Thanks for taking use along with you. Your english is very good and will improve with practice. It was challenging for me to learn Japanese when I lived and worked in Tokyo for two years many years ago. I'm still so very grateful for the kindness and patience afforded me as I'm certain I made a fool of myself a few times but was never made to feel embarrassed. I have been trying to relearn the language presently.
I’m from Oregon in the USA and I’ve been working on my Japanese for some time. I can say without a shadow of a doubt that you may not realize it, but your English is good enough to get around here. Definitely good enough that people would understand all of your questions and statements. Keep up the great work!!! 🤩🤙
Your videos always make me smile. I'm British and a native English speaker so I'd be happy to help you with English and you can help me learn Japanese?
The hardest part of any language is constructing sentences, not just repeating phrases. Yukachan did a great job here. Also, it looks like the temperature in Asakusa at the moment is around 98 degrees Fahrenheit/36 degrees Celsius (but feels more like 100 F/38 C) 😓 I had no idea Tokyo could get so hot.
It is much worse than that, and even when it says a temperature of 40 or so, the problem is the humidity. It seems like it wouldnt make much of a difference for her to try to get to shade, it does though. Even still, you cant escape the humidity no matter what so it gets deeply, deeply unpleasant.
This is actually an excellent way to practice a foreign language, even times when you just name things like "bridge", "fish", etc; it can definitely help you get used to thinking and speaking in your target language. Well done!
You did a fabulous job. I understood everything you said without having to read the subtitles. I was inspired (by you) to start learning Japanese. It’s hard but I will keep at it. Best wishes to you.
I'm teaching 6th grade students English in Obihiro. I would like to show them this to inspire them. It's great that you didn't stop! And when you didn't know the words, you made funny noises!
I agree, you said your English is junior high school level but still you kept it up through out the whole video and it was always clear what you were talking about. Perfect or not, you set a goal for yourself and you did it just to improve, then uploaded it too! I think a lot of students can learn from your positive attitude.
Her "funny noises" are meant to replace those English words that she couldn't utter in each of those sentences. Which only shows how determine she is to communicate with English speakers like us. She deserves 👏 from all of us, English speakers here on yt comment section. 👏 👏 👏. And I hope Yuka won't be tired of learning English language.
I am a 78 year old man who has decided to learn Japanese. Your English is a lot better than my Japanese. I am sure you will make rapid progress. It is so important to practice speaking even if you make mistakes. I wish you good luck
Yuka, your english is getting better and it is good that you are trying. My late wife didn’t know how to speak, which she went to school for ESL ( English as a second language) course. It took time and patience but if she was here today and hear her speak you wouldn’t know that she didn’t know english. Yuka, keep practicing 🙏
Ganbatte Yuka-chan! I like how you try hard to use English all the way in the video. Practice makes perfect. You will get better and better by practicing more 😊In fact you did easily supplement your expression through your gestures as well. You did a great job I hope to see more of your English videos in the future 😊 and can at the same time teach us some Japanese words
@@yutin_jp I really wish more Japanese people would move abroad. It is so rare to see a Japanese community abroad. Its very sad. On the other hand, everywhere I travel in the world, I see Korean, Chinese, American, European communities in places like Africa, South America, Australia, Russia, and even parts of the middle east like Mumbai and Dubai. The only places I have seen large Japanese settlements is in Hawaii, and California. Us Japanese people(My mom is Japanese and my Father is American and I was raised in Tokyo until I was 7) need to venture out more and settle in other areas too! I think it is great you are learning English. It really comes in handy to speak fluid English in Japan, and will benefit you in many ways! Keep up the great work!
@@yutin_jp. if you love Japan it’s much better for you to stay there and not move to another country. Other countries can be very uncivilized and hostile and dangerous Like America. Stay in Japan where it is safer and far more civilized.
Are you a Japanese? I really enjoyed watching this video of Ms. Yuka Chan, in which tourist spots and food are shown to educate people like myself about a little bit of Japanese culture. Her English may not be as good as a native speaker, but watching her trying her best to communicate with English speakers like myself makes me feel happy about it. She deserves 👏 from all of English speakers who watch her videos. 👏 👏 👏 to Ms.Yuka.
I like how even when she doesn't know a specific word she still manages to get across an idea, like "sun place" for "shade." I totally got it! I might even want to use that one myself. It's a clever method to get around not simply memorizing everything. Good job!
