Hi, Charlie-san!
Yes; it's actually "matane!" and it's a casual "bye" or "see ya!" :)
JapanesePod101,com
Glad you enjoyed it!!
Hi, thanks for your good question!
You can use "Sore ja, mata ne." for not only when you see anyone in the same day, but also when you don't know the next time you see him/her. It's like "see you later" ^^
And you can also use ne even if you are male. Ne surely gives a softer and more casual impression but it doesn't mean you have to be female to use it ^^
Thank you

i love taking lessons in this channel i learned lots!
Me too sis

Hi,
basically, "sayounara" is "good-bye" and "ja mata" is a casual "bye!" or "see ya!".
But "mata" has a connotation of "(see you) again", and that's why those are mentioned in the lesson.
Impression about greetings can vary from person to person, so I think you can concentrate more on the politeness than whether or not seeing that person again if it sounds very complicated :)

Ditto
ore mo desu
It was actually a song created for us by one of our listeners :)
The "eehh" horn sound sound's like a party noise maker. Also it made me jump.
it made me click on another video when i was just keeping my mouse over it
i automatically turn the volume down😂
It's a song that one of our listeners made for us :)
This is better than learning a foreign language in school x)
Thanks for the videos. I took Japanese in college for several semesters, but never got past the introductory classes. This is a wonderful refresher!
"Vegeta, what does the scouter say about this rookie's JLPT?"
"It's JLPT 9000+!!!!!!"
that horn scared the shit out of me xD
Gomen'nesai!
Same here bro

Kon'nichiwa. 2 days ago I couldn't understand a single word on the videos. 2 days later with Hiroko and Risa and these great videos I understand all the words and I'm able to introduce myself,speak politely in different situations and more. Feels great!
Domo arigatou gozaimasu.
Konnichiwa Golden Calavera, (^^) that's fantastic! Sugoi ne? Happy that our videos are helping you so quickly. (^^)/ If you need any other study materials please check out www.japanesepod101.com/ Best of luck with your studies! Gambatte!! :)
Okay, please bear with me as this gets complicated :)
Let's use "arimasu" since you used it in your example. Here is how we can conjugate it in it's different negative forms:
arimasen/nai desu (present negative)
arimasen deshita/nakatta desu (past negative)
As you can see, there are two ways to say the negative forms. The second way is the informal form plus "desu". Keep in mind, though, that these are all polite forms.
We can actually never say "arimasen desu".
@mielbox2000 "watashi wa nemasu" = I sleep/I'm going to sleep.
You can use "jaa ne" or "mata ne" if you will see the other person again soon.
@xSRGDarknessx In that case, you use the formal form of the verb, which ends in "masu" (all verbs have formal and informal forms)
So you could say: "Nemasu" (I'm going to sleep)... since this verb ends in masu, this sentence is already polite. Basically what we were trying to say is that you can't say "nemasu desu", that would be incorrect.
Thank you so much for all the videos. I love the sound you made in "Hiroko's Tip".
Arigatou gosaimaisu hiroko SAN , i can speak japanese 😀😂😀👍🏾thanks again
I've been wanting to get into the Foreign Exchange Program in hopes I could go to Japan. For the past few months I've been studying so hard to learn everything I can about Japanese culture such as their history, law's, manners, language, and writing system. I've been at this so much that my head's ready to EXPLODE! If this keeps up I'll eventually not only be Tri-lingual, but also know three different writing systems.
Thank you very much!
Sincerely,

I like how the first video of the series has a peak of viewers that slowly goes down each video. Only the chosen ones with an iron will are still here. Keep it up gentlemen!
It means "I am going to sleep". You use the "o" particle when the verb has an object: for example, "watashi wa sushi o tabemasu" ("I eat sushi", where the object of the verb "eat" is "sushi"). Hope this helps!
Arigato gozaimas, sensei. Am i right?
Hi, Simon-san.
We use the particle を to mark direct object for transitive verbs. In the sentence of 私は寝ます。,
私は is the topic of the sentence. There are many particles in Japanese and each one has different meaning and function :)
JapanesePod101,com
Arigato gozaimasu! Kore wa hontōni tasuketa!
(Thanks! This really helped!)
Do itashimashite(You're welcome)!!^^
We just say "Hontōni tasukatta" instead of "Kore wa hontōni tasuketa".
It's not gramatically wrong, but it just sounds more natural to say the first one.
Thanks for saying it anyways ^^ We're glad to hear that.
Sincerely,
JapanesePod101.com
@@JapanesePod101 waaaah, thank you so much!
@maxoid101 Yes, I'd say Hiroko is a fairly common name!
@talkeniagirl "mata" means again :)
た is pronounced "ta".
There is a separate sound for "da" - だ.
@TheCudeli The ヴィ combination is a fairly new one, and therefore is not used as much as ビ. But you can feel free to use either one in your name!
@TheGoodluckkitty Mercy would be マーシー (Ma-shi-). Hope this helps!
Yes - "san" is the most polite suffix, and the one you should use when meeting people for the first time or talking to those who are older than you.
"Chan" and "kun" are used towards people you are more familiar with or those who are younger then you.
I love it when she turns the blackboard and says "taram" :)
arigato gozaimasu, Hiroko.
You can say either.
We tend to feel "sayounara" in casual conversation has too much strong connotation of "good-bye forever". It actually doesn't have such meanings in it, but "ja mata" sounds more casual and light meaninigs.
If you wish to see that person again somewhere sometime, even if you don't know when it happens, "mata" (= again) doesn't seem to be bad at all.

