  • @5ound6oy oh, ok. I get it now, still the waiter at tokyo-tokyo sounds dumb saying "konnichiwa" even when I'm fucking eating.

  • @5ound6oy 'it sounds like' was ment to be at the start, not 'its'. this was all personal opinion

  • @DemiAries Its pronounced with a silent 'c' and little emphasis on the 'i' like Gohi-so-sama, but the way she pronounces the hi make it sound like a 'y' so to me it sounds like its pronounced goy-so-sama. hope this helps.

  • @Lauren30stmFan Both, actually! It just depends on how you say it. Daijoubu (no intonation) = I'm/it's okay. Daijoubu? (rising intonation) = Are you okay?/Is it okay?

  • @japanesepod101 does daijoubu mean OK or are you ok ? im a bit confused ?

  • @japanesepod101 wow, thank you for the reply now i'll try studying the Japanese sentence structure. Arigatou Gozaimasu

  • @unknownperson9674 Yes, it's "daijoubu" in romaji. :)

  • Is dai jyo bu Japanese for O.K? I don't know if I spelled it correctly.
