    This was a problem for me because when I learned Japanese in school, we generally only learned "polite" forms. Eventually some Japanese friends told me to stop using the "polite" form because it felt like I wasn't trying to be friendly. That was when I learned that the "polite" form is not actually the most "polite" depending on the context!

    • @KaleunMaender77
      @KaleunMaender77 ปีที่แล้ว +34

      Technically, we shouldn't be using "you" in English with our family and friends. "You" is meant to be exclusively second-person plural, but through that, in English, it is also second-person polite. As for second-person informal, we should be using "thou" and adding "-st" to the verb forms - much in the same vein as is done in German. But that's a story someone else has probably done a video on 😅 But pretty much every other language in the world defines a formal and an informal register clearly. It could be the grammatical person (as with the Indo-European languages), or it could be particular verb structures (as with Japanese and Korean). It is quite the rabbit hole one can dive into.

      ​@@KaleunMaender77The people define and mold the language, not the other way around, it changes with time and adapts to the people. Just because the roots of a language has different structures and rules doesn't mean we are "technically supposed" to be using archaic modes that are obsolete. Or that we "shouldn't use" incredibly common and natural words such as "you". According to who? Why shouldn't we? That doesn't make any sense. If what came before is always considered the "way it should be" every English speaker would have to go back to an English that was so archaic and so germanic that it is pretty much a different language and studied as such. You wouldn't be able to understand any of it, much less read it. And me, along with every other romance language should have to revert to latin.

      The Vantage Point of Time
      The commandments of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are clear, giving insight for living.
      (Psalm 19:8)
      When God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses, He included this one: “Honor your father and mother. Then you will live a long, full life in the land the Lord your God is giving you”
      (Exodus 20:12)
      God tells children to honor their parents, even when they say those four words that no child likes to hear: “Because I said so.” This statement is usually followed up with something along these lines: “You’ll understand one day.”
      Sometimes God says the same to us. We might say, “Lord, I don’t really get all these things You say in Your Word, and I don’t like all those commandments You’ve written down. Why are they even there? Why do I have to follow them?
      And God replies, “Because I said so.”
      One day we’ll get it. One day we’ll understand. And we don’t even have to wait until we’re in Heaven. After we’ve lived a few years, we see how human lives unfold. We see what happens when people obey God’s Word, and we see what happens when they disobey it.
      As the children of Israel prepared to enter the Promised Land, Moses stood before them and made this statement: “Today I am giving you a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster. For I command you this day to love the Lord your God and to keep his commands, decrees, and regulations by walking in his ways”
      (Deuteronomy 30:15-16)
      Then he added, “If you do this, you will live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you and the land you are about to enter and occupy” (verse 16)
      God was saying to them, “Follow My commands and your life will be blessed.” If we will read God’s Word and do what it says, then we will ultimately discover how much better life goes.

    "But basically, when you're already on casual terms, there's no going back to keigo again"
    Oh god I can imagine how awkward it is to do that 🥲 My language has a similar concept. At a former job, my boss at some point wanted us to use casual speech with her (she was the type to want to be "cool" with the young people) but it felt so wrong because of course, to me she was a person of authority who I couldn't just talk casually to. So by the next day, I just automatically reverted back to using our version of keigo, and she was incredibly offended that I went back to polite speech even after she had already offered me to use casual speech. I get why, it felt like I was rejecting her, I guess...but I just couldn't overlook our relationship and act so friendly with a superior.

    • @4rg3s
      @4rg3s ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Wow, these cultural aspects are totally new to me. My first language has more formal and less formal forms than English but people have no problem switching them around.
      We have certain barriers between written language and spoken language but rarely people would complain about someone being more polite than the current situation requires.
      But people will feel weird if some native speakers started speaking like reading a letter or book or giving a speech.
      Human languages are fantastic because they are linked to our emotions.

    I clicked on this video because I was interested in the friend's reaction, but I think I finally understood how different keigo and tameguchi are. I've been taking Japanese classes since spring 2022 and it feels so far from reality when the teacher tells us about it. Hearing it like this (and also the friend answering in "normal" speech) made me feel like I finally understood it.
    Also made me appreciate how odd one of my fave anime characters must sound to his friends as he always uses keigo. Very interesting

      Personally I'd rather see more videos about casual speech because it's often not mentioned in a lot of textbooks or other resources, which bothers me because as a foreigner/learner, it's a lot more useful than keigo. Nearly every Japanese person I met quickly switched to casual speech. Some taught me a lot of slang words you would NEVER see in a textbook, but if you listen to conversations between close friends, you'll hear them. Plus they don't expect you to know keigo if you're learning. For keigo most learners can get by with desu/masu endings and o/go prefixes on certain words.

