I see alot of people saying that the characters are the same as in Chinese, that's because it *IS* Chinese. Japanese has three alphabets 2 of them (hiragana and katakana) were created by Japanese people and 1 of them (kanji) which is Chinese characters. They just renamed it to kanji and some of the characters might be the same but have a different pronounciation and meaning. Japanese people also use Chinese characters for everyday words.
Well Japan has their own Kanji characters that don’t exist in Chinese too. Those are called 和製漢字 (わせいかんじ). But Yes, historically, it was adopted from China.
@@TeddyB3ARGaming Yeah, I realised a lot of kanji for different fish species don’t exist in chinese, only in japanese. Maybe its bcos japanese people live on an island
@@Greez996 what does this mean ? I translated in Google translate , it becomes neck , but when I translated it in yt , it says first but isn't first is 人 ?
And this is why good balance is important when writing kanji. I had to really focus to get what these kanji were, when they're normally super easy to read when written with the correct stroke order and balance
If you know chinese (like me) then japanese is quite easy! Like many of these chracters here, is also characters in chinese and they almost mean the same thing, just with different pronunciations. Like the one she said meant "Day" the character in chinese means "sun"
Actually we make kanji and we eat in pakistan its carrot and water and other ingredients to make it its very tasty whenever i hear my mouth get watered and i feel taste of kanji its spice+salty+sour taste its very nice tasty
Also, 口 can mean enclosure or opening as well. The reason why the mouth uses that word is because it is the opening where the food enters your stomach via the esophagus before digestion.
Absolutely loved this video! It's so refreshing to find content that's both informative and concise from someone who's a native with picture reference haha. Speaking of learning, if anyone's interested in diving deeper into Japanese, I've been using apps like Ling and other online resource such as NHK Japanese to expand my knowledge. They've been incredibly helpful in making learning accessible and fun. Keep up the great work with these videos-I'm already looking forward to the next one!
damn I forgot before you finished. Thankfully we have 26 simple characters that cover every sound or word in any language. Little tip Japan - spaces. So simple so so simple. I still love Japanese though because its difficult
@@really_dreaming Yes, I know Cantonese is traditional Chinese, but I'm saying that it makes the simplified Chinese and Japanese looks easy because Cantonese (traditional chinese) has way more strokes in writing

35 likes and no comments? Lemme fix that. Btw thanks for your effort, really appreciate it❤
Rice paddy is 田 isnt it
@@masterkj0912isn't it rice field
You don't tell the pronunciation 😅
Add two more 木 to get 森 😂
Also when you add a line above 白, it becomes 百 which means hundred
Hyaku right?

Soooo True
True. Kanji is literally Kan(漢) + Ji(字) . Kan means Chinese. And Ji means character. So it's literally called Chinese Characters.
Well Japan has their own Kanji characters that don’t exist in Chinese too. Those are called 和製漢字 (わせいかんじ).
But Yes, historically, it was adopted from China.

My mind after watching the short: ⬆️↖️↙️➡️⬅️⬇️
I actually grew up speaking Mandiran so I understand this since it has similar meaning and same kanji but don't know how it's pronounced in Japanese

As a Chinese speaker, it’s the same just different
Good luck to me on learning Japanese while trying to keep Chinese with me 😭
Hahaha same imagine if we just confuse the actual pingyin for the japanese pronunciation
itll be a lot easier to learn i bet!
@@goodluqx君も中国人ですか？
nah, if Chinese is ur mother language it’s hard to mess up between them
@@username_69807 but it’s still more comfortable to learn Japanese as a Chinese peaker
Omg it’s so easy and fun . Make more pls this help me kanji to remember easily
I started learning Japanese a few days ago, thank you for the knowledge
Did u quit? How much did u learn? Idk if i should learn japanese
@@panditas7679 honestly, I forgot about a lesson and panicked. But I still remember most of what I did learn
update, @@CavemanZerron？
how about now
I started up learning again
best way i've find to learn kanji. THANK YOU
You guys make it look easier 😅
These are probably the first grader level... but yeah it seems easier to remember with that, it helps 🙃
You forgot about 百, Hyaku

百 means hundred right?

