Wow you speak japanese so well!! It's true!(because actually I'm Japanese) You're welcome is "どういたしまして" in Hiragana, and "どう致しまして" in Kanji. And also, Itadakimasu is "いただきます" and "頂きます".
Wow...I can't believe I now just saw the japanese speaking version of Lily Allen.....you have the same great smile...the same bright eyes and even your voice sounds alike....( I LUUUUUUUUUUUUURRRRRRRV Lily btw...) Oh...and no: you don't have to fear me, because I want Lily to be my faghag....LOL. I bow my head to your japanese!!!
@gyqz I lol'd. I also love Lily Allen. In fact, for a friends party (celebrity themed) I was told to go as her since I couldn't think of anyone else I looked like. It worked out pretty well.
Sorry, I was reading some of the comments from far back, and I just had to say I find it hilarious when fellow Americans say "OHNOE MAN, YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THIS VURY COMPLEX JAPANESE CULTURE. SO TYPICALLY AMERICAN."
xD Honestly, they make me laugh. A few more newly learned words, thanks :D Oh, and two comments below me... I find it hard to believe that comment wasn't posted to offend.
Well no shit. If they're from Japan, of course they're fluent. It's kind of rude and obnoxious to leave this on someone's page without fully recognizing that this was made nearly a year ago, therefore meaning my skills have since improved.
Hi,Kate I'm a Japanese guy studying English for fun. I don't know if you understand the rude comments written in Japanese below. It's not written by a Japanese for sure. I can tell that easily. Could be someone learning Japanese and being hostile toward you with rivalry. Just don't worry about it.
It's not about correcting my pronunciation that I got mad about. It's pretty much saying I don't know anything about Japanese when hers is extremely flawed.
Haha. I find it funny that you think I'm annoying and actually take the time to let me know. If you're annoyed, don't bother watching. Plzkthnx, loser.
You don't know how much of a cliche you are. You're just another fat, white social reject trying too hard to be a cute little Japanese girl. Stop it. You're clogging the tubes.
ah, people are just touchy because it's their culture and they get mad when we screw with it. It's understandable, I'd be the same way, but yeah, I do say amen to you too! :]
And you're an expert? Uh-huh. You who say you know "1000 kana". There aren't even that many. Try about 46 for each hiragana and katakana. If my math is correct, that's way under 1000. So stop trying to correct me, Miss Sakura-chan (ugh...), and get on with your life.
Oh, about some of your videos... deSU? Japanese basics 101 - don't overly pronounce the "su". It's wrong.
If you're not a native speaker, don't you dare try and say I'm wrong.
I get this all the time and I'm sick of it. I know that I should know the correct spelling but everyone corrects me. Don't think you're the first.
And I'm not different soley by myself. I'm different from some because I'm not doing it to be cute and because I think Japan is "kawaii". I'm doing it because I want to make it my career. I'm taking two courses right now on the language, so don't talk to me about "earning respect".
I know the difference by now. Forgive me for not remembering the second I was on camera. And so my spelling is off. Whoop-dee-freakin'-doo. I don't appreciate you lumping everyone who decides to get interested in the Japanese culture together. Most are anime dorks who want to learn the language but will never stick with it. I plan on actually becoming somewhat fluent and living there. So don't you dare categorize me with the rest of them.
posting the correct spelling is an insult? if ur going to try to TEACH something, u should know your subject. or do multiple takes so u get it right if someone's relying on wat you say.
ur not lumping them together? you're so special that u can't be categorized with those as interested as u? taking the time to actually watch your videos because they want to learn? japanese is a beautiful, useful language. you can plan on it all you want, but ur not earning any respect until you go thru with it.
And you're just wasting bandwidth. Please go jump off a cliff or something. I don't need your negativity here. Plus, I'm not black. I'm white. Get the racial slang straight.
It's not outdated. It's used every day. And not just by me. Check Attack of the Show on G4, dumbass.