When I was in Japan as a university student, I went to Asakusa with my friends. Some random Japanese university students showed up and offered us to show around if we want. They wanted to practice English with us. We had a great time together and it was such a cool experience to be able to hang out with people who I just met with. This video reminded me of that day. 😊
This is how I try to learn languages everyday; just describe everything around me and talk about what I'm doing. I tend to practice while playing video games, speak Tagalog with my Filipino father, and Spanish at my work. Keep up the practice and soon, you'll be able to articulate sentences very fluently. You've already got a good foundation for practicing English! Good luck! 頑張ってね！
I actually didn't know that you could speak English this well. I thought you did a great job and it's easily good enough to have a full conversation. I love your personality very cheerful and pleasant, not to mention extremely cute. Love your videos. Thanks for sharing ❤
What a delightful person! Communication is the goal, and Yuka-chan completely crushed it! I love to hear how proud she is to be Japanese! She gently introduced us to several words in her language, which allows us a peek into her culture! Can’t wait to go and see Japan for myself! Arigato, Yuka-chan!
I love learning Japanese because I know the differences and it’s funny seeing it from the other side of the coin. “ I enjoy talking to you, you” because they don’t refer to people directly normally. They’ll say there name, or the amount of people they’re talking to but since the internet is a lot of people she realized she could call us “you.” So cute I love the process of learning languages!
Big thumbs up to your translator in the subtitles as well, they do a good job of translating not only what you are saying but also trying to say in a very natural way.
Yuka the way you struggle to speak English is so cute. And your voice in English is like an angel. You have such a pretty voice and overall your English speaking is super cute and I hope to see it again on the next video.
I thought you did fabulous! Your English was very understandable, and most importantly you kept working at it! Most Americans cannot speak a second language at all, and they find learning Japanese particularly difficult. For you to be as good as you are at speaking English is a big achievement. I am sure you will get better with time and practice!
Ngl, most americans find learning about anything outside their country, difficult. 😂 I've met a few who thought America was the only country in the world. By the time i was 8, my year group in school could hold simple conversations in 3 different languages in south africa.
@@shintenkai1648why would americans need to learn a second language ? You aren't pressuring asians to learn a second language. 99% of japanese cannot even say 1 sentence in english or another language yet you don't mock them. It smells like hypocrisy 😂😂. I speak 5 languages. Nobody cares that as long as I speak fluent english. English is the most spoken language on earth with over 1.4 bill people. Learning a second language besides english is a personal choice 😂 yet you mock people for that. I doubt you "met" an american who thought US is the only country. Seems like someone is trying to make up a story and trying to add details to make it sound a lil bit more believable than it actually is 😂. As I said if you gonna mock americans for not learning a second language keep the same energy to asians 😂
@@NickN56 hlalaphansi umlungu, you are so full of insinuations and assumptions, shows extremely well. Nothing in my statement is false or mocking anybody, it's stating a fact. That you personally find offensive on behalf of Americans. I literally just educated an american on how and why England is not a city in Canada, yesterday, if this is not a standard across the board in USA, why do I find myself teaching age 8-10 school level general knowledge countless times on a daily basis? Please go cope some more.
you did so well ! your persistence is so inspiring. i am learning japanese and my progress is a little slow since i am a native english and afrikaans speaker. you inspired me to keep trying even when im uncertain of certain words. i enjoyed this so much :-) well done
I live in Brazil and here we have the biggest Japanese community outside of Japan. I want to congratulate Yuka-Chan for your english which is way better than my Japanese, it's impressive!
"no-sun place" - this kind of attempt and attitude is so important for learners when they get stuck not knowing a word (in this case, "shade")! I always remind them you can probably use simpler words to describe what you want, and hand motions help too. Good job making yourself try this and sharing it to inspire others!
Wow, Yuka! I had no idea that you speak English so well. Please don't be shy to continue. I hope to see more videos from you speaking English. And many of your rickshaw riders will really appreciate it. Also, you look very beautiful today. The decorations on your hair are very pretty.❤
This is like me trying to speak only Japanese for a day! So relatable and very cute. 😊 It takes a lot of courage to do a video like this! I got to visit Asakusa and Senso-ji last summer. I love that area.
