oh THATS why i could actually follow a bit of his spoken japanese! Damn, it was actually very fun to use my japanese to listen and understand so much. Still got a long way to go, but hey, im studying every day, and im not planning on stopping ;)
Thank you for this! As someone who can't even pass the JLPT N5 exam yet, it's comforting to know that even a native speaker has trouble with the JLPT N1. Ironically, this gives me the encouragement to try harder to learn Japanese.
@@purplleyx i dont actually recommend taking N5, it may sound arrogant but N5 and N4 exams are a waste of money, going through 1-2 textbooks/workbooks of minna no nihongo should guarantee a N4 pass. Id say self-study and take the N3 test directly (after trying some mock papers)
True, but what always hurts me the most are the big red question marks- it wasn't only bad, they didn't even UNDERSTAND the shit u were writing like ouch (not only in Germany tho I guess)
not from germany but i get question marks sometimes and honestly i get it... i don't know what im writing half the time anyways. i just write and hope for the best lmao
I saw his videos! So far since I don’t have as many subscribers as he has, I think maybe it’s hard to ask him to collaborate but I think I can react to fun’s Japanese from native Japanese speaker! Thanks for your good advice
I'm doing a language exchange with a foreigner who stays in Japan for a long time and passed N1. I realized he speaks quite fast and complicated when I listen to your content. Thanks for slowing down and pausing a lot for learners!
As for language exams - they are all like that in all languages - they are in higher register, use uncommon words, often from science and politics. Japanese exam doesn't have speaking part, which almost every other language exam has, so there's that. :)
Bruhhh...I can't believe that I understood your intro without reading subs😭 been studying Japanese since the beginning of quarantine...I've come so far

You must be joking right bcoz N5-N4 isn't that hard. Just learn it and go... Listening well that can be done also just by listening podcast or those JLPT level listening test. That also within 3-5 months of practice.
We also have a phrase close to うっかりミス in English, called 'careless mistake'. JLPT tests are extremely energy-consuming, so careless mistakes are really common. There is supposedly a half-hour break between 文字語彙 and 読解, so I think you did well for someone who powered through both sections (and JLPT N1 nonetheless!!!) without stopping.
I have a friend who scored 100% in N1. I didn't know it was this hard so i wasn't very impressed when he told me so. Now i am blown away ... I am taking the next JLPT on N3 level (if it doesn't get cancelled due to the Corona Virus of course). Wish me luck :3
My boyfriend did the N1 after studying Japanese for six months XD I was so surprised when he told me but he just said that it is actually easy?! However I don´t believe him lol
@@nodramapls4366 Did your boyfriend use magic when he was studying japanese? I want learn too T.T .... I study japanese more then 14 year and have N2 ..... but N1 is impossible.....cryyy
When I was in Japan, I got a math test back and everything was circled 😲😲 I thought I failed, but it turns out I got perfect 😂😂 Math is nice because it's the same wherever you go~
In Austria you probably would have gotten 0 Points in maths, even if your German is at a convrsational level, because in exams the questions are always given in a scenario of sorts and if you don't understand what they want you to do you have no chance... For example, one of the problems from my finals this year was something like: The Eiffel Tower is made up of a volume x made of steel, which has a mass of y, how high would it be if you melted it down into a square of 225 x 225 meters? So no chance, math got corrupted by language xdd
🤣Uh that's the reason why I got confuse every time Nobita gets back his answer sheet with circles. But actually circles are corrected right? I mean right answers. Thank you
I once failed a german language exam... ...as a native speaker. That's also one reason why I'm also kinda suspicious about tests in general. Another reason is that i'm just bad at exams in general but not necessary at the contents! :P
Ich hab auch mal so ein Test für Deutsch genommen und die sind auch schlecht strukturiert. Sagt einem gar nicht wie gut einer wirklich auf der Strasse oder im Büro kommunizieren würde.
