  • Verb+てしまう is a commonly used phrase, but many Japanese learners seem to struggle grasping the usage of it. Many of them have been taught that it is used to express regret, but the problem is that’s merely one function that this phrase has. In this video, I’m going to explain with many examples how this phrase is exactly used.

    07:26 Finish something, so it doesn't bother you
    08:44 Something bad will happen
    10:10 Something bad happened

    Being a somewhat slow Japanese learner, I understand that ~てしまう also carries the nuance of doing something spontaneously. Or something to the tune of "can't help but ~" in English.
    As an example taken out of a line from a Japanese (love?) song lyrics, "そんなことばかり考えてしまう". Its literal translation would be "I think of only those things". But I believe it also implies that the singer "can't help but thinking of those stuff". Is my understand correct, may I ask? Likewise, If someone says "... 笑ってしまいました。". Depending on the context but it is likely that it means "... can't help but burst into laughter.", as opposed to feeling sorry because one's laughter. No?
    Most of the Japanese Language textbooks targeting non-native speakers tend to focus on 2 main meanings i.e. 完了 & 後悔/残念 . Is the above method of usage an unorthodox or uncommon one among native speakers? Thanks.

    • @vonneumann6161
      @vonneumann6161 9 месяцев назад +21

      You’re absolutely correct. Your translations are better in my opinion. The overall nuance of しまう is that “it’s done and one can’t undo it”. So depending on the context, it can mean that something happens(happened) unintentionally and you can’t undo it.

    • @clevelandbrown6947
      @clevelandbrown6947 9 месяцев назад +4

      The thing is, just as words may have many meanings, when the meaning is so abstract as of (て)しまう's, there are *multiple possible* nuances to it. Both "to be completed" and "to happen unexpectedly" are equally correct meanings/nuances, but the line between them is not blurry, and in some cases such as this one, it's not that great to treat words with the mindset of "1 literal meaning 1 native nuance". I use dictionaries to make sure of the meaning of a word I'm learning, mostly online but also physical ones, and they usually have sub-indexes for this kind of mess. My point is, these nuances are separate, not layered on eachother.

    • @Amagys
      @Amagys 9 месяцев назад +1

      What you described and your translation is the other major meaning and is quite often used to express something ended up happening with the nuance is that it was somewhat out of their control, due to various elements (natural or unintentional). Your first example ばかり also carries the meaning of "always" which can mean in a larger scope "the only thing one thinks about" so "I can't help but to always think about those kinds of things" would be the full interpretation. There is also a 4th nuance which you can see in a lot in situations when it's used excessively in a teasing (sexually) manner as if things just happen to fall into place and end up being this way or it has, which you may see multiple of these meanings overlap at the same time so it acts more like a strengthener in those situations. There are times where it's still ambiguous for me too so just giving you my break down.

  • @JelloPuddingFood
    @JelloPuddingFood 9 месяцев назад +1

    This is a great video and I really like the in-depth explanations here. I've often run across grammar sites that'll be "oh, -teshimau is for doing something unintentionally or completing something". But then when you see actual usage in the real world and in Japanese games and manga, it's soooooo obvious that it's much more than what those sites explained and now finally, your video gives the whole picture. All those -teshimau articles I've read should just link to this video instead!

I'm self studying Japanese from a book and just finished a lesson on ーてしまう and one of the usages the book said was to use it to emphasize completion of actions in the past ーてしまいました and has a lot of sentence examples and exercises for this use. Glad to know that native Japanese don't acutally use it this way.

    In usual conversations, the Japanese use しちゃう, the more causual form of してしまう instead.
    道を間違えて海に着いてしまった=道(を)間違えて海に着いちゃった。I took the wrong road and ended up at the beach.
    One more thing, like he said, you should say しちゃった instead of した, if you are sorry for what you've done, but sometimes it can be a rude expression.
    For example, when you forget to do your homework, you should use the two different expressions according to the situation.
    In front of a teacher
    すいません、宿題やるのを忘れてしまいました, or 宿題やるのを忘れてしまったんですけど、、(しちゃった might sound rude, but しちゃったんですけど、、、sounds ok)。If I was a teacher and a student talked to me with 宿題忘れちゃった, I would feel like "Do you really understand you did a bad thing?".
    In front of a friend
    あ、宿題やるの忘れた(忘れちゃった is also ok. I use this more often)。

    What serendipity
    I was just the other day reflecting on how I still have a very vague understanding on the subject of this video. I mostly understood the usage where one expresses that something happened with negative consequences. But it's funny, because the incident that got me to think on it was a scene from Super Mario Bros. Wonder.
    In the game, there's a level where if you collect the Wonder Flower, it causes the enemies to start a singing march. And there's a talking flower that is commenting on the situation.
    オ... オンガクが...
    まさかうたうの?
    うたっちゃうの?
    I still didn't fully grasp the usage of 'te shimau' in this instance. If I had to guess, is it like "(now that you've collected the item that begins this event) The enemies are singing (and there's nothing you can do about it)" ? Because it doesn't feel like the talking flower would be expressing that it's a bad thing, considering the spectacle of the moment is clearly meant to be an entertaining surprise for the player.

  • @jryanp
    @jryanp 9 месяцев назад

    Great explanation. So it sounds like a similar construction to the use of UP with a verb. "Kids let's get this room all cleaned up". "Now" is implied, as well as the task being fully completed.
    Sorry for the nitpick but in the missing the plane example, around 9:45, you should use "X has happened" or just "X happened" in your explanation of the past tense of te shimau.
    Using "had happened" either implies that it did not happen (such as a hypothetical circumstance - e.g. "if I had taken that train, I would have been on time") or is used when you are projecting yourself and your listener(s) into a past timeframe in your mind, such as in telling a story (e.g. "I had just gotten off the train, and then boom! Guess who showed up? My ex!") The use of "had" sometimes foretells another situation coming into being, from that first one being true. "Back then he had done X , consequently... Y also occurred." It has to do with whether the action or condition is already over with or in a state of having commenced RELATIVE TO the timeframe in your mind you, the speaker, are inhabiting while telling us the story, if that makes sense.
    So if you got off the train at 2PM, and your ex was already there, you could say "my ex had already arrived". Otherwise you would use a different tense: " I got off the train, and lo and behold! My ex was at the south exit". "My ex had been waiting", for example, could also be used here, but only because the waiting started before you noticed them, and you wish to emphasize that aspect of it already being in progress in the past, so to speak, as you tell your story.
    My adult students had difficulty with this concept. I hope I have explained it in a way that makes sense.

    Something I've been wondering is why 誰か欲しい人いるかなと思って ends with the te form. I know you can end on te form when shortening a request (using ください) and when omitting verbs when using the casual と particle, but I've struggled to understand it in practice in sentences like this.

    • @kanamenaito

      There is unmentioned sentence there. 「誰か欲しい人いるかなと思って捨てなかった (I thought some people might want it so I didn't throw them away)」. Since this unmentioned part was obvious in the context, so he didn't mention it.

    So for me I am a little confused between てしまう and ておく. Do both of them represent getting something over with? What is the nuance?

    I found Cure Dolly's comparison to the regional/colloquial use of "done" useful. As in, "I've done spilled the milk", or "I've done cleaned up that mess". It has similar nuances, although I don't think it translates out of past tense very well.
