I never had a Japanese learning video that ended with a cliffhanger.
what does "cliffhanger" mean?
LOL i was thinking the same thing
@@hinami2781 cliffhanger means leaving someone in suspense. It means ending a conversation without full and complete closure.
Khanji link sir, why did you stop make videos. Plz come back 😭😭
very clean explanations! thanks!
Before I found your channel studying Japanese grammar was a very painful experience. But you just helped me review an hour long lesson in five minutes in BETTER detail than I got the first time around. 本当に天才です！ありがとうございます！
Short, clear and informative! 教えてくれてありがとうございます！
Yuki-san, thank you for your comment! You are absolutely right! What I explain at the end of the video is actually the difference between tadôshi & jidôshi. It's just that I chose not to use those terms to avoid confusion, since many people don't know what are transitive/intransitive verbs. I gave more details on my website ;-)
Great lesson, very concise. ありがとうございます
教えてくれてありがとうございます！
I really like your teaching.
You r the only Japanese channel I will be following.
Arigato gosaimas
Your lessons and website are great! Thank you so much.
So clear thank you!
This is very helpful! Thanks so much for creating this lesson. :)
please come back
very good explanations, they stick in one's mind, thanks...
It makes sense that する becomes させる in the causative form, doesn't it?
The japanese verb for "to do" used to be す, which means back then, its causative form was perfectly regular :)
it was? I didnt know that
@@thomasalberto613, It doesn't just explain this, but also a whole lot of other conjugations of する such as します、した、して, where the し comes seemingly out of nowhere.
Thank you 🙏. Very clear explanation.
You have to use them in full sentences! It's important to know the rule, but the brain strengthens memories when you make "meaningful association", so try to “link” it with a personal experience. In the case of the “causative” form, think about something you made/let someone do recently, and try to say it in Japanese! がんばってください！
Thank you so much from Bottom of my heart and your website is awesome.
Ah, thank you!
I AM A VISUAL LEARNER AND YOU HAVE MADE THESE CONJUGATIONS SO STRAIGHT FORWARD, I AM AMAZED. YOUR METHOD SHOULD BE USED UNIVERSALLY. I AM SERIOUS MANY THANKS, Muffy FROM OZ (AUSTRALIA)
Very much helpful 💖💖💖💖
This is just so perfect! My God why I didn't know about this
マットさん、ありがと～！^^
Awesome dude! thank you very much! looking forward to learning more ^^
in my textbook, they are differentiated by jidoushi and tadoushi.
tadoushi will use particles > person +"ni" + noun + "wo" + causative verb.
jidoushi will use particle > person + "wo" + causative verb.
then there's status rules of using the above grammar structure, followed by causative + kureru/ageru/morau/sashiageru/itadaku/kudasau
and causative + te-form + itadakimasenka (request/will)
but watching your vid for the first time, it helped me alot. Thanks!
Rowanroyさん、こんにちは。Just one question: what is your current level in Japanese? If you are a beginner, please start with my other videos (verb groups --> masu form --> nai form...etc). If you are not sure about the order in which you should watch them, check out my website! Japanese language looks like "building blocks", and I'm sure you will get used to conjugating verbs very soon if you practice regularly ;-) がんばってください！
Wow this even made me realize the difference between ru and u verbs
Could make a video on collocations with grammar?
I noticed that the conjugated syllable has the same consonant as the original syllable, and all the vowels changed from u to a:
Mu to Ma
Bu to Ba
Nu to Na
Su to Sa
Gu to Ga
Ru to Ra
Tsu to Ta
U to Wa (Exception)
From the "Handbook of Japanese Grammar" by Masahiro Tanimori (Tuttle Language Library) and they add this (confusing) information to the stuff so well presented here on YT. From page 311 (3rd ed) , "Some verbs may be changed into causative form by the following rules and conjugate as consonant-stem verbs (Group1). These verbs then become transitive verbs and must take an object (either stated or implied). Consonant-stem (Group 1) verbs: Replace the final -u with asu. When the final syllable is u, as in iu or kau, replace it with -wasu. Iru- and era-verbs: Replace the final -ru with -sasu. Irreegula (Group 3) suru - sasu, kuru - sasu. (ignore the line if it is still crossing out stuff here, it is YT)
I don't understand what this means yet. Hopefully I'll get there but first I have to start practicing the stuff on this YT video. Thanks Mr Kanji-link san.
Narutoさん, I'm glad this helped! =)
So how to make the distinction between making someone do something (i.e. forcing him to do it) and letting him do something (i.e. allowing him)?
do you have any aap where i can learn the basic verb which i can change to polite forms or change into past by myself ...kuru suru
It also has a polite form: させます.
so.. kind of like imperative form?
how do you differentiate whether the person is MAKING/FORCING to do something or LETTING?
is there's conjugation of intransitive verb to transitive verb.
Does this work as "Could You"? Or could you would be Te form plus Kudasai?
Can you use this to say "he made her do this" or is this only for saying things that I made or let another do?
やめさせるでもやめらせるでも通じる
Thank you very much~
i come across "sasete" and "sarete" sometimes What do they mean?
Cherieさん、ありがとうございます！ "sasete" is the TE form of "saseru", which I explain in this video (to make/let someone do something, verb "suru"). If you need more information on the TE-form, watch my other video: th-cam.com/video/475X4-Ujk1Y/w-d-xo.html . Now the second one is the TE-form of "sareru", which means "to be done something". This is called the passive form. I'll add it to my to-do list!
excellent videos ;) do you have any more planned for the channel ?