I think native speakers just aren't made to learn the grammar part of the language, that is probably why. We just grow up knowing that language. Nobody speaks like what is written in the tests anyway. As a native English speaker, I don't think I'm able to score on an English test. I'm learning German now and sometimes when I ask my husband why is this such and such, he would stare a full 5 minutes at the sentence and tell me: You're making me doubt my own language.
@@jackfordon5532 hört sich gar nicht komisch an. In vielen Sprachen sagt man „Test nehmen“ anstatt Test schreiben. Ich bin an beides gewöhnt. Das Word „nehmen“ kann vieles bedeuten
i studied japanese from 7th grade to my 1st year of uni and decided to take N2, but even though my overall score was a pass my reading comprehension section was too low so i didn't actually pass. after that i got very discouraged and stopped studying. i thought i forgot everything but i'm surprised that i can still understand almost everything you said without using subtitles. your speech is very clear and i appreciate that you slow it down a little, it's the perfect pace for a learner!
I've been studying for a month and am hoping to pass the N5 next year, even though I couldn't understand full sentences I was able to understand a lot of words you said which I have been studying! You speak very clearly and are easy to understand so I subscribed and am looking forward to more content!
Thank you for making this video! It was very informative and I really enjoyed watching you write the exam :) I took the N1 exam in 2018 and got full score on it. Speaking from personal experience, I found that out of the three parts of the exam, listening was most challenging as we are only allowed to listen to the audio twice, and some of the dialogues get pretty long. Language knowledge and reading comprehension were both manageable and easier to prep for imo. Doing past papers that are available for download on the JLPT official website and reading their official exam preparation book definitely helped, as they recycle quite a few of their questions from previous exams.
wow, only being able to listen to the audio twice sounds like a nightmare to me... I have trouble remembering things like this and would have to replay the audio multiple times just to be able to answer the questions even if it were in my native language 😅
When I was on exchange in Japan, I passed their kanji-less Japanese level test almost perfectly. I personally had the N4, and 'learned' Japanese through anime and reality tv. I spoke with Japanese people in Japanese in my home country as well. It was definitely not the best but I somehow have this feeling for knowing the right grammar from listening so much, even though I haven't learned the grammar correctly. Problem was, thanks to that test I got put in the advanced Japanese class with many Chinese students who passed the N1. My speaking level was better than many of them, but I couldn't read a thing when they already passed N1. I always thought it was such a strange thing, that we differed in such opposites. Passing the N1 is something I'll probably never do.
Have you tried to look for international programs? I think lately TU has been starting more programs that can be studied fully in English, and sometimes you just have to attend some Japanese language classes here. In any case, hope you can succeed :) 頑張ってね！
i dont understand why they need n1. n2 is enough. If i had it my way, i would allow people for even N4 to come and visit and dwell into the culture and study learn grow 😁😘😉
Really, as the person above wrote, N2 is enough with either a class for engineering vocabulary, or a separate test for that. Just because someone will pass N1, doesn't mean they will know specialised vocabulary in every field. It makes no sense.
@@emanuelheard3236 Hey sorry for the late response (youtube is horrible at notifying me) but i do civil engineering, and as i live on the flattest country on earth, id like to have more experience with engineering in areas more prone to natural disasters, as japan is situated on the boundary multiple tectonic plates, but also because I think it's a beautiful country.
Watching your video with the subtitles on was amazing. I am trying to get more familiar and comfortable with my reading, so the mix between hearing you speak so distinctively and reading what you are saying while checking the translation... It's truly amazing. Thank you for your work!
Hard to think it's been almost 10 years since I took the JLPT N1 test. I passed then, but now, even after going to University and working in Japan, I'm not confident I'd be able to pass it again.
Wow! I'm kind of scared now! Right now I think I can pass N3, so I want to aim for N2 or N1 next year, but definitely seems like N1 will be too difficult 😭 I'm most confident in my conversational Japanese, and I love that I can watch your videos without subtitles and understand 99%... but this is making me really nervous to take N1! I'm planning to apply for grad school in Japan, but because I want to do an English program, maybe N2 is enough for now 😓 しかし頑張ります！
I think because we Japanese have never studied Japanese grammars and I answered those questions only with my institutions so if you study it constantly, it’s not impossible to pass the test! No worries!
