My compliments to the guy willing to put himself through all these cringey but recognisable situations! Well done my dude. The girl working in the izakaya was good too!
Haha this was so realistic. I have encountered in so many countries Americans thinking random Spanish words are a viable alternative to whatever language the country actually speaks 🤣🤣🤣
I like the multiple examples of formal/semi-formal ways to say/ask for things. The example like, "please give me." Versus, "please can I have?'" being a question was really good to know. Also Arigatou Gozaimaso was hilarious.
The fact that "arigatou gozaimaSO" was not scripted makes this ten times funnier!! 😂😂 Great lesson, easy to follow, and info is burned into my mind because of Mike's suffering 🤣
The ''american kanji menu'' killed me :D What a great and fun way to make an informative video! By showing the wrong method at the start, the learning is more effective, plus it's funny and relatable for foreigners :D
First no nonsense Japanese guide of restaurant ordering I've ever seen that could be understood by beginners but doesn't avoid keigo or casual structures that speakers might actually use. Thanks for the video!
Super helpful video!!! And Mike's struggle seemed so real, with such detailed and relatable reactions , the mispronunciations, and failed attempts to communicate, he really nailed it XD!!!! ありがとうございまSO!
@@Jordan-inJapan Hilariously, I only saw the written sign after I had asked for his recommendation... it was the same. But, yes... "everything" could be a difficult recommendation to live with. ;) also, I am a very picky eater, so I have to be careful with trusting others. 😅
Best Japanese language tips for izakayas and restaurants I've came across so far, I'll be rewatching this over and over before my trip next month. I've been studying Japanese for awhile but I still have a lot to learn. Thank you so much Miku-san, definitely subscribing!
This video is really useful. When learning a new language, it is crucial that you identify which aspects of the language you need to learn first. Practical situations are great to learn the basics! Doumo arigatou!
@@mikurealjapanese I really like this format. The grammar based videos are useful for learning to be fluent, but these situation ones help a lot with speaking naturally.
Thank you very much for this videoo! This is actually the exact type of video I needed haha! We need definetly more of those specific situation dependent japanese videos! :D
My Japanese still needs to be worked on but back in the old days when I couldn’t read, write or speak a lick of it, I’d just awkwardly stare at the waiter/cashier/shop attendant until we both starting miming out what we want to say 😂
Thank you so much Miku san!! This is very helpful!! Please do more videos like this one!! Also, this brought me memories of myself in other countries 🤣😅🥲
I'm more nervous about my 4th trip to Japan because I know the most Japanese out of the group (which is basic at best) and these lessons are really helpful as I can listen to real life situations. No matter how much Japanese I can speak I need to be able to understand the response too and formal Japanese is just a curve ball.
aha, after couple of months not checking our channel never thought that you have such a new funny way to teach Japanese. good job! 長い間このチャンネルを見ていないですけど、いきなり開いたら今こういう面白い形で日本語を教えてるのを思わなかったですが、素晴らしい！
konbanwa sensei.im beginer to study japanese language when i first see your video im very thankfull because .your way in teaching is great thats why im always waiting your new video.arigatou gozaimasu sensei...
Thank you for sharing various ways of asking for things. Also, do people still use the gesture of crossing fingers like and "X" to say they are finished and would like the bill? I used to find that easier than speaking when I was in Japan many years ago. But we don't use the same hand gesture to request a check in the U.S.
The "X" sign as nonverbal communication is still often used particularly when there are too many people in the restaurant, and the clerk may not hear you.
