@Zeym Just write Sam. Don't try to use glyphs = pictures, to represent sounds, it is very confusing. The Japanese are familiar with Romanization, i.e. Roma-ji.
There are a few factors in how to speak Japanese . One place I discovered that succeeds in merging these is the Fergs Magic Blueprint (check it out on google) definately the most helpful remedy that I've seen. Look at the super info .
Now that you master hiragana and katakana,you have to enlargen your vocabulary,and then learn kanji,while learning kanji,try remembering some and help your self by mastering sentence structures. Keep widening your vocabulary then when you get a good amount of kanji,as im talking,the "good amount of kanji" is basically 3-4 years of japanese language studying,you can start learning grammar and practicing it until you become something better than newbie. While you're at it keep widening your kanji characters knowledge and then try going to japanese videos and read japanese comments.. if you one day,that day you are able to read and understand all the comments,you know you've reached a very good level. It will motivate you to become better and you will eventually become a fluent japanese talking peep. *_Then after all this, you will realize that you've gone through this severe hell just to watch some anime without subtitles,therefore you will even realize how it wasnt worth all this.._* Dont give up! 😊
It's not just the anime that made me do it lol I've been studying japanese since i was in 6th grade I'm now in 8th i have a couple more years to go but I'm doing pretty good 🤩👁️😜👁️🙃👿👃🏽✋🏽
No, don't learn vocabulary separately from Kanjis, they make vocab so much easier to remeber. Also it took me less than a year to learn about 700 kanjis so don't overexaggerute the amount of time it takes to learn japanese. I started with hiragana, katakana and then simple grammar and vocab. One of the first kanjis I wrote was 歳 , pretty hard for beginning, but still better than totally skiping learning kanji.
And that's only like, the 20 easiest ones out of several thousands with readings that are sometimes shared between characters and some looking very similar to others. And I thought learning the ~200 irregular verbs in English was hard, silly me 🤪
Guys .... I really appreciate all the effort you put in organising and simplifying everything for us, Risa and Alisha thank you for this amazing presentation , for Risa: “you are just so cute when you speak English *^^* cuuuute haha. Thx for all hidden team member for their efforts. Best learning channel in the world .
Hiragana: Got it. Logical. makes sense. Katakana: Yes. Got it. Very similar. Ok, what's next, japanese is pretty straight forward. Kanji: "Ok so tree and person equals rest and mouth and legs equals older brother. Any questions?" I'm sorry, what?
The kanji for "(Human)legs" also can mean "Support", and the kanji for "Mouth" can also mean "Voice" or "Opinion". So, I think it may be referring to "Older bother" as a "Supportive voice".
actually Hiragana is also based in Chinese characters just modified by Japanese, Korea also uses Chinese characters long ago ,but they made their own in a way more easier called Hangul
which is easier, learning English especially vocabulary or learning Kanji, sometimes I wonder. Since I'm Japanese I can use most of Kanji that Japanese learn between elementary school and high school, but I can use English only a few. When it comes to native English speaker, it may be vice versa. I want to know how people feel. And all I want to say is: I love both Kanji and English!
Im a Native English speaker, for me Kanji is way harder, isn't there some two thousand different characters + 2 separate alphabets Hiragana and Katakana. Its a lot to remember
I think Kanji will, in most cases, be harder for a non-Japanese native speaker, unless, of course, they are Chinese. Your English seems to be going quite well, keep it up!
Probably no one actually needs to go to school to learn English. But my guess is you were able to properly learn all those kanji because of the well-structured education system in Japan and because Japanese start learning kanji very young. You should appreciate how lucky you were to get a great education.
Could you make a video on how do you create these presentations? An alternative would it be to provide a template, but probably you would not allow to do that.
I enjoyed watching this video. It's none of the amusing one's, but what was important for me was meanings. Maybe the most important... Thank you for explaining from direct kanji to meaning of a particular block. But still... many of those explanations were way too simply said or ignored, for example 茶. I had to look for direct meaning. Yeah, that's good looking for answers, but ignoring some of those blocks were a little bit frustrating. Graphics and segments (reading, meaning, stroke order) were made very simple and easy to remember. I'd wish to expand a little bit fragmentation of those kanji blocks, because i sometimes need answer i cannot find and without mnemotechnique learning is much more difficult. For example "flower" was explained beautifully. Plant that changes :) Thank you for this video, maybe not consequent in some parts but very helpful in understanding.
0:52 While they did originate from China, they did so a really long time ago. This has caused some Kanji to be a little different from even traditional Chinese characters.
片假名 and 平假民 also derived from selected Kanji or Hanzi for Phonetic usage and then using 草书 or 行书 stroke style to simplify the Hanzi or Kanji into 平假名&片假名 If not mistaken, 平假名mostly used by women in ancient times
Like on reading: コウ me: oke I can remember that Light on reading: コウ me: WTF BUT THAT WAS "LIKE" Edit: Oh looks like mouth's on reading is also fucking コウ!
Translation: Yes / (something) Thank you so much Risa and Alisha [the next four characters mean: Japan + Language = Japanese (wo[o]) then idk the rest ok guys dont judge aa
This is good very organize and simple . learning radicals and its origin is fun and can help to remember the kanji. This might be too much for someone who is just learning kanji but if you are reviewing its easy
I've seen ur hiragana, katakana and obviously this one.. In the end of every video Risa senpai tells us which video we should watch next... What about after this.. Should I watch the grammar one???
Now that you master hiragana and katakana,you have to enlargen your vocabulary,and then learn kanji,while learning kanji,try remembering some and help your self by mastering sentence structures. Keep widening your vocabulary then when you get a good amount of kanji,as im talking,the "good amount of kanji" is basicly 3-4 years of japanese language studying,you can start learning grammar and practicing it until you become something better than newbie. While you're at it keep widening your kanji characters knowledge and then try going to japanese videos and read japanese comments.. if you one day,that day you are able to read and understand all the comments,you know you've reached a very good level. It will motivate you to become better and you will eventually become a fluent japanese talking peep. *_Then after all this, you will realize that you've gone through this severe hell just to watch some anime without subtitles,therefore you will even realize how it wasnt worth all this.._* Dont give up! 😊
In James Heisig's Remembering the Kanji, he lists 世 as 'generation' and 界 as 'world'. But the two together spell "sekai" which is the Japanese word for 'world'. Even after memorising 500 Kanji, it's still really confusing. Maybe the two meanings in RTK are only the radicals/primitives meanings.
Think a little further. English. age = time but it can also means "world". The Bronze Age. We can say the Bronze World. Words are flexible in their meaning.
Do you teach all the radicals somewhere in your videos or on your website? I heard there were 214 radicals (and that's plenty) so could you recommend where I might find a chart that has all of the radicals or multiple charts that all together have all of them? Another question, do Japanese kids learn the radicals? If so, how do they learn them? Do they use charts (like the kind I'm looking for but not finding), or do they learn some other way? Arigatou gozaimasu! (I think I spelled that right)
Have you read the book "Falling Leaves: The Memoir of an Unwanted Chinese Daughter". From memory, the author mentions her calligraphy-loving grandfather saying exactly what you said about the kanji for endurance.
to be honest, I still dont get the difference between , on and kun reading:/ how do you differentiate them and when should i use the on or kun reading?
You use the Latin based word and pronunciation when you want to intimidate other people. Like Star Trek villains who always speaking using French based words instead of English based words.
I have a question, they told us that every Kanji has its own meaning but when the Kanji is a part of a sentence I have heard that the meaning changes how can I know its meaning? Pls bc I am really confused
n 20 I think it just means that the Ida of something can be something more specific in the context of a sentence. Like jin means man but in a certain context of a sentence it could mean human being instead. Just my thoughts. I could be wrong tho.
Kanji logic be like: "This is the leg radical, this one means eye. Together they mean 'see', because an eye that is mobile can see. This the legs radical and this one means mouth. Can you guess what it means?" "Oh yeah, I know, a mobile mouth, that must mean 'talk'". "It means 'older brother'". "WTF??"
i haave a doubt that is we pronounce kanji by hiranga and katakana words above the kanji word but how will we pronounce kanji if they don't have on reading or kun reading pls tell me i'm struggling with this for a while
What are the extra kana in brackets when talking about reading of the kanji? Do you just put random stuff in there to confuse me? Why not explain?? Im already confused about stroke order and have to google each kanji, because you only explain the stroke orders of the radicals, not the kanji you teach us.

