I have some questions:
1) I didn't understand what is the diagram of ya yu yo + the consonants called.
2) Why can ya yu yo be nest to only consonants with the vowel "i"?
Hope to have your answer soon. Thank you!
XOXO Law
P.S. Big fan, love your work
Who else is trying to learn Japanese through English, but English is your second language?
Italian here 😊
I am 😅
I'm an Indian
Trying my best after Turkish and English. But here's an advantage: Japanese is similar to Turkish, because it's an agglutinative
language just like Turkish.
Im Hungarian... And so far it's easier then English for me

This is the first Japanese lesson I've ever watched and I'm so excited to finally learn Japanese.
I'll try to update on how my Japanese is going every few months, I'm really determined to learn this language :)
Edit #1: 07/24/23: I just learned all kana and I can now read any non-kanji text moderately quickly. I also just learned how weird Japanese grammar is and the existence of different vocabulary depending on how close you are to someone... This journey's gonna be tougher than I thought, but I won't let that discourage me, and it shouldn't discourage you, either 😁
Edit #2: 08/21/23: I just entirely filled my first Japanese notebook, and I also finished mastering writing the language!! (meaning I know when to use っ and 濁点/半濁点, when to use kun'yomi and on'yomi, all katakana combinations, how to read and write very large numbers, how to read and write dates and time, I could go on. I just meant to say that I didn't master the language, just the "read and write" aspects, sorry if that sounded pretentious lol), and now I'll start learning the grammar, which I'm *hyped* for.
I'll also write down my thoughts:
1) I'm very surprised by how much I was able to learn in just under a month!
2) I have to say, I'm very scared of going back to school, because not only will I have way less time, I don't know if I'll have the mental energy to keep studying after I've been studying all day, but I'll do my best and study hard while I can!! 😁
Edit #3: 26/08/23: I'm updating very quickly after the second edit, but I know I need to say it; I'm gonna be changing my method for learning Japanese. All I used to do was just some traditional studying for about 1-2 hours a day, and sure, I was making progress, but there's no way I was gonna reach my goal within 2 years. So I'm gonna change to this plan:
-Studying kanji from the Kanji Study app everyday by following the JLPT program
-Reviewing what I know with Tango's N5 Anki Flashcards Deck
-Traditional study from a PDF of Genki I textbook/Watching a Tokini Andy video (Whatever will feel more instructive)
-And most importantly, consuming *ONLY* Japanese content. Watching Japanese videos, reading Japanese comments, attempting to reply in Japanese, and maybe reading a few Japanese books every once in a while to use Japanese as much as I can. I know it will work for me because that's how I learned English practically by accident, by simply consuming a lot of English media without actually ever trying to learn the language.
I will mention though, that I am very scared of the different levels of politeness in the language. Japanese speakers will obviously use different levels depending on the situation, so I'll get a lot of mixed signals. But it's definitely gonna be way better than before.
I'll keep you guys notified for anything that happens!! 😁
Edit #4: 30/09/23: Going back to school isn't nearly as time consuming as I thought it would be, of course I don't have nearly as much time to study as before but I still do meet my daily goal of 1 hour and 30 minutes per day of study, bare minimum. I should also mention that immersing as early as I did is a bad idea as it's very time consuming and exhausting to do anything because, well, you have to understand what you're seeing/hearing, and at a beginner level, you don't understand ANYTHING, so you don't end up retaining much. Instead, I spend *all of my free time* (carefully) watching GameGengo's vocab series, which is not the most common or even best way of getting input, but it's the only way I enjoy getting input, which does make it the best way for me because it's much easier studying when you enjoy it than not, and I already learned quite a bit from him. When I finish his series though, I think I'll just get input by watching Japanese TV Shows/playing video games in Japanese. I'll keep you guys updated!
Edit #5: 15/11/23: I'm done with N5 material, which marks my first milestone! I'm so excited to study N4 Japanese!
I've been loving studying Japanese, even more than when I started. In fact, I loved it so much that I even considered making a career out of it at one point (I would still love to, but it's unfortunately not a promising career choice because of AI, and it would require me to actually *live* in Japan for a few years, which I really don't want to do)
I'm gonna try to study for a job that I enjoy thoroughly, but that also gives me enough time and money to visit Japan during the summer. Law school certainly doesn't lead to a job like that for me, so I'll have to reconsider my options (which means I don't have the pressure of having to be as good as possible before I go to law school!)
I wish I could update you guys more often, but since I don't have unlimited characters, I think I'll start editing every time I pass a JLPT level.
Edit #6: 17/01/24: I'm done with N4 material, and that means I'm gonna immerse myself in Japanese! That has been my plan since I've been studying for N5, but I'm kind of scared to find out how it will go now that I actually have to do it 😅. My reading speed has also drastically improved, I can read any text much more comfortably than I first started (as long as it doesn't have too many kanji that I don't know), but I'm still far from native level haha.
As for you guys, I responded to most of your recent questions (I'm sorry for leaving you guys hanging!!), and I've also included my daily study plan which should be the 60th reply of this comment :)

