Your Japanese pronunciation is perfect ;) As a Japanese I want to add one. If you foreigners have any allergy of food, remember that we say it like "ARERUGEE". If you say "allergy", we never understand it. And you must look up the words of food you have allergy of in Japanese beforehand. Then at restaurants you shuould tell the staff first, "something (food's name in Japanese) ARERUGEE desu". That's the way you survive ;)
There needs to be more vids like this. Your opening about courtesy and respect and politeness is the whole reason I want to at least get some basics for travelling. I’m 50, male, Australian and will be travelling in Japan on my own in late September early October this year. I can’t dedicate 8 hrs a day to learn Japanese but I want to be polite and respectful while travelling and enjoy my holiday. There are a lot of Japanese learning videos available, and it very very easy to get overwhelmed, I would be lying if I said I didn’t get overwhelmed when I was searching. This is the very start of my journey so thank you for sharing this.
If you guys ask something to Japanese in English while traveling , please speak slowly We can understand English but we don’t get used to listen the native English speed
I've been living in Japan for almost a year and this is the most helpful video I've seen! I get so nervous and overwhelmed when people speak Japanese to me and this is a great way to begin learning phrases that are very basic and can be used every day. Thank you!
Hannah!!! We are just back from our 10 day trip to Tokyo, Kyoto, Gion and Osaka! I prepared for 8 months for this trip. I tried to teach my self Hiragana and Katakana (with limited success). Nothing prepared me for getting around Japan as much as your videos. Especially this one. THANK YOU SO MUCH! It seems like such a small thing perhaps to people who speak the language or have cultural familiarity. But this was our first time to Asia and the furthest I have ever been from America. I needed a simple, less daunting teaching method. Everything I needed to know was in your vlogs. The only phrases I needed to get around with was in this video and the follow up video you gave us. You were 100% correct. Everyone from adults to teenagers and children were so lovely and polite. They helped us when we were stuck, appreciated when we made an effort to speak Japanese and “a rousing game of charades” can make for a great bit of fun for both parties. I even picked up a few new phrases with the help of the locals. I cannot begin to tell you how much fun we had. It was more than a vacation; it was a journey and an adventure. My shins are still sore from all the climbing and walking. Lol. No pain no gain 🤗🤗🤗. Thank you again for such an enjoyable vlog. I look forward to seeing more of your adventures. You have inspired me to start my own. Doumo arigatou gozaimasu Hannah!
I’m learning Japanese because I’m planning to go to Japan in a couple years. Because I’m pretty young (12) I wanted to start learning languages now so I can travel around the world. These types of videos really inspire me to keep going because I realise everything is linked ^^ Arigato gozaimas 🙏
Izzy Fitzsimon don’t let others put you down or mock you. People will most likely laugh or try to make you feel ashamed for learning a language. (In my personal experience) Just ignore them. The younger you start the easier and quicker you will have stuff done. ganbatte kudasai !
My wife and I were in Japan for 2.5 weeks in October and your video was a great help to us and made all the difference. The key phrases you taught us were very relevant and effective. Many thanks!
YES! Ya gave me few more to add on my list. I should be good to start once I move to Japan. Reckon these other ones I learned would be very useful for visitors to know also... 1) itadakimasu (polite way saying “let’s eat” when accompanied by Japanese) 2) gochisoo samadesu (respectful way to say “thank you for the meal” at a restaurant or someone’s house before leaving) 3) sayonara or mata ne (formal/informal “goodbye or see ya later”)
Ignore the haters. We just spent a month in Japan and your videos were by far the best for English speakers. The videos by native Japanese speakers may be more technically correct but sound like lot of mumbling to English ears. Your videos allowed us to be perfectly understood. Which is all that really matters. Great job. Thank you.
Thank you for making this video ! We used it to learn all of the phrases and our trip went so much smoother that we imagined. The Japanese people REALLY appreciated that we had learned some Japanese ! Especially, “Thank you Vey Much” ! Here’s wishing you success in all your video posts ! You are a real sweetheart !
