That a trap, because in japanese there are two words closer : 病院 byou-in hospital and 美容院 bi-you-in beauty salon and hairdressing salon. At first listening I think she goes in 美容院 for cut her hair.
very useful, thank you! Anyway I don't understand why do you use くる instead of いく when talking about friends in the second listening... I thought that you should choose the verb basing on the subject's (my friends) position and not on the speaker's one. Can you help me in understanding?
I'm definitely nowhere near N5 yet but this is just what I needed: I understood 30-50% of each story, and the second try was quite motivating as I was able to hear more, already knowing the meaning
This helped me a lot and it turns out I'm way further ahead in my N5 lsitening than I thought. I would't say i'm completely N5 but it seems like a very attainable goal very soon. Thanks for all the work you do!
But fortunately you get used to real speed very quickly, if just the videos were at that speed.. tried NativShark which emphasizes natural speed and as soon as one gets over the initial bump you realize artificially slow speech is actually doing the learner a huge mis-favor. It's like learning morse code at slow speed (yeah, nobody knows that that is anymore, I know) - it's useless.
I'm like N4 working on N3, and this is still an issue with real world conversations. The only solution is massive amounts of listening practice and vocab memorization. There are no shortcuts on developing your listening skills.
Wow, this really helps. The first time I understood all of the vocab and grammar but it was hard to piece it together. I read the Japanese subtitles and it made perfect sense. To me reading is so much easier than listening. I need more listening practice I think. The third time I was able to understand just fine.
I haven't had any fun lately, You bring me joy!I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. I like the essence how you live on. I need to be true to myself and find a job I am passionate about. I want to find a way to live as who I really am.
I like that the difficulty increased with each one! I think it gave me a good idea of where i'm at, which is probably about 3/4s of the way to N5 since the last one was a bit tough! Thanks for the video!
This video made me cry🤧I thought I finished the N5But it seems that I only finished part of it. Anyway, I was able to distinguish some sentences and words.
ありがとうございました! ありがとうございました! ほぼすべて理解できました! Your listening training is really awesome ! It is useful and interesting ! Special thanks for your help with pronunciation and pitch accents accuracy that are very important for us, the foreign speakers.
Nice video. Watched entire thing but was mainly pausing around 2nd reading to more actively learn. I am definitely far from even N5 level, but looking forward to understanding this, and then some.
I haven’t practice Japanese in a looong while after learning it for like 3 years (I was around a weak N3 when I stopped), so I’m happy I still managed to understand most of this.
I didn't understand all the details, but I understood enough words to get an idea of what she was talking about, except maybe the third one. I am happy with my progress this far. Seems like I am about 60-70% N5
This videos are excellent for progress checking. Thank you so much! If I could give a small suggestion, the third time (without subs again) could be a bit faster, like a normal speech.
Really good, what I've been looking for a while! In the subtitle where you say 日本は6月と7月にたくさん雨がふるので the subtitle says 雨がたくさんふるので Thanks for this amazing video!!
Of course! As long as you watch to learn and not just recreationally you are sure to improv using anime and video games in Japanese! I mainly use Honkai: Star Rail for listening practice. I find it really helpful to first listen to the audio in Japanese and then read the English subtitles. After playing a story quest once, I play it again in my alt account but with Japanese subtitles
I'm learning japanese in duolingo for almost 60 days and I could aknowledege 70% of the words (not the verb conjugations because it doesn't teach that, and I don't know where to learn that) and I was happy at least I can understand something🥺
ありがとうございましたもち先生!I almost got tripped up on the second one but once you said "Had a bit of my hair cut" I realised it was びよういん and not びょういん, that was a very close one!
