  • JUST DO IT!!!! LOL i love the part when he says just f***ing do it.

  • I'm dead serious to learn japanese.

  • Y'know what I love this video :3 Whenever i get asked how to learn japanese, i give a few links, they ask more, then i say JFDI, they go JFDI? and i link them to this video :3

  • I've actually integrated learning Japanese into my schedule now. Since I really don't have work at the moment, I study 2 hours a day total following 60-60-30. Most of my daily stuff follows that now especially my 3D animation portfolio improvement stuffmahthingies.

  • I was actually making myself do some self-study when I remembered Matsuhashi-sensei (my current Japanese teacher) telling me about this site/YT~ After watching this video, I thought of ways to learn more actively, and found a website that'll send me a new word-of-the-day every day! Today's word is "イケてる" which is a verb that means "to be cool". (^.^)

  • @ChadoBokusta While you're correct in pronunciation-to-spelling, it's actually き"を"つけて. を is technically "wo", but is often pronounced "o" (or お). It's a particle/grammar marker, whereas お is more like a "letter"~ ^^

  • きおつけて means be careful, we use this word alot in hokkaido, my japanese friend i knew awhile ago use to always say drive safe, made me feel good.

  • I agree! just start! :) I started with basic conversation skills and the writing systems! I took the things I usually said daily and learned them in Japanese I just keep building onto this. It seems to work :) I practice everyday :)

  • This video describes me perfectly. I spend a lot of time looking up how to do it instead just trying and making mistakes and things like that.

  • Well,I was walking to Nanba in Oosaka. I saw a sign that said"Umeda 5km" which is where I was headed...I thought,hmmm...should I walk all that way?Then I saw a Nike shirt so I did.
