this was fun to watch Yuta! thank you☺️ also ozamassa sounds like ojamashimasu because the za and ja kinda sound the same to me if slurred😅 and massa feels like a more slurred version of mashimasu
Yuta confusing people again. As a foreigner living in Japan, Yuta is wrong. I would really avoid learning learning Japanese with him. I tried learning, but everything he taught me was incorrect when I applied it at work. It made me look like a fool.
It's fun to see you use Terrace House clips to provide examples. My Japanese teacher used to tell us during classes that watching Terrace House with captions was a good way to improve our Japanese vocabulary. It's a great show to observe casual speaking patterns.
@@maknyc1539 Mostly because it is unscripted and therefore more true to life. People on Terrace House speak casual Japanese without hanging onto a script, so you get a better picture of how native Japanese might sound. It is also a quite enjoyable show and easily accessed (it was on Netflix in my region for a while).
With the "ussu" and "waa" I feel like you can just make any noise to acknowledge the other person. As long as you're cute like Yuta you can probably pull it off.
I believe ozamassu is actually a contraction of ojamashimasu, and given the context I would assume its being used in a somewhat unconventional circumstance just like its a somewhat unconventional phrase. Probably a local dialect or even just a character specific form of speech.
My husband and I went to Japan in April 2019 for 30 days, and I was studying Japanese with Rosetta Stone. And while the program was good, I also found out if I really wanted to learn how to speak Japanese in real conversation, I should watch shows like Terrace House. Fast forward to us being in Japan, and while we were in Osaka, my husband and I were staying at an AirBnB. We were grabbing bikes to ride over to Universal Studios and the owner of the place we were staying at was there. He said “hello” to us in English but when we faced him I said “ohayogouzaimasu, ogenki desu ka?” The man almost dropped the garbage bag he was holding. He then told me he was shocked I knew a little Japanese and had learned phrases, greetings, numbers, etc. He said that most tourists when they come to Japan they don’t learn much Japanese, only words like hello and and good bye. Which to me blows my mind. If you are visiting a country with a different language, you should at least learn a little of the language I feel. Any time I spoke words that weren’t konnichiwa or sayonara, the locals would look at me in shock.
Agree. It is part of the reason americans and other native english speakers seem rude and or presumptuous to people from other countries. Most don’t do the effort to learn and expect to be spoken to in english everywhere.
@@ElJosher yes and they straigt up talk in english without asking first :D But all those comments really make me want to learn japanase for real. It's so cool!
@@ElJosher It is the international standard language of choice, people know that educated people around the world probably know some english. Sure if you intend to live or work long term in a country, you should try to learn the language, but if you're not planning on being there long term, maybe it isn't worth the effort. Learning a language takes thousands of hours, if you're only going to be in a place for a few days or weeks it's completely reasonable to decide not to invest that much time.
@@TheJadeFist While I agree on the part that you shouldn't learn a language bottom up just for a lil touristy visit necessarily, I would'nt say that staying in the country for a long time should be the only motivation. As we saw in the video, there's just so much media out there worth checking out in Japanese that you can basically surround yourself with Japanese all the time, given you have at least a mobile phone. If you then also happen to have Japanese friends or live near a big city that will most definitely have all kinds of foreigners in them, including Japanese, you can start using the lamguage in a native manner right away. Thirdly, studying a language and putting in the effort just for the heck of it, because you have matured enough as a person to embrace the struggles of everyday life and learning, instead of constantly trying to run away from them or seeking excuses like "realistically, i won't need it anyways" is just something you don't want to miss out on and that will benefit you greatly, even if you don't see it in the beginning. Unfortunately, one can only experience this by starting to do stuff and thus it is difficult to explain to someone who is still trying to look for excuses, in my experience. Dedication is a key ingredient in this. The rewarding feeling of superiority you reap after any kind of hard work, whether you consider them "useful or not in a worldly sense", is immense and not to be underestimated. It teaches you more than simply a language. It makes you a grown up.