I’m so in love with Japan and its culture but I’m pretty young (15) and want to travel there with some adults but I live in a small rural town in Australia so I can’t find people who have already been there to travel with :( very helpful video though
Did u know I'm Bob ross take some extra time to save and learn more about the country. By the time you’re 17-18 you’ll be able to spend more time there experiencing Japan and enjoy meeting new people and experiencing things without anyone trying to chaperone you. 🙂
I’m Japanese. I think your Japanese is very beautiful!!! and, This video is very useful for a trip to Japan because almost all of communication for travel can do with using these introduced words!!! Please enjoy Japan!!!!
thats what i was thinking... like you can know alot of words and questions but when they do understand you and answer id be like mmmm could you please say it reaaaally slowly? xd
@@coopstripes Yes Greg, 'learnt'. I presume you are American. I speak English, which came before American English. Maybe do a Google first before commenting.
First time here. Just want to say the first 30 seconds are so aesthetically pleasing. I love your clean background, your cute fairy lights, and your makeup is impeccable. Ok, now on to the video. (blush)
@@olekristoffer3896 Hello! I recently just deleted that traveling phrases video because i noticed it was not that good compared with other native speakers lol !
Loved it! Nice and simple, I have 3 children from 4 to 14 travelling with us to Japan for a short trip. We just want to be polite and make an effort to speak Japanese so this is perfect!
I can't believe that yourcontents were posted about 5 years ago. No multilingual, fluent Japanese-speaking RUclipsr has presented daily Japanese conversation necessary for travelling to Japan in such an easy-to-understand way as you have. And your Japanese pronunciation is so beautifully spoken. It is easy for me, a Japanese person, to understand. Similarly, I thought your English was very easy to listen to, even though you speak fast and in a good tempo. I don't think I can say this in the video contents, but maybe Japanese people like to entertain foreigners. And I think it is accelerated when they are as beautiful as you are. You have been revisiting Japan recently, haven't you? We are very happy to have Japan fans like you.
Thanks for the Phrases - my wife and I are working on them in preparation for our trip to Japan this fall. We feel so much better knowing a few Japanese phrases.
Very helpful and very nice presentation. Your voice and approach were excellent. Made learning something new less nerve racking. The little lights in the background were a nice touch and your music touch made it very professional.Nicely Done.
I will never forget my personal experience, when i visit for the very first time all alone is OSAKA. The people are sooo nice. I think i can say, they are the most nicest people ive ever encounter when i travelling alone. ❤️
I watched one video that stated that homeless people are not harassed in Japan like they are in America for falling asleep in public parks. They just leave them be. Same for subways. Such common decency no matter what ones station is in life.
I want to visit Japan so badly! It's on my bucket list. This video was very helpful and the way you explained the phrases made it more comprehensive and easier to retain. Arigato gozaimas!
when I try to translate "onegaishimasu" into English, I always have difficulty😂 for Japanese, this phrase is so useful and flexible. I know how hard you explain it.
Yuroshiko onegaishimasu It means pleased to meet you. It was used at greeting people. You can also just say yuroshiko. It also used when u were introducing yourself like Hajimemashite watashi wa jianara desu yuroshiko onegaishimasu
You're so cute RUclipsr! I'm Japanese so I know everything which you say but I'm always enjoying your videos. These videos are really helpful for my English! Keep going!
@@itsmekrazyy not really people call other people cute all the time without it being flirting, it's just a compliment and some times meant to condescend
I did enjoy this video! U r too humble like Japanese sayin' "My pronounciation is not perfect" lol U literally nailed xd I'm workin' 4 a pretty luxury hotel in Osaka of Japan. If u speak even one phrase in Japanese, Almost all Japanese will be really really happy to hear n it'll definitely be a tip to start off communicatin' wiz each other:) Plz give it a try if u come to Japan.

