  • Given this was uploaded in 2006, before the financial crises, it is very foresighted!

  • One of worst in "japanese commercials"-category. Grr, This has a story that one can actually UNDERSTAND... wtf (must be due to the rotten western influence)

  • 0:37 ''hai'' doesnt mean ''no'' bad subtitles?

    ImIwilliamImI 1 year ago

  • I'm Japanese.

    The Sub is correct.

    For the negative question sentence like "You haven't read newspaper, huh?" ,

    in English "NO" is used for "not reading" ,

    but in Japanese language "hai (Yes)" is used to mean "yes, what you say is correct"

    So I sometimes mistake reading English including negative questions.

  • He said "Yes" and the end, "Hai" not 'no' because no is "iie"

    Animedrawngirl 1 year ago

  • @Animedrawngirl

    Yes he said "yes". But answering "yes" to a nagative interrogative means "no" in Japanese.

  • lol. oh and the last thing he said, "hai." It's suppose to mean yes. not no. No is iie. . . .

    X3PandasX3 2 years ago

  • also is afirmation that means he didnt read the newspaper

    Dlayer7 2 years ago 3

  • Oh, okay then.

    X3PandasX3 2 years ago

  • No, Hai in this sentence answers a negative question negatively

    Yes, I didn't read the newspaper doesn't work well in English so the translator just put "No"

    ferretboy787 2 years ago

  • Well, except that they asked him "You haven't read a newspaper?" So by saying "hai", he was agreeing with the statement, that he hadn't read it, so it can also work as "no, I haven't" in this case.

    I know what you mean though. :3

  • haï doesn't mean no, bad traduction

    popkorn224 3 years ago

  • It's opposite in Japan. If that was in English you would reply "No" as in No I haven't read it, but in Japan you say Hai (Yes) sort of like agreeing with the previous statement.

    uTubePL0X 3 years ago 5

  • for better clarification, question that was asked was asked in a negative way. thus he responded with yes. if he said no, then that would mean that he did not not read the news thus meaning that he did. This is a common mistake in english but even still, people always know what you really mean.

    kuratajutsu 3 years ago 4

  • That means: 'Yes, I didn't read the newspaper today'.

    In conclusion, 'NO'.