This channel finally made learning Japanese effortless and fun for me. And I get real improvement thanks to all your explanations on semantics and grammar. Now I only wish you had a clone with the same channel in Korean xD
Hi I'm from Ghana 🇬🇭 and we speak Twi. It sometimes sounds like Japanese which makes it really easy for me to understand Japanese within a short time. 🙏❤️どうもありがとうございます
Nyahallo!🌸 Which Miko has said was directly inspired by Yahallo I haven’t started following other agencies so I don’t know if they do it too, but custom greeting catchphrases are such an icon of Hololive. Konpeko, Konyappi, Konkonkitsune, Oayo, even Konfauna and Kronichiwa in EN.
I'm a 6'2" burly dude with a full beard, half-sleeve tattoo, tattoos on my fingers, an "industrial" piercing in my ear (the same one Marin-chan from SonoBisque has) and I use "Yahhooo" as my standard greeting when talking to Japanese friends. Had no idea it sounds kind of feminine in Japanese :D Btw, loving all the Terrace House clips lately. I miss that show a lot, but considering how they ran stuff behind the scenes, I'm not too sad it's gone now.
@@Othman1992on naaah but I was thinking about something like "Lahooo" - you know how gyaru's sometimes turn "senpai" into "paisen"? Same thing, but still retain the "Yaho" aspect. :D
It's interesting how Japanese has many ways to greet someone just as much as how many ways to say "I" or "you" there are. One time I mentioned to someone on Twitter how I worked hard until midnight, she said お疲れ様でした("otsukaresamadeshita", Thank you for your hard work!). Sometimes I type おはよう、おはようございます(rare), ヤッホー, よー, こんにちは, and a few more.
I just went to Japan for the first time and when I was in the airport, I heard お疲れ様です like every 30 seconds. I only knew it to mean something like "thank you for your hard work"
"Wattsu appu", that's a good one. I think Yuta can pull off Yappi, haha. So many ways to greet. The ones that appear later on in the video are especially amusing. Great explanation, Yuta.
As an exchange student in Japan who largely hangs out with the baseball club, I feel オッスwith every fiber of my being. I even use it more than お疲れ right now lol.
This video explains the myriad of different custom greetings that Hololive members have, and why they're not particularly strange for anime characters to say.
Great vid! I'm a man nd I've been greeting people with 6:03 or "Yaw" (which is another way of saying "Yo") for years now so this was an interesting watch lol fun fact: I'm from Oregon which I've heard (geographically) has quite a few similarities to Japan
dang, I commend you for being able to search and find all these examples. I was just trying to explain "otsukare" to a friend of mine and this video is a great resource to point to. "omatase" is another good one too.
5:48 hilichurls say this to me all the time 6:56 sounds more like a contraction of ojamashimasu to me but idk personally i greet all my friends with "yo" or a more extended "yooo" anime also invented nyanpasuu
i really like your way to teach japanese can you please make a playlist for your teaching videos so they will be easily accesible without searching over all the videos one by one😅 a ri ga to u😊
Hey Yuta, I'm curious why the first やっほー (4:30) and 2nd ヤッホー (4:50) were subtitled in hiragana then katakana, respectively. Are these just interchangeable or does that choice serve some purpose?
katakana is used "for emphasis", it's kind of like italic but the meaning is more subtle and sometimes it has no meaning. it depends on the mood of the person who typed it.
I find it interesting that in Japanese you can basically just invent your own greeting lol. If someone came up to me in English and said this word I’d never heard of before that made no sense, I would be very confused, but in Japan they just accept it.
Are よ and どうも actually used by native Japanese speakers? I kind of ended up defaulting to them if not using a specific greeting like お邪魔します or おはようございます, for example when saying hi in a passing or when greeting a clerk at a store... But at the same time I can't remember if I've ever heard a native use them.
Great! We also use "hei" in Finnish. Nice to know that I can fall back to it if I'm in a tight spot and cannot make up what greeting to use 😀+25 survival points achieved! Thanks man.
Hei is Nordic or Scandinavian for hi. Very common. Also translates from Dutch and we use it here in Ireland ( English ) as a casual greeting more usual in an unexpected meeting or third party arrival. "Hey, how's it going?" Usually you don't answer more than hey or hi or good to see you or even "how's it going" back to them. Otherwise we will be talking about covid or tired or needing holdiays, jobs etc. and in reality we want to get on with whatever is actually happening. Learning Japanese is the high jump of languages. Every time you turn around the bar just went up. The only thing that gives me confidence is that most Japanese fail to read the scrambled Morse code squiggles too.