So I have a panel and I'm gonna speak Japanese at my convention panel and I love these tutorials the make me happy because I actually hope to go on vacation to Tokyo Japan someday with my family thank you for teaching me Japanese
Hi John-san,
that's our original music created by one of the listeners (of JapanesePod101 lessons).
Thanks.
JapanesePod101,com
I'm going to Japan over the summer and I've tried to learn Japanese before. It never worked out since I'm the type of person that likes having things explained. I've learned a lot of these words by watching anime and I want to learn a lot more! These videos help me do so arigatou gozaimasu.
@clubparty44 It simply means "Goodbye" :) But, you can't use it if you are going to see that person again later that same day.
Yes "Ja mata ne" is close to "See you later". "Ja" itself means something like "so" or "well". It's used to change the subject.
Thank you very much!
Sincerely,
JapanesePod101,com
Hi Nel,
"masu" is the ending for verbs and "desu" is ending for nouns and adjectives.
"watashi wa nemasu" can mean "I'm going to sleep". :)
JapanesePod101,com
よろしくおねがいします！
thank you Hiroko
Its fun learning Japanese with you
After watching this videos, I'm finally convinced that learning Japanese is not as impossible as I once thought! Doumo arigatou, Hiroko-sensei!
Very, very glad to hear that!
Sincerely,
JapanesePod101.com
so helped. you made japanese fun!!
You can say ja ne when saying goodbye to ppl at the same age or younger. It's a casual way to say goodbye.
To higher ranking people or older ppl, it's safe to use "sayonara" instead.
Sincerely,
JapanesePod101,com
I think the reason foreigners would want to use "desu" after a verb is because, in English and Spanish, it's normal to say "to be verb-ing." :) This must be where the impulse comes from. I ran into the same problem when I learned French which doesn't have this tense.
That might be right. Japanese people also make mistakes especially when it comes to conjugation of past tense such as past perfect form(e.g.I should have done that.) or future perfect tense(e.g. I will have finished my HW by next weekend) etc because the way we make those expressions are very different in Japanese. But I believe lots of practice will pay off!
Ganbarimasho!! (Literally means "Let's do our best")

@japanesepod101 Thank you ^^ With Pleasure. どうもありがとうございました。お褒め頂いて、光栄です。
@watchout2691 That was one of the tips in this video :) You can't add "san" to your own name. It is only used for addressing other people.
ありがとうございます and if someone wants to type in japanese follow these steps
step:1 go to control panel and select region and language
step:2 select change keyboards
step:3 click add and select japanese(japan)
there you can even select some other language or remove any language
step:4 the language bar or an icon below the screen will appear go select it and select japanese then you can select any scripts of japanese
truly appreciate your teaching. It's easy to remember and i think i can give up my class and just watch yours ;)
@arthyy Excellent explanation! :)
I love that you sound so kind -- and helps learn
Yes, that's true ;)
You're lessons help so much!
+Abby A. Thank you for studying with us!
Team JapanesePod101
I hope Hiroko enjoys doing these videos for a long time. Someday she will be too famous and important to bother with stuff like this. But until then, we are lucky to have she has a kind heart and a love of teaching.
i loved the sound u made when u flipped the board over!
@VampireknightgrlKiwi "Jaa ne" is an informal way to say goodbye that you can use with friends (kind of like "see ya!")
Not necessarily, especially if you are meeting them for the first time. If they prefer that you use informal language with them, they will let you know :)
From what I can tell, 'desu' is when someone or something has a property. Think of it as 'it is' or 'it has' and all other relevant variations. In the example in the video, if you were to put 'desu' at the end, it would be like saying 'I am sleeping am'. I hope someone else can confirm this because I am (probably quite clearly) only a beginner speaker.
@Brinah Not exactly - but it does mean that you will probably not see that person again that day.
LOL
sweet! Thank you for a lovely comment ;)