I have been studying Japanese for 5 years. it was soooooo helpful just to re cap these words. You did an excellent job. looking forward to watching your other videos.
ゆっくり言ってください --- ikurite kudasai -- is also very useful. Japanese people speak fast and it is hard to understand. If you say ikurite kudasai, you are politely asking them to say (what they are saying) slowly.

I'm going to Japan next week for the first time and I didn't want to seem too ignorant when traveling about. This video has been really helpful. Thank you so much. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
こんいちわ~! You helped me out in a major way with this video! So I've been studying Japanese off and on for a few years, this year I started learning without procrastinating. The reason I'm learning is because I want to hold the career of a travelling photographer making my 2nd home in Japan
We're heading back for our second trip to Japan later this year, and I thought this time it would be good to know more than just a few words, so I googled. First video I clicked on and even before you spoke I knew you'd be an Aussie! So glad we found you, my family will be watching this vid many times this year! Thankyou, Todd and family from Perth.
One thing I found when travelling Japan, is if an item is foreign or "modern" (eg. western items, processed food, western brands etc) it'll be a loanword so it'll *pronounced* as a Japanised version of the (usually) english name. In Japanese the "syllables" in a word almost always consist of either: a consonant in front of a vowel (eg. ko, ni, wa), a vowel by itself, or "n" by itself. Almost all the english consonants are used along with all the english vowels: A, I, E, O U (pronounced ah, ee, eh, oh, ou). So for example cola becomes "ko-o-ra" and napkin becomes "na-pu-ki-n". You can also break down non-loanwords words down this way too to help remember them: eg. "a-ri-ga-to-o" or "su-mi-ma-se-n". _I didn't cover everything, there are exceptions to the rule and some kana combinations etc_
If a tourist can barely say Arigato, they won't be able to read katakana and she's not teaching the Japanese alphabet just a few words to get by when traveling.
I didn't say anything about reading, what I'm saying is you can usually guess what the katakana word of the item is by taking the english name and adding vowels where necessary so the syllables of the word are broken down into (english) consonants followed by vowels.
Thank you Hannah, you're the greatest. I'm learning Japanese so I could speak with my grandchildren since they are little and don't speak English. Grandma from America
Thanks so much for your easy to follow guides… just returned home from a fantastic 3 weeks travelling and seeing our son who works in Tokyo. As you say, the people are all so gracious and helpful, but those few magic phrases do smooth the way very well !👍 We shall return, as there is so much more to see in this amazing land !😃🇯🇵❤️
Hannah, I had to go back to this video to thank you. In March of this year, I was doing so much research for my first trip to Japan in April. It was AMAZING, and this video specifically helped me connect even just an extra bit with locals while making my way. Thank you for this video, thank you for being you. 😘😘
I know this was a long time ago that you posted this BUT!!!!!! I just got notice I'm going to Japan June 11th to the 24th for training and I'm kind of nervous. I've never been there and I don't speak Japanese at all so I'm trying to crunch some sayings this is great for me!!! Anyway you can meet me at the airport and get me to my hotel. That's what I'm more worried about that anything. Other wise I'll be with the people training me so it shouldn't be too bad. I know you probably won't see this but it was worth a shot 😂😂😂😂
hey lol how could u remember like such a perfect pronounciation i haven't seen lol Even my girlfriend does not pronounce it so much. i've been dated with her 4 years lol
When I went to Japan, instead of saying credit card, i just said "VEE-SA?" for visa haha it worked! I loved saying sumimasen! It even works in Japanese restaurants in Canada lol
Hope you keep sharing Hannah. You can get by on surprisingly little, in Japan and at first you just want to not stick out just because you can't express these little things, which in Japan go a very Long way. So thanks (as they also help you to begin listening/hearing), cause now I'm learning too.
