hey i've discovered your channel a couple of days ago and it's a life changer! i studied japanese in university but once i graduated i stopped exercising and now i'm back at it (but only casually no classes or anything but hopefully i'll enroll into one) and your videos are sooooo good! thank you so much
It’s crazy. “I have the 事 of 見た.” That means “I’ve seen it.” But then I realize that it’s not only crazy in Japanese, it’s crazy in English too: “I *have* (seen it.)”. Suddenly I find myself a stranger to not only Japanese, but English as well! Same thing happened for me with 掛ける. I thought “why is “to hang” such an overloaded verb?” But then I realized just how crazy English is in this regard as well: hang a left, hang up, hang ten, hang out, hung up on, etc etc.,.
you don't learn a langage, you're learning how consciousness function. this is why I've such a passion for japanese recently, it's really mental. and as a french I've already created so much more forms of nuances and dichotomies. I won't learn another langage, but I'll master japanese.
@@Aeris_InJapan I’m curious- are you saying that: you speak French natively, and also English, and Japanese will be the last language that you learn, but you have decided to master Japanese?
@@LionKimbro I already quite mastered english, because I m learning Japanese from english mainly. I might even have more vocabulary in english somehow. I mean mastering, as being completely fluent like an average native and being able to listen every movies/series/youtube content without subtitles.
It's been really interesting to learn Japanese as a native English speaker for me, too! All the time I encounter English now and think 'why do we even say this?'. The only thing I still can't support in Japanese though is counters, haha.
Sure if you want to express it in natural English :) Literally though its asking if you have the experience of seeing something. "Have you not seen..." is the same meaning as "Do you not have the experience seeing..." just more natural English, but less literal Japanese.
@@GameGengo so you mean something like the sentences "have you...?" and "have you not...?" have essentially the same meaning to them as long they are question statement. Sorry for that "Haven't". Though I studied solely in English curriculum, I wasn't a bright student myself during my school years now when I realized that I wrote something that weird I am also laughing myself.
@@GameGengoWould the example "この女性を見たことはありませんか?" have a connotation of surprise, like "Really? Have you not seen this girl before?", or in this context is it just perceived as a question and functionally the same as using "...-ありますか"?
Does anyone know where I can read manga like Dragon Ball etc. Fully In Japanese for free? Thought it would be a nice way of some extra immersion, especially because DB for example has furigana. Thanks in advance!

"Verb + littleshittyword" was my least favorite of grammar points when I was learning English
Thank you thank you so much! 🙏🙏 you are making my Japanese learning so fun and enjoyable! Thank you! 🎉🫰

Can you make a All N3 grammar video, like you did for N5 and N4. It will be super helpful...
He did (it’s 7 hours long)
ゲーム言語の新しいビデオを見るたびに、見るしかないよ。
Thanks for this bite size grammar learning!
Thanks
Now i want to replay TES with Japanese dub❤
The Japanese in that is really difficult but at least there is a lot of it, also Starfield has a Japanese Dub as well as Fallout 4
can we also conjugate aru into the past form, will it make grammatical sense?
oh! When it's just ことがある and not た＋ことがある, it has different meaning!
So 見た means "saw"
And 見たことがある means "have seen"
2:17 Isn't「~見たことはありませんか」would more like "haven't you seen..."

"Have you not seen..." is the same meaning as "Do you not have the experience seeing..." just more natural English, but less literal Japanese.
