Steal words? You realize english is a collection of borrowed words, right? And it isn't stealing, it's a loanword. Like a la mode, it's french for "In style."
well it is quite normal for a language to have loanwords. the japanese borrowed the word "orange" from the english language. But even in english it is just a loanword. they have taken it from the french language. And they took it from the spanish language (naranja). And they took it from the arabs (naranj) who took it from the persians (narang) who took it from sanskrit (naranga).
I really am not trying to sound rude or mean or snotty but Wrong Choice of words right there, using the word "steal" should have said something like why do they sound the same but saying steal makes it sound so bad, and saying "lie" and "good job japanese people" she looks a bit offended. Other wise way to go eating that snail,I would not have been able to do it.
awe!! I don't know what the shit everyone else is yapping about, but it seems like you really love ur host family and they really like you too.... tell her that youtube doesn't think she looks a day over 25 ;)
To be quite honest I think you shouldnt have been sooo rude o.o and STEAL wow dude seriously im embaressed 4 u and they use it because it is a foreign word >.<
@99knight It's like a family who receives guests in their own home. And the parents in that family will be a host parents that you can treat the same as your mother and father. It's a very good method if you want to be quick learning a different language, because you can talk like everyday with host family with their language. It's like training and learning, but very fun (if you get a very nice family) :D
@99knight Oh, of course we have to pay. It's like we have to pay for staying in the hotel, right? hehe. I don't know about every homestay program, but I think they will arrange your meal. Usually for breakfast and dinner (It's already included in program's cost). Anyway, I'm not an expert for homestay program ;p I just had once last month in Tokyo, Japan. But it was great! If you interested, maybe you can search on website. There's a bunch. I hope It help :D
@99knight Well, it's your choice. You can arrange how long you wanna stay. a week, a month, etc. Even for a day, I think. And Who doesn't miss your own family and house? of course everyone does, right? :)
the reason why there is a lot of English nouns in Japanese is because things (for example chocolate and tomatoes) are introduced to them by westeners. In asia, having English words in native language is pretty common. Unlike in China, many didn't translate it into their own language (so it sounds intelligeble to foreigners) or rename it.
just wanted to tell you ty, i really enjoy your videos their so great! entertaining, informative, and really let others see the "normal" day life in japan. :)
Yo i think i got the answer to your question dude. they use english words because the japanese nation have been influenced by the Americans when they occupied japan during the war. also times changes and people adapted to it and that japan is a major business partner to america so that people in japan would know some words in english if they needed to talk to americans idk. this is js my guess. you can do the history of it or something. but this seems the most logical why they use english words.
lol you people are all blowing this WAY OUT OF PROPORTION. She didn't seem offended at all. when I was staying in japan, my host was remarkably similar to her...and trust me, you will KNOW when she is not happy.
the other person I was staying with she didn't like, and she made it KNOWN.
If she would have been offended, I'm sure he would have known.
I don't think many of you get "sense of houmour" because you seem to take tom way to seriously.
Wow dude...you're an asshole. You can tell the woman was offended by what he said. Her attitude quickly changed after he said steal - It was embarrassing even watching it after that.
"steal" is a very strong word. your host parents seem a little bit offended by your question. At the end, the "good job, japanese people" is kinda rude, imo.
um they use some of our words because some of the things didn't exist in their culture until it was somewhat Westernized. It was simply easier for them to use english words like Ice cream, rather than making it up themselves.
ROFL!!! You're very lucky they actually told you that the end part was the poo... Funilly enough, during my first exchange they had me munching on the whole lot (including the tasty tender parts at the end) and i thought it was great...
It took for me to return to japan 3 years later for the same group of folks to tell me the 'tasty part at the end' that i was enjoying was poo :P!
i like it better when you put subs on this vids of yours XD that way i can understand what Happening!!! hey by the way which part of australia are you???
Heya, Thanks for the videos. They were lotsa fun to watch. The mother from your host family is the most hilarious lady ever. Best bit of vicarious fun in a long while. Cheers.

adorable cute family but i find you rude just for asking that.. we kno we kno... ur curious but u shud think before u say something.. and i can tell by ur host mom's face that shes not too happy with that... sooooo.... im not even surprised why u got kicked out... maybe even more rudeness behind the scene.. no offence or anything i wud sayright now that im sorry if u find it offensive but just expressing my opinion... hope u dont mind
@pur0mu i think it was less anger or anything like that it seems to be more of confusion in not understanding the original question and then to the contumplation of the answer
Nice.. im going next year as well, and your family seems very nice! And you understand pretty much :) How long were you there? And when was this video taken after you came to japan?
its like that all over the world....i'm swedish and i understand norweigen. they did't steel anything they have their own languish. its just similar to ours. do u understand or does it sound to goody goody ^^
japanese stemed from chinese. The first japanese were travelers sent from china by the emperor. They couldn't find what the emperor was looking for so they fled to an island now known as japan and lived there. They made a language more easy to speak and write than chinese but with a lot of chinese words cause they were well chinese. I'm pretty vauge on the details but yeah that's what happened
@TheTechgenius Just wanna state the fact , most of the countries around China went to China and studied the language/culture when China was prosperous. However, when China became "weak" later on and in recent dynasty, those countries try so hard to get rid of the relation with China, thats why Vietnamse invented theri "Pin Yin" language after using chinese for a thousand years,
@TheTechgenius Japan invented their language because the early immigrants from China were not capable to understand/write the complex Kunji words or they sort of forget after they reached that island, Korean invented korean in one of their dynasties and now the people even believe the universe was created by them, and they clamied confucius was korean so are other famous inventations!!
@TheTechgenius HAHA. what am I trying to say is human beings are extremely selfish animals afterall, when you are strong , they admire you. when you are weak, they try their best to abandon you. But eventually, the culture is rooted in their culture forever and you can't never get rid of it~

hi question i was wondering did yo ulearn to speak japanese in your earlier years of school in america??? im thinking about studying abroad in japan but i really want to know how to speak it at least decently before i try to go there
u are bad Akita Tom hehe good question actually I wana ask that too why orange juice in spanish there is there own translation to the spanish jugo de naranja and every single word
Japanese have been adapting foreign languages forever. First, it was Chinese, then Portugese and now (mostly) English. As you can see in the video, Japanese equivalent of "juice" had been dead for sometime, juice is now a Japanese word.
It's the way of life in Japan and I don't see it a negative thing. Japanese people like to learn something and adapt something from outside world.
when you take japanese in high school, you sign up for this program called J.E.T. and you can go study overboard and have a host family. :O hope this helps
Wow! your host family is so adorable! :D :D i'm planning to spply for an exchange program to japan :P i know some japanese, or i understand alittle of the speech

In the Philippines if there's no specific native words for it we use English because it's the major language of the World... :D

By the way, sazae tates pretty good and chewy. It's pretty expensive too(and increasing so).
I have never tried escargot but I'm guessing taste very similar.

Japanese have been adapting foreign languages forever. First, it was Chinese, then Portugese and now (mostly) English. As you can see in the video, Japanese equivalent of "juice" had been dead for sometime, juice is now a Japanese word.
It's the way of life in Japan and I don't see it a negative thing. Japanese people like to learn something and adapt something from outside world.

when you take japanese in high school, you sign up for this program called J.E.T. and you can go study overboard and have a host family. :O hope this helps