Your English subtitles are repeatedly wrong. Suggest you ask a better translator to contribute. You currently probably have a Chinese to do this translation.
Rhibab I think it depends, since it’s an interpretation and represents an idea. It’s likely that the Japanese meaning is close to its Chinese counterpart
Hi Rhibab, Thank you for posting. I've heard that the most of them mean the same in Chinese and Japanese, and the others not even if it is written in a same way. There are also simplified characters in Chenese. Keep studying with JapanesePod101.com Regards, Miki（美希） Team JapanesePod101.com
The kanji is the glyph. 車 in modern terms can be car = English automobile = French Sounds are not universal, only glyphs are universal. Like chess glyphs. ♘= knight, horseman, cavalry and that's just English, not even every other languages.
i just want to know that u write ON reading in katakana and KUN reading hiragana does that changes any things or i can write them in both ways ? does that change the meanings of the things if i write them in any one script ? plz can anyone solve my doubts
I don't think it changes anything. I don't know why they do that, because I would say it's wrong to write in katakana, since only foreign words are written with that.
Radicals aren't the building blocks of Chinese characters. Radicals only serve the purpose of indexing a character in dictionaries. Radicals are only 400 years old. The first dictionary with the 214 radicals was the 康熙 dictionary. You should rather talk about components. There are six types of characters the 六书. By gar the Most commen Type has a meaning and Sound component. There are more sound and meaning components than radicals.

