thank you

[BlatentlyBooshified]

May I ask about the words for "Cute" and "Scary"? Aren't they sort of similar or am I completely wrong?

[jj8585]

cute=kawaii

scary=kowai

[syaxius]

[pattap30]

Hey Alyssa, no more videos from you already!?

I really love your jap teaching videos cause the way your teach is so natural, especially when you add info about yourself, such as "I hate it whenmy hair is flat.." (it's makes just makes your teaching not that boring but funny instead) Thanks! hope to see more of your videos soon ya! ^-^

[asongcalledhope]

do more of the fingers

[supergirll92]

Thank you! I have been attempting to learn japanese recently..i'm hoping to go to college there..and your video's help alot. especially this one. So, Thank you!!

[danizcool123123]

you spell it arigatou i think and it means thank you when someone gives you something

[iMakeNoSence]

Arrigato is um that how i spell it? cuz like i know it means thanks or bye im not sure xD

[robynoo]

it helps. but the same word is confusing. I'm going to do japanese is college.

[jedichris8]

sooo kawaii. :P

[Kajagoogoo3]

If your reading this. You should become a school teacher.

[hapaloha]

[Annikichan]

Please add some more Japanese lesson videos. They're great!

[kodahip]

[ryu12387]

your teaching methods are really good, and that thing you did with your fingers was a great way to demonstrate the way thewords should sound, gread vid

[21lv3r]

so cute jay matta :)

[cando86]

Thank you so much! Keep on doing those finger movements- they really help, or at least they do for me.

[sycolution]

"chan" is friendly yeah, but with the whole respect thing in Japan, you wouldn't really want to use it unless you actually know the person you're talking to fairly well *nods* Hey, I didn't know that about rain and candy...I just thought it was a context thing :S thanks for that :)

[yuetching]

The finger movement and the illustrations were really great for remembering the words..thanks!

[binkobinks]

yo alyssa, u rock! when i go 2 college i wanna learn japanese and i can't wait!!! :)

thanx a ton for the great videos! they r great!!! :D

[thecreatoreyeam]

wow.......i love ur videos.....i love languages and i've pretty much been studying languages all my life so trust me when i say the finger thing is wonderful.

[jheyare123456]

hi thanks for your video i relly enjoy so much watching.

[youngbonzi]

A couple more:

HAshi - chopsticks

haSHI - bridge

SAke - salmon

saKE - rice wine

[jammydodgerbaby85]

yes, the fingers help alot!! I struggled with Ame(Rain) and Ame(Candy) but when you slowed it down and used the trusty fingers I could see the difference!! Arigato!!

[deityofanimee]

You probebly know way more Japanese than me but your pronounciation isn't that good, otousan should sound like odousan

[ichigo456]

can you go over before eating and asking someone out

[sasukelovr101]

thank-you/arigatou so much i'm starting to study japanese and if you know a website that's simple please tell

[sorard]

can you go over family members??

[theemortalgoat]

I think the finger movement to show the length of the sylibals was very helpful.

[SpIcKaLiCiOuS]

I always wanted to learn the japanese language and my dream is to go to Japan one day *sigh*. But can you teach us the 3 different types of Alphabet please!

[silatk]

Alyssa when are you making more videos? Excellent way to teach. Thank you!! you are a great teacher.

[winterxbliss]

Your funny when you do the finger for the last ame and ame one xD but it helps soooo much! ty!

[DylanWan]

This is really helpful. Thank you.

[GothicPerson]

Can you do a video on Honourifics?

[elwber]

i wish romaji could have accents like spanish does. now here is a question..how does the japanese know how to pronounce it? does kanji hiragana o katakana show how to pronounce words?

[joemax6403]

oh my gosh...the fingers actually helped me

[MaiShiranui]

[hapaloha]

[rickybduc]

.....sugoi. ganbatte

[hapaloha]

[joellaspier]

whaha its so cute with that finger but it helps...

[Dracujesus]

The fingers are a very cute memory helper!

As well, the little longer living thing was great for obaa and oba. :)

I am really sad, however, that Japanese has tonal differences in words (amè and amé). :P

[dakroland]

Cool! You could also have included the word for Chopsticks and Bridge. And the finger visual DEFINITELY helps. :) Thanks so much!

[hapaloha]

you know what, my mom said that too!!

[morgic222]

Im more interesting with you not Japanese... But while I am wathing many many times I saw that I also learnt Japanese :)) Ja matana, may be few words

[hapaloha]
