wow you sound really cool when you speak Japanese... i sound kinda weird when i speak Japanese because i dont know that much yet and i always pause in the middle of a sentence
Chotto is very useful but I hate it cause I think it kind of sums up Japanese' indecisiveness and hippocracy. I prefere "Bimyo-" (微妙) which can mean very similar to chotto but sounds more sophisticated and hip to Japanese' ear. And more importantly it passes on the message. I find it's frustraing to hear people say chotto and not finish the sentense but if you say Bimyo they 'd know what you mean. But be careful it can sometimes offend people....
i tohught iwas going to call you a tool, but i didn't , i am not sure when that happened , it must have been somewhere between chotto and mmmmmmm CHOTTOOOO
Spot on! I live in Tokyo (you know, Japan's arsehole) and rather pride myself on being able to fake fluent Japanese. 'Chotto' is among my most common devices.
Sometimes your Japanese accent confused me a little but you seem rather fluent despite that. Enjoy your stay in Saga-ken and praise the Lord you're not in Tokyo. :P
LMAO.. youre listening to karate kid song in the bg. i know youre doing that primarily for comedic purposes only.. i just know it, you dont fool me clayton. lol
Well done. I laughed your actings. You got secound name. ha ちょっと Excuse me? やだなぁ a word when you think I woundn't want to do something. ねぇ agree, Excuse me? えっ!? say when you are surprised something. 何これ? What's this? だろうね It may be 多分 or 恐らく maybe その通り。That's right. you got it. そうかなぁ? I don't think so. Do you think so? hmm.. そんなぁ!、あぁ、or えーっ!? OMG, Holy cow
Thak you for adding on to our lesson, MR. Claytonian-sama. You are a very nice man and an excellent teacher. Soon everyone on youtube will speak fluent Japanese.
lol at 2:02 you sound like the voice actor of Ichigo from bleach!
nice tips!!!
