[Chichiri520]

Cool video! Thanks for sharing!!

[MrPyro145]

How long did it take you to understand hiragana? I just started 2 day and I already have the first 15 down pretty well. Im really good with languages I think. I caught on pretty fast. And is it true that Katakana is much easier then Hiragana?

[zerordieb87]

wow it seems alot easier than i thought it would be!

[missy7600]

wow awesome.u can read fluently Till i feel so lost.ive been wanting to learn japanese for so long. this vid help me a bit i guess.

[Nyaituppi]

That is cool, because so many people, especially americans, will move to, or vacation in another country and not bother to learn the language fluently or atleast enough to communicate, without asking, "do you speak english?" I am going to try and find that chart.

Hey nice vid man. It helped a little. When you went to Japan was it for fun ? Im planing to go my senior year in college and Im trying to learn Japanese ahead of time before I go lol

[ultraphoennix]

[HIPNOTICX]

Which is Easier and Common/ Commonly Spoken In Japan?

Sorry If you answered my questions in the video.

[JusteunMusicien]

Pron'u'nciation. Sorry... You should probably pronounce that word correctly if you're into linguistics. Very cool video.

[RawCombatJapan]

You fucking idiot! I bet you've never left your country have you!? Look at the UK alone, there is a different acent everywhere you go!!! Im from Australia and I'll pronounce it how-ever the fuck I feel like!

[ksanchez21]

@RawCombatJapan I know what its like i spoke spanish first and people made fun of me when i was little because idk how to pronounce word and now i have problems pronouncing and your awsome

[RawCombatJapan]

@ksanchez21 thank you :-)

[Tekeii]

I wish I could find this chart online. Do you happen to remember where you got it from, or did you make it yourself?

[deztructicus]

@Tekeii i might be a little late in saying this but heres a site which shows the kanji and even the proper calligraphic writing.

[percast]

I know them both. :D

Now I'm learning kanjis but having problems with grammar though :s

Funny how I know 150 kanjis and not know how to use them in a sentence. -_-

[getmewildO2]

I hate Kanji! they're so hard to memorize!

I am a big fan of a Japanese so I want to learn Japanese!

I also love Japanese dramas! so I want to learn Japanese... it's such a big bother to read the subtitles!

[luke4liverpool]

what japanese letters do i need to play computer games in japanese?

[RawCombatJapan]

To be honest I wouldnt have a clue.. I dont play games. Make an effort to learn the language if you are genuinely interested.

[cravinpie]

@luke4liverpool You would use Hiragana unless they are emphasizing something thats when you would read Katakana Its sorta like capital and lowercase letters but it makes way more sense when you studie the language

[girlmedolls]

what's the different between Hiragana & Katakana??

[RawCombatJapan]

Thats was one of the video's main purpose. Im more than sure I explained the difference. Please watch again.

[CYPARK10]

You must be very smart to know so many languages. :)

[BillySensei]

My katakana is poor, still studying at the moment, I thought the same thing you first did.. 'oh well get away with hiragana.. not much will be writtin in katakana' and theres a shitload of katakana everywhere.