    I have the reverse problem: when first learning Japanese, I *only* knew keigo and very little tameguchi. I wanted very much to be less formal with my friends but it was a little difficult. I still have a lot to learn!

      I totally relate to this! It is indeed so difficult to switch to informal so suddenly. It feels like you don't know what your position is and how to act. At least that's how I feel when somebody older than me asks me to stop being so formal. It takes a while to get used to it. I wonder why we react like that. 🤔

    Love your videos, glad to see you again! I’ve been taking Japanese studying seriously and made some friends online to help me. The biggest challenge is learning how to express myself in Japanese. Or trying to figure out what a friend is meaning to say. The nuance is difficult to grasp.

    • @SantosoWijaya
      @SantosoWijaya ปีที่แล้ว +4

      Especially in Japanese culture where "reading the air" is part of a social skill that gets taught from a young age. So many things are left unsaid and you are expected to grasp them by reading between the lines. It's giving me social anxiety haha.

      The Vantage Point of Time
      The commandments of the LORD are right, bringing joy to the heart. The commands of the LORD are clear, giving insight for living.
      (Psalm 19:8)
      When God gave the Ten Commandments to Moses, He included this one: “Honor your father and mother. Then you will live a long, full life in the land the Lord your God is giving you”
      (Exodus 20:12)
      God tells children to honor their parents, even when they say those four words that no child likes to hear: “Because I said so.” This statement is usually followed up with something along these lines: “You’ll understand one day.”
      Sometimes God says the same to us. We might say, “Lord, I don’t really get all these things You say in Your Word, and I don’t like all those commandments You’ve written down. Why are they even there? Why do I have to follow them?
      And God replies, “Because I said so.”
      One day we’ll get it. One day we’ll understand. And we don’t even have to wait until we’re in Heaven. After we’ve lived a few years, we see how human lives unfold. We see what happens when people obey God’s Word, and we see what happens when they disobey it.
      As the children of Israel prepared to enter the Promised Land, Moses stood before them and made this statement: “Today I am giving you a choice between life and death, between prosperity and disaster. For I command you this day to love the Lord your God and to keep his commands, decrees, and regulations by walking in his ways”
      (Deuteronomy 30:15-16)
      Then he added, “If you do this, you will live and multiply, and the Lord your God will bless you and the land you are about to enter and occupy” (verse 16)
      God was saying to them, “Follow My commands and your life will be blessed.” If we will read God’s Word and do what it says, then we will ultimately discover how much better life goes

    I can't speak Japanese but I found this interesting and I like being able to somehow make comparisons with my language. In Italian too the polite form is usually used with people we don't know, so it's both to show respect (especially towards elders) and because the person is not close with the other. While we use the informal form with friends. Every situation is different though, depending on the person. For example some people tend to talk informally no matter the situation and the person they refer to. Some people don't like this, while some others are okay with it, so it's not really a "strict rule".

    • @veronica7673
      @veronica7673 ปีที่แล้ว

      Interesting. In Germany, even if someone is thrice my age, if they talk to me informally, I'm replying in the same manner. Same goes the other way around. (Of course it's different when there's some hierarchy going on, like teachers with students for example. The example I gave applies to random people on the street tho)

And my friend's father said I also no need to use keigo to them because we are like family. But I still use keigo sometimes to respect them 😅 just like when i say thank you, i say "arigatou gozaimasu" then they'll start to laugh 😅

    Its good to see you are back.
    This situation reminds me of "Bleach" Manga where Mizuiro starts trolling Keigo by speaking formally to him.
    I guess if two people have been apart for a while or if for some other reason the relationship between two people could change. For example if one person become the others boss or supervisor then there maybe changes. I know that this can be strange in a Martial arts setting where you may have a senior student or even a Sensei who Younger by Age than a student, or a younger Student inheriting a position through the Iemoto tradition.

I've talked with Japanese people in the streets of 東京, and it's a real struggle. But this young man, I feel like he has presented every word, distinctly, on a silver platter, and with a bow, so that I can understand what he is saying. Absolutely strange and amazing.
