Anyone is welcome to add English and Japanese captions to this video:

(just paste the link to this video after clicking "Specific Video...")
If you want, you could make three separate Japanese tracks for romaji, all kana, and kana/kanji. The transcripts of the skits are in the textbooks. You can email me the captions at japloosh@gmail.com

  • Actually young japanese prefer not to use "shi" for number four, 'cuz it's the  word for death.

  • If you want to find info about the actor who plays Yan San, google: "Yan-san lives!" and there is a picture of him as he looks today.

  • If you stop the video at 1:09 when Mary's mouth is open, it looks like she just finished giving a blowjob. :S

  • 4:38  lmao!

  • You know, I'm really digging this series so far. Great method for teaching Japanese, I think I may actually finally learn some of the language thanks to this! And I just realized that the style reminds me a lot of "The Electric Company." Those minimalist sets, cheap video effects, and such...and don't Kaiho-san and Sugihara-san remind you a bit of that legendary team, Skip Hinnant and Judy Graubart? Great stuff!

  • @ai43v3r "chikai" is an adjective, "chikaku" is an adverb.

    it's also used as a part of negative version of an adjective - "chikai, chikaku arimasen"

  • @ai43v3r "ha" (pronunced "wa") is for nominativ, "no" is for genitiv, "ni" is for dativ, "wo" (pronunced "o") is for accusativ, etc.

  • Wooow! It's true!

  • have the lessons gotten tougher or is it just me? i mean, suddenly the main skits have all these other words and phrases that aren't easy to understand, as if I'm supposed to ignore them and focus only what's both in the main skit and lessons. or is that how it works? and why're they saying the number and directions so quickly. the taxi cab part was too quick.

  • i understand it's difficult. particules can be tough to understand.

    o is used with verbs. and wa is a topic marker. for example: Smith-san wa tennis o shimasu - (Smith plays tennis), smith is the topic, playing tennis is the verb.

    wakarimasu ka?

  • im confuse with those markers.. how do "o" and "wa" differ? when to use and what kind of sentence is it use? anybody?