他人が漢字を学ぶ苦痛を見て、何となく喜びます。
And this is why good balance is important when writing kanji. I had to really focus to get what these kanji were, when they're normally super easy to read when written with the correct stroke order and balance
For everyone who's wondering, yes, this is the same meaning and the same words in chinese
Don't forget you can also make 見,黒,車,言、撃、闇、曜、團、and 濃 with that, simple
I found the best way to learn kanji is to see them used in sentences
A vertical stroke in the middle, it’s a rice field 田
And when you combine rain with it, you get thunder!
@@AlbertTheGamer-gk7sn extend the middle stroke and make a curve, you get lightning/electricity.
@@yorgunsamuray And remove the rain and add half a fish, you get a turtle!
And now you reminded me of when filthy frank said: Welcome to rice field mf
@@yorgunsamuray you've just activated my trap card!
As a Japanese starter it was very helpful!
I'm Chinese and I have to say this teaching way is impressive.
Oh! Yes.
It is an easy way to teach my kids.
Greetings from Valledupar Colombia
I started to learn Japanese few days ago. First i got scared because it has so many characters to learn specially kanji...but i will learn it❤
You got this!
Yay now im gonna remember this and learn 2131 more. Its just easy
I love how all these kanji are thematically related! Really makes learning this language a lot easier
The kanji for white looks like a candle
More of five sec kanji please 🙏
日 means Sun originally. That is why it also means day and year, since they are both related to Sun.
You can also add 田, rice field
Wow, that makes so much sense 😂😂😂
I think knowing some chinese makes it easier to understand and predict the words & their meanings
Add a line on top and it's hundred!!
Kanji is so simple ~ (for Chinese)
If you know chinese (like me) then japanese is quite easy! Like many of these chracters here, is also characters in chinese and they almost mean the same thing, just with different pronunciations. Like the one she said meant "Day" the character in chinese means "sun"
日 also means day in Chinese, example 出走3日了。means 3 days.
Actually we make kanji and we eat in pakistan its carrot and water and other ingredients to make it its very tasty whenever i hear my mouth get watered and i feel taste of kanji its spice+salty+sour taste its very nice tasty
Put dakten opposite ,it becomes neckinclinate the bottom stroke ,it becomes ear,tur it 90 degrees keep the tenten it becomes blood,it goes on...
Also, 口 can mean enclosure or opening as well. The reason why the mouth uses that word is because it is the opening where the food enters your stomach via the esophagus before digestion.
This is marvelous! Suscribed and following now!
Now, please can you mention the strokes order? That’s is the most important thing about Kanji 😵💫😵💫
I love your teaching style very easy
In Chinese and kanji both day, mouth, white and fruit have the same meaning but different pronounciation
I knew the first two 😀 its a start
Love this❤ MORE PLEASE ‼️
Thank you for sharing 😊🎉
Daaammm that's was so good n easy u guys😄 keep it up 💖👏

Wow... Can you make more this type of kanji ?

I mean this is a useful method but I think "mouth" is square shaped while the others are rectangular but not square shaped.
Ooh that's amazing plz more of these videos 🥺🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
Also looks similar to 血 (blood) or 早 (early)
But that just became a candle 😭
SuperbMam.. from India
Good information❤️❤️❤️
I knew some of these characters because I studied Chinese for a while by my school
Stroke order and balance flew out the window. 😂
When 口 was added with a vertical line in the middle, it becomes rice field.
damn I forgot before you finished.
Thankfully we have 26 simple characters that cover every sound or word in any language.
Little tip Japan - spaces. So simple so so simple.
I still love Japanese though because its difficult
The issue with this is that the kanji for mouth is much more square than all the others, so learners please don't write the kanji like this. Lol
Same in Chinese 😊
Exactly the same in Chinese
You don't know how proud I feel already knowing them all
Add a line at the top and it becomes 100
Thank you very much sensei you helped me learning those kanji's
Learn Kanji more please
Its look hard at first but I get used to it
As someone who studies Mandarin, I am very familiar with the Kanji
This lady's sweet❤

Same thing In Chinese 口 kou 日 ri 目 mu 自zi 白bai all same meaning
Yeah, because it is from Chinese. Same meaning, different reading/pronunciation.
@@jemini4929 Chinese and Japanese have similar characters but different pronunciations.
@@xiao_yu8968 Yeah, that's exactly what I said

um, is it really important to learn those?

That’s wise👍