2. When people attempt to talk to me I can pretend to not speak English
lol
Duuuude same here except for the english
I curse people secretly🙊
I want to do that:3
JeninTheTurtle I’m going definitely going’s to do this to my siblings. Except I’m not giving them anymore heads up about it. When I get good enough at 日本語, I’m just going to start speaking it all of a sudden and blow their minds.

True. Thats so good.
Grateful!! Thanks for the reminder 🙏
I am very grateful. 💗

Honto honto this is a great opportunity as well to learn Japanese.
I love how she teaches using visualization things. It really helps me a lot to remember all these hiragana words
I made up my own visualization for example ka as in karate and then I thought of the strong arm of the character so each symbol I thought of a Japanese word that was easy so I learned a simple Japanese word for each character at the same time
But it did take me some time to think of these words and visualization so not everybody will want to do that.

im 13 and im learning japanese and this account helps me a lot. thank you so much x
Any 11th grader ??
I just passed 10th boards ( Indian exam)
Now I want to learn Japanese
So that I will get a job in Japan in future
So in other words :
Hiragana : basic alphabet and sounds exactly the same
Katakana : Use for foreign words
Kanji : SSS tier difficulty words with infinity meaning
X+ difficulty where there are thousands of characters each with a different meaning and an average of 3 years to master
Most Japanese people dont even know all of em💀 how do you want me (A trilingual person excluding Japanese cuz I cant speak it yet) to learn all that Kanji shit and not forget the other 3 languages😐 IMPOSSIBLE PERIODT
I learned chinese from kindergarten or first grade all the way to sixth grade. I only know a few. The rest forgotten. Reduced to ashes
@cotton candy Nah it can be even more confusing since they share the same characters but different sounds and meaning. E.g 先生 means Mister (Mr.) or Sir. in Mandarin but Teacher in Japanese. The easiest way of learning Japanese from another language is if you learned 注音(ZhuYin), a method of writing a character via formation other than writing (strokes), 部首(BuShou) which uses the "category" of a set of characters to find the right one or 拼音(PinYin) which uses the sound to find the character. It is a common method of typing or reading used in Taiwan. Japanese is derived from Mandarin so it is easier but as long as you do not use existing knowledge, it is at most, A- tier difficulty. Hiragana and Katakana are parts that Mandarin does not have, making Mandarin the only system that has sounds which presents 10 to 100+ characters each.
Help I decided to start learning Japanese while I'm learning Spanish, Latin and Mandarin in school. Why do I do this to myself?

Yejin Unicorn It takes time but if you keep memorizing it and identifying it. Your brain will be able to process it at a faster pace. The reason for the brain that’s processing slowly, is because it lacks experience. So that’s why it’s adapting in learning.

