This is the clearest explanation of giving/receiving that I've heard so far ^^ Thanks! I had no idea "social distance" was so wrapped up into the grammar.
@@chouken84 When you say "Mr Abe gave flowers to you", you are feeling relative to that person so you'd say あべさんははなをくれました and from context they will know くれる does not mean you but them but in the same group (うち) If you talk to s stranger and want to say "mr abe gave flowers to you" You will always say "You received flowers from Mr Abe" because otherwise it would be too direct. You COULD theoretically say あなたにあべさんははなをあげました, but it is very very very rude and I strongly recommend avoiding it. That is perhaps why the video does not explain it. Maybe another way would be to use the passive form: あべさんにはなをあげられました but that kind of sounds as if you are annoyed by it because you "received" the action of him giving it "upon you". "Did you give Mr Abe flowers" -> あべさんにはなをあげましたか?
amazing tutorial! the way it was presented made it easy and I understood all of it、which is more than I can say for some other lessons. ありがとうございます カンジ先生!
I've just started learning Japanese (9wks). The stress of not understanding the concepts is incredible. . Thank u for yr time and effort in making learning so easy. I have learnt more than I expected to. More than that...I actually understood the material. You have my deepest gratitude. Thank you
How has it gone since you posted this 6 years ago? Are you still studying? I'm learning Spanish and Japanese at the same time! (Well, spending most of my time on Japanese currently, but trying to maintain the Spanish I know so I can focus on it more in the future).
Maybe the best explanation of 物のやりもらい in youtube, but sadly not many people realize that judging by the comment numbers... anyway a good student or teacher would appreciate it. Thank you very much for the video.
This was amazingly helpful for me! Thanks a lot! I had a hard time understanding this the first time I saw it with my teacher, but your way of explaining it and your illustrations made it quite simple.
Great lesson. I do wish you had all versions of each word available though. English, and kanji where applicable. Also, it would help if the sentence examples stay up a bit longer.
Interesting. I haven't noticed such rule even exists in my mother tongue 😅. In my sense, あげる seems kind of neutral 'to give' and くれる is for whatever benefits the speaker directly or indirectly through speaker's social group acknowledging the contribution of the subject person.
@@LL-bl8hd I think no. Usage of くれる is really subjective. It shows the appreciation and credit on the giver not just the fact 'to give'. So that's weird, if both do not share any interest with you. But yes, if I'm telling someone's story and so absorbed in his/her feeling, I would confuse it.
social distance doesnt sound like that foreign of a cultural concept, I find most cultural differences between countries tend to be seemingly negligible in practice. As human beings, we tend to get used to culture we emerse ourselves in without realizing it's any different from our own background.
I can communicate with basic words on what I want to say, but oftentimes my speech still comes off as strange to Japanese people. They still get the idea of what I'm trying to say though. I'm able to communicate what I want, basically, but I still have a long way to go.
Micah Olson Alright. That's good enough for me. I'm going to japan at the end of march, so i'm trying to finish genki 2. I already finished genki 1. Basically I just need it for restaurants, stores, etc.
Thx man, I was looking everywhere for the grammatical rules regarding ageru and kureru, great video! The concept of both verbs is fairly intuitive if you're used to the Japanese way of handling social order / usage of the correct keigo.
いいえ、いいえ!大丈夫ですよ (笑) 私はパトさんのビデオを見るときに気持ちが嬉しいになって…だからビデオはとっても便利と思います(⌒-⌒; ) I hope I said that correctly haha- anyway, thank you for your utterly helpful videos.
Wow, you made so much progress in a few months! Just 2 things, with the verb NARU, you have to modify the ending of i-adjectives (嬉しくなって), and you need the casual form before TO OMOU, so with a NA-adjective, that would be 便利だと思います ;-)
Oh, thank you! Hearing that makes me feel quite motivated. I didn't expect you to notice. Just one thing though, why do I have to say da to omoimasu instead of to omoimasu?
I remember that a few months ago you were still learning conjugations, and now you make long sentences, so yeah, obviously you made a lot of progress! As for your question, 便利 is a NA-adjective, so that means that it "needs" the verb "to be". It's actually the same as English, you cannot say "I think convenient", you have to say "I think IT IS convenient". But it is true that a lot of people tend to shorten it and take out the だ. Hope this helps :-)
The phrase "social distance" has never been more relevant than now.
Lol, that's exactly what I thought 😂
lol my thoughts axectly
Same for me lmao
true
HMMM YESSS
The best Japanese grammar vid I've ever seen on youtube.
(*^ ^*)ゞ
Same here. こちらこそ
同じいと思いまそ。とてもありがとう。