*open your
心*
@@gunweizard6125 Well, think this way: There's a serial killer with an axe behind you, you're trying to run away but he's really near to grab you.
The word 休 is derived from a person resting under the tree, chinese Characters/Kanji Characters are usually derived from drawings in words
The kanji for "(Human)legs" also can mean "Support", and the kanji for "Mouth" can also mean "Voice" or "Opinion".
So, I think it may be referring to "Older bother" as a "Supportive voice".
I'm going to need a Japanese calligraphy pen for this...
Yess i really recommend that
Or use a Chinese calligraphy pen.
Lol it's not needed. People say as long as it's neat and you can read it you don't need to use it

I Love her And her cunning teaching
every single radical is "very simple" to write, so I'm scared for when they start saying "this one's hard"
One time i was checking radicals and there were multiple that took 16 strokes, i thought, “in what kanji am i ever gonna need this” lol
when your voice is so clear that the RUclips subtitles can understand it (love these vids btw!)

why u didnt put the meaning of kanji in japanese its written in english and only katakana separately

What are the extra kana in brackets when talking about reading of the kanji? Do you just put random stuff in there to confuse me? Why not explain?? Im already confused about stroke order and have to google each kanji, because you only explain the stroke orders of the radicals, not the kanji you teach us.

Does a Kanji means the same thing in japanese and in Chinese ?
Rhibab I think it depends, since it’s an interpretation and represents an idea. It’s likely that the Japanese meaning is close to its Chinese counterpart
Hi Rhibab,
Thank you for posting.
I've heard that the most of them mean the same in Chinese and Japanese, and the others not even if it is written in a same way. There are also simplified characters in Chenese.

@@chisaime It also means the same thing in Vietnamese and Korean.
I've heard Japanese say they can pretty much read a Chinese newspaper in China and get the meaning.
i thought kodomo meant child? why say kodomo if you can just use the kanji?
The kanji is the glyph.
車 in modern terms can be
car = English
automobile = French
Sounds are not universal, only glyphs are universal. Like chess glyphs.
♘= knight, horseman, cavalry
and that's just English, not even every other languages.
Kanji is like the gold standard.
And then you have your dollars, yen, euros, pesos, pounds, etc.
Because you cannot transmit a glyph through the radio.
But how do people have the time to write that 29 stroke character every time? Isn’t it inconvenient?
Some people write it in cursive or just in hiragana form
So it's saving time
The harder it is, the more enduring it is.

totemo suki desu. arigatoogozaimasu!!!!
Did I finish my jlpt n5 with this ??
We don't know, but keep us in touch ;)
Kanji is very cute.
i just want to know that u write ON reading in katakana and KUN reading hiragana does that changes any things or i can write them in both ways ?
does that change the meanings of the things if i write them in any one script ?
plz can anyone solve my doubts
I don't think it changes anything. I don't know why they do that, because I would say it's wrong to write in katakana, since only foreign words are written with that.
Because on-yomi is Chinese reading, so technically it's a foreign language
My brain exploded within the first three minutes
lessons are really nice but sound effect "tuku...tuku" is so nervous...

Radicals aren't the building blocks of Chinese characters. Radicals only serve the purpose of indexing a character in dictionaries. Radicals are only 400 years old. The first dictionary with the 214 radicals was the 康熙 dictionary. You should rather talk about components. There are six types of characters the 六书. By gar the Most commen Type has a meaning and Sound component. There are more sound and meaning components than radicals.