I am so glad I stambled across this channel, It's so useful! I was trying really hard to learn hiragana and after aproximetly two months I did it, but wasn't perfect. But when learning katakana I found this channel and learned it in 1 day, and I'm not joking. I knew all the characters, everything!
I am Indian and hiragana matches with( varnamala) hindi alphabet when you pronounce them. This makes me 10 times easier to learn and relate. 🎉
How much time it takes to learn? How are u doing and from where?
Can you specify how those two alphabets match? What you say sounds interesting.
@@HansDunkelberg1 Well actually.... The letter あ and आ has the same pronunciation. And the क with an आ ( का ) is almost the same pronunciation as か and there r a LOT OF syllables that r literally the same or almost the same pronunciation
@@gsjgdkgdhksgas a tamilian, hindi was soooo easy to learn because it has basically the same letter structure as tamil. You have your vowels and your consonants and then you have combinations of them. And now with Japanese the grammar is quite similar to tamil for me and the sounds are similar as well. Very epic.

“Learn hiragana in one hour.”
Nah I think I’ll spend the next week solely on あいうえお
I have just spend a week for only two of them)
Pen and paper helps a lot,I'll just write everything over and over for like an hour and it's been helping me recognize the symbols easier,as well as some "muscle memory". Phonetics is a different story.
Ya it’s been a month now and I’ve mostly gotten the vowels down. Sorta kicking myself I waited till now to start learning. Have always had an interest in Japan (no not cause of anime). And have wanted to visit. Guess as a kid that seemed unattainable so I never bothered to learn. But now as an adult it’s doable. And I’m a believer in if you go somewhere you should at the very least know enough of the language of where you’re going to be able to communicate at a basic level.
Edit:
First week was rough, but then bought a note book and started writing the symbols and the pronunciation.
I finished both lesson 1 and 2 in a day 🤷

I have now Mastered all Hiragana characters. Arigato Risa-san 🙏🏽
Hey, great job on learning Hiragana! I have some really simple and effective beginner lessons on my channel if you ever wanted to check it out! Would be great to see you there and help you!
I have learned so much from just 13 minutes into the video, 13 min has been 1 hour of me writing and studying. I will continue watching but I am thankful for this video. I’m so excited to learn💙
“You’ve now mastered these”
*CHOTTO MATTE*

What is with your name SITI SAFIYYAH TAY BINTI MUHAMMAD DANIEL TAY Moe
lmao xDD
oi oi oi oi
I fucking died laughing my god
I’m Japanese
I respect who can speak Japanese also learn Japanese
so difficult.
Japanese has 3 alphabet hiragana katakana kanji. And we use mixing
Sorry my English is terrible
I learn English! I’ll keeping getting better
Your English is really good
Pretty good comment , there are a few grammatical mistakes yet you're completely comprehensible . Also those of us who speak English tend to make mistakes all the time as well ironically so at some point you'll come off pretty eloquent compared to native speakers if you study hard enough .
You...tryna teach me Japanese I’ll help with English...deal?
I'm proud of you, it's also great English! :)
あなたはとても英語が上手ですね！がんばってください ＼(＾▽＾)／
You're a great teacher. I'm learning quicker than I thought I would. Arigato!
I tried learning hiragana from duolingo, and although I managed to learn most of them, I missed some explanation on why they are the way they are, like the logic behind them. This video helped me a lot to complement my studies. Much love from Brazil ❤
Risa: try this long word
Me: いいえ
Lmao I love this 😂
Xdd
hahahhaha
Severly underated
lol
One important thing I wanna point out is う is mostly used as an extended/long sound of the character before, we do not pronounce them!
for example: とうきょう (Tokyo)
う (u) is not pronounced at all, it stretches the sound of と (to) and きょ (kyo).
In katakana, we use "ー" as the long sound symbal. Hope it helps yall if you got confused by the う sound in some words like me.
That helped a lot. Makes a lot more sense now!
Thanks!
ありがとう ございます
So it's basically Tokyō
KYO = きょ
KYŌ = きょう
Now i know what ー means
Thank you for making this very informative video. I found learning Hiragana from you, Risa-sensei, extremely easy and fun at the same time. Thank you and I look forward to all the other Japanese lessons you put out
Hahaha I remember watching this vid and learning hiragana for the first time 9 months ago, and now I enrolled for the N3 exam, I understand most anime and japanese vlogs, I read kanji and I laugh when I remember I used to struggle trying to read one hiragana, guys please continue pushing yourselves it is only hard in the beginning
Update jan 2024 : I PASSED THE N3 within one year, and I am taking the N2 next July :))
9 months?! You either have an incredible mind or you studied very hard, either way congrats, I hope to be in your spot one day :)
well idk if its my mind but Japanese is the 4th language that I learn so I give the credit to the experience, I just knew the best approach to learn languages, learn the basic grammar then immediately consume native content, do not waste most of the studying time on textbooks and boring stuff, yes its important to study grammar to understand what you are consuming, however most of your time should be listening and enjoying the language, and trust me when you just finish the beginner stage it becomes easier to continue @@dot2184
Me: Six minutes in and i give up
Me: watches anime afterwards
My brain: we should try learning japanese for the 2004th time this month
saaammee 😂😂
I feel you but i already finished hiragana and katakana im here because im teaching my brother and im still on kanji
@@nacht3714 how long has this taken u lmao i just wanna be able to listen to anime without having to focus on the subs

