In conclusion 1. When you are in conversation with a friend or in another situation, try to find words or sentences with the same meaning or the same pronunciation. 2. Remember the minor details including nuances, accents, or other. 3. Have a debate with your friend or maybe fight him, and associate these words with the experience.

Whether or not if Dogen or Matt sees this. I really want to thank both of you for inspiring me to really get into Japanese more with a greater degree of effort(I mean learning with immersion is much more fun now and is it really "difficult" to watch anime when you already have an interest?). So, if anyone gets around to seeing this, be sure to check out Matt and Dogen for continued ideas because they are super awesome people. Matt especially thank you for the ideas with immersion that has saved my life and made everything so much better during quartine(those ideas were God sent with help so really really thanks), and Dogen thanks for your funny content and super informative ideas with pitch-accent and everything. P.S. funny that this comment will become old, and I'll back be saying WOW that was a long time ago and my Japanese was mediocre but in the future hopefully it is awesome. So, future me and others keep it up and remember putting yourself into any Japanese is getting you better than you were yesterday!

That was me and my teachers in school, arguing about syntax... They used modern syntax, while I use archaic syntax... So while they would say "the brown fox jumped over the lazy dog" I'd say "the brown fox over the lazy dog jumped" although not exactly that sentence, and not in English, because English has a strict word order.. Since when would English use House yours instead of your house. Well 1000 years ago, but that's not important... neither of us were wrong, but it was all about which version was the best.

I thought this would be very informative, then I learned it was a joke and wondered why else I would expect anything else from Dogen. Then I realized, he was being really clever about hiding the tricks to memorizing Japanese words in the video. 1.) 0:09 - 0:13 - Learn the synonyms, and learn the little nuances that differentiate words. (0:26 - 0:39, 1:11) 2.) 0:14 - Repeat words to yourself to help remember them. (Maybe use SRS apps?) 3.) 0:41 - Learn pronunciation (incl. pitch accent) when you learn new words. (1:18) 4.) 0:56 - 0: 59 - Don't admit mistakes and deflect. 5.) 1:25 - 1:28 - When corrected again, pretend you knew it all along, then deflect.

@AlexisAlexander646 3 жыл бұрын

No, you are not learning for nothing because if you don't even know the basic grammar and vocabulary, then even with perfect pronunciation, you can't form a single sentence. It's just like having someone speak in an accent in English, their tone and everything will sound odd and foreign, but they are still speaking English nonetheless and phonetics is not something that one just memorizes. They can study it and learn about them, but to be able to accurately put it to use, you just gotta use the language more and interact with natives, and that just takes time

Secret Info from Banter Achieved: 1) There are different ways to IMPLY the same thing (i.e. similar meaning). 2) When structure is considered, nuances matter. (i.e. in formal writing). 3) To Memorize, Expand your Vocabulary then Improve what you've come to know. 4) Develop your ear's senses to the nuance of specific phonetics, such as rendaku. 5) Slowly figure out Exceptions to the Rules.
