Over 1800 years ago, some Japanese guy saw Chinese characters and was like, “bruh, we gotta shoehorn this into our non-Chinese language to troll foreigners far into the future.” And that's how Kanji was born.
very nice. A kind remember to Japanese learners like myself tho: trying to learn how to WRITE kanji is the main reason why learners fail. And it's not even useful. So learn how to write them only if you like it or have a really good reason for that. 🙏
Thank you very much sensei....Today I finished studing all these kanji from this channel ...I did self studies .....Hope to follow your other channels too...Thanks a lot....
Duolingo teaches hiragana first, then some katakana and slowly some kanji. But I think kanji should be introduced with hiragana and katakana at the very same time, because I feel like learning the hiragana version of the kanji is just a waste of time and it makes the process a lot harder and longer.
Shinu (the only verb ending in "nu" according to my teacher) means "Die" The lines inside he drew are the radical for "Human Legs". Consider the legs in the box as a person being laid to rest in a grave. The pronunciation of "4" is close enough to "Shinu" to help. Much like how in the US they used to leave our "13" on elevators for "bad luck". They do/did the same in Japan for "4" since it sounds so close to death.
I visualised "four" as three short lines and a large bent line beneath the three lines. At "five", my brain gave up. On a serious note, very well done; very interesting and informative. FULL MARKS.
@uxiaintxausti6512 @DavyDavePapi I made one from screenshots but the image quality isn't great: drive.google.com/file/d/1BBUU6O5tw3TIJwuhfD-2wADT-KErq_Of/view?usp=share_link (first three pages are for tracing; the second three are blank)
I really thank you for doing this video but have a few issues with it. A revised version would be very welcomed 🙏 I would suggest better sound quality (there is a good deal of background noise and the pronunciation is hard to hear clearly). Also it would be great to have on-screen hiragana and an indicating of the "yomi" used (kun or on). You could strip out the audio and do another voice over and if you don’t have the time or software, pass the video over to someone who will annotate it for you. It would become a real winner then. Thanks again.
Sometimes onyomi, sometimes kunyomi. For example, the character for before is pronounced "zen" in this video, which is the onyomi, but it could also be pronounced "mae", which is the kunyomi. Same for "year", which he reads as "nen" but can be ready as "toshi" as well
I’m very new to learning Japanese and have to ask, is every kanji unique? Or is there a rule to make them, I’ve just started hiragana & katakana, but don’t understand how or why the kanji look the way they do
No, you will notice many Kanji combining to form new ones. It really isn't as hard as it looks at first. You start to notice patterns and such the more you do it.
I have a question about kanji handwriting. If i write kanji with a pretty bad handwriting does it still work? Is it still readable? Or do i have to write it perfectly without any single mistakes on the angle and stuff. i have a very bad handwriting im sorry😢
Yes. Onyomi, the Chinese reading, is used when the kanji is used in conjunction with other kanji. Kunyomi, the Japanese reading, is used when the kanji is used by itself. The person in the video uses a mix between the two. Listing off every single reading would be impossible.
What I'm really wondering is, let's say someone is speaking, how do you keep up with his speaking speed by writing? For example: 🗣️I am going to school. ✍️学校に行く。⌛🤔
You can't keep up with someone's speech even if you write using the Latin alphabet, so I don't understand why you expect Chinese characters to enable you to do that. This said, in practice people don't spend this much time on individual strokes, and hooks, and proportion. Look up "Japanese handwriting" and you'll find that much looks like chicken scratch writing.
Your penmanship is amazing.
OMG.. so beautiful.. even simple kanji like ichi looks so beautiful...
I’m from china and its very easy for me to understand
Over 1800 years ago, some Japanese guy saw Chinese characters and was like, “bruh, we gotta shoehorn this into our non-Chinese language to troll foreigners far into the future.”
And that's how Kanji was born.
i couldn't get used to kanji a while even though recently i realized how life is much easier with kanji, especially in reading aspect xdd
its not even hard bro what

If they continue to add furigana to the kanji, then I agree, I think it should be introduced much earlier than it currently is

I'm curious why you said し instead of よん for 四, especially since you said なな instead of しち for 七? Can you explain?
It's an alternative pronunciation, but I think either is fine to use.
Is it also suitable for the Chinese language?