How to say "Mr. Abe gave flowers to YOU" or "Did You give Mr. Abe flowers"? This Video didn't explain!
I think japanese culture doesn't talk about speaking in 3rd person perspective that's why these rules are not given here

The infographics made this way easier than how this topic is usually taught
Top class explanation, clearer than many Japanese textbooks. Really appreciated your efforts in using social distance for vivid illustration.
this is the absolute truth!
This made so much more sense than just reading it in a book, thank you so much!
amazing tutorial! the way it was presented made it easy and I understood all of it、which is more than I can say for some other lessons. ありがとうございます カンジ先生!
Frog Statさん、ありがとうございます! ^^
Finished all your videos in one night. So much to learn. Thank you again for making these videos. Extremely helpful!
Joeyさん、ありがとうございます!^^
Wow thanks for this, nobody could explain the concept of giving and receiving to me as well as you did. This was very clear and precise!
I've just started learning Japanese (9wks). The stress of not understanding the concepts is incredible. . Thank u for yr time and effort in making learning so easy. I have learnt more than I expected to. More than that...I actually understood the material. You have my deepest gratitude.
Thank you
Shenira-san, I'm glad that my videos helped! がんばってください!^^

I was confused about these until you explained the concept via circles. Thank you so much! ♥♥♥
I speak Spanish so thank you for the captions, I'm learning English and Japanase at the same time! haha
すごい!^^
How has it gone since you posted this 6 years ago? Are you still studying? I'm learning Spanish and Japanese at the same time! (Well, spending most of my time on Japanese currently, but trying to maintain the Spanish I know so I can focus on it more in the future).
I was struggling with this concept. This video was so simple to understand. ありがとうございます。

Such a smart presentation of this concept!!!
Great lesson.
I do wish you had all versions of each word available though. English, and kanji where applicable. Also, it would help if the sentence examples stay up a bit longer.

I think you have a gift to simplify what others can’t:)
2020 and this video is still very useful. Thank you very much.
This is some good stuff right here!
Things must be explained simply like in this video. This was really helpful.有難うございます・
The flow charts are very helpful, thank you.
wow thanks for the lesson!
Interesting. I haven't noticed such rule even exists in my mother tongue 😅.
In my sense, あげる seems kind of neutral 'to give' and くれる is for whatever benefits the speaker directly or indirectly through speaker's social group acknowledging the contribution of the subject person.
So interesting! I'm curious, do you ever use くれる when both the giver and receiver are outside your family/circle?
@@LL-bl8hd I think no. Usage of くれる is really subjective. It shows the appreciation and credit on the giver not just the fact 'to give'. So that's weird, if both do not share any interest with you. But yes, if I'm telling someone's story and so absorbed in his/her feeling, I would confuse it.
Amazing demonstration so that it could easily understand!
Thank you!
Arigatou sensei
Well explained !
Please come back ! I need a video on potential form . Sobs

We watched this together in class today. Thanks for explaining everything so clearly. :)
I've been studying Japanese for around 8 months now, passed N4 and still have trouble with this form sometimes. Thank you for posting this.
Micah Olson how were you at talking with natives after passing n4?
I can communicate with basic words on what I want to say, but oftentimes my speech still comes off as strange to Japanese people. They still get the idea of what I'm trying to say though. I'm able to communicate what I want, basically, but I still have a long way to go.