I learn from animes and Japanses radio broadcasts, and some in RUclips shorts. I'm not learning formally in Japanese, but somehow, I understood the first sentence, slight in second sentence (I don't know yet the "kaimono" before the subtitles appears), and I understood the third sentence... (in practice 1, first try) I slightly understand the first sentence (except senshuu), fully understood the second and third sentences, and I realize that the mora is different (biyouin instead of byouin) in next sentences, and I understand the last sentence. (In practice 2, first try) Obviously, the thrid one is difficulf for me at the first try.
Not everything, but I could pick a few words :) I learn Japanese, but on my own, so I mostly read and write, but I have still hard time with spoken language. But I try to practice as much as possible. Thank you for your videos!
When she said she cut her hair I realized but there was a moment of "huh?" haha. By the way, ビデオ means VHS tape, the correct word for internet video is 動画 ;) Learned that common mistake from Kaname-sensei
If you add more context they can likely guess which one you meant. Like if you said "I don't feel good (or "I'm sick", I need to go to the hair salon" they likely know you meant hospital!
It's weird how much I understand but I'm just missing a few pieces, although I figured out what you were talking about at the end of your sentence in the first round of the first story based on context clues, then once you went through it again I realized what words I had confused with others, and then realized how to say months in Japanese, somehow haven't studied that yet. Then my attention waned and I started typing this comment instead of paying attention to the video 😅😅
The brain can learn languages fast if it is interested in content presented in that language. However, on very beginner level, content is rarely fascinating.
Damn. I understand most of it. Even though I didn't get few words like museum/left/right/june/july, I could make sense of all the sentences. And I never studied Japanese. Just years of japanese media consumption lol
The first 2 i pretty much understood the ideas of the sentence, maybe not translated literally into what a Japanese person would think but i understood it in my own way enough. The last one was extremely difficult because i didnt memorize direction vocabulary yet and there were words i knew but missed it because i didnt hear it properly. Im so close!
I'm almost at the point where I'm not translating the words into English in my head and just understanding them as they are as I hear them, if that makes sense. I'm improving slowly but surely 🥲
Seems I'm N6.
Keep doing! You'll get N5! And so N4... etc💪🏻💪🏻🙂
This made me laugh so hard😭
@@Jordan-Ramses she gets alot of these comments and she has responded that she cant help it lol just speed up the video
@@caratdeul5252 oh I understand I wasn't complaining. It is hard tho.
私も
The 2nd one I was like "why's she going to the hospital for her hair??"
That a trap, because in japanese there are two words closer : 病院 byou-in hospital and 美容院 bi-you-in beauty salon and hairdressing salon. At first listening I think she goes in 美容院 for cut her hair.
i also notice that hehe im confused what is the diffrence hehe
same haha
😂 me, why is she cutting the paper? An athlete is going to the hospital.
very useful, thank you! Anyway I don't understand why do you use くる instead of いく when talking about friends in the second listening... I thought that you should choose the verb basing on the subject's (my friends) position and not on the speaker's one. Can you help me in understanding?
these have been BY FAR the most helpful japanese listening videos ive found on youtube! please keep posting more!
わかりました!💪
I'm definitely nowhere near N5 yet but this is just what I needed: I understood 30-50% of each story, and the second try was quite motivating as I was able to hear more, already knowing the meaning
I learn English and Japanese, I understood your comment, I'm happy 🥹
Well presented! Wish I can reach JLPT N5 level soon.😁
Waaa! Thank you so so much!!
Very good video, thank you! I understood about 70-80% of the first two, but the third felt a little more difficult.
Hii could I know how much time did you study Japanese for?
Same. For the last one I picked up some of the words, but it feels like directions are a little more complicated than short stories.
I found the same thing. I clearly need to brush up on directions.
@@francesbell4386 Hii could I know how much time did you study Japanese for?
@@珠莉の日々 I studied on my own before (about 6 months), but with a teacher since March.