This is awesome Yuka. What methods are you using to learn English? Your pronunciation of the words you do know is actually very good! Very clear and quite a mild/neutral accent for a native UK 🇬🇧 English speaker like me. Well done!!! 😃
@jash2622 It really is. That's exactly what I was going to say, except that I'm not a native speaker, just a lover of the language. I think, you will benefit a lot from a little conversational practice. Surely you have some native English speakers as customers. Make them an offer: free rickshaw ride for English conversation.😉😊
Thank you Yuka chan. You have a strong base to quickly learn English fluently. I think you just need people to speak with on a daily basis, for a couple of hours at least. Online gaming had me go from bad English speaking to fluent really fast, it was long ago but i am so thankful for that, i rarely meet anyone speaking and understanding English as well as i do in my native country. Gambatte and look forward to next English speaking video!
Great job and great video! Loved it. Very entertaining too. Very brave of you to speak English the whole video. I learned a couple of Japanese words too. ❤
That was a fine effort in trying to do the whole video in English, and took a fair amount of courage and determination. And practice only brings improvement. Keep going!
The way you form sentences, explain things around you, reminds me so much of my ex-Japanese girlfriend. She was always so bright and happy to explain everything in her funny way just like you ❣️ We even went to Asakusa and ate macha crepe, prayed and stuff. Best moments of life. This video makes me very warm.
Your plaited hair is beautifully decorated!💖 And your English is good enough to get what you need in America! Well done! Keep up the good work! Ganbatte 三つ編みの髪が美しく飾られていますね！ そしてあなたの英語はアメリカで必要なものを手に入れるのに十分です! よくやった！ これからも頑張ってください！頑張って💖
I’m from America, and I am very interested in Japanese culture and Japan itself because it’s absolutely beautiful. I was recently in Japan and actually visited Senso-Ji just a few days before this video was made. Thought that was kinda cool. Also your English is actually not that bad! It’s understandable to the native english speaker. I’m also learning Japanese and I’m about on the same level 😅
Awesome! Having an accent is perfectly ok as long as it's comprehensible. Fluency will come with practice. One thing that really helped me is watching English/American shows with subtitles. Best way to learn it is to immerse yourself in the culture :D
本当に頑張ったね！ I know how you feel; when I first moved to Japan, trying to speak Japanese for the whole day with locals was difficult and daunting. You did a great job. Cheers!
You’re so charming it’s practically enchanting! I struggled learning Russian and Hindi, I think if I was able to keep such a positive disposition like you I would have learned much faster.
Wow I really like this English challenge 😊❤. Its so cute your voice sounds different when speaking english. Hope you can speak more english on your future vlogs Ms. Yuka Chan! ❤️❤️
Speaking in another language like English is really hard at the beginning, and You plucked up the courage to speak in English! That's great! "Where there is a will, there is a way" Sooner or later you will become fluent in English. It's inspiring, useful and helpful. Thank you!
Well done, Yuka! Very few beginners try to speak in public, especially on camera. But despite that, you have encouraged yourself to give it a try. Well done brave Japanese lady! Arigato gosaimas🎉❤
Yuka Chan Konnichiwa! Thank you for the video! I worked with a Japanese company here in the States and they offered a Japanese language school. The school was only supposed to go for one month, but we liked learning so much the school lasted for 8-1/2 months! Japanese language is not easy for me because the order of the words was different. Also, I learned that Japanese have 35 different ways to count, and there are three types of lettering systems like hiragana, katakana, and kanji. So, it was fun to learn Nihongo, but very difficult for me to remember how to speak properly. I think you have done very well with your English language! I see that even when you don’t know the word, you still try, and give the Japanese word like uchiwa. We say “fan” for uchiwa. But, the word “fan” also has a double meaning… it is short form for “fanatic”, but we also call enthusiastic people “fan” as well. This is what makes English so difficult, especially for someone who is trying to learn. Arigatou!
え？Yuka-ちゃんの英語がすごい! I used to speak Japanese, but my friend moved back to Japan in 1993. I have no one to practice with. Your English is great! Thank you for the tour! ありがとうございます！
Omg it would be so much fun to hang out with her for a day and struggle with Japanese and English together 😂💗😂 You did great! I'm always struggling with Japanese so this is a great way to practice!
