See, I knew this already, but the little beat thing you used to explain it blew my mind. If someone had said that to me in the first place, I wouldn't have had spent so many hours listening to the same words over and over again. 😂
Excellent explanation ありがとうございます On side note: if you have hard time spelling word after writing it on paper -- spell only first letters of syllables and those long vowels Foreign word more visible that way Example: Staabakusu, spell it Stabaks
Katakana in particular has been hard for me to memorize. I guess because hiragana is used primarily with my beginner textbooks. This video has been very helpful with my struggle with katakana! ありがとうございます！
The video explains it very well and I understand this much better now. However it takes me way to long time to read certain katakana symbols, so I better practice more and see if I have improved by reading furigana. :P このどうがをありがとうごさいます
Katakana words can be more challenging than Hiragana especially if your native language is English. Take your time and keep practicing. You will eventually improve the speed of reading them. がんばってください！😊
I have a harder time figuring out what katakana words mean that I do hiragana or even kanji. カタカナ嫌い. lol I was very surprised at how many business signs you see on the streets were written in katakana.
What gets me is that I have to "japanesify" a word I already know. So, I have to enter Japanese thinking mode, but then I have to look at a word from Japanese, but it's not a Japanese word, so it's weird and I struggle to understand it. So to understand it I have to switch to thinking in English and translate English sounds --> Katakana --> Sound out to find the English word. It's better when it's a word not taken from English, but man, it's a process sometimes to figure out what a word is. Especially if it isn't something common. (I won't hesitate a second when it's a brand name. But someone trying to use a word that'll sound foreign and stylish, forget it. I'm gonna take a second to process that one.)
Ronさん、わかりますよ。It's even so in the menu at a restaurant, right? Katakana words are especially challenging for people who are English speakers. がんばって練習してくださいね！
@@YukoSensei At the restaurants I went to the waitresses didn't want anyone trying to speak japanese. There were always pictures on the menu and they wanted you to point at the food you wanted. I even saw them do this to people who were clearly Japanese. とてもおもしろかった！
I also find katakana a bit more difficult to master than hiragana. One of the great challenges for westerners, with no prior experience, is that the Japanese writing system is so completely different. Especially when it comes to learning kanji symbols!
先生，感謝你的課，此課幫助不少人，更了解兩種語的日本文。
Learning japanese feels like learning 3 or 4 lenguages. My intelectual side is happy, while my lazy one begs for mercy.
If I weren't a native speaker, I'm sure I would have felt like you do. 😂 がんばってください！
わたしも

Yamero oni chan!

You’re really great Japanese teacher!
Thanks for teaching us the use of small particles....it helps me understand more their pronunciation.
I just love the way you teach! Thank you so much!

I'm glad the little beat I added to the lesson was helpful. がんばってください。😊
I didn't know some of these things until I saw this video. Thanks a lot.

What's Mononoke?
Hello Yuko sensei! What is the difference between きっぷ and チケット?
Nothing, if u say chiketto, it means you're using at a loan word, kippu would be an original Japanese word. You can use both
あなたの教えてことの方法は絶対よくです、ゆこせんせい!

I'm vicious on your channel....
Is there anyone who is going to apply for JLPT July 2020?
I thought small letters in hiragana weren't used.
Can you read php code in 2020?
