I’m def impressed w/ all the effort you put into learning Japanese and w/ the finished product. Pretty amazing you speak/think like a Japanese when you speak in Japanese. You can totally market your method of learning because it certainly worked! 日本の人達が英語を習得する上でもヒントになることがこの動画がにはたくさんあると思う。かなり感動しました！
Conversely, I’m learning English from this channel. Your English is so clear and easy to understand. It’s helps me a lot. Thank you so much. I love your videos! I’m a Japanese btw 🇯🇵
I saw you on Takashiis RUclips channel and wanted to say how I admire your persistence in learning japanese for seven years, from writing blogs, to posting on twitter and using apps. I made a promise to myself in 2015 when I was a high schooler, that I wanted to speak fluent japanese one day, but it was never a priority. Your video boosted my confidence in being able to self learn. 頑張って！
I'm an old guy who's a beginner at learning Japanese. Even at my early stage I realise that I wouldn't have made any real progress if I hadn't learned Kana (Hiragana and Katakana) when I first started out. Luckily, the concept of syllabaries was familiar, as I was taught some Hindi by Indian friends many years ago. Hiragana and Katakana work in a kind of similar way to the Devanagari and Gurmukhi scripts used in Hindi and Punjabi so they didn't scare me. Kanji, on the other hand, was a bit of a shock to the system! At first I thought it was basically impossible to learn that many characters, but now I'm just reaching the stage where learning Kanji is getting to be fun. Although I do use paid apps,sites and books, IMO RUclips is one of the best language learning resources.
What are your tips for speaking fluently? I can read, write and understand Japanese at an intermediate level, but I still struggle with speaking. I’ve been told my pronunciation is good (as in, my partner can understand me) but my pitch accent is off, so they know I’m a “foreigner.” TIA! 💖
I totally agree there’s little pronunciation differences that can give away that we’re foreigners 😂 My advice is to watch a Japanese drama/movie/RUclipsr and copy word for word what they say, keeping in mind their intonation/pronunciation. I still do this now when my pitch accent is off and it does the trick!
Recently I started learning English very hard, most strenuous in my life. I want to attend a foreign university after current one in Japan if I can get a full ride scholarship.
IMO, no worries if Hiragana and Katakana take you longer than say other people who claim they learned the Kana alphabets in like a day or two. I'm currently on my third try in my life to learn Japanese, and just like Ananya, it's taking me 1-2 months to master the alphabets... but guess what, I can read and write in the alphabets so... 頑張って下さい!
Hi! When did you practice speaking Japanese in conversation? It’s hard for me 😭 and I’ve heard that it’s bad to speak if you are making mistakes and I wonder what you think of that
Lang-8 has suspended new sign ups. It pushes you to sign up with HiNative instead :-/. I have used HiNative, and its fine, but you can't did blog posts, only specific questions.
I recommend flashcards 100% for memorizing vocabulary! For grammar, I just suggest making a lot of sentences on your own using the specific grammar and looking out for when people use them!
I try to implement it into my day so it's hard to put a number to how many hours I studied, but if I was just starting out, just 1-2 hours a day is fine in my opinion. What matters more is that you keep continuing! I studied a couple hours everyday, along with listening and watching Japanese media.

The Kana I found hardest to nail were the ソ ン シ and ツ Katakana characters. They still trip me up occasionally.

I may not be fluent, but i have a strong feeling that your pronunciation is reeeeally good💕
Aww thank you! Best of luck with your Japanese studies :)
それを「勉強」と思わないほど学習の過程を楽しむのが鍵なんだよな〜と思いました。
その通りだと思います！！
日本語上手すぎる。
英語の学び直しをはじめたので参考になりました。ありがとうございます！
You are my role model. I could relate to a lot of things you've done.
日本語勉強の良いアドバスRUclipsだと思います。英語を学ぶ立場からも、共感出来る内容です。貴方は非常に賢い方です。言語習得に限らず、文化やものの見方や考え方の違いについて、発信して頂きたいと思います。
Thank you for all the tips! You're the best 😁
So glad it helped😉

Nice vlog! Thank you for sharing! Arigatoiu 😊🇯🇵🌸
Thanks for the comment!❤️

English is definitely a hard language to learn, but I wish you the best!!
I'm learning English indeed, but now I'd like to read in Japanese! 🙏

Yeah honestly it can take longer than a month for sureee. If you’re doing it right, in order to really master them it should take longer

Thanks Yumna!!!❤️

Probably 1-2 years into studying! Find a language partner who will not judge your mistakes and corrects them!
Lang-8 has suspended new sign ups. It pushes you to sign up with HiNative instead :-/. I have used HiNative, and its fine, but you can't did blog posts, only specific questions.
Really! I’m surprised to hear that, what a shame it was really a great service..
@@hiananyaa yeah, I was legit excited to have sometime look over my writing for free then....denied. Maybe it'll open up at some point.
jdzspace33 have you tried Hellotalk? You can get in touch with natives who will correct your blog posts!!
shall download note! no idea how i'm gonna use it XD
what are your recommendations for memorizing grammar and vocabulary!!

