Reviews for JapanEaseLesson1

i live in japan,...

I live in japan (shibuya if you know where that is...) ive lived here for 7 years. I can read hiragana , katagana and i know about 80 kanji...i like this it was preatty well explained and for someone that doesnt know japanese at all its a good start. You should make some advanced ones. Maybe on calligraphy.

Keep it up!

P.S. Bokuno cincin totemo okii desu. wakarimaska?

Cayler responds:

Then you know a hell of a lot more Japanese than me. lol Nothing I make about Japanese lanuage or culture could possibly teach you anything. Unless I made something that teaches kanji. I could just look those up then make a program about them, even though I don't know them myself. Or I could teach chinese if you're interested. Anatano chinchin wa totemo okii desu keredomo bokuno chinchin wa totemo totemo totemo okii desu yo!! lol

wow nice...

Starting in September, thanks to a persistent friend of mine, a group of us are allowed to start doing Japanese at school. This will definately get me familiar with the basics of he, she, they etc. and I found it pretty useful. I did get a book on Japanese and I think if you had done he, she, they etc. and greetings in the first lesson, like in this book, rather than the random bit on animals then that might have worked a little better.

Still a great help nonetheless and I think it will be useful for a lot of people. Great work.

Humours 2 cosve the pooping cow :D

Good introduction for beginners

The one problem I heard was in the introduction. I was taught NEVER to introduce yourself as "name"+san or kun or chan or whatever. Those are only to be used for other people. I could be mistaken, since I'm not a native speaker, but that was grilled into me during the first semester of the several years I took Japanese.

Cayler responds:

Yes, you're right. That was a big mistake on my part. At first I was just thinking that I needed a way to help people get used to the idea of titles like kun or chan but when I was writing the script, I kinda got ahead of myself and put that in there. Then when I recorded it, I thought, "hey that shouldn't be there...well, nobody will really notice anyway." But now I'm not so sure it was right to just ignore it. I'll bet some people who speak Japanese really well start watching it and think, "What a moron! And he's in charge of teaching all these people who are going to be watching this piece of crap!?" lol I'll just make sure not to make that kind of mistake again. Though, I really kinda do feel like I shouldn't be teaching people because I'm only self taught. I've never taken any Japanese classes or even known any Japanese people. So I hope I can make the next installments without teaching people the wrong stuff! lol Thanx for the review.
