Learn Japanese - Japanese Body Language and Gestures Lesson 6

[FuckinBurn1]

So if I wanted to say "that's enough, get the hell out of here!" then I'd say: mouii, atchi ike!

Right?

[AonGuardian]

1:10 - *Scrolls down to read comments*

1:25 - ..."Are you still here?!"

Me: ...*scrolls back up* "yesh?" :o

[RUL1S88]

Lol if I ever used this gesture in my school eveyone will think I'm retarded and they gonna beat me up for doing such a weird thing.

[Clearie552]

catchy music is catchy!!!

[himalaya213]

be my sensai

[lumberj23]

No shit, and I always thought that gesture means: "Come closer, tell me more, you are very interesting."

[Jen321able]

I got it right! Though it was pretty obvious...

[kizunakenzo]

Always choose letter B 'coz its always right! haha

[foxnad]

i like her face while performing the act heheheheh of going away 0:16 hehehe shes cute kawa--iiiiii

[lycante]

Why is it that even "Atchi ike" sounds polite in Japanese?

[shapeurmind]

Kawaiiiiiiiiii!!!!

[0KatyChan0]

sugoi~!! buravo Hiroko-sensei :)

[boom2000zekrom]

it means im a spaz with problems and im having a spaz attack

[jackapples3]

in one of the earlier videos, she taught im sorry, as gomen, if thats im sorry, then what is gomenasai

[japanesepod101]

@jackapples3 gomen nasai is the polite version of gomen. :)

[Marbrco2]

a hahah you did a funny face on this video :D i love you Hiroko :D

[eeskaatt]

hiroku sensei wa kirei na

did I formulate that sentence right? "teacher hiroku is pretty"

[0KatyChan0]

@eeskaatt hahaha xD If you're girl, you can say "Hiroko-sensei wa kirei naa!" and if not, you can say "Hiroko-sensei wa kirei desu." or you can say it without "desu"... btw, her name's Hiroko ^^

xD

[eeskaatt]

@0KatyChan0 thank you very much! :)

they should also include the words that are specifically used to each gender XD

[0KatyChan0]

@eeskaatt xD "na" is used by men but it means interdiction :) e.g. "sonna koto suru na!" (means Don't do a such things!) ... I think xD

[aa3gunner]

I have all the answers right so far. It's similar in Filipino culture.

[TheAle89515]

Lol @ "...other variations..."

[PomPomPurinDude]

I need to say that to people in my class. Their all clones of eachother so i dont like them. . . they dont like me at all =\

[cokemiguel2]

maybe c no thankyou

[alexander707576]

I really like the song of the begin and the last part of the video.

Very much !!!!

[gaivsimo]

mouii is used alot in anime.....

[anirudhkrishnamani]

is "kearo" ok? i think it means get lost.

[HIROKOCHANNEL]

@anirudhkrishnamani maybe you mean, "kiero" -command form of "kieru". :)

[anirudhkrishnamani]

@HIROKOCHANNEL

hai! arigato gosaimasu! hiroko sama!

[WaffleBanisher]

Ooh. Half-swears. :P

[IDOLSMASHER]

Hiroko is TOO Cute!!! (Kawaii!!!!) - I love her voice. Yes, I am familiar with 'That ' Gesture - American girls do it too.

[coccinelsucrer]

the next one looks like "bye bye" ^^

these lessons are truly interesting, i understand much better people's reactions and gestures in the Japanese TV dramas i watch now!

[thaya666]

agree with neojapanese

atchi ike!!!

[Ilcantodellanima]

It' s very similar to italian gesture

[jbpiano1]

her lessons are very simplified so even people with no japanese background whatsoever can get to be quite fluent in the japanese language.... question- i hear there are alot of hip-hop scenes(including record stores) in japan, is this true? i

[japanesepod101]

Yes, there is a pretty big hip-hop scene in Japan :) I'm sure if you look for Japanese hip-hop videos on Youtube, you can find some!

[kalebparham]

@jbpiano1 Search Hime. She's a beast

[IAmWaverly]

I'm really liking all these gestures. Thank-you for these wonderful videos!

[Kiefer414]

Sugoi kantan no kurasu!

Arigatou Gozaimasu!

Mai nichi mo sukoshi wakarimasu!

I really enjoy how you include the facial expressions with the gestures!

[coccinelsucrer]

I have a little question about your first sentence: " sugoi kantan no kurasu"

when using a na-adjective such as "kantan", shouldn't it be "kantan na kurasu" ? Or kan you interchange "na" with "no" after an adjective?

I'm still learning the language so i won't miss any opportunity for learning more about the Japanese grammar!

[kedarjapan]

Your lessons r gr8 !! Best Part is the English explaination & ofcource the

先生 :-)

ありがとう　ございます。

[neojapanese2000]

[gamer00341]

@nadim776 lucky

[shemonk]

she is so cute , is not she :) ?

best teacher in the world :)

[HIROKOCHANNEL]

thank you. :)

[marbmcr]

@shemonk ... indeed, she is the cuttest teacher in the web... je je!

[Selkie15]

@shemonk Best online teacher sure :D I don't think a class full of people going "Awww, isn't she adorable?" would enable her to teach very well though. :p

[Memubitsu]

Hehehe, go go, go on ^^

Nice suit/top btw

[mrquarterpounder]

mecchaaa kawaiiiiiiii

[doggybag71]

The waving for "come here" could easily be misunderstood if you haven't seen it before. Maybe it will be in the next one.

[sandreeen]

Hmm, is the next gesture 'bye bye'? Looks like it, but not really. XD

'Kira kira' / twinkling/sparkling maybe? hahaha, no idea.

[usaverageguy]

The way you wrinkled your nose I thought it meant kasaii.  Stinky

[japanesepod101]

I believe the word you're looking for is kusai!

[usaverageguy]

You are correct. Thanks.

[mtothem93]

nice, i would actualy pay if you guys updated more often :P

[shadedscript]

i love these vids!

[Koroodetto]

Great, next time someone touches my backside on the train in Toyko, I can use these expressions right?

Are these expressions used for an animal? Eg. A dog is annoying you in the park - go away dog?

[ShadowzKiller]

Lol. "Get the heck outta here." Ironically similar to the Finnish mentaliy: "painu helvettiin!"

[fromsevenseas]

lol

[NavarrB]

Literal Translations (from what I can tell):

Acchi ike! (Go that way! [since you're waving in that direction furiously, its go away])

Mou ii! (Enough Already!)

this is correct, yes?

[sandreeen]

that's also what i thought. haha :P

[takineko]

I think we use this one in most countries. XD

[HoshiHikari]

Is THAT guess the gesture one "Bye"?

Hiroko-sensei is the best sensei ever!

[japanesepod101]

Isn't she a great teacher? ;)

[HoshiHikari]

Wait...are you calling yourself a great teacher in the third person...or are you someone else? Either way, yes. =3

[japanesepod101]

This is Jessi ^^ I was agreeing with you that Hiroko-sensei is a great teacher!

[HIROKOCHANNEL]

I wouldn't! lol

[HoshiHikari]

I figured you wouldn't, so I was confused. Thank you so much for these lessons! Domo arigato gozaimasu!

[mercatorblue]

this one was kind of obvious! looking forward to the next vid though :)
