Hi, therel! I am Haruka. I am a language learning nerd and studying English, French, Korean (I love K-pop for over a decade!), and Chinese. I am a mom of future French native speaker. I share my passion for teaching my native language, Japanese, to my daughter with you!
Salut! Je suis Haruka. Je suis un geek de l’apprentissage des langues et j’étudie l’anglais, le français, le coréen (j’adore la K-pop depuis plus d’une décennie! ) et le chinois. Je voudrais vous aider à apprendre le japonais, en particulier ceux qui veulent travailler au Japon. Nous ne vivons plus au Japon, mais en tant qu’immigrant au Québec, je sais à quel point il est difficile de vivre dans une langue différente de la vôtre. J’espère que vous apprécierez mes vidéos! : )
Really useful video, now it's time for me to give you a tip, "J'ai déjà été" related to a place is wrong, it's better to say: "Je suis déjà allé(e)" The "avoir été" is more for a state of being, like happy or sad, young, fat, slim, etc... "J'ai été très content de ta vidéo" and "Je suis allé à Kyoto et j'ai été émerveillé". A lot of french peoples commit that mistake, you can help them now 😅 Thanks for the french in your lesson and your simple and great explanations.
Merci infiniment !!! Je ne savais pas la différence entre eux. J'ai posé la question à mon prof quand j'étais à l'école de langage, mais la réponse n'était pas assez claire. Maintenant, je peux les utiliser avec confiance !! Merci !!😀😀
Some of these simple (and important ) teaching points were completely lost to me while studying in my Japanese language classes. They literally explain everything using 100% Japanese! How on earth am I supposed to understand that? Think about how insanely stupid it is: I'm trying to learn how to properly use Japanese grammar, such as particles and whatnot, and the teachers are literally explaining it to me in advanced Japanese. Makes ZERO sense!!! Arigatou gozaimasu, otsukare sama deshita!
This video is awesome! You make it very clear to understand. Anyway you said that the sentence structure of Japanese is opposite comparing to English, but you as a native Japanese speak English fluently! I just want to say, your hard work really paid off. You faced some tough challenges, but you accomplished it admirably.🎉
Thank you very much for this comprehensive lesson! I am studying Japanese by myself, and was confused about when to use はor が, and your video is very informative. I’m so glad I came across your video!
Verb comes at the end of the sentence... Now everyone can see why Japanese language is shit... If you can't finish you sentence, no one can understand what you talking about...
English has 26 letters in it's alphabet and is the most efficient and best language in the world. If I was a dictator, I would destroy all other worldly languages and force everyone to learn English only. I think the main reason why 'Whites' invent almost everything in this world - car, computer, airplane, internet, electricity etc., is because our language is the most efficient and so we are best at communicating and sharing ideas. I think if Japanese people only learned English from birth, or if the Chinese only learned English from birth, they too could invent things at the same pace as us 'Whites' do. I think most people's languages hold them back from learning more efficiently. My wife was born and raised in China and even she said that her language is much harder to learn than English. And so I often say to her 'Why speak your language if you recognize that English is the better way to communicate?'.
I missed this somehow 😯. The lyrics to the song you chose are so funny; it's like every American stereotype for visiting Japan lol. I'm glad you got the matte blue cups, that would have been my choice too. I think your husband was right, they look nice as a pair. It would have been cool if they came in the same glaze, but with different colors though(blue and pink for his and hers maybe).
