The "L" sound people are commenting about is actually not an L. Pretty close, though. It's what phonetics calls a "flipped R" or sometimes called a "liquid R." It doesn't exist in majority English dialects - usually languages like Spanish have the flipped R like in the Spanish word 'embarazada' (pregnant) or 'erizo' (hedgehog) or the Italian word 'fetore' (stench) versus the rolled double R like in the Spanish word 'arrojar' (to throw).
Ok, this is just confusing. I'm a new student to japanese but this song pronounces the sounds a lot different from all the other songs, lesson that i've already learned.
he pronounces de like "te", ga like "na", and r's like "L"
@Loveseekingmissile "de" and "te" are two different* characters. "de" is "te" with 2 small dots above the character. You should be learning about that later. "ga" is "ka" with 2 small dots, "na" is a whole different character entirely. You are right about "r" sounding like "L" though.
@Loveseekingmissile And in fact, De looks like a Te for us because it's hardly pronounced that in English, French or some others languages. But the Te is most hardly pronounced lol. We clearly can hear the Ka Ki Ku Ke Ko very hardly pronounced in this song.
@lolkid101 Katakana is used for foreign words spelled in japanese sounds, and as was said before no "L" the "R" sound makes an "L" sound when pronounced with a japanese accent.
But it sounds like he is singing katsoku かつぉく de yukikaki and not kazoku かぞくde yukikaki and makka na mimitsu みみつ ga instead of makka na mimizu みみず ga... ???
Fantastic! I love it. Hope could sing this soon. True, the song goes so fast, have to listen sevearl times to go through, or maybe I'm too slow :-) Anyhow, thank you so much! Keep up!

@Chibchub123 Yes, I like saying that the 2 dots ' ' are softened mark and that the circle ° is a hardened (?) mark ^^
If you know Ha, you know also Ba and Pa. If you know To, you know also Do, if you know Ka, you know also Ga ;-)