This video was so interesting to watch as someone who wants to take the N1 in the future. I'm aiming to take the N2 test soon. It's comforting to know that even a native speaker can have trouble with the N1 test and ironically makes me want to work harder at my Japanese! Thank you for the video :)

I passed the N1 by accident in 2016. I planned to learn all the material for the winter test, but tried it out in the summer without having learned everything and passed. It was a bare pass. I managed to get most of my points in the listening and vocab sections, but the reading score was dangerously low.
Looking at this made me tried the test even though I only learned Japanese through animes, mangas and shows. I tried the 2012 N5 test which I have gotten a 77/89, which is not too bad, considering I didn't learn it properly so I'm happy with the result! :)
Yes, for Japanese that is a little more important. Even though I only know a handful of words and a few phrases, I have noticed that girls talk a little different from the boys.
It's so weird how I have been thinking nowadays to try for JLPT N5 while studying on my own and suddenly seeing videos like these on my recommendations hahah Thank you for showing us this, I am even more determined to pass it now. I really love this language and I hope to accomplish this goal of mine as everyone else! 皆さん、がんばって下さいね～！❤️
I never thought taking exam would be this fun🤪 by the way thanks for slowing your pace, its easier to follow your conversation, although its much slower than how Japanese people usually speaks, I like the way you talk better, it feels like you are telling me a story that are so engaging. I'll definitely hit that "subscribe" button.
I have been feeling really down about studying Japanese lately, but watching this video gave me some of my confidence back.. I hope it doesn't sound too strange : ') You talk in such an understandable way, thank you c:
I love your videos so much! You speak slowly enough for us foreigners to understand you. And you sub both in English and Japanese script. So awesome! Thank you! 😄
All these emotions you expressed while taking the test were spot on! I took the N4 last December + by the time we got to the listening section, my brain felt like it had been set on fire and towards the very end of the listening I was just circling the first answer that looked right lol (but I still passed!) If things were normal I'd be taking N3 next weekend but I see this as an extra year to study☺️
I took N1 maybe 6 or 7 years ago, and passed by some miracle. I didn’t know 50-60% of the words/grammatical expressions used in the exam. (I didn’t even study for it) My teacher gave me N1 mock papers to do week after week, told me to just focus on exam skills: learning to spot the options that are clearly there to confuse you, and to just ignore the passages in the reading test altogether. He said to just pick up what you need to answer the question and move on to the next question. So, er, no, I have no idea what was going on in N1 either.
I heard N1 level can contain words like: crystallization, diffusion, atoms, neurons, protons, names of specific minerals, ... So I think I will aim for N2. :)
My japanese speaking skill is pretty high (e.g., I understand everything you say and even find it harder to understand because you are talking so slow and I am used to normal speed😆), but I failed N2 and don't even feel like trying it again or go for N1, because I am not too good at reading Japanese. I kinda hate that the JLPT is so focused on that, because e.g. Chinese or Korean native speakers have it way easier to pass the N2 or N1 than like say a European who has to start from scratch when learning Japanese. I speak and understand Japanese way better (and more natural) than most of the people with N2 or even N1 that I've met. I just wish there was like an equivalent exam for testing your actual communication skills which are so much more important to live and work in Japan imo😅
Found your channel and actually really like how you put japanese kanji and English translation in the video. Truthfully help me to understand the kanji and the word itself. Subscribed 😊
Sees english in thumbnail. Hears first 3 sentences, understands a bit, "Hmm cool introduction". He doesnt stop, there are no subtitles, I panic, and now. I'm in the comment section. Still, much appreciated the fact you spoke slower than normal. I didnt understand anyway but it sounded polite lmao
I watched the video in 1.5 speed because it was too slow for me :') it's really great that you adapt your speed to a large audience, I wish I had found you channel when I started learning japanese

The pace in which you speak Japanese is just perfect for me to learn along with the Japanese subtitles.