Hi,
hmmm close!! I think it was "sa yoo na ra" ;)
Hope you can enjoy learning Japanese with us!
JapanesePod101,com
Hi,
yes, you can add "ne" as is "ja mata ne" in casual conversation.
"ka" works like the question mark in English, so, I think what you're saying is correct ;)
JapanesePod101,com
These lessons are great. I'm learning (trying anyway) Hiragana, Katakana, and Kanji currently as well. It's getting easier to understand. I can't translate what I'm reading yet, but at least I can read it. LOL
Hi.
It's actually "nemasu" or "nete imasu" or "nemashita".
JapanesePod101,com
Hi,
that's right!
眠い is actually not a verb. It's an adjective :)
Adjectives take です
JapanesePod101,com
I have been taking notes through all videos. must learn.
Hi,
that's not wrong; それではまた is more formal than じゃまた, so you can actually use it in more occasions
and wider range of situations :)
When you write, it's actually with は instead of わ:)
Okay, それではまた ;)
JapanesePod101,com
@furansesuchan It means "bye!" or "see ya!"
Sugoi!!!!!You're so good at this. I mean ur way of teaching. I have learnt a lot. Arigatougozaimasu!!!!
Hi,
the music is our original :)
JapanesePod101,com
All of the videos in these channel are very formal. I am 16 and my dram is to move to Tokyo, Japan one day. But in the mean time I am trying to learn this new and intriguing language. Arigatou Gozaimasu!
Thank you for the lessons, I've been trying to learn Japanese and these lessons really help me. I want to go to Japan one day and I don't want to be left out of conversations because I can't understand what anyone is saying. Arigato gozaimasu.(sorry if I spelled that wrong)
AT Hiroko-さん おやすみ xD 。
Another mistake often made is to put だ[よ|ね|etc] after an i-adjective.
面白(omoshiroi)いです = correct
面白(omoshiroi)いだ[よ] = incorrect
Also watch out when you make it negative;
面白くない(です) and not 面白いじゃない .
This is a mistake often made with beginner students. I hope you now avoid such thing.
@fireshot598 Genki is a na-adjective, actually :)
it's funny when you made the three mistakes in one sentence.
btw, the music at the end of the video is so nice.
you are so helpful I'm greeting myself( lookin in a mirror)for when I live or visit Japan
Hi ryan,
thank you very much for the kind comment!! Yes; BIG SMILE (^-^)v
JapanesePod101,com
Arigatou JapanesePod101com!
Thanks a lot! I've been trying to learn Japanese on my own for a while now and you helped me correct my mistakes and help me improve my Japanese. ありがとう ございます
@adsa1997 No, unfortunately, you can't just switch the order like we do in English :( You can use the particle "ka" at the end of your sentence to make a question.
Watashi wa ____ desu. = I am ____.
Watashi wa ____ desu ka? = Am I ____?
Well, your English is spot on. Grammar's perfect, mate.
Thank you very much for uploading these videos
You're welcome! :)

Depends on the signage ;)
Native Japanese words can be expected to be in kanji, that sometimes goes along with hiragana (for example, on JR train station signs). Foreign words are almost always transliterated into katakana. Romaji in signs is very uncommon, afaik.
I'm learning how to speak also learned the spelling and hiragana. Thanks a lot Hiroko-san
@SuperHundu
Kun - is general used for a younger males or someone's subordinate (IE: employer to employee) however in the later case gender doesn't matter
Sama - is used when referring to someone of more important stature, like your boss or someone you really respect
Chan - Is generally used for younger girls or for someone who is close to you, however even then its mainly used for girls or siblings
Onii - Means older brother, so the chan is just meaning they are close to them
my 9th grade year started yesterday and i got japanese and i love it
Great lesson...
Thanks for making these :D
Very helpful.
@SHIAWASEsubarashii No, you can't add any suffixes to your own name (-san, -chan, -sama, etc.) :)
"Masu" doesn't mean anything on it's own. It's just the way all verbs end in Japanese in polite speech.
tabemasu = to eat
nemasu = to sleep
wakarimasu = to understand
wow i thought that learning japanese was going to be hard and boring but i was wrong these videos are great arigatou gozaimasu
i love you.!!!
Thanks! i understand it a little more in time but hanks!