Acho você muito simpática e uma japonesa linda. Por favor, continue a nos fazer vídeos aí do Japão, e assim viajamos com o nosso olhar pelos teus vídeos!
Whaaa 😱, just stumbled over your RUclips Channel and had to suscribe instantly, as I only knew you from the rickshaw videos, and your personality seemed so sparkly and wholesome, so happy to have found you 🤭 And no worries about your englisch skills. I'm german, and although we were taught german since 3th class in school, I still sucked at it when I left in 10th grade 😅 I only got better afterwards, when I started watching many RUclips videos and movies in english and having some foreign online friends. With the RUclips videos and movies I also had to use german subtitles for a long time, and they gave me literal headaches for a while haha..guess my brain had to make some new connections or something. But then I naturally got better and better without really noticing at first because it happened so organically. Sure I still have to google some words sometimes or how to spell something correctly, but I'm able to speak fluent english with my foreign friends now and I love it. So, if you want to improve I'd say it's a good idea to gently integrade some english in parts of your life you enjoy and do for fun. I'm hoping to be able to do the same with Japanese one day, as I love the language and culture and would love to visit one day 🤗
You can get far with what you already know. Short and simple says a lot. I agree with one of the other comments, your English is better than what I know of Japanese. Keep up the good work you're making progress, don't be sad.
You speak english well. I can understand you and that is what matters. This gave me confidence in my learning a language. I would love to watch more videos like this
I love your english challenges, so wholesome and sweet. IT inspires me to do the same in Korean. I will try one day. Thank you! 🙏 As a Native English speaker from Canada, you are doing amazing and speak very well!
You did a great job Yuki-chan. 😊 I understood you even without subtitles in the first half of the video. Good luck with your English studies. Ganbatte ne!
Miss Yuka is sooooo adorable. Her natural unadulterated character taps my heart, walks gently in and takes up residence for as long as she wants. The way she refers to praying with her single hand back & forth is giggling inducing.
I like this video! I’m an American and it’s always nice to see Japanese people speaking English. Practice practice that’s the way! At least I tell myself that learning Japanese! それを維持する！よくやった
There's learning a language which many people can do. Then there is actually communicating which is much harder. Your English is coming along fine. But you are a natural communicator which is more of a gift. And you have it.
Thanks for taking use along with you. Your english is very good and will improve with practice. It was challenging for me to learn Japanese when I lived and worked in Tokyo for two years many years ago. I'm still so very grateful for the kindness and patience afforded me as I'm certain I made a fool of myself a few times but was never made to feel embarrassed. I have been trying to relearn the language presently.

This is awesome Yuka. What methods are you using to learn English? Your pronunciation of the words you do know is actually very good! Very clear and quite a mild/neutral accent for a native UK 🇬🇧 English speaker like me. Well done!!! 😃
@jash2622 It really is. That's exactly what I was going to say, except that I'm not a native speaker, just a lover of the language. I think, you will benefit a lot from a little conversational practice. Surely you have some native English speakers as customers. Make them an offer: free rickshaw ride for English conversation.😉😊
@@michaeldauer the ride value far exceeds a conversation - conversation should be free not the hard work of pulling rickshaw
Do make life more happy!
Yuka-chan speaking english is so adorable ☺️ Good job Yuka-chan!
Yeah it is very cute! 😊
Thank you Yuka chan. You have a strong base to quickly learn English fluently. I think you just need people to speak with on a daily basis, for a couple of hours at least. Online gaming had me go from bad English speaking to fluent really fast, it was long ago but i am so thankful for that, i rarely meet anyone speaking and understanding English as well as i do in my native country.
Gambatte and look forward to next English speaking video!
Great job and great video! Loved it. Very entertaining too.
Very brave of you to speak English the whole video. I learned a couple of Japanese words too. ❤
Cutest video ever. It made me so very happy! You did an amazing job with your English. Thank you for your bright happy smile.
As a native speaker of english, you did great! especially with how difficult our language is.
The smile of this beautiful lady brightens up the entire universe!