Subscribed because of your slow speaking pace and clear pronunciation. Much appreciated!
I passed the N1 by accident in 2016. I planned to learn all the material for the winter test, but tried it out in the summer without having learned everything and passed. It was a bare pass. I managed to get most of my points in the listening and vocab sections, but the reading score was dangerously low.
How lucky 😭😭
N1テストは何度も受けたですが、なかなか合格できなかったです。大変困りますね。あんまり自信がないです。日本語は英語より難しいと思います。とにかく、2024年7月の分、合格するように、頑張ります！！！！
Looking at this made me tried the test even though I only learned Japanese through animes, mangas and shows. I tried the 2012 N5 test which I have gotten a 77/89, which is not too bad, considering I didn't learn it properly so I'm happy with the result! :)
Thank you so much for putting subtitles. You're really helping me a lot 😭
It's refreshing to see a male Japanese teacher... We guys aspiring to learn Japanese need to hear how to speak like a guy in Japan... 🙂
Yes, for Japanese that is a little more important. Even though I only know a handful of words and a few phrases, I have noticed that girls talk a little different from the boys.
Haha well said...there's no hiding when a guy learned Japanese by hanging out with girls.😂
自分は以前、会社の外国人の同僚がN2の問題集を勉強していてそのテキストを見せてもらったことがあったのですが見た感じN2でも結構難しかったですね、いやもちろん私は日本人ですからN2はパスできると思うんですが、外国の方がN2レベルになるのは大変だろうなぁと思いました、ましてやN1とかはほんと大変なんでしょうね。
It's so weird how I have been thinking nowadays to try for JLPT N5 while studying on my own and suddenly seeing videos like these on my recommendations hahah
Thank you for showing us this, I am even more determined to pass it now. I really love this language and I hope to accomplish this goal of mine as everyone else!
皆さん、がんばって下さいね～！❤️
Thanks for the clear voice and also not speaking very slow.
Also. cute.
I never thought taking exam would be this fun🤪
by the way thanks for slowing your pace, its easier to follow your conversation, although its much slower than how Japanese people usually speaks, I like the way you talk better, it feels like you are telling me a story that are so engaging. I'll definitely hit that "subscribe" button.
本当にありがとうございます、動画を見て本当に勉強になりました。助かります。
I got my N1 10 years ago but I forgot a lot and probably would have failed if I took it again
日本に住んだことがありますけど、
3年も経って、だんだん忘れてきました。😭 ヒトキさんの動画で刺激を与えて、これからもがんばります。よろしくおねがいしまーす✨
I have been feeling really down about studying Japanese lately, but watching this video gave me some of my confidence back.. I hope it doesn't sound too strange : ') You talk in such an understandable way, thank you c:
I love your videos so much!
You speak slowly enough for us foreigners to understand you.
And you sub both in English and Japanese script.
So awesome! Thank you! 😄
All these emotions you expressed while taking the test were spot on! I took the N4 last December + by the time we got to the listening section, my brain felt like it had been set on fire and towards the very end of the listening I was just circling the first answer that looked right lol (but I still passed!) If things were normal I'd be taking N3 next weekend but I see this as an extra year to study☺️
I wish you can pass the test 🤞
With your way of speaking, you would be the perfect language school teacher in Japan! ✨
I took N1 maybe 6 or 7 years ago, and passed by some miracle. I didn’t know 50-60% of the words/grammatical expressions used in the exam. (I didn’t even study for it) My teacher gave me N1 mock papers to do week after week, told me to just focus on exam skills: learning to spot the options that are clearly there to confuse you, and to just ignore the passages in the reading test altogether. He said to just pick up what you need to answer the question and move on to the next question. So, er, no, I have no idea what was going on in N1 either.
