[lolturtle13]

@ummPOTATOZ lol. Google translate fail. xD It says, "Panther...panther...panther o.O. The pink panther is sitting in a chair. I just learned a new kanji by watching this video.YAY! Now I will eat a cookie. I love cookies." I haven't learned much past the basics. I haven't done self study session in months either. xD

[ummPOTATOZ]

@lolturtle13 Lol CURSE YOU GOOGLE TRANSLATE! Lol im teaching myself japanese by watching youtube videos

[ccreutzig]

Just note that the traditional schools of Japanese calligraphy strictly forbid retracing of a brush stroke.

[Justl3lFun]

how do you call that pen ( brush ...) the thing they use to write?

[NMRA]

@Justl3lFun sorry if you already found out but it's simply a brush pen in English or a fudepen 筆ペン in Japanese

[pandemonic01]

[lktimmons]

@cct346078604 Japanese has three writing systems:

Hiragana

Katakana and

KANJI!!!!

[cct346078604]

[frankmyrand]

QUESTION! in the manga death note... or other. the name of Raito was write with 月(tsuki) but HOW TSUKI CAN BECOME RAITO???!!!

[xTsukiyo]

Since Japanese people sometimes force the reading of kanij. 月 has other ways of reading it to.

[NingyoAijin]

Kanji have multiple readings and meanings...

[NMRA]

do you watch one piece?

"the grand line" is written 偉大なる航路

manga artists do it all the time. Meaning in kanji, reading in a foreign language (usually english or dutch)

[regerabit]

The explaination is probably easier than you think ;-)

As all of the other Japanese names Light's name also couldn't be written in Roman (English) alphabet , but in kanji. The actual Japanese kanji for 'light' is 明 (pronounced mei) , but Light's parents couldn't use it at registering their son as a kanji for his name if they wanted to call him 'Light' because 明 is already known as a kanji for a common Japanese name (pronounced 'Akira').

[regerabit]

In order to not cause even more misunderstandings (they already wanted to give their son a difficult-to-pronounce for most Japanese English word as a name) they had to find another solution. As 'Light' means in English 'light', they had to find some other kanji, whose meaning would also have to do something with 'light'.

[regerabit]

So they chose 月 (tsuki), as it means 'moon' ;-)

And where comes the 'Raito' instead of 'Light' from? 'Raito' is simply the japanized pronounciation of the English word 'Light', which was Light's name (I already said it's hard to pronounce 'properly' for most Japanese people). ;-)

I hope this brought a bit of light at the issue. I find it logical, I hope you do, too. ^^ Somebody corect me if I'm wrong.

[khalidscuba]

漂亮的女孩

[LVCIVSTVLLIVSATELLVS]

I know that I'm probably wrong, but to me, that looks like a Chinese exclusive character. I've never seen a japanese word with that before.

[Semeyaza]

It's Hyou, leopard in english.

But what she's doing is hardly shodo...

[LVCIVSTVLLIVSATELLVS]

Thanks

[hinduhkush]

think u could fuck wit me in writing kanji

i can do it in under a minute

[CAPPUCCINOJONES000]

what kanji is thhat?

[andarks]

Ugly. those strokes look very occidental.

[joebevis92]

people go pick up a copy of Remembering the Kanji by James Heisig, and then try and tell me 漢字 are hard.

[pumpfever]

El que está con ella habla en español 0.o

[hiragana3]

漢字は芸術ですね

[chhorlimsgren]

That dude has a bad case of Robin Williams-itis.

[dellexell]

arnt you sopposed to make those fat and thin parts with the brush itself in the movement, NOT coloring it in?

[GuamKomudo]

Ya, shes not some super master obviously, but it turned out alot better than anything I could do and im sure your in the same boat...

[Chichiri520]

Yes.

Youre not supposed to color it in. That would destroy the whole purpose of calligraphy. I think though the person is doing it just for fun.

[cake43217]

GORILLA AT THE END

[NingyoAijin]

i have a strange feeling that woman drawing the kanji is called katy, i dunno why...

[pedazodecola]

[Brightstar27]

[chiknhed6]

She's freaking hot

[tykz]

true.

[BdeBakan]

sou desu ne.

[chiknhed6]

hai. totemo kirei desu yo

[BdeBakan]

:) heh

[assassin0000]

kanji wa totemo kirei desu ne~

[pf91rodman]

hehe, I don't know why but writing Kanji is my favorite thing in Japanese.