Thank you Mochi Sensei. Your lessons are really helpful!
WOW! 本当にありがとう⭐頑張ります!
I really appreciate these videos so much. ありがとうございました
OHH MY GOD I ACTUALLY UNDERSTOOD SOME THINGS!!!! I'm learning stuff!!!!!!!
these are honestly just good for listening training for me rather than for checking my level! great vidoes
I understood these! I'm absolutely thrilled. Ty for the video!
These videos are really helpful, thanks.
嬉しいです!もっと頑張ります💪
The second one got me.
I was like, "why are you cutting your hair in hospital?" 😂
This helped me a lot and it turns out I'm way further ahead in my N5 lsitening than I thought. I would't say i'm completely N5 but it seems like a very attainable goal very soon. Thanks for all the work you do!
Would be very understandable if the tempo was like this, but in reality everyone speaks very fast. you need more time for that.
But fortunately you get used to real speed very quickly, if just the videos were at that speed.. tried NativShark which emphasizes natural speed and as soon as one gets over the initial bump you realize artificially slow speech is actually doing the learner a huge mis-favor. It's like learning morse code at slow speed (yeah, nobody knows that that is anymore, I know) - it's useless.
And here I am listening at 0.25 speed barely keeping up 😭😆

リスニングがんばろう!👂✨
@@blintnihon a little under a year. So, I know basic grammar pretty well. Vocabulary is the hardest part now. Gotta break that barrier
Thank a lot sesnsei! I understood everything 💪🏻 will be having my jlpt n5 exam this winter, studying for it at the moment. Wish me luck
I haven't had any fun lately, You bring me joy!I love the kind and generous heartwarming atmosphere that you create, your kind, easygoing, warm vibe. I like the essence how you live on. I need to be true to myself and find a job I am passionate about. I want to find a way to live as who I really am.
This just randomly appeared in my recommended, and it's quite a good listening practice. I'm surprised I understood more than I thought
Sensei, this video is so useful. Please make more videos like this. It can train my listening skill in japanese.I like your videos sensei.
わかりました〜!!
I was so excited about the next n5 level video as I have finished all the videos that you made for n5.
Fantastic! Please wait for the next one!
Oooh this is amazing and will help a lot of people!
you are doing very great Sensei - thanks for this useful video :)
ありがとう⭐
Thank you! That was really helpful, that showed how my learning apps works perfectly! That’s so good! Ty!
Have a good start of the week. Monday is back ...
Thank you so much for watching!
I watched this 4 months ago and understood 20%. I watched this today and understood 100%. Those are the good feeling after hard work :D Gambarou!
Getting Started Sensie!!

Love it, very helpful

いっしょにがんばろう!😊😊😊
本当にありがとう〜❤
We want N4 Jlpt listening lessons
I'm surprised I understood the first time without subtitles XD
Thanks Mochi-sensei!
This video made me cry🤧I thought I finished the N5But it seems that I only finished part of it. Anyway, I was able to distinguish some sentences and words.
This video is absolutely more intricate than N5 level.

Please for more videos like this! s2 They are really helpful :D
お願いしますモチ先生。
Excellent learning videos. One of the best I've seen if not the best. 😊
ありがとう🎉
to anyone complaining about the speed being too slow and unrealistic. change playback speed to x2. hope this helps
Good idea. Increasing it by even 1.25 or 1.5 made it more comprehensible to me. When it's too slow its just a stream of syllables
I love this video! Thank you so much for this. ❤
Nice video. Watched entire thing but was mainly pausing around 2nd reading to more actively learn. I am definitely far from even N5 level, but looking forward to understanding this, and then some.

いつもありがとう🎉
I haven’t practice Japanese in a looong while after learning it for like 3 years (I was around a weak N3 when I stopped), so I’m happy I still managed to understand most of this.
Thank you for the knowledge sensei mochi also i love how your eyes sparkle when you’re smiling.
ありがとう☺
That was great practice 💓
I scarcely understood anything, but my goal is to soon be at this level. This video is amazing. ❤
I love these videos ❤️
ありがとう😊
oh boy, two months, just two more months and i can only get pieces of information
Your videos are by far the best to practice what I learned in my lessons, どうもありがとう