Monogramadiktさん、ありがとうございます。Of course I have more videos planned, but this year has been really busy. がんばります！^^
KANJI - Link i know how it feels ;) thanks for the work you have shared here, very helpful ;)
Is this the same as imperative?
BlackHeavenSymphonyさん, do you have anything specific in mind?
I love your lessons however i don't quite understand the meaning of this form. To me making someone do something and letting someone do something are two entirely different things. They have in common that in both scenarios one person has the power to decide the action of another person but allowing vs. forcing are very different to me. How does one tell what is meant when the causative form is used?
Could somebody tell me an example sentence with the word 読む in the causative form?

あなたに明日本棚の上の本を読ませる。
【あなたにあしたほんだなのうえのほんをよませる】
“Tomorrow, I’ll let you read the book on top of the shelf.”
Oh my God,i'm going to cry... And I thought Kanji was going to be tough. Does any one have some tips for conjugation? It just seems like there's so much.
Read more? English is way more complicated
So for (さ)せる would the polite form be (さ)せます ？
Luca13XDさん, absolutely, all the verbs become group 2 verbs, so you just have to drop the ending る if you want to conjugate them!
I understood the lesson but I really didn't understand the particles
Thank you
+Mohammed Bajaber The teacher spoke about the transitive verbs (with an object), and intransitive verbs (without objects).
So, in the first case you tell the kid "to read the book(the object)" that's why he uses "kodomo NI"to give him the order.
On the other case, you tell the kid "to go to school", then the kid turns into the "object"...That's how I could understand it.
+Mohammed Bajaber
For help of the particles, think of the sentences as ones a person will say in a conversation. Normally in Japanese, when the subject is stated in a prior sentence, it and the "ha" particle are not repeated in a new sentence if said subject is the same as before, kind of like how we sometimes do in English with calling things previously said as "It" but the second party still understanding what we're talking about.
Let's use the first sentence about the child reading a book as an example,
"(Watashi ha) kodomo ni hon wo yomaseru."
Translated, this becomes;
"(I) to the child the book **(will) make to read."
Grammatically correct English - "I **(will) make the child read the book."
**Verbs can mean present and future tense in some cases when in their base form
Something that helped me understand it better was putting the verb in its past tense, turning the sentence into...
"(Watashi ha) kodomo ni hon wo yomasemashita." (Informally - "(Watashi ha) kodomo ni hon wo yomaseta.")
Translated, this becomes,
"(I) to the child the book made to read."
Grammatically correct English - "I made the child read the book."
I hope that helped out at all! :)
Is hairu (to enter) a verb type 1 ? If it's true, so will it be hairasaseru ?
I think it will be "hairaseru" since the casual negative of "hairu" is "hairanai.
what if you just use the -te form of the verb and attach saseru?

For example since all the conjugated verbs are group 2, you can say 買わせる 【かわせる】and make the て form of it: 買わせて 【かわせて】
I think what you said could be done however, I think this is easier.
Thank you so much for this clear explanation. I was almost about to suicide on a sentence I had to answer for my homework today combining Keigo + Causative form ( which I did not learn yet ). Cheers.
Ah- i find conjugations the most trickiest >.< how do you memorise them all?
How did you go from 6 years ago? I'm actually curious!
また私を泣かせるのね🎵
Um...basic stuff perhaps?
So, when do I know whether the "to let" or the "to make" meaning is meant?
Pk4En9さん、コメントをありがとうございます。It actually depends on the context, so there is no rule to know whether it is “to make” or “to let”. For example, if I say 子供を遊ばせる (kodomo wo asobaseru), there is more chances that it means “I let the kids play” (rather than “I make the kids plays”!). But I would say that the “to make” meaning is more frequent. Hope this helps! ^^
Thanks! I had this exact question in mind.
so what counts as group 2 verbs :o?
RU verbs. ending in RU, often is group two. but sometimes U verbs end with RU, so be careful.....those one's will sound weird though, so it's chill... like amasu sounds weird, so of course it is aRImasu
80% of verbs ending in "eru" or "iru" are in group 2. So when in doubt, treat it as group 2.
My brain is melting. I'm dumb and I need a way to learn Japanese, not like super fast but just like a step by step class on video to help me, but whenever I find something its not a full Japanese learning set. Its always the beginner stuff and nothing else. what do I do?
Camerenさん、こんにちは。Thank you for watching my videos. Have you considered taking Japanese lessons or doing a language exchange?
I don't know where to do those sort of things... Plus I'm 15.
Well, I started when I was 13, and there was no internet back then, it was even difficult to find books. Now, there are plenty of resources out there! I’m sure you’ll find a method that suits you ^^
Okay thanks.
The ending was a little ... abrupt...
ありがとうせんさい
Hattan Alotaibi 先生です
pato san ,doumo arigatou ,in 1:08 it should be "turn u syllebols in to wa syllybols no a syllebols" :)
Yuukiさん、コメントありがとうございます！^^ As I explained in the video, only verbs that end with the hiragana う will turn into わ. Here I'm talking about the u ENDING syllables in general, that is why I say that we change them into a "A ENDING syllable". I am referring to the whole first row of the hiragana chart. I hope this clarifies a bit! ^^
