  • Thanks

  • I remember it as Columbus being the capital of Ohio :) I love your teaching! :D

  • more like ohio

    

  • good morning ... oh hi, you (giberish)

  • Very helpful channel :X

  • yummy.

  • Osaka lady? LOL! thnx.

  • HOW did she know I was getting nervous when she said good morning to me!

  • @nedwarp

    he knows us all Run

  • are ayou sure? in japanise hunto ni?

  • ohio

  • the only portion i dont like is that she doesn't really fully explain some of the seperate words why there in the order

    example:ohayou basically is saying it already, u dont need to say gozaimasu, gozaimasu is only for when u want to be more polite after saying hello, but its not needed and she doesn't point that out at all

  • @yingyangkindofgirl12

    actually, she mentions that you can say only ''ohayou'' for casual conversation [0:16]. So for formal conversation you add ''gozaimasu''.

  • @elsaltamonte i know , but she never actually says what gozaimasu means

  • @yingyangkindofgirl12 gozaimasu has a lot of meanings, it depends on what u mean...so it-ll b hard to explain in 1 lesson

  • 先生、

    It will be much appreciated if you can a make a video of how to pronounce the word "Hya" ひゃ、”Hyu” ひゅ and Hyo ひょ

    As a 外人, この 言葉を 難しいです、いいにくい!おねがいします。

  • lmao I love her examples when she's asking us to speak :)

  • she kinda looked pissed at the end. Gozaimas doesn't exist in japan! >.<

    Gozaimasu does :3

  • God damn, you're a sexy beast.

  • Thankyou very much i needed the pronounciation

  • She's purdy

  • seriously she very charming !!!

  • Wait wait.. is rainbowrants argueing with a native japanese how to speak japanese? Sounds stupid to me.. lol

  • llllllla good

    nannananna

  • and to add. that "consonent is followed by a vowel" is not true at all. how would you explain N? "nan desu ka" Written Japanese doesn't have spaces so you can't use that excuse, even if you wanted to. koNNichiwa.

  • thanks alot! ive listened to all ur videos and it really helps!

  • if every consonant is followed by a vowel how come you can have "shi"?

  • @supersayin201 "shi" is actually in the "si" spot, but japanese do not have "si" it is instead "Shi"

  • arigatou gozaimasu :)

  • ラクチンラナ キラツチニモチトナ

  • Umm Rick.. she's native born Japanese. Who would you rather listen to? An American that lived in Japanese for a few months, or someone born and raised there?

  • @infidelguy . I have never heard a native say that the U is pronoucned. Its whispered. Thats a fact. Must be her osaka dialiect.

  • @rainbowrants I think she is just stressing the fact that you don't drop it off completely, you whisper it. It has to be there.

    She isn't saying "gozaimaSU" she is pronouncing it as if the "u" was not there, but she is saying it is there.

  • I didn't say anything~~

    Ohoho~

    Such a rebel.

    Nanchatte~ xD

  • I'm going with the dude below.

  • funny, my japaneese teacher said the u is only silent, she lived in japan recently... soooo i'm listenin ti her

  • @stab456

    It's not silent it's soft....barely there but there.

  • @trondyne

    iie, chigaimasu

  • @stab456 I've heard a bunch of different perspectives on that as well.

  • meh.

  • Ohayou Gozaimasu

  • It isn't correct to say the 'U' is silent. In Japanese, writing the double 'O' sound in Hiragana is an exception which is written with the phonetics 'OU'. Thus, that's how it's written in Romaji. So the 'U' means you hold the 'O' sound for 2 beats instead of 1.

  • i remember ohayou by remembering it sounds like ''Oh hi you :D''

  • i think it sounds like oh-Hey-you!

  • O-H-I-O!!!!

  • thank u for the video, i would say it in Japanese but i dont know how to, but thanks any way

  • i got a question

    is the u on gozaimasu like really quiet cause sometimes i dont hear her say it, and same with desu.... plz explain anyone...

  • yea. the U is always silent.

    like in words that has Masu or in Desu.

  • thank you :D

  • well, not really ALWAYS.. but ur right.

  • it's like gozaimass and dess, drag out the s sort of. a bit like how tsu is pronounced, more like tst.

  • thanks so much i was really wondering about that! :DDD

    thank you

  • yes the u is silent

  • arigatou gozaimasu yuu-sensei!

  • thank you so much for the lesson!