Hi. Flying out on Sunday. Thank you soooo much for your useful phrases. I'm only there for 2 weeks so don't need a 100 words which frankly I don't think I really need. Your 20 phrases are exactly what I'm looking for. So, again thanks so much much for your hard work, and please ignore the haters only love from the rest of us. ❤
Many thanks for sharing very basic but important phrases, especially for beginners traveling to Japan. You're quite well. Everyone is the same in any foreign country at first....
This video, and the rest of Hannah's Japan videos, were SO helpful in getting us ready for our first visit to the country. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thanks!
I’m just starting to learn Japanese and I always thought “where is...” had to have “wa” in front of it. Like: -where is the train station? -eki wa doko desuka I don’t know how any grammar works and I’m so confused.

Your Japanese pronunciation is perfect ;)
As a Japanese I want to add one. If you foreigners have any allergy of food, remember that we say it like "ARERUGEE". If you say "allergy", we never understand it. And you must look up the words of food you have allergy of in Japanese beforehand. Then at restaurants you shuould tell the staff first, "something (food's name in Japanese) ARERUGEE desu". That's the way you survive ;)
That’s super helpful! Thanks for that!
My pleasure. I edited and shortened it ;)
That's really useful! Similarly in S. Korea I know they say Al-lu-gee which is very useful to know in both languages!
中あたる ah naruhodo.. arigatou

We can understand English but we don’t get used to listen the native English speed
Listening to Japanese and Spanish speakers its too fast for me to decipher much alot of the time
I love you. Thanks!
Thanks for your suggestion. Next time when i visit Japan i will follow yr instructions.
Arigato gozaimas for the info! 👍
I think most of the asians can understand English but, foreigners need to slow it down.

Just say (I think this is how you write it in English) : Wakarimasen (I don’t understand) or Eigo ga hanasemasu ka? (Do you speak English?)
lol so true
I get that response all the time😅. I spoke to my japanese teacher for practice and my face and mind went into another world🤣

ゆっくり言ってください --- ikurite kudasai -- is also very useful. Japanese people speak fast and it is hard to understand. If you say ikurite kudasai, you are politely asking them to say (what they are saying) slowly.
Actually, the phrase “ゆっくり言ってください” is pronounced yukkuri itte kudasai.
yukkuri means slowly, itte means speak, and kudasai means please.
The words should be left onscreen the whole time instead of flashing it for a sec and it’s gone while you are still talking about it
Or added in the description!

Thank you--this is really helpful!
Yes!
This will save my life for sure, definitely going to use this when i go! Thank youuuuu!
Thank you so much for this video. My husband and I are currently in Japan, and the phrases you taught us have been incredibly helpful
I used this phrase a lot when I visited Japan last April. Kurejito Kado? Arigato Gozaimashita!
I'm going to Japan next week for the first time and I didn't want to seem too ignorant when traveling about. This video has been really helpful. Thank you so much. I appreciate you sharing your knowledge.
Really helpful We are off to Japan in April 19 Thanks for the tips
こんいちわ~! You helped me out in a major way with this video! So I've been studying Japanese off and on for a few years, this year I started learning without procrastinating. The reason I'm learning is because I want to hold the career of a travelling photographer making my 2nd home in Japan
だいじょぶ,だいじよぶ(Daijyobu)! This word is overused in Japan. The same as "no worries" in Aussie language...😁
Coming back to this video after years, still a very good and useful refreshing short course
Thank you I’m travelling to Japan in May.
We're heading back for our second trip to Japan later this year, and I thought this time it would be good to know more than just a few words, so I googled. First video I clicked on and even before you spoke I knew you'd be an Aussie! So glad we found you, my family will be watching this vid many times this year! Thankyou, Todd and family from Perth.
I can't wait to go to Japan! I Love ❤️ ❤️❤️❤️JAPAN!!!! Love from Malaysia!😀😍👍
One thing I found when travelling Japan, is if an item is foreign or "modern" (eg. western items, processed food, western brands etc) it'll be a loanword so it'll *pronounced* as a Japanised version of the (usually) english name.
