Can i ask you? I have group on FB witch learn japanese for arabian people.. May i take Small clips from your videos... Or is it okay for me to use your explanation to write lessons in the group... Please respond.
THANK YOU for this! I usually pause to watch the onscreen transcript, but this is helpful too because RUclips shows translations of your comment text, and that sometimes helps me get the jokes. But it doesn’t help me get ALL the jokes … for example, may I ask you, or anyone here: in the dialogue between sensei and Takashi, the auto-translation explains the “breasts” joke … but what is the joke with おはようごぜえます in the first place, is that an error in pronunciation, or is it a different but impolite form of the greeting? I didn’t understand that one. Thank you again!! ArigatougoZAImasu!!
One of the uses for じゃない/じゃん sounds like it could sub out for "if it isn't." Like when you see a friend in English, a lot of times you'll say "Well, if it isn't my old buddy Sam!" 「あ、サムさんじゃん/じゃない！」fits the same bill. Same for if you open a unexpected/exciting gift. Depending on your inflection/how you say it, it could be "Oh! Well, if it isn't a Dyson! Thank you!" or "Oh, well if it isn't a mug. Guess I'll find some room for this one. Thanks, I guess."
Glad to see you getting the deserving praise. The dialogues are so good! Hearing Kaname curse in English is always so hilarious to me for some reason too
Thank you so much! Your lessons are so invaluable! I don't think even most paid courses cover these topics in this much detail. It's literally the closest I've gotten to 1:1 personal tutor!
Love your videos! The attention to put Furigana everywhere, teaching intonation, speaking in a clear manner and not too fast. Will end up watching all of your videos!
i'm not learning Japanese. i'm mostly watching because i enjoy the fun skits :) . and actually, i really love the serious and dramatic skits, too. (i also like seeing how Japanese has structures so different than English, but that's a secondary enjoyment for me!)
Recently encountered じゃないじゃない in a novel, got confused, should have known they both sound different from each other. It makes so much sense when it is spoken and listened rather than reading it in writing
I feel kinda dumb fr not realizing じゃん was short fr じゃない, but more surprised that no one bothered to mention it in other videos mentioning that grammar point. かなめ先生、ありがとうございましたね〜！
Now hold up! I did not give you permission to have me on the edge of my seat like that for the "Sato Mai" example. I was clutching my pearls, straight gagged, flabbergasted, too stunned to speak! I felt like I had walked in on something; it was that convincing lol I know you write stellar stories
Another wonderfull lesson from Kaname Sensei! Thank you very much! I wanted to know if you have any plans on making a video about させる? Even though i already know about it, watching your videos always teaches me something new about japanese forms and expressions! Once again, thank you very much for your awesome videos!
I lived in Japan for 4 years and have taken many classes and I still gotta say these lessons are amazing! I thought I understood this concept but hearing it explained to articulately is amazing! Looking forward to more classes
Love your videos, thank you, I watch them at least 3x and can't get enough of it. The daily conversation uses are so useful, thank you!! And yes, love your swearing too!!! lol.
I always look forward to watching your videos. I also checked your RUclips channel this morning to see if any new videos have been uploaded. Honestly, I have benefited a lot from your videos. (May the Creator(God/ ALLAH) reward you well, I pray!)
Thank you so much for this! I haven't had じゃない properly explained to me. Knew the jist of all the uses but not about the different pitch for each type. Kaname-sensei is SO AWESOME! And also the dialogue is SO natural. Perfect for shadowing to get used to colloquial Japanese. Once again, thank you so much, Kaname-sensei!!!
That downward inflection of surprise or disappointment is similar to something in English. You say something like, "Well, if it isn't the man himself^😁" or you say "Well..😡 if it isnt the scumbag himself\.."
Another day, another thing Finnish and Japanese people agree upon: if someone surprises you with a nice gift, you respond with disbelief and essentially saying "no, it isn't!" in a falling pitch 🤝
I really appreciate Kaname's use of discursive tone in his explanations. On a related note, Ninja Warrior's English dub is superb; it captures the discursive tone, the sentiment, of the performance - at least, /I\ think so.
You know, I had a lot of trouble making sense of the actual negative question (with emphasis on な) I kept thinking of the previous example, and it just sounded weird to me. Eventually, I just replaced トイレ with ペン in my head and immediately thought of a guy picking up what seems to be a pen and being confused because it doesn't write :D Suddenly this made a whole lot more sense to me. I've definitely heard all of these before and they feel pretty intuitive, that one particular example aside.
