I'm leaving to go see Japan for the first time ever, in about 2 months so I'm trying to learn some japanese again with Duolingo, Renshuu and some other stuff. So this is a very welcome addition to my practicing schedule! Thanks for your informative videos 🙇
Thanks so much George on the Coles Notes-esque video on essential words and phrases! I added them to my translator app as favourites so I can reference them easily. This will certainly come in handy when I head to Tokyo first week on November. I’ve watched many of your videos to help me prepare for my upcoming trip (first time to Tokyo and hopefully not the last). Keep up the great content George and Heidi! All the best!
Excellent video (as always). Very well organized and practical. Also,, I did not know you could download a country file to use Google Translate off-line, nice tip.
Well, my first trip to Tokyo is in early October. I am a slow learner but I definitely will write down all the must know word in my notebook as a back up. Thank you for sharing.
This is quite a random question but… can you walk around with your coffee/drink? Like if your window shopping and get a coffee, should I finish it before leaving where I got it?
If you're just going as a tourist the important word is onegaishimasu. Kudasai is supposed to go with another word- the something you actually want and you're supposed to know what to call it. It requires vocabulary. Onegaishimasu can just be used standalone. blah blah blah blah blah blah blah y/n? y And once they do what they're doing you can infer what the blah blah blah is and maybe say daijoubu next time instead. Or if it's immediately obvious you told them the wrong thing, then you get to use the trifecta.... onegaishimasu.... aaa... sumimasen, daijoubu desu!
Hi, without knowing someone it can be hard. But you might want to check both VRBO and airbnb as they might be the easiest. Otherwise, there are apartment rental websites, but do note that for most places you need to pay extra fees to rent compared to most countries.
Leaving for Japan in 2 weeks. Product has mixed reviews by users. And, is it only useful if you have an iPhone? I presume An Android phone is incompatible,yes/no?market research needed more getting. Thanks anyway for sharing.
Hi, it works on both iPhone and Android. I agree with a lot of the reviews. The device is great for directions and using at places like at restaurants but for actual conversations, the translation can be slow. Hopefully, this will be improved.
Ha it was funny when you gave her the detailed directions and she just let you go on and on and then pulled out the translator and asked you to repeat it all over again.

Thanks! Have a wonderful time in Tokyo!
Excellent group of phrases! Thank you! (I was thrilled to be able to understand most of it.)
that's great!
That was so helpful, and earned my sub. If you could do more similar to this (every day service based phrases) it would be super helpful - thank you!
I’m terribly rusty with my Japanese and am nervous to use to skills
Thank for the video; it is a good start. And I will rewatch 😆
You can do it!
Super practical and to the point, thank you!
Arigato gazaimasu for an excellent introduction to these useful Japanese words and phrases!
どういたしまして! You're Welcome :)
Excellent video (as always). Very well organized and practical. Also,, I did not know you could download a country file to use Google Translate off-line, nice tip.
This is incredible! I just need it 10x slower and Japanese phrases repeated multiple times before moving onto the next 😅 I’m trying! Lol
This is very useful for travel. Hope you can occasionally teach us some more common phrases. Love your channel. Everything is direct to the point.
Thank you, we'll do our best :)
Arigato!! I've been trying to freshen up and find some simple phrases for my fiancé to practice before we go. This is perfect. Thank you guys so much
Fantastic! Have a great trip!
Another great and valuable video. Thank you so much guys
Can't wait for the writing lesson video.😁
Ha ha! I expect you to already know how to read and right nihongo or Malay 🤪
Thank you. Great video!
Thank you! I've already know a little bit of Japanesse and I will fly to Japan in 5 days for the first time!
Have a great trip!

Have a great trip!
I will also be trying out these phrases in Tokyo in November. Useful, informative video.
So glad it was helpful! 😁
Thank you! You both are so helpful! ❤
Thank you so much!
I enjoyed the video. And was looking at the ear buds. Still have not decided if I am going to purchase them.
So helpful!
Glad it was helpful!
so useful!
TQ, CK! 🙏🏼
This is quite a random question but… can you walk around with your coffee/drink? Like if your window shopping and get a coffee, should I finish it before leaving where I got it?
Most people finish food/drinks where they bought them. It’s less likely to spill it on someone that way.
@@KenshoQuest got it. Thank you 🙏🏼
thank you so much!!! very good, what do you say to: how much is it? We are looking forward to come to tokio in November!!
Hi, so ask how much is it say, Ikura desuka? or if you add kore wa ikura desuka? how much is this?
Have a great trip!
Sir one help - please suggest a hygenic - economic - cheap - best accommodation in and around (50 KMs) Tokyo. I plan to visit soon.
But with "te form" and objects kudasai is always better right?
Ex: "Camera o mitte kudasai" or "Tasukete kudasai" correct?
correct, always use kudasai with te form.
If you're just going as a tourist the important word is onegaishimasu.
Kudasai is supposed to go with another word- the something you actually want and you're supposed to know what to call it. It requires vocabulary.
Onegaishimasu can just be used standalone.
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah
y/n?
y
And once they do what they're doing you can infer what the blah blah blah is and maybe say daijoubu next time instead.
Or if it's immediately obvious you told them the wrong thing, then you get to use the trifecta.... onegaishimasu.... aaa... sumimasen, daijoubu desu!
thanks for ur helpful vid i want to study in shinjuku for 18 months on my own is there a cheap way to rent a single room in a house or a studio