Interesting. Someone may have already pointed this out, but in English, an old/quaint way to say ‘bye!’ is ‘toodeloo’, which is very similar to the ‘tutturu’. Maybe it’s wasei eigo, used to greet as opposed to saying farewell? Also, the way the character says it is the way ‘toodeloo’ would have been said: in a cutesy way with one’s voiced raised, across a space. It’s like, ‘byeeeeeee!’
Hi guys and girls. Bit off topic but I need some advices either from natives or persons who've been to Tokyo already. Next year I'm going to visit Tokyo and surrounding area, but definitely only an urban sightseeing focused on landmarks, museums, festivals etc. Would you rather visit Tokyo in Golden Week or let's say August (which some people have recommended to me)? It's going to be ~10 day long trip
honestly these were the words I would get constantly wrong in duolingo (it's why I dropped it) like it was less me getting it right and more "what does duolingo want me to write"
I suppose it's the same meaning as using hello in English. People don't typically use hello when they meet some unfamiliar cuz it either sounds like you're trying to grab their attention which could be a little too harsh or it could sound like a question. Hello have I met you before? Words like what's up, hi are typically use more to feel casual and more straight to the point.
It's not like that nobody uses hello and when the tone is done right it could sound like a casual greeting, but it's just that other words are more convenient to use and have a closer relationship. Usually wouldn't people say the word hello it's always going to be generally a friendly vocabulary. You said it when you're happy and wants to greet someone, or when you want to grab their attention. For example hello when used with a question mark in the end is usually when you feel like you've seen that person but you're not exactly sure. From my understanding and experience people use this word more when they want to ask if someone's there. Let's say you are in side of cave and you thought you heard someone spoke. Then in that circumstance you would say hello with an exclamation mark of course to try to grab their attention and wants them to come towards you.
Wait a sec, the syllable 'tu' isn't even native to Japanese!! You either turn it into tsu, or in this case write 'to' with a small u I didn't know this back when I heard the tutturuu but now this is super strange to realize
Atsu Eigo says 'konnichiwa' is sometimes contracted to just 'chwa.' If you used 'Otsukare sama desu' when greeting a NEET, would it be considered a sarcastic insult?
Not sure, but isn't the "yahou" just a different way of saying "yahoo" or "yoohoo"? As for the "tutturu", it sounds a lot like the ending sound of the trumpet for the cavalry call in the U.S.
Excuse me, Yuta. I used to think that the deeper the meaning of a word, the more difficult the kanji. It turned out not to be so. Yuta, have Japanese people ever felt the hassle of writing kanji?

I don't think there's a single country I've been to yet where "Yo" doesn't work. When in doubt, I always just say yo.
“hey” is also really great to cover up when you don’t remember someone’s name!
Hey Yuta, I'm curious why the first やっほー (4:30) and 2nd ヤッホー (4:50) were subtitled in hiragana then katakana, respectively. Are these just interchangeable or does that choice serve some purpose?
katakana is used "for emphasis", it's kind of like italic but the meaning is more subtle and sometimes it has no meaning. it depends on the mood of the person who typed it.
So is konnichiwa only used when you first meet someone? I don't see it used any other times.
interesting, "トゥットゥルー" sounds a lot like "toodle-oo" which is a kind of an oldfashioned or quirky way to say goodbye in english
I find it interesting that in Japanese you can basically just invent your own greeting lol. If someone came up to me in English and said this word I’d never heard of before that made no sense, I would be very confused, but in Japan they just accept it.

V nice effort Jutta
I saw おざまっす being used as a contraction of おはようございます。
Also, what about "よっ" as a greeting?