I really wish someone would take the time to compile all these sample sentences into Anki decks. Its so hard to find high quality REAL AUTHENTIC decks. This is what all of us should be modeling from. It is so high class.
The “じゃない” question intonation is one I actually picked up subconsciously, super intuitive if you ask me. (Can’t say the same for most other parts of the language, lol.)
That cleared up some confusion I had about じゃない. The textbooks only ever taught me the negative form and didn't explain the expectations based meaning. Caused a lot of misinterpretations for me. I think I understand it a lot better now. Ty Kaname!
0:21 Negative statement 0:52 Emphasizes what someone said is inappropriate 3:32 I guess... (you guess/opinion/idea; ask for confirmation) いいんじゃない 別にいいんじゃない 7:04 Something turned out to be different than what you had expected; disagreeing with someone
Great video, very helpful! Could I suggest that you look at using some light diffusers or something similar to reduce the glare from your lighting off of your glasses? Your setup is great but I think the glare was very noticeable for this video
I would have to agree both that this video was its usual high quality, and that future ones would benefit from less glare reflecting from his glasses. 🎄
In my head, at least i always translated じゃない as something like "isn't it?" Or "it's not" Due to じゃない" being a negative question or answer based on context. It almost shouldn't be considered the same word when used in different contexts. I suppose the easiest example would be "かみ" hair/paper/god not the same things but uses the same kana (in aware kanji exist in this case, but if じゃない had kanji it would be the same thing)

あ、本当だ。あの田中さんの隣にいる女性誰だろ？恋人かな？
妹じゃない？田中さん妹いるって言ってたし。
あ、今日ヨウスケの誕生日じゃない？
あ、そうだ。完全に忘れてた。
どうする？何かプレゼント買いに行く？
別にいいんじゃない。俺あいつから誕生日プレゼントもらってないし。
別にいいんじゃない。
ねえ、親戚にもお土産買ったほうがいいかなあ？
別にいいんじゃない？みんなにお土産買ったらお金かかるし、スーツケースにも入らないよ。
はい、これプレゼント。
え、なにこれ？うわ！？これダイソンの掃除機じゃない！私これ欲しかったんだ！ありがとう！
はい、これプレゼント！
え、なに、これ？なんだ、マグカップじゃない。
え？要らなかった？
正直ね。うちマグカップいっぱいあるし、しかもこれあまりかわいくないし。
あら、田中さんじゃない！どうしたの？こんなとこで。
いやー、冬用のジャケット買おうと思って来たんだ。
これダイソンの掃除機じゃない！
これダイソンの掃除機じゃん！
あ、田中さんじゃない！
あ、田中さんじゃん！
あ、もう6時じゃん。そろそろご飯食べに行く？

ねえ俺、クッキー焼いたんだけど食べる？でもあまりおいしくないよ。
ああ、食べる食べる！ありがとう！うん！これおいしいじゃん！
あら、絵描いたの？見せてごらん。あら、あんた絵の才能ないと思ってたけど、思ったより上手にかけてるじゃない。
三浦さんって、みんなが怖い怖い言うからどんな怖い人なのかなあって思ってたら、思ったより紳士的で優しくて素敵な人じゃない。
エントゥージ・・ああ、だめだ！英語難しい！俺言語の才能ないのかな。
いやいや、お前まだ始めたばかりじゃん。まだ英語勉強して一週間だろ？言語なんてそう簡単に習得できないって。最低半年は頑張れ！
ねえ、明日どっか旅行にでも行かない？
でも天気予報によると明日雨じゃん。
でも最近天気予報あまり当たらないじゃん。雨が降ったら雨が降ったで、その時考えよう。
じゃあ俺そろそろ帰るね。
えー、もう帰るの？ねえもう少し飲んでこうよ。私たち一緒に飲むの久しぶりじゃない。
いやでも俺ら明日仕事じゃん。これ以上飲んだら絶対後悔するって。
ねえ、もう一軒だけ行こう！もう一軒だけ！お願い！お願い！来月私の誕生日じゃない！
来月の誕生日なんて関係ないよ。俺の誕生日来週だからね。
え？来週誕生日なの？いやじゃあ今日は飲まないといけないね！
ねえ、このゲームやってみる？すごく簡単だよ。
うわ、死んだ。簡単じゃないじゃない！
ねえ、社長にお土産何あげる？お菓子とか？
でも社長甘いもの好きじゃないじゃない。うーん、お酒も好きじゃないし。何あげよっか？
いやでも社長自身が好きじゃなくても、社長の奥さんとかお子さんとかが食べるんじゃない？別に社長のお土産買うのにそんなに悩む必要ないじゃん。お菓子にしよう？
ねえ、私がこの前紹介したあの人、どうだった？すごくいい男でしょ？
「すごくいい男でしょ」じゃないよ！あの人独身じゃないじゃない！あんた頭おかしいんじゃない？
ということで、今日はここまでです！
じゃあな！みんな！
「じゃあな！みんな！」じゃないでしょ。
それでは皆さま、また次回お会いしましょう。
INCREDIBLE that you're giving us all that for free! Thank you so much.
