution tho. It can make some conversations uncomfortable, so I don't really recommend it. Especially if you're a heavy drinker.

drink responsibly! (coming from a guy who just drank an entire bottle of vodka 4 days ago xdddd)
Gura: Kronii another follow beer drinker yes.
I mean Canadaronii could totally get away with sayin it's canned water.
As in JP they would now say, Kronii the Drunken Master
yagoo, get the breathalizer
So if I get drunk, I can speak Japanese?
No, Neo. I'm saying that when you're drunk, you won't have to.
When I drunk I Speak Babylonian and have conversation with Bull of Heaven..or so I thought
It's a water from a canal. cheers.
Joke's on you! It's a White Claw!
Kronii - Drunken Master
1:35 I hear wamy water instead
I love Polka won't let it go haha
Ah yes a water that is flammable like oolong tea
agua = cerveza, cerveza = agua?? que ni que fuera de chile la kronii 😂
-Son!? Are you drunk!?
-C`mon maa! I need it to practice japanese, maji de!
Polmao just gaslighting the hell out of Kronii...
1:44 cute af
ngl polka english is decent as well. she able to form the main idea of the sentences. which is good enough
Why do I feel like Polka has shochu or chuhai in a plastic bottle? But man Kronii got ALL the habits.