In Japanese the "syllables" in a word almost always consist of either: a consonant in front of a vowel (eg. ko, ni, wa), a vowel by itself, or "n" by itself.
Almost all the english consonants are used along with all the english vowels: A, I, E, O U (pronounced ah, ee, eh, oh, ou).
So for example cola becomes "ko-o-ra" and napkin becomes "na-pu-ki-n".
You can also break down non-loanwords words down this way too to help remember them: eg. "a-ri-ga-to-o" or "su-mi-ma-se-n".
_I didn't cover everything, there are exceptions to the rule and some kana combinations etc_
If a tourist can barely say Arigato, they won't be able to read katakana and she's not teaching the Japanese alphabet just a few words to get by when traveling.
I didn't say anything about reading, what I'm saying is you can usually guess what the katakana word of the item is by taking the english name and adding vowels where necessary so the syllables of the word are broken down into (english) consonants followed by vowels.
1:15 How about "domo"?
3:10 I did know "i-e", but I did not know that it was considered "a little harsh." I also didn't know "daijoubu."
Domo is also right.
Daijoubu means i am ok or no thank you.
ちゃんと伝わってるんかな。。
best teacher in the world i understood each n every concept n mechanisms of japanese
Your expressions are hilarious Hannah! really enjoy your videos, thumbs up.
I love your teaching style! I can understand the Japanese words you speak so much easier than my friend friend that IS Japanese.
"Card-ok desuka?"
Works in Okinawa .... Don't remember needing it in the mainland that often.
I’m traveling to Japan for 10 days this month, and so far this was the number one most helpful video I have found! Thank you so much for making this!
Great video! And you sound very natural when you speak Japanese :)
Welcome to Japan ! 日本へ ようこそ
Thanks for such an awesome video ! We are going to Japan in 12 days so it's great to have a few phrases so I dont feel rude 😊💖
Thank you Hannah, you're the greatest. I'm learning Japanese so I could speak with my grandchildren since they are little and don't speak English. Grandma from America
Love this ☺️💕 thank you for making this video. I’m going to visit Japan in spring 2019.
welcome to japan🇯🇵🗾
Diana Of Markham let me know how much you spend please I been trying to figure out how much to save
Great video. Going to Japan in 10 days been there before but never tried to learn Japanese… on to the next video!
大丈夫はマジでいろんなとこで使うなー
I usually use daijo-bu.
Thanks so much for your easy to follow guides… just returned home from a fantastic 3 weeks travelling and seeing our son who works in Tokyo. As you say, the people are all so gracious and helpful, but those few magic phrases do smooth the way very well !👍
We shall return, as there is so much more to see in this amazing land !😃🇯🇵❤️
これ、日本語の勉強のやつだけど
普通に英語の勉強になるねw
きゆ めっちゃ思った笑笑
それなw
確かにw
この人の英語聞きやすくてありがたいww
ほんとにそれ
Very helpful video. I am flying to Japan on Monday and trying to brush up on useful travel phrases. Thanks!
ハンナちゃん、日本語の発音きれい♡
可愛いから、聞き入っちゃうなぁ♡
これからもVlog頑張ってね👍🏻
Love yah! ;)
Hannah, I had to go back to this video to thank you. In March of this year, I was doing so much research for my first trip to Japan in April. It was AMAZING, and this video specifically helped me connect even just an extra bit with locals while making my way. Thank you for this video, thank you for being you. 😘😘
Excellent video.
A VERY important phrase to know also: Where is the toilet? --> Toire wa doko deska?
I know this was a long time ago that you posted this BUT!!!!!! I just got notice I'm going to Japan June 11th to the 24th for training and I'm kind of nervous. I've never been there and I don't speak Japanese at all so I'm trying to crunch some sayings this is great for me!!! Anyway you can meet me at the airport and get me to my hotel. That's what I'm more worried about that anything. Other wise I'll be with the people training me so it shouldn't be too bad. I know you probably won't see this but it was worth a shot 😂😂😂😂
hey lol how could u remember like such a perfect pronounciation i haven't seen lol Even my girlfriend does not pronounce it so much. i've been dated with her 4 years lol
When I went to Japan, instead of saying credit card, i just said "VEE-SA?" for visa haha it worked!
