Thanks for the video with Naoko-san! You and her speak slowly and I really like that. Because I can comprehend much more in comparison to how Japanese people speak in their everyday life. It is very charming video. Also I really appreciate the subtitles with reading on kanji and pictures of subject you both talk about.
Thanks for this!! I understand most of the conversation!! I just finished Genki 2 and I took JLPT N4 recently. It's hard to come by channels that produce videos that are not too easy and not too difficult!! This is great!!
As an English speaking foreigner living in Japan, this is a really nice conversation to watch and understand. I'm happy it popped up in my recommendations. Looking forward to watching more!
I like you're videos about simple Japanese kaiwa. It's easy to understand. It's great for those who are learning this language. Please make more videos covering different topics. Thank you.
Where's naoko right now??? Ask her to come back please. Great content by the way! It's really nice to see people like you working hard for create this kind of content
I knew Naoko san personally. My friend, he actually has taken my lesson before, takes her lesson and he uploaded them on his RU-vid channel. I’m happy to see her in here. How do you meet her?
Oh, so you guys have a mutual student? It started from watching her RU-vid channel, then I became a fun of it. Naokoさん is great! She speaks clearly. And her RU-vid channel is amazing!
Hi Ken-sensei, this video was really enjoyable to watch! I loved the infographics you had on specific Japanese vocabulary. It was awesome to hear about your stories living abroad as well :) I just wrapped up a trip >10.000 km away from where I live so I feel like I was able to relate closely to your stories 😆 Thank you and looking forward to future videos!
Zahidさん！ お久しぶりです！ Thanks for watching and appreciate to your comment! . Oh yeah, you also love traveling the world! So the topic for this video is the best one for us, right? 😎 . Are you coming to Japan soon by any chance?
Love your videos, they're so helpful. I do prefer videos like this one over those with explanations and grammar rules only. You display the JP/EN subs on the screen at the same time and this is awesome. Your channel is pure gold for Japanese learners. 😁
Este tipo de conversacion me agradó, Yo sigo a Naoko 先生 y ahora sigo este canal, a Ken 先生. Me agrada los subtítulos para ayudar a seguir la conversación de ambos. Y así voy mejorando mi japonés, gracias por estos videos Ken San. ありがとうございます,
soul187さん、こんにちは！ Thank you for watching! That would be great! Asking questions is the key when having conversations (I think you already know the key😉) ! 応援していますよ！😄
@@kensanokaeri Yes, I already subscribed to Naoko-san's channel because she talks to drawings of cats made with chalk on the sidewalks of Spain! Who can resist that?!
I understand You Naoko-san, my japanese is still not good enough and when I'm in Japan I feel frustrated and alone. Fortunately my wife speaks Italian. I can speak spanish quite well and I can say spanish people are very nice, so please try to learn spanish so you can make a lot of friends there!. it seems in Europe we are going to have problems next winter, were you live is cold, if you are going to stay there, take care.
Leonardoさん、こんにちは! Thank you so much for sharing your feeling that you got in Japan. Yeah, Learning languages are definitely helpful to make friends and to adapt the new life.😉
Umm, it could be YES and NO to your question. It depends on the situation, and the topic and I adapt my speaking speed, and vocabulary depending on who I talk to. You probably see me speak faster in some of my videos (for example when talking to もしもしゆうすけさん / maybe not that fast for you). ゆうすけさん and I have talked a lot in our daily life. So we've talked about lots of topics in both a casual and serious mood, behind the camera too. You will find me using lots of easy expressions or omitting subjects and objects when hanging out with friends (Vlog-style videos). As you talk to me many times, you might find me speaking difficult words, phrases, and grammar, but in this video, Naoko-san and I talked about mainly me and her with chil atmosphere. And it was the first time meeting her. So we were like speaking clearly, a bit slower, and simple questions in order to get to know each other. . Anyway, I would say many Japanese people use simple expressions and easy grammar a lot in their daily life conversations more than you might imagine. . Thank you for reading this long reply. (^^)/
@@kensanokaeri Now that you've mentioned it, I would also like to ask on why you and ゆうすけさん are talking in mixed casual and polite form. Is it normal in japan for friends to talk like that? Thank you for the reply and videos.
I think I speak in a typical way for Japanese people in their 20s and 30s.(I'm 27 btw.) . It's not weird to use both formal and casual form for friends in Japanese. . It's because English and Japanese are different. Japanese is actually not only "formal and casual". . The way to talk is different in Japanese. To the boss, colleagues who has more experienced or not, older or younger colleagues, clients, friends, older friends, younger friends, close friends, close friends but older, families, teachers, or kids ... You need to consider about who you talk to and the culture when speaking Japanese. . Also, everyone is not the same, I mean Japanese people have social positions in the society. It's not for discrimination, just the culture to respect people. . もしもしゆうすけさん is obviously older than me, he works for a famous company as a section manager and his RU-vid channel is amazing. I feel like I need to respect him. So I usually speak politely. But we are very close as you probably be able to tell. So sometimes casual expressions come from my mouth even when I talk to him. On the other hand, I follow the "Senpai and Kouhai" culture. So I feel like I should keep speaking in formal way when I talk to older friends like ゆうすけさん, まささん (you will see him in the next video)... . He doesn't have to speak formally to me, but he likes to use formal expressions. I assume that he is always surrounded by the working environment. Then he got used to always speaking formal, maybe? But again the way he speaks to me is not that formal. I guess he speaks more formally and faster when he's working. Something like that. . Thank you for reading this long reply. It's hard to explain the questions with just texting😅 . Anyway, I will keep posting Japanese conversation videos with different type of people. So I hope you find the way and the culture in my videos.