Amazing Kaname, thank you for even giving us this transcript.
Hope your channel gets even more attention!
Can i ask you? I have group on FB witch learn japanese for arabian people.. May i take Small clips from your videos... Or is it okay for me to use your explanation to write lessons in the group... Please respond.
THANK YOU for this! I usually pause to watch the onscreen transcript, but this is helpful too because RUclips shows translations of your comment text, and that sometimes helps me get the jokes.

I didn’t understand that one.
Thank you again!! ArigatougoZAImasu!!
Kaname could seriously write a top tier soap opera. And I would watch it.
He's just biting his time here with us before he gets to sign a Netflix contract
I want to know what happened after the guy got caught by his wife!
Naturally, he'd perform all of the parts himself.
@@someguy9175 *biding his time
@@IdoN_Tlikethis😂 Kaname: The Human Bean
Came for the nihongo lesson, stayed for the drama
Kaname-sensei is so good at these 'rough-spoken' scenarios, I have a feeling he was a probably a delinquent when he was a teenager.
オイコラ！
@@giuseppeagresta1425おいこっらあああ indeed 🙏
@@giuseppeagresta1425 Remember the sound must come from the throat and you neeeed to sound rough XD
Those dialogues are goddamn good lol
seriously he should be a writer
@@retrofilmwork Maybe he already is :o
Forget Japanese learners-Kaname's videos should be mandatory viewing for all aspiring screenwriters!
One of the uses for じゃない/じゃん sounds like it could sub out for "if it isn't."

I had the same thought. "Brah, not another mug."
Same thought. Easier to remember that way.
As always, 5 minutes in and your scenarios are completely over the top, but totally relatable at the same time. すごくい
3:27
he's really stopping himself from laughing
Your content is always so dedicated to the nuances in expressions and vocabulary. Truly one of the best language channels out there.
Glad to see you getting the deserving praise. The dialogues are so good! Hearing Kaname curse in English is always so hilarious to me for some reason too
Hearing any foreigner swear is so great, my fave is Indians, they put that extra "breath" into it that gets me every time 😂
@@1Saburo I used to work with an Indian guy who actually studied proper English swearing... and he was a PRO. Prided himself on it too. 🤣
Aggressive Japanese is seriously like a whole other language. I’m intermediate Japanese and cannot understand anything without the subtitles.
Thank you so much! Your lessons are so invaluable! I don't think even most paid courses cover these topics in this much detail. It's literally the closest I've gotten to 1:1 personal tutor!
I know right. Hes a beast! It really is like having a personal tutor. Chefs kiss
日本に住んでいたら自然にできると勝手に思っちゃうけど、動画を見て実はそうでもないと気づきました。
完璧に理解できて毎日問題なく使っていても、改めて全てとりまとめて人に教えるのは容易なものではありません。
なのでかなめ先生のことは素晴らしいと思います。次の動画も期待しております。
Kaname was an unexpected delight - I thought he would just be another handsome teacher, but he turned out to be so much more. ✨
Totemo hansamu and very fit. He must run a lot.
@@HenriHowardEarlofSurreyHe takes care of himself. 😌
Love your videos! The attention to put Furigana everywhere, teaching intonation, speaking in a clear manner and not too fast. Will end up watching all of your videos!
1:10 「おっぱいようございます」は単なる下ネタのダジャレなだけでなく、「よう」が「良く」の意味に取れるところが面白い。「ごきげんよう」の「よう」と同じ。
2:55 記憶に残すためには体を張って赤ちゃん言葉だって使う教育者の鑑。
4:30 日本語って英語みたいにトーンで意味がすぐ変わりまくらないと思ってたけど、少なくとも「ない」のトーンは言われてみると色んなパターンがある。accented moraとか意識しながら覚えるの大変そう。
Kaname going crazy with some of these skits....
i'm not learning Japanese. i'm mostly watching because i enjoy the fun skits :) . and actually, i really love the serious and dramatic skits, too. (i also like seeing how Japanese has structures so different than English, but that's a secondary enjoyment for me!)