Anyone else learning Japanese because they have nothing to do cuz of self isolation....
meey
literally me, but then you get made fun of by you're parents T~T
Me too I’m tryna learn Japanese to watch anime without subtitles
@@ilaoilao3321 yeah. i'm tryna improve my english, i started korean for the 1000th time, and i want to start japanese too :D
Kevin Wu this
My reasons for learning Japanese:
-impress my friends/family
-be able to read manga before translated
-I think the language sounds really cool
-go to Japan
-sing the song “summertime” without it sounding like gibberish
-and to suffer throughout my learning
Summertime by Rainych??
@@ImTyde the summertime by rainych is actually a cover its actually from cinnamons and evening cinema
Summertime, I'm wheezing, and harehare ya too
are you still actively learning 3 months later?
ARE YOU MY LOST TWIN?
Amazing video, this is my very first attempt to learn Japanese and I'm honestly amazed how quickly I remembered the alphabet! It's when she started putting the characters together that threw me off. Definitely need to rewatch this a few times.
I appreciate ! that you show all the different writings for each hiragana
How to learn Japanese as a fluent mandarin speaker:
1: guess the meaning of the word
2: w r o n g
Some of them are pretty similar! Like the words for "sun"
@@mowsea Haha yeah they are! Even though it's confusing, I'm glad I know how to write simplified Chinese, because while not all of the words are the same it's much easier to guess the context because they have similar/same meanings! :D
I like that she teaches easier ways to remember the character. Unlike duolingo
@@MelDX Agree that's what I do too ^-^
I use Busuu to me its alot better and more effective than duolingo
Hi people.. Good to see you all learn Japanese. I am risa. ☺ by dway, i also teach Japanese at my TH-cam channel. You can check it out if you want. I hope my lessons help u😇...
@@ayooochill8889 Another Busuu user!
Not to mention duo lingo makes you use hearts like a stupid ass mobile games
I thought learning the hiragana alphabet was gonna be a neck stab but she really did explaint it very well which made me learn it
This is the best explanation I have had. I have learned more from this than I did from a week on my own with the apps.
me: "dude, these tips to try to remember the hiragana are so stupid"
me, after my tenth hiragana: "how do I write that? Energetic ninja"
Lennon Paiva but for real I still remember the ko thinking about koi fish...
Haha, so true
LMAO... Me too🤣🤣🤣
I just remember a lot of them cus they sound so ridiculous
Me : Hmm what's the hiragana for u again ...
Friend : **slipped and fall in front of me** ugh
Me : oh yeah thx man