  • Domo arigato Yuu-san!

  • ohayou gozaimasu

  • do u have classes in los angeles???

  • Arigato Gozaimasu!

  • Is the U always silent?

  • yes

  • You can say with the U, but usually they dropped it

  • Thank you I was really wondering about that. They use it alot but they rarely ever pronounce it.

  • well.. i Dont understand :/

  • neighter do WE!!!!!!!!!! T.T

  • Technically it is konnichiha: こんいちは. ha is pronounced wa, so people spell it konnichiwa to prevent confusion and then students separate the wa by mystake.

  • Yeah I had the ha as in ha and not wa.

    so I messed up.

  • good suggestion, word association with ohio. What if we fuck up and say Iowa or montana? theyre all going to think we are stupid!

  • Never mind I heard wrong. I didn;t hear the soo sound.

  • Is the "u" silent or what? I thought you were supposed to pronounce it oo.

  • u most of the time is silent. some word like kurasu( class) is pronounced.

    this lady is wrong. it's ohayoo not ohayou.

    she learns it from those shitty books that do not teach it right.

  • japanese sounds of long o is spelled ou in latin letters

  • then follow it that way!

    that's latin. japanese have nothing to do with latin.

  • it doesnt have to do with latin but latin alphabet must be used, otherwise do you want everything to be written in hiragana, katakana and kanji to learn english? Some people dont want to learn japanese alphabet beause they only want to learn a little japanese for fun. would be quite troublesome to learn 52 hiragana, 52 katakana and over 2000 kanji just to make people like you stop complaning about something that its not even worth complaining about

  • I've never seen ohayoo in an anime sub or my anime dvds with english subs from japan o_o i better refrain from trying to type in romanji lol.

  • theres more to japan than amime you know

  • I know a lot about Japan and 'amime' is the tip of the iceberg.

  • paehou TANK UU I WAS JUST GONA ASC BOUT THOSE STUFF AND HOWS hi? in japanese?

  • UM CAN i asc something?im new in those stuf and ive found many alpfabets and im comfused what to study i found katakana but not shure bcoz there are two more next to that alpfabet and im comfused...pls pm me to explaneee*cryes

  • Japanese don't use an alphabet like were used too.Instead they use 2 syllabary's.Called Hiragana and Katakana.Both of the writing system's use 46 different symbols each.They also use Kanji.There are thousands and thousands of kanji symbols.Japanese used Kanji from Chinese in the 3rd to 6th century.Any more questions just ask.

  • Ohayo gozaimasu = Good morning.

    Kombanwa = Good afternoo.

    Osakini = Good evening.

    Oyasuminasai = Good night.

  • Komban wa is good evening...

    Good afternoon is Konnichi wa... so I learned it.

  • i was about to say the same thing taty

  • good so I am right xD

  • yes you are

  • it's konbanwa. do not separate it by making wa a particle.

    konnichiwa is good afternoon/ hello

  • hai, hai... wakata...

  • Oh Isaiasm2006 I think me and you are both wrong. It is actually said ohayou but since you said that U is mostly silent, at the end it sounds like oo. It is the way they teach it to american people.

  • lol.. there are rules.

    lets pretend these letters are in hiragana.

    whenever you see a "u" infront of an "o", it creates "oo".

    same rule applies to "I' infront of "e", to create "ee". example; "Bus stop" will be basutee. in hiragana it's spelled basutei but is actually basutee. eego means english and has the "i" infron of the first "e". sensee (professor) same thing.

  • And o is like oh.

  • this is so awesome

  • It sounds like OH! Hi, you!

  • Oh, I didn't know you had to say the SU at the end. I thought it was silent because it sounds that way to me. I guess you have to say it really lightly like how when people say "great", they don't really say the "T", but it's still there if you pronounce it slowly.

  • It's just "S" sound.

  • Comment removed

  • leycx: You know that there's no formal transcription of japanese characters? Get your facts straight and keep your ignorant opinion to yourself...

  • the japanese hiragana letter that is used for writing ohaiyou gozaimasu is "yo".So she is right

  • she's very gorgeous...

  • sound like "OH, HI YO!!" to me

  • thats what hi i was thinking! she said what does this sound like to you? and i said oh!hi yo. i guess ohio makes most sense.

  • THNX!

  • omg! thank you so much for doing this! you're videos are SO useful to me!^^

  • ohayou