かなめさんの作った物語を何時間でも聞けるわ😭😂
완전 도움이 돼요. 표현이 쓰일 수 있는 다양한 상황을 실감나게 연기를 해주시니까 더 재밌는 거 같아요.
Recently encountered じゃないじゃない in a novel, got confused, should have known they both sound different from each other. It makes so much sense when it is spoken and listened rather than reading it in writing
普通に使ってるけどよく考えたら使い方めちゃくちゃ難しいな笑
説明できるのすごい
I love how well made are your scripts, isnt like those robotic phrases haha
I feel kinda dumb fr not realizing じゃん was short fr じゃない, but more surprised that no one bothered to mention it in other videos mentioning that grammar point.
かなめ先生、ありがとうございましたね〜！
〜じゃないじゃない などの同じ言葉や似たような言葉が続くシチュエーションは日本人であってもこんがらがる場合があるので外国人なら尚更でしょうね､､
I seriously like this guy. I was never so entertained while learning Japanese.
Now hold up! I did not give you permission to have me on the edge of my seat like that for the "Sato Mai" example. I was clutching my pearls, straight gagged, flabbergasted, too stunned to speak! I felt like I had walked in on something; it was that convincing lol I know you write stellar stories
Another wonderfull lesson from Kaname Sensei! Thank you very much!
I wanted to know if you have any plans on making a video about させる? Even though i already know about it, watching your videos always teaches me something new about japanese forms and expressions!
Once again, thank you very much for your awesome videos!
"...ja nai/...ja nai?" can easily be remembered as "it is not (the case) that.../is it not the case that...?"
I'm completely in love with your content, please keep on making this hard journey even funnier and easier.
本当にありがとう、かなめ先生。今ではこのトピックをよく理解できるようになりました
I lived in Japan for 4 years and have taken many classes and I still gotta say these lessons are amazing! I thought I understood this concept but hearing it explained to articulately is amazing! Looking forward to more classes
度もありがとう you can express yourself so well, like an actor. Thank You
The differences in pitch and delivery are fascinating! And the dialogues are so funny 😆
ああ、私が依頼した課題じゃないか？😅
本当にありがとうございます、カナメ先生！
bro could be a screenwriter with all the dialogues he's able to whip up
Came here for learning Japanese, stayed for the drama. I want to know what happens next with Maimai
Love your videos, thank you, I watch them at least 3x and can't get enough of it. The daily conversation uses are so useful, thank you!! And yes, love your swearing too!!! lol.
it's miraculous that you explain each topic without robotic sentences, japanese has never been so clear to me! thank you so much! 🙏🏻
Kaname先生は最高の会話をして、とても面白くて現実的です。説明をしてくれてありがとうございます。メリークリスマス🎄😊
この動画いいんじゃない？
The dialogs are simply top tier to improve listening and comprehension.
That 田中さん gets around!!
I always look forward to watching your videos. I also checked your RUclips channel this morning to see if any new videos have been uploaded. Honestly, I have benefited a lot from your videos.
(May the Creator(God/ ALLAH) reward you well, I pray!)
He's a very good teacher.
日本人でが、英語学習の勉強にもなるし、日本語の勉強にもなっています。
ありがとうございました。
and just when I came to terms with the fact that Japanese is really hard, Kaname teaches me that it's even harder than really hard.
要という神様を本当にありがとうございます！
相変わらず、かなめさんのツアーレッスンは最高です
Wow! So much nuance! I will probably have to watch this several more times to really get all the different uses
That dialogue about adultery was pure comedy gold, I need more things like this in my japanese practice😂
I got so invested in the maimai story i forgot im supposed to be learning the language
One of my favorite classes! I love this channel!
An equivalent example besides "It isn't" as a definitive negative in English would be "Isn't it-?"
Or maybe "Aren't you-?"
Only been learning for a couple of months but I understood the 悪かったでちゅ。ごめんなちゃい immediately. Hilarious 😂
Thank you so much for this! I haven't had じゃない properly explained to me. Knew the jist of all the uses but not about the different pitch for each type. Kaname-sensei is SO AWESOME! And also the dialogue is SO natural. Perfect for shadowing to get used to colloquial Japanese. Once again, thank you so much, Kaname-sensei!!!