もう一つの役に立つ動画をありがとうございます。

Well imma get back to this video at some point. Gonna begin learning Japanese soon
Really good, what I've been looking for a while! In the subtitle where you say 日本は6月と7月にたくさん雨がふるので the subtitle says 雨がたくさんふるので Thanks for this amazing video!!
This is awesome Thank you!
ありがとう⭐
The accent really lovely ❤

3 years can get you to n2-n1 and further with anki premade decks + immersion + mining 😏
I had to listen at 2x still understood everything
Nice
I am so happy i understood it all🎉🎉
できました。ありがとうございます
yeah i definitely need more vocab
I did pretty good in the last two also the first was fine to me but I found that I understand the complicated vocabulary better.
Oh my god, I dropped learning Japanese, but now I want to continue
I'm learning japanese in duolingo for almost 60 days and I could aknowledege 70% of the words (not the verb conjugations because it doesn't teach that, and I don't know where to learn that) and I was happy at least I can understand something🥺
ありがとうございましたもち先生!I almost got tripped up on the second one but once you said "Had a bit of my hair cut" I realised it was びよういん and not びょういん, that was a very close one!
Yay few days and I can understand those kind of videos
Happy haha 🤣
Now lvl up ~~~
I learn from animes and Japanses radio broadcasts, and some in RUclips shorts.
I'm not learning formally in Japanese, but somehow, I understood the first sentence, slight in second sentence (I don't know yet the "kaimono" before the subtitles appears), and I understood the third sentence... (in practice 1, first try)
I slightly understand the first sentence (except senshuu), fully understood the second and third sentences, and I realize that the mora is different (biyouin instead of byouin) in next sentences, and I understand the last sentence. (In practice 2, first try)
Obviously, the thrid one is difficulf for me at the first try.
70% わかりました、ありがとう
😵💫 still very early days for me, but picking up words in sentences was pretty helpful ☺️
im pretty impressed that i could understand a lot of it 👍🏼 どうぞありがとう
Not everything, but I could pick a few words :) I learn Japanese, but on my own, so I mostly read and write, but I have still hard time with spoken language. But I try to practice as much as possible. Thank you for your videos!

i surprisingly understood everything but when i speak i'm probably N10
Thanks you very much, really usefull from france

びょういん and びよういん really got me there 😅
ビデオ は ありがとうございました先生

By the way, ビデオ means VHS tape, the correct word for internet video is 動画 ;) Learned that common mistake from Kaname-sensei

@@nimeobless ohh I see, thank youu
I'm gonna be in Japan one day and need to go to the hospital, only to be taken to the hair salon. If only I had practiced my pronunciation more. ⚰️
yeeaah
If you add more context they can likely guess which one you meant. Like if you said "I don't feel good (or "I'm sick", I need to go to the hair salon" they likely know you meant hospital!
seems like all of my 2 years of rigorous Japanese study is paying off that I am totally fluent till N2 grammar utilization.
I can understand, でも、難しいです。今日はもっと単語を覚えましたけど、難しい書いて話します。
thank you, is helpful.
👍🏻 great

If you are following minnano nihongo there are some parts of n4 too
i understoot the first part and i learned from just watching anime
びょういん and びよういん was sneaky! But I got it! More of these please!
super thanksありがとう😭⭐️
わかりました!😊
Well well would you look at that, I was able to understand everything with no subtitles... ありがとう先生❤
The brain can learn languages fast if it is interested in content presented in that language. However, on very beginner level, content is rarely fascinating.
I am definitely a passive n5. I understand 80% without subtitles and 100% with subtitles but i can't read kanji or active conversation.
Oh the びょういん vs びよういん was DIABOLICAL loooool, I was trying to understand why you were getting to the hospital to get your hair cut

It makes perfect sense as it is where I am. I am picking off most of the words but the sentences aren't gelling in my head yet.

I studied from minna no nihongo . ので as "because" was only taught in n4. But looks like I can finally understand n5 after completing n4😂😭 でもありがとう先生😊
