Brandon Skelton haha! Maybe next video I’ll go into the ancient Japanese secret of knit one pearl two :p

Can someone recommend me the best Japanese learning book for beginners, I don’t want to know how to write and read yet I want to learn how to talk first obviously.

I've been researching into studying Japanese easily and found a fantastic website at Fergs Magic Blueprint (check it out on google)

@@ricwelbre2270 theres a program called “Japanese” it’s free for like the first 7 chapters or so but every chapter has tons of lessons in it so it’s very useful & I’ve learned a lot from it , there are better ways to learn but here’s one of em

mashpushblock couldn’t agree more. It’s a great and inexpensive starting point until someone wants to jump deeper. Then I have options for those as well haha

Gotta laugh at yourself or you'll cry and be depressed I guess haha

I’m currently using Japanese demystified to learn Japanese, despite saying you weren’t sure if it was any good, but did you find that you learnt Japanese?

@@aeryngale6124 I wouldn't say so. I ended up talking classes in university using genki and I think my experience with Japanese demystified gave me a leg up but I don't think I could have learned using only that book.

If you're starting from nothing and don't wanna spend money on a book try Japanesepod101! It's a website and podcast that's free and I started with it. Really good starting resource

@@ThatsMyChad what about burning the school , is that an options?

I don't know if you're still wondering, but I can vouch for the niceness of the Dummies books on language. I know the German All in One is pretty good and I plan to buy it, and the Russian ones are great too. I'd say buy it, since it will be a centre for good info, especially because of how wildly spoken the language is ♡

Man idk... I think she'll like the existential crisis intermediate Japanese gives to people and all buuuuuuttttttt

The waifu flag?? The national flag of the Chad Zimmerman channel XD

Chad Zimmerman I’m gonna need one made for it be official sirrr

this ^^^

I found it to be the best resource I used at that level. Just make sure to get the work book as well so you can really drill the ideas and grammar into your head. Another thing worth noting is that a lot of other content creators use a similar vocab and sequence of introducing grammar so you can go that route if you want, or you can use them to reinforce your learning (which is what I did). Last thing worth noting is right after learning the hiragana and katakana characters (if you haven't already) you should start learning the kanji, there's no way around it and its by far the hardest part of learning Japanese. I'd recommend remembering the kanji text books but they certainly aren't needed.

Keigan s thanks for responding to me. I will try to get the genki book and the book that helps you learn kanji.

I am using the Genki textbook now in community college. I am in my third quarter of Japanese. My teacher said Genki is not a self-teaching textbook. One will need a native Japanese speaking tutor to explain the subtle detail. The Kanji is overwhelming for a new student. I recommend this book, "Learn Japanese: New College Text volume 1" by John Young (Author), Kimiko Nakajima-Okano (Author). I have used both books and "Learn Japanese" is much cheaper.

Espererai thank you for responding

A lot of universities in the US use Genki as their starting Japanese books. While it is meant to be used in a class, I do think that it is one of the more self-study friendly textbooks out there. Like someone said, get the workbook for more work. Also, get the answer key so that the questions can be corrected. They also have a Genki website with resources. You may or may not want to wait though because there is a new edition (3rd edition) that is supposed to be coming out soon (maybe even this month I think). But, If I remember correctly, the workbook and the answer key are scheduled for later in the year. So, the second edition already has all 3 books available. Some supplementary books might also be Kanji Look and Learn and A dictionary of Basic Japanese Grammar. They are both put out by the same company as Genki. The Kanji one includes all the Kanji in Genki 1 and 2, plus extras for a little over 500 kanji I believe the final count is. Plus, that one also includes more, and different vocabulary words than Genki. For the price, Genki is a pretty descent starter book for a self study person I think. Is it the best? I don't know. But for someone just getting into Japanese, I think it is fine. Most of the introductory books cover (more or less) the same material. It is mostly a matter of some cover a bit more or less than others, and how they format and explain the information.

hey it's the closest I've gotten XD

*finger guns intensify*