Haha I love your dialogues in Japanese, they're so funny and entertaining.
アニメじゃない, アニメじゃない, 本当の事さ~!
My sincere thanks for going into such detail. Textbooks never touch this stuff.
I'm beginner and a friend who is fluent in Japanese indicated you. Thanks for post tips like this, this is usefull for beginners like me.
my favourite japanese stand up comic:) Kaname-sensei
Learning like a first grade which is good since your approach is less mechanical. Truly appreciated.

That downward inflection of surprise or disappointment is similar to something in English. You say something like, "Well, if it isn't the man himself^😁" or you say "Well..😡 if it isnt the scumbag himself\.."
I’m not sure how much I’m learning but I really enjoy your ridiculously specific story examples 🤣
These are really good. Love the dialogue.
Haha, i love the scenarios that come up here. Makes fun and interesting to listen. Great for listening practice
I just got back from a trip to Korea and Japan. these videos really helped me :)
Another day, another thing Finnish and Japanese people agree upon: if someone surprises you with a nice gift, you respond with disbelief and essentially saying "no, it isn't!" in a falling pitch 🤝
i felt the teachers gaze through your example
I love the dialogue driven examples, gives me plenty of mirroring practice!
Holy shit. His lines definitely sound like a j-drama. But THIS one has major Yakuza/Like a Dragon 「龍が如く」game dialogue vibes. 😂 amazing
Ah, so useful. I've been studying for a couple years now and I always felt like I didn't understand janai.
1:13 - "Oppai" I understood that.
What an absolutely incredible video. Somehow かなめ先生just keeps getting better!
Been studying for a bit now and I’m determined to know more by next year. Thank you Kaname-San !
I really appreciate Kaname's use of discursive tone in his explanations. On a related note, Ninja Warrior's English dub is superb; it captures the discursive tone, the sentiment, of the performance - at least, /I\ think so.
one of the best japanese teachers on youtube
Wow... That's intense. Thanks for sharing!
This channel fantastic, only the sub plots he uses when explaining always draw me in, I gotta know how they end!
You know, I had a lot of trouble making sense of the actual negative question (with emphasis on な)
I kept thinking of the previous example, and it just sounded weird to me.
Eventually, I just replaced トイレ with ペン in my head and immediately thought of a guy picking up what seems to be a pen and being confused because it doesn't write :D Suddenly this made a whole lot more sense to me.
I've definitely heard all of these before and they feel pretty intuitive, that one particular example aside.
It’s so nice to see I’ve been using janai appropriately and understood it without any real study on how the nuance of its use works before.
That was really fun to learn! Thank you!!
You are such an amazing teacher.
I stumbled on your channel by mere chance, and I have loved it. Your explanations are thorough and clear.
I very much appreciate your work.
ありがとうございます
I really wish someone would take the time to compile all these sample sentences into Anki decks. Its so hard to find high quality REAL AUTHENTIC decks.
This is what all of us should be modeling from. It is so high class.
The “じゃない” question intonation is one I actually picked up subconsciously, super intuitive if you ask me. (Can’t say the same for most other parts of the language, lol.)
That cleared up some confusion I had about じゃない. The textbooks only ever taught me the negative form and didn't explain the expectations based meaning. Caused a lot of misinterpretations for me. I think I understand it a lot better now. Ty Kaname!
I really like your videos. Since I'm at a very basic starting level I like to use the videos for listening practice. Thank you 🙏🏻🌞
Those dialogues are so brilliant haha
とても助かりました！全部は本の中でよく学べない表現です、ありがとうございます！
You don’t need は in that sentence
いつもありがとうございます

Could I suggest that you look at using some light diffusers or something similar to reduce the glare from your lighting off of your glasses? Your setup is great but I think the glare was very noticeable for this video

You just keep getting better, and more hilarious.
1:55 this poor guy just getting mocked and bullied lol 😂
よいお年をです先生
In my head, at least i always translated じゃない as something like "isn't it?" Or "it's not" Due to じゃない" being a negative question or answer based on context. It almost shouldn't be considered the same word when used in different contexts. I suppose the easiest example would be "かみ" hair/paper/god not the same things but uses the same kana (in aware kanji exist in this case, but if じゃない had kanji it would be the same thing)