日本語に切り替えずにビデオ全体で英語を話すことに挑戦したのはとてもクールでした。 非常に印象的。 私は今日本語を勉強中ですが、同じことを日本語ではできませんでした。
Confident and outgoing Japanese people are such a delight. They seem to honestly enjoy everything
Did better than me studying Japanese for 10 years 😂😂😂

頑張って伝えようとしてるところが可愛くてしかたがないです😊✨素敵です！私も英語勉強中なので一緒に頑張りましょう！
英語上手
Your English is way better than what I could do in Japanese, and I've been studying Japanese for a while
That was a fine effort in trying to do the whole video in English, and took a fair amount of courage and determination. And practice only brings improvement. Keep going!
Thank you for trying to speak English ! I had fun watching 🥰
Yuka chanの英語は楽しかったです！ありがとうございました ♥
“Sun cut” was the best part
Sun cut! 🫡
thats how I will call the shade now. but always with the hand motion
Great effort Yuka-chan 👍🏼. Your English will get better. Thank you for sharing such a lovely video.
The way you form sentences, explain things around you, reminds me so much of my ex-Japanese girlfriend. She was always so bright and happy to explain everything in her funny way just like you ❣️
We even went to Asakusa and ate macha crepe, prayed and stuff. Best moments of life. This video makes me very warm.
This makes it sound like she's not japanese anymore, not that she's not your girlfriend lol
Your plaited hair is beautifully decorated!💖
And your English is good enough to get what you need in America! Well done! Keep up the good work! Ganbatte
三つ編みの髪が美しく飾られていますね！
そしてあなたの英語はアメリカで必要なものを手に入れるのに十分です! よくやった！ これからも頑張ってください！頑張って💖
I’m from America, and I am very interested in Japanese culture and Japan itself because it’s absolutely beautiful. I was recently in Japan and actually visited Senso-Ji just a few days before this video was made. Thought that was kinda cool. Also your English is actually not that bad! It’s understandable to the native english speaker. I’m also learning Japanese and I’m about on the same level 😅
Awesome! Having an accent is perfectly ok as long as it's comprehensible. Fluency will come with practice. One thing that really helped me is watching English/American shows with subtitles. Best way to learn it is to immerse yourself in the culture :D
Wow Yuka you are so adorable speaking in English.
It's fun to watch this. Yuka-chan's English is much better than my Japanese. Let's keep studying! 頑張って!
本当に素晴らしいお父さんとお母さんをお持ちですね。娘に人力車を引かせるのは勇気がいることだろう。 🤗
You are doing so great with English Yuka. Have great week from Canada 🍁
Your English is good Yuka chan. And concentrating on speaking English is difficult when it is hot 🥵. Great video. Have a nice weekend everyone. ❤❤❤
The dream girl 😢
本当に頑張ったね！ I know how you feel; when I first moved to Japan, trying to speak Japanese for the whole day with locals was difficult and daunting. You did a great job. Cheers!
You’re so charming it’s practically enchanting! I struggled learning Russian and Hindi, I think if I was able to keep such a positive disposition like you I would have learned much faster.
Wow I really like this English challenge 😊❤. Its so cute your voice sounds different when speaking english. Hope you can speak more english on your future vlogs Ms. Yuka Chan! ❤️❤️
Muito engraçado e fofo a jeito que a yuka-chan fala em inglês e gesticula sobre o templo 💕🤣
Can yuka-Chan be any cuter?
Yuka: (speaks English)
Me: 😵 😂 👏
Speaking in another language like English is really hard at the beginning, and You plucked up the courage to speak in English!
That's great!
"Where there is a will, there is a way"
Sooner or later you will become fluent in English.
It's inspiring, useful and helpful.
Thank you!
Wow. I wish I had the confidence to talk a foreign language on RUclips. Well done!! I'm impressed with your English and your self-confidence.
Es increible lo adorable que es Yuka😍
Well done, Yuka! Very few beginners try to speak in public, especially on camera. But despite that, you have encouraged yourself to give it a try. Well done brave Japanese lady! Arigato gosaimas🎉❤
It's very brave of you to speak english on a youtube video, thank you for trying to communicate with your international fans😊
Yess!
I saw one of your videos by accident and I am glad I did. Love the way you say “Mission Conplete!”
私、去年から日本語を勉強してるから、ゆかちゃんの英語を聞くのはとても楽しいと思うよ！✨✨
英語だけの動画を作るのが素敵です。僕は日本語を勉強していて聴解練習のためにゆかさんの動画を見ます。頑張ってください。
Seu English e muito bom e a paisagem que seus vídeos exibe são ótimos.
