  • Is VRChat really a productive tool for learning Japanese? We set ourselves 5 goals in order to test how well you can learn Japanese using this video game:
    1. Speak to a Japanese native speaker.
    2. Speak Japanese for a minute.
    3. Do a self-introduction in Japanese.
    4. Use a word that we recently learnt.
    5. Learn a new word.

    VRChat sure was an interesting challenge. Have you used it to practice another language? Will you give VRChat a go after watching this? Don't forget to subscribe for more videos!

    10:03 だべる。”Daberu" means to chat needlessly and lazily. It is like a slang. It is used among good friends, both adults and young people.

    I want to improve my Japanese by talking to other people in the language but I can't get myself to talk to strangers with my small Japanese knowledge 〒▽〒

    • @RoyandAimee
      @RoyandAimee  4 года назад +18

      It can be really scary to try and start talking to people! Maybe try practicing common conversation questions by yourself first so you know what you might say if you talk to a stranger. Also, in your everyday life, you could try and talk about simple things you are doing, out-loud in Japanese to get used to making sentences. 頑張って!

    I am a regular on Poppy Street, but it's definitely not an experience for beginner learners. There are way too many colloquialism thrown in, casual language and non-standard constructions used in there.

    • @RoyandAimee
      @RoyandAimee  3 года назад +2

      Yeah think you're 100% right. Since uploading this video a year ago, our Japanese has improved a bit. I think at an intermediate level is when you can get more out of using VR chat for Japanese practice. Especially if you're not living in Japan though, even as a beginner it can be a good way to see what 'real' Japanese is like compared to textbooks.

      Hmmm, for beginners I would recommend Human Japanese, free on the App Store! But for medium level, probably finding a conversation partner on Hello Talk would be good. I’m not a huge fan on memorisation apps 😅

    How did you get started using VRChat to learn japanese? I want to give it a try too but don't know ow to get started.

    • @RoyandAimee
      @RoyandAimee  3 года назад +4

      It's probably important to know a little bit of Japanese first and then use VR chat to practice saying what you've learnt. You kinda just need to put yourself out there and start talking to people. Some may not want to talk, but others can be friendly. And in the end, it's online so it can be less nerve-racking than if it was real life 😊

      We studied on and off in Australia for 1 and a half years and when we made this video we had been living in Japan for 6 months.
      We couldn’t really speak Japanese before we came to Japan at all though so finding ways to practice speaking was really important for us.