I loved saying sumimasen! It even works in Japanese restaurants in Canada lol
日本語めっちゃ流暢ですね
達也 山口 How was the JK?
Couldn’t be better！
What did you say
たつや what does this mean?
Angelena Phair
It is female high school students.
Hope you keep sharing Hannah. You can get by on surprisingly little, in Japan and at first you just want to not stick out just because you can't express these little things, which in Japan go a very Long way. So thanks (as they also help you to begin listening/hearing), cause now I'm learning too.
But when I say any of these phrases, the ppl in Japan think I know Japanese so they start speaking and then im lost😂😂
Virtual Suplex IT WASNT A REAL LIFE EXPERIENCE BUT A FACT U MORON
Virtual Suplex ok yes but this has probably happened to a lot of other people.
Hi. Flying out on Sunday. Thank you soooo much for your useful phrases. I'm only there for 2 weeks so don't need a 100 words which frankly I don't think I really need. Your 20 phrases are exactly what I'm looking for. So, again thanks so much much for your hard work, and please ignore the haters only love from the rest of us. ❤
Keep making these awesome videos Hannah :)
Super valuable! I have a certificate in Japanese language but hearing the laymans way of using it helps make it click 👍🏻
I love your videos! Keep up the great work :)
Many thanks for sharing very basic but important phrases, especially for beginners traveling to Japan. You're quite well. Everyone is the same in any foreign country at first....
何と言ってるか9割5分解らんけど、とりあえず日本のこと褒めてくれてるんだろうなぁ～というのが伝わった。(違ってたらちょっとハズい)
Thank you @Currently Hannah. Arigatou gozai masu.
What's the name of the song? :)
Visiting Japan for the first time in a few weeks and speak NO Japanese so this video is so helpful- thank you 😊
I love your videos. Keep it up. *thumbs up emoji*
Can you make more videos like these, please? I’ve been watching everyday, Im ready to go to next level 😅 Im going to Japan this October 🎉
I love her videos, they’re soo clear!
Omg,I watched 5 mins before going to Japan 🤣
how's Japan?
@@toty346 It's so fun but I kinda forgot the words:-P
I’m here learning now and I’m going tomorrow lol
This video, and the rest of Hannah's Japan videos, were SO helpful in getting us ready for our first visit to the country. I can't recommend them highly enough. Thanks!
We can start by watching anime! :P haha thats where i learn some basic phrases! I need japanese friends to practice :D
Hahaha well unfortunately, everyday Japanese people rarely talk like anime characters. It’s a fun starting point though!
CurrentlyHannah haha so true - sometime i think the anime actors are just unbelievably good that they can do a certain pitch hehe
You can use the app iTalki to practice with people
@@CurrentlyHannah I feel like half the people in the world learned the word "What" from Anime alone.
Very informative and thanks for slowing down the pronunciations. Made it easy to understand as well on the on screen text.
I’m just starting to learn Japanese and I always thought “where is...” had to have “wa” in front of it. Like:
-where is the train station?
-eki wa doko desuka
I don’t know how any grammar works and I’m so confused.
Yes indeed. "Wa" establishes the topic of the sentence. "Eki wa doko desu ka." is correct.
Thank you very much for this. I'm visiting in March. I can't wait!
idk why but im saying all this in a deep anime voice...
damn i hate myself
日本人です！私はこの動画を英語の勉強のために使っています！助かります😻
Let's be real, everyone's here so they can watch anime without subtitles💯🤣
Lol really 😂coz anime is love
I'm here to study their culture from them
@@magnet4214 same
Yeah
😂😂