Alot of people hate it though, but I think it's beautiful.

[GuamKomudo]

Ya Kanji is super beautiful! But... Learning them all is very hard and takes a very long time... Thats why people dont like it, I belive it is an art, its very beautiful and pretty, but so difficult. I love and hate learning Kanji lol

[Chichiri520]

Same thing. Kanji are beautiful. Maybe people are just too lazy to learn it because they are so used to their phonetic writing system and they want something similar. Well, thats not the case in Japanese. People should probably learn a language that uses their similar writing system if they cannot handle learning another's system of writing, especially when it comes to Kanji.

[oddeye889]

She wrote "Hyou", lol. But seriously, just to be sure, this is NOT how to write Kanji, this is more like "art-painting", the real art of writing Kanji is Shodou and this character only has 11 storkes...

[seanx23]

I understand to westerners Kanji might be a bit hard with all the strokes...

Japanese uses Kanji, which are Chinese Charaters and modifyed ones that arn't used in China.

also Romanji which is part of latin alphebet.

[nachostealer]

wat language do they write in in japan

[NMRA]

you might wanna rephrase that question

[epiKphaLe]

Nacho, they write in Katakana, Hiragana and Kanji.

[nachostealer]

thanx

[iamlearningthings]

The same that they speak, Japanese.

[Smadlin01]

kana and kanji...japanese

[x1xMuffinManx1x]

sooo hairy lol

[mysbeautiful1]

lmfao rotfl

[Kuriboh9024]

Damn you fine as hell. Your very hot.

[Chryley94]

i want to learn to read write and speak japanese can anyone tell me a book or somthing that can help

[NMRA]

reading japanese by eleanor harz jorden and genki by the japan foundation are the standards in universities but also good for self teaching. if you finish them then i would recommend the kanji learners dictionary by... someone.. but you'd have to be really into it to work from that book

[gaarahearter]

do you know how to make japanese letters on the computer? if you do.. tell me how to!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[NMRA]

you may have to first get asian fonts.

if you do, go to control panel, look for language, click add languages, tick both the boxes, click advanced and select japanese from the drop down list.

when you want to type in japanese, right click on the "En" towards the right of the taskbar. restore it. click the new yoke that probably says "English (United States)" and change it to japanese. change input mode to hirigana and type. it converts automatically and gives you a list of other conversions

[TheDelta23]

Booshibonton i first think you are talking about her hands but when i saw his i almost die :D :D :D

[Cek77]

They're not my hands by the way. :)

[NMRA]

are you there?

[Cek77]

I was in Japan on holiday, I started to learn japanese to go back for some time, but right now I'm in stand-by.

[NMRA]

I meant were you there at the time

[Cek77]

I was, I was the one holding the camera.

We were in Toyohashi that day.

[Booshibonton]

omg, his hands are crazy!!! hey're hairy like f**K!!! :O

[Kanashii696]

What kind of pen is that? I have a calligraphy pen but that one looked like a brush...

[CapoeiraLifestyle]

The first 5 seconds of the video is the best part. :)

[yatekka]

its katakana and u 4got hiragana

[elementsk8r37]

dude ther's katakana hirogana and kanji

[yatekka]

its spelled hiragana and i know the 3 writing systems

[BlueScience1]

"hyou" in romaji and "leopard" in english!

I don't understand why japanese people use kanjis, i think romaji or kana are better and easier!

[anyanka4]

well...romajii is not really their so...i like it that japanese language is so...exotic I guess, because of that it's more fun to learn...but only kana would be enough definitely;)

[NMRA]

oh god no! without kanji people would get so confused. theres only 50 sounds in japanese (as you should know) so there are many "homophones" (although not technically homophones) that need a character to represnet meaning

[anyanka4]

Yes, I'm aware of that;) It's just that, the whole process of learning would be a lot easier for such people as me;)

[SainNemi]

Estaban hablando en español? Me ha parecido escuchar "Pequeño en Hiragana"!!

[Cek77]

Si, porque esta chica fue en Barcelona por estudiar español.

[DaDaKat]

hairyyy knuckles o.o

[mrflooo]

what does this kanji mean?

[waros4you]

hyou = leopard or panther

hyou + hen(change) = a sudden change