RUclipsのおすすめで出たので見に来ましたんですけど、やっぱり内国人の意見を聞くことができるせいか色々助けになる映像だと思いますた！有益な映像ありがとうございます☺️
ここからは私語ですが、私は今N2を勉強している高校生です😀 この映像に出るレベルよりは楽なレベルけど、やっぱり難しいところ多いし、しかも本年はコロナのせいで日程がヤバくなって色々困りますね💦 JLPT受験生のみんなファイトです！
僕は大学生から言語勉強し始めたから、これからもっと日本語とか上手になるよ！がんばってね😊
わかるwww
N1はどんどん難しくなるよね
聴解は簡単だけど、外国人には言語・読解は厳しい笑
Your speaking is so understandable! Thank you for making videos! 🖤🖤🖤
I heard N1 level can contain words like: crystallization, diffusion, atoms, neurons, protons, names of specific minerals, ...
So I think I will aim for N2. :)
@@kazumayoshikaze2898 not true, n1 is only grade 9 n2 is grade 6
初めて動画を見たが、話し方がとても分かりやすいです。これから応援しますよ。📣🤓頑張って下さいねー ♪♪♪
My japanese speaking skill is pretty high (e.g., I understand everything you say and even find it harder to understand because you are talking so slow and I am used to normal speed😆), but I failed N2 and don't even feel like trying it again or go for N1, because I am not too good at reading Japanese. I kinda hate that the JLPT is so focused on that, because e.g. Chinese or Korean native speakers have it way easier to pass the N2 or N1 than like say a European who has to start from scratch when learning Japanese. I speak and understand Japanese way better (and more natural) than most of the people with N2 or even N1 that I've met. I just wish there was like an equivalent exam for testing your actual communication skills which are so much more important to live and work in Japan imo😅
Found your channel and actually really like how you put japanese kanji and English translation in the video. Truthfully help me to understand the kanji and the word itself. Subscribed 😊
Thank you😆
なんか、声が落ち着く😄😄
You speak so clearly~ I understood the whole video without subs.
私は大学にもうすぐ入り、去年からN2合格したが、N1の結果を待っています😊合格しますように
この日本語は聞きやすいよ。ありがとうございます！！
tip: watch in 1.25 speed and he sounds more normal
Thank you! That's what I needed :D
Omg
Gracias por preocuparte por nosotros 😌👌 y tu inglés es muy bueno 💚✌️
will attend N1 test after 117 days and now I’m watching this (涙)
頑張って！！できるんだよ！
I recently started learning japanese and suddenly I watched his videos these videos are helpfull. Good job bro
Sees english in thumbnail. Hears first 3 sentences, understands a bit, "Hmm cool introduction". He doesnt stop, there are no subtitles, I panic, and now. I'm in the comment section. Still, much appreciated the fact you spoke slower than normal. I didnt understand anyway but it sounded polite lmao
There’re English subs~
You can go to setting and choose CC subs in English
@@Onomappu Now if feel dumb XD
I watched the video in 1.5 speed because it was too slow for me :') it's really great that you adapt your speed to a large audience, I wish I had found you channel when I started learning japanese
ワイ、日本人なのに通常速度で見て違和感なかった
I know this video is older but I AM SOOO HAPPY I found your channel. You are already like, my favorite Japanese RUclipsr.
韓国人でN1取りましたけど日本語で全然会話できない。。😭
私もだよ。N2合格してN1の勉強してるけど会話は上手く出来なかった。
I'll sub. I love they way you slow your Japanese, I have an easier time understanding it
I pass the N4 back then in December 2019, and now still learning for N3. I hope someday i can make to N1 (w)
Hahaha.. Same here!!!
話し方はすごく分かるやすい！👍🏼
this is a little funny for me because I watched this video, even though I'm a real beginner who has only learned 2 weeks and only knows hiragana😂😂😂
bruh, I'm like 6 weeks in and I barely know/remember the numbers, anything higher than 10,000 trips me up 😂
@@seirarevontuli2704 Anything above 10 trips me up 😂😂
Download the yomikata app it helped me with kanji but I don't know about the test.