Yuka Chan Konnichiwa! Thank you for the video! I worked with a Japanese company here in the States and they offered a Japanese language school. The school was only supposed to go for one month, but we liked learning so much the school lasted for 8-1/2 months! Japanese language is not easy for me because the order of the words was different. Also, I learned that Japanese have 35 different ways to count, and there are three types of lettering systems like hiragana, katakana, and kanji. So, it was fun to learn Nihongo, but very difficult for me to remember how to speak properly. I think you have done very well with your English language! I see that even when you don’t know the word, you still try, and give the Japanese word like uchiwa. We say “fan” for uchiwa. But, the word “fan” also has a double meaning… it is short form for “fanatic”, but we also call enthusiastic people “fan” as well. This is what makes English so difficult, especially for someone who is trying to learn. Arigatou!
Your pronunciation and inflection is spot on.
え？Yuka-ちゃんの英語がすごい! I used to speak Japanese, but my friend moved back to Japan in 1993. I have no one to practice with. Your English is great! Thank you for the tour! ありがとうございます！
Omg it would be so much fun to hang out with her for a day and struggle with Japanese and English together 😂💗😂 You did great! I'm always struggling with Japanese so this is a great way to practice!
The beauty, kindness and nobility in your personality are beyond lovable.
Acho você muito simpática e uma japonesa linda. Por favor, continue a nos fazer vídeos aí do Japão, e assim viajamos com o nosso olhar pelos teus vídeos!
Whaaa 😱, just stumbled over your RUclips Channel and had to suscribe instantly, as I only knew you from the rickshaw videos, and your personality seemed so sparkly and wholesome, so happy to have found you 🤭
And no worries about your englisch skills.
I'm german, and although we were taught german since 3th class in school, I still sucked at it when I left in 10th grade 😅
I only got better afterwards, when I started watching many RUclips videos and movies in english and having some foreign online friends.
With the RUclips videos and movies I also had to use german subtitles for a long time, and they gave me literal headaches for a while haha..guess my brain had to make some new connections or something.
But then I naturally got better and better without really noticing at first because it happened so organically. Sure I still have to google some words sometimes or how to spell something correctly, but I'm able to speak fluent english with my foreign friends now and I love it.
So, if you want to improve I'd say it's a good idea to gently integrade some english in parts of your life you enjoy and do for fun.
I'm hoping to be able to do the same with Japanese one day, as I love the language and culture and would love to visit one day 🤗
You can get far with what you already know. Short and simple says a lot. I agree with one of the other comments, your English is better than what I know of Japanese. Keep up the good work you're making progress, don't be sad.
SUA ALEGRIA É CONTAGIANTE !!!! FELICIDADES E SUCESSO !!!! BEIJO DO BRASIL !!!! O BRASIL GOSTA DE VOCÊ !!!!
Censoring your mouth is hilarious 😂
Let's just say that your English is much better than my Japanese and I have been studying for three years. You did very well, thank you!
You speak english well. I can understand you and that is what matters. This gave me confidence in my learning a language. I would love to watch more videos like this
I love your english challenges, so wholesome and sweet. IT inspires me to do the same in Korean. I will try one day. Thank you! 🙏
As a Native English speaker from Canada, you are doing amazing and speak very well!
Appreciate your effort, Yuka-chan! The desire to communicate with people by learning language always worth an encouragement. 頑張ってください😄
You did a great job Yuki-chan. 😊 I understood you even without subtitles in the first half of the video. Good luck with your English studies. Ganbatte ne!
Whatever language you speak, it's so fun to see you and hear you and feel your lovely spirit!!❤
You are the happiest RUclipsr I have ever seen! I subscribed because you make me smile. I wish you the best of luck learning to speak English.
Miss Yuka is sooooo adorable. Her natural unadulterated character taps my heart, walks gently in and takes up residence for as long as she wants.
The way she refers to praying with her single hand back & forth is giggling inducing.
I like this video! I’m an American and it’s always nice to see Japanese people speaking English. Practice practice that’s the way! At least I tell myself that learning Japanese! それを維持する！よくやった
There's learning a language which many people can do. Then there is actually communicating which is much harder. Your English is coming along fine. But you are a natural communicator which is more of a gift. And you have it.