And no, you're not allowed to troll on my site. You're just a fucking failure at life and therefore want to make yourself seem more important by bringing people who are loads better than you down to your own level. That, Czirro, is what epic fail is all about.
you shouldn't reply to all who insult you ^_^, just hatters don't bother :), take care ! oh and by the way, make some grammar lessons included in your video, not just vocabulary, that will be cool, oh and a part where you teach one kyu kanji then you advance, that will be also cool :D じゃあまたね
Hey, don't let the idiots that put up negative comments phase you--like you said. You're doing a good job. I've lived abroad before and had to deal with some "haters" before, too. You'll realize that if you were to try to speak a foreign language in someone's country, they'll greatly appreciate it. More than if you immediately asked, "Do you speak English?" That's pretty bad. I've seen it a bit...including: "Why don't you speak English?" WHILE the female American was in this LADY's country!
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Oh...and who needs to aquire a life?
Some narcisistic chick with lame japanese accent who records herself for hours, or somebody who actually lives 8 months a year in Japan, but don't make a fuzz about their japanese knowledge.
I am sick of retarded " Konitiwa" and "oyasumi nasai" videos from fame starved white chicks like you.
So get lost, people really don't need you, there are so many ways of improving one's japanese.
Well, most people don't have the money to pay for a good Japanese class like I'm having to do right now. Sorry that I was born as a Caucasian female so that I fit your pathetic stereotype better, but that doesn't mean I don't take enjoyment in helping others who don't have money or great internet resources. And besides, you think your comments are really going to phase me? I get this at least once a week. Save your energy now.
No, it just pisses me off to hear ur lame accent in japanese, there are lots of posts better then yours on youtube, so urs are unnecessary. Really, and not because I am married to a japanese, but because some of the guys out there will believe, the japanese sounds like ur crap.
You want to look smart, but you are just cheap.
So....according to ur narrow mind, everyone who leaves comments should aquire a life, or only the ones that don't taste ur bullshit?
lol can i just point that out in the background cause now im really annoyed wat is it why is it in all ur videos background that god damn black thing on the bed: really good work by the way
Thank you so much! I knew how to say most of those phrases already but I wasn't totally sure about "You're Welcome". My guess on how to pronounce it was right. Thanks ^^ I love your funny example ("Don't touch my mustache.")! I told it to my sister and she laughed a lot too.
Ahaha. I love how you think you're being all tough and mean. Sweety, how about you go back to sucking your boyfriends cock and stop picking fights on the internet. It's pathetic.
So suddenly you know what the whole Japanese race is thinking? Did they hire you to speak for them or somthing? Stop plaguing other peoples videos when you're just ignorant and can't understand that this person is trying to help. I was an exchange student in Japan and nobody cursed at me just because I was american. I don't know what you're problem is but Hhayaku inaku nareyo that means Fuck you!
p.s. Boku no shiri ni kisu siro, i'll leave you to find out what that means
Boku no shiri ni kisu siro means "kiss my a**" but its roughly translated. Sorry I had to post such a mean comment on one of your learning videos but that person (calicore) was being so rude and I wanted to give them a piece of my mind. Please keep up the videos.
Haha. Don't worry about it. I find it hilarious. I curse so much at ignorant people it doesn't bother me. But thanks for sticking up for me. Hey, is there any specific lesson you'd like me to go over, maybe?
Calicore, you're an idiot! I've had a few Japanese penpals plus there's website where you can make penpals from Japan and none of them has ever said they hate Whites. In fact, most of them say they want penpals from North America. You obviously have no idea what you're talking about and you're just a plain idiot who knows absolutely nothing of Japan. Get a life!
Wow you speak japanese so well!! It's true!(because actually I'm Japanese) You're welcome is "どういたしまして" in Hiragana, and "どう致しまして" in Kanji. And also, Itadakimasu is "いただきます" and "頂きます".
