「なる」と「する」だからbecomeとdoの違いでしょ?簡単じゃん。って思った人が多いと思う。あるいは、passiveとactiveの違いじゃーんって思った人も多いと思う。 だけど、実は根本的な意味自体が変わるんですね。 「気になる」の意味は、「注意を引く」「興味がある」「知りたい」が中心的で、そこから「恋愛対象として意識している」(be interested in someone romantically)の意味があったり、「心配である」の意味がある感じですね。 これに対して、「気にする」は基本的に 「心配する、懸念する」という意味です。場合によっては「配慮する」の意味もあります。例えば、「時間を気にする」と言えば間に合わなくなるかもしれないと不安に思うという意味なのが普通ですが、場合によってはそういう精神的な意味はなく、間に合うように時間を意識するという意味になります。でもそういう場合は「時間に気をつける」と言うことの方が多いです。

I’ve been studying Japanese for a few years and found your channel recently. I found your dialogues very helpful. You did an excellent job in explaining the phrase using lots of examples, and how it could be used in different situations. Your teaching method is the same as how people learn Japanese as their first language. Instead of translating things into Japanese from another language, the examples show what Japanese people would say in those situation.

this is so good. Ive been learning japanese for 20 years and I always felt a lot of gaps that prevented me to fully understand anything except the simplest of manga. Things that you can't learn from a dictionary or a grammar book, so i could communicate fluently at a basic level but there was an invisible ceiling to my abilities. You are diligently filling those gaps, one by one.

Amazing explanations as always. I think your viewers would also be interested in a breakdown of how / when to use the ending particle な which you used in examples in this video. Most intermediate level speakers would understand the usage of "don't" as in XXXと言うな! but even myself living in Japan for 7 years and considering myself fluent, I don't fully understand the nuance of な as an ending particle such as in this video when you said 気になるなぁー edit: typos
@KingCloudsCape Жыл бұрын
Living in japan seven years your level is likely far higher than mine but I've always understood that kind of な as a casual or colloquial form of ね, usually used to indicate one is thinking out loud to one's self...I could be wrong though!
@SonarHD Жыл бұрын
The な ending particle has different meanings, so it depends on context (as usual with Japanese). As you mentioned, a verb in dictionary form followed by な means “don’t” whatever the verb is. However, in your second example, 気になるなあ sounds like “I’m really Interested”, or “come on, tell me”, or something to that effect. The なあ that’s extended in this way can give a feeling of envy. For example, a friend tells you they’re going to Disney, and you really like Disney, you can say いいなあ, which gives this feeling of I’m jealous (but not necessarily in a bad way). Another meaning of な as an ending particle is something like “huh”. Or like was said, as a rougher version of ね, which is more manly sounding (sort of like the difference between 僕 and 俺). Anyway, those are the different meanings of なthat I can think of. I might’ve missed something though, so apologies if that’s the case. However, a video by Kaname on this particle would be most welcomed 👍.

For me the word 「なんか」 just ressemble the english of "something like" or "kind of". Many times when you want to express your opinion but you don't want to be very straight or make it sound more personal you put this word. For example, in the street you find a house that look creepy you want to say "That house is kind of a scary" ->「その家はなんか怖いだ」 I'm no expert in Japanese but I have some idea about it, so feel free to tell if there is any correction.

It’s absolutely refreshing to be able to watch a Japanese language video in which the presenter does not speak to the viewer as if they were a toddler or mentally incapacitated. There is nothing that hinders listening ability and conversational fluency more than never getting past the point of hearing words slowly and pronounced overly dramatically. As helpful as their videos may be, this is a reason I cannot stand The Japanese ammo channel. I already speak with my family and friends any normal conversational temple and when I want to learn something new I can’t stand being spoken to like I opened Genki 1 up yesterday. If you want to be able to speak to speakers of another language, you need to speak at the speed that the speakers will speak to you. Otherwise he will always remain at a handicapped level