I learnt all of those in my japanese class at university. I guess having actual people teach you has its upsides
yahharo is my new fave ❤️
7:52 and that Uissu also lol, reminds me of the flirty boys trying to chat up Naagatoro and her friends
動画内で出てきた「おざまっす」は「お疲れ様です」からではなく「おはようございます」を意図的に/偶発的にむにゃむにゃと拍を縮めるような形で発音した結果の言葉だろう。
ここで注意したいのは発話者が上記のように意図的に意識的に「おざまっす」という五個の音を発しているかなのか、当人としては「おはようございます」の意識で発声したのだがむにゃむにゃと言った結果「おざまっす」的な音として外見的には聞こえたかで現象としては異なるという点である。
例えば「ありがとうございます」を略して「あざす」または「あざっす」というものがあるが、これも元々は「ありがとうございます」をなるべく一息で省拍的に言おうとしてむにゃむにゃした音になったものが結果として「あざす/あざっす」に近い音として聞こえたというもので、これが頻繁に使われるので形式として１つの言葉として「あざす/あざっす」が明確に文字として採用されたというものである(もちろんスラングとしてではあるが)。
さらに言うと「うす/うっす」や「おす/おっす」もこの流れだろう。
「おざまっす」はまだ大多数に文字として共通認識されているほど確立はしていないが、今後していくかもしれないし、しないまま終わる可能性もある。
いずれにせよこの動画内では発話者は意識的に「おざまっす」と言ったのか偶発的にそうなったのかは不明である。
8:10 Sounds like something Dutch people say: Ja, Hallo!
this is a great help!
Tutturu is the perfect ending. A global way to say hello.
Is ちわっす used much? I learned it from Kanjiya Shihori's character in キミ犯人じゃないよね but that was a long time ago.
2:47 sounds like the dude shortened it down all they way to "oresu 「おれす」"
Interesting. Someone may have already pointed this out, but in English, an old/quaint way to say ‘bye!’ is ‘toodeloo’, which is very similar to the ‘tutturu’. Maybe it’s wasei eigo, used to greet as opposed to saying farewell? Also, the way the character says it is the way ‘toodeloo’ would have been said: in a cutesy way with one’s voiced raised, across a space. It’s like, ‘byeeeeeee!’
Tutturu kinda sounds like a kind of fanfare that announces the coming of someone important.
Sorry, I was distracted by being able to read the thumbnail. Never fails to amaze me when I can actually read something in katakana or hiragana.
Trying to learn Japanese and I fr just filled 3 1/2 pages of BASIC greetings. goddamn I'm in for a ride
8:10 so that is where Mikochi's nyaharoo come from.

Hello have I met you before? Words like what's up, hi are typically use more to feel casual and more straight to the point.
It's not like that nobody uses hello and when the tone is done right it could sound like a casual greeting, but it's just that other words are more convenient to use and have a closer relationship. Usually wouldn't people say the word hello it's always going to be generally a friendly vocabulary. You said it when you're happy and wants to greet someone, or when you want to grab their attention. For example hello when used with a question mark in the end is usually when you feel like you've seen that person but you're not exactly sure. From my understanding and experience people use this word more when they want to ask if someone's there. Let's say you are in side of cave and you thought you heard someone spoke. Then in that circumstance you would say hello with an exclamation mark of course to try to grab their attention and wants them to come towards you.
i never been to japan...but in anime a lot of times i wonder why they say good morning way way more than saying hello
Bro, the short clip from Stein's Gate got my emotions moving.
an idol i follow uses やっぽ instead of やっほ, haha. he makes it work! maybe you would enjoy saying it too, Yuta.
Wait a sec, the syllable 'tu' isn't even native to Japanese!!
You either turn it into tsu, or in this case write 'to' with a small u
I didn't know this back when I heard the tutturuu but now this is super strange to realize
Tutturu is the best one for sure. No wonder our "maddo scientisto" leaped through time so many times to save that girl.
That Yappi Man Yuta
Ive heard ussu used in Japanese martial arts movies
Atsu Eigo says 'konnichiwa' is sometimes contracted to just 'chwa.' If you used 'Otsukare sama desu' when greeting a NEET, would it be considered a sarcastic insult?
くるみちゃん かわいい
The arena robot in Ryu Ga Gotoku 7 burned "Yappi" in to my brain
No mention of Domo? Also Yuta is looking extra handsome in this video, the beard and haircut really suit you.
when that guy said ozamassu, i think that was ozamasimasu
Wow, when I thought I had Greetings covered 😂
Not sure, but isn't the "yahou" just a different way of saying "yahoo" or "yoohoo"? As for the "tutturu", it sounds a lot like the ending sound of the trumpet for the cavalry call in the U.S.
my favorite anime greeting is nyanpasu.
Me an intellectual: "Ossu!"
Excuse me, Yuta. I used to think that the deeper the meaning of a word, the more difficult the kanji. It turned out not to be so.
Yuta, have Japanese people ever felt the hassle of writing kanji?