日本語ネイティブと日本語を学習している超上級者で異なる点はいくつかありますが、ここで1つあげると｢の｣を入れる/入れない場所です。これは超上級者やその上と言ってもいい超々上級者でもよく間違いが見られるわりにネイティブの日本語話者は全くといっていいくらい間違わないところなので、日本語ネイティブ/日本語非ネイティブの感覚の違いが露骨に出ます。この動画で言うと｢勉強コツ｣とは日本語ネイティブは絶対と言っていいくらい言いません。この場合は｢勉強のコツ｣と、｢の｣を必ずと言っていいくらい入れます。次に、｢勉強仕方｣と書いてましたが、これも日本語ネイティブなら10000人いたら9999人は｢勉強の仕方｣と｢の｣を入れて言います。何故ここでは｢の｣を入れるのか、入れないとネイティブ的には不自然なのかについての説明ですが、厄介なことに私には上手くできません。日本語学を専門的に勉強している学者の方(日本人のほうがいいでしょう)に聞いてみると答えが帰ってくるかもしれません。
また、｢勉強仕方｣という言い方は大変不自然ですが、｢勉強方法｣というと自然です。これは日本人もよく使います。つまりこちらは｢の｣を入れません。このあたりがネイティブと非ネイティブで、非ネイティブの方がかなりの上級者であっても頻繁に差が見られるところです。
因みに、｢勉強方法｣ですがこちらは絶対に｢の｣を拒絶するというわけでもなく、｢勉強の方法｣と｢の｣を入れても自然です。うまく言えませんが｢仕方｣という単語は何かを修飾したい場合は｢の｣は入れないとダメですね。つまり｢～の仕方｣としないとネイティブの感覚では落ち着かないです。｢方法｣だと｢～方法｣、｢～の方法｣、どちらでも自然、もしくは深掘りすると｢～｣の単語によって｢の｣を必要とするかしないかが変わるとかそのような要素もあるかもしれません。
外国人の方にはものすごくややこしいと思われるかもしれませんが、日本人の場合はこのあたりは小学校の低学年くらいの年頃にはもう感覚的にわかるようなことなので、ネイティブの領域に挑むと言うならば避けては通れないポイントと思われます。
Been studying for 2 years. Know about 1100, Kanji but I still get stuck on the damn katakana at times.
Omfg pls some tips for memorizing kanji
あなたみたいな頭いい女性がどうして日本に興味をもったの？知りたい…
そう言ってもらえて嬉しいです🥺🙏
キッカケは漫画とアニメでした！それから知れば知るほど日本の文化が魅力的に感じました。色んな日本人の方と会話をするために日本語を勉強しています😊
@@hiananyaa そうなんですか！日本文化を好きになってくれてとても嬉しいです。また動画楽しみにしています☺️
日本人の方と直接会うことがほとんどないならば、様々な方法で独学をした後でも、日本語を学ぶのになんか限界がありますかな。。
やっぱり限界はあると思います😢でも、ちょっとしたニュアンスとか普段あんまり聞いてこなかった言葉ぐらいかな。周りに日本人がいない場合は、できるだけhellotalkを使って色んな人と電話するとかで直接会えなくても日本語がすごいレベルまで上達できると思います！
@@hiananyaa おすすめありがとう。いつかそのアプリを使ってみます
I was wondering how long do you recommend studying every day and how long did you?
I try to implement it into my day so it's hard to put a number to how many hours I studied, but if I was just starting out, just 1-2 hours a day is fine in my opinion. What matters more is that you keep continuing!
I studied a couple hours everyday, along with listening and watching Japanese media.
@@hiananyaa Thanks
もうハーフの日本人が、流暢な英語を話してるようにしか見えなくなってきた。
😂😂
ありがとう
And Ananya., don't learn okinawa hogen!😂
Would you recommend VRchat for output and getting used to irl Japanese?
Yes! Haven’t tried it myself but I think it’s a good method
@@hiananyaa ❤

@@hiananyaa thank ya so muchh..❤️✨❄️
日本語の字幕もアナンヤさんでしょうか？ m(_ _)m 参りました。
え⁉️留学経験なしでこれ⁉️
ホンマ⁉️
実は生まれ育ち日本の神戸か東京の新小岩（確か日本で一番インド人人口多いん違ったっけ⁉️）やなくてです⁉️
でもこれだけ外国人アクセントなしにしゃべれるって事はホントに一生懸命やったのがわかります。
どうして日本語に興味があったか？