Just make notes!!!
Easy as that!!!!!!!🤣🤣
I cri everytime, and.. I am not even learning this in 1 hour anymore, I am probably gonna finish this NEXT MONTH
i finally learned hiragana after 3 days, no one cares but im happy
Congrats dude. I learned hiragana in 1 day 15ish hrs and I think im gonna rest my brain for a couple of days before tackling Katakana. I better get ready coz' after Katakana the nightmare starts...Kanji and it's 2100+ characters
This makes me feel extremely stupid
A Milanie don't feel stupid, it's just easier for some of us. don't worry you will learn them, it might just take you a little longer
I learned it now I just feel stupid about katakana thanks though
I care you gave me hope that I can learn to thanks dude
Ah man finally finished watching the Hiragana video. Took a little while to grasp the concept of writing but now I'm fairly confident in my ability to write as well as speaking/reading characters. Seriously, thanks for making this.
Hey Flyback, great job! I also have some killer Hiragana lessons and all sorts of fun Japanese for beginners on my channel too! Would love to have you in the Udon Classroom! Come pop by sometime!
Amazing video. Can't believe this is free. i don't think learning Japanese like this gets any easier or better. Thanks a lot!
Why i want to know Japanese:
-Anime
-Flex knowing 3 idioms
-Also flex in front of my family
-To know more people
-To feel smarter somehow
-To play that one mobile game that is only in Japanese
I think I know what game u talking about lmao I’ve seen its ad like 50 times and I would love to play it but ofc it’s only in Japanese ;(
Leyyree which game is it?
lucid _ I don’t know the game cause it’s in Japanese (katakana)
Ooh, that's literally me with Twisted Wonderland 😭
Meanwhile I'm trying to learn so I can read a Light Novel because it will take years for them to translate them otherwise
Risa: Now you have mastered the first 5 characters
me: Read japanese manga right away
Lmao same
damn, this comment section is golden 😂😂😂

"imagine a boxer getting punched"
how do they come up with this?
but it works :D
It's interesting. Isn't it?😅
it kinda looks similar
Bottom line it works... the mnemonics came clutch for me and helps me remember big time
idk bro, but the stuffs free. This is literal "Value In A Bottle" or, in a video XD
SO! I am so happy. A little over 100 days ago I decided to try to learn Japanese. I first watched this video and was like what? But watching this now, I'm shook at how much I've learned. I make sure to practice a little everyday even if for just a few minutes. It's really trippy to me. I can read/write Korean - so it's like that. Just seeing characters and being able to read them literally feels like unlocking a power. Anyone reading this: KEEP GOING! ~
Thanks man❤️
So inspirational, after mastering Japanese, Balinese is next and then Korean.
@@wheresthetreasurechamber760 if you learned japanese korean will be even easier, less letters and the writing is easy. GOOD luck
thanks for inspiration
thank you so much for the motivation!!!
Thank you so much, because of this i already mastered hiragana characters for 1 hour, just like the video said, Very helpful!!!
please don't mind this just placed this so I know where to skip to... but feel free to use them

This video is amazing. I'm going to review a few more times but didn't think hiragana would be easier to learn than I thought. Thanks to this video of course. Cheers.
I've just finished this lesson fully. So proud of me😅 that's so useful for absolute beginners. Thanks❤
I forgot my own language after watching it for 10 mins
well then how good are you?
Guess you have to learn your language first... 😁
lol
Hindi Character are so much similar. Specially "Oo" character .
Loll
The way I learned it was with Duolingo. It took me about 2 weeks, and made me remember everything. Duolingo definitely isn’t the best for learning new languages, but for learning katakana and hiragana, it’s amazing. I also remembered to practice writing them on paper, and I found that this made me remember them a lot faster.
The font variations are extremely helpful!
Just stop for a moment and thing about how many insane isolated minds this FREE course will save.
Yup it's gonna help me cope with being bored/going insane because I have control over my learning curve
I finally won’t have to read subtitles anymore!!!😁🤩
@@that_random_trashcan7261 Best way to learn language is to watch with said language subtitles. That is how i learned English. And that is why i am learning how to read Japanese so i can learn it too.
