The difference exists in English as well. They can both definitely be equivalents to "sticky" in English, but ねばねば is more like "gooey" and ベタベタ is more like "tacky".

A-chan watching this: 👁👄👁

That “hmm, so what?” though!!! 😂

I'm glad the focus of this channel is onomatopeia - not only will we get to learn a lot, the channel will also keep going on forever! 😄 The story gave me such a second hand embarrassment! The cringe was physically painful 😰

When you were talking about the "neba neba" sweat that would not be normal, you made me laugh so much! Thank you for your subtle sense of humor!

So happy you are making lots of contents these days. More power to your channel.

You speak really clear! It's so good even though I still don't understand a lot of vocabs~ I feel motivated to continue studying! 😌

What the... When did you get 15k subs??? Weren't you celebrating 2k just a few weeks ago?. Anyway, I'm so happy you are finally getting tha attention you deserve, and great video as always!

日本語勉強中です。とても役に立つ動画です。ありがとうございます。結構英語のコメントが多くて、よく見ると英語も上達できるかも知れません。

I think japanese onomatopeias are so interesting and also kinda cute haha, I don't think I've ever seen a language that has so many onomatopeias like japanese and such creativity. Your story is really funny as well

omg such a creepy story! but yeah where I live there are so many ベタベタ guys in public transport(: anyways, great video, as always

What an entertaining school life you had xD A-chan must have really liked you but went about it the wrong way to express herself so she ended up acting really scary instead😂

She didn't even apologize

I'm binge watching your videos, not only you teaching but also telling a story. - from malaysia ✌🏻

I would use ねばねば for people. I would just say dang- I ねばねば wanna hang out with them again 🤣🤣

I worked at a bakery in high school, and some customers would want to know my number, social media, or when I was off from my shift. Most would back off when I said no but I remembered a few would be persistent and it was really difficult because I also couldn't be rude to customers. One customer talked to me a few times and one day found me on Facebook. He messaged me a bit and...turns out he was even older than my mother. I blocked him but he still continued to come to the bakery. Truly ベタベタ

僕の一番好きなyoutuber。怖くて面白い話を教えてくれてありがとうOnomappu先生

「付き合ってるって言ってるよっていう風に言っていました」 なんか早口言葉ですね😮

動画が面白い！日本語字幕も付いてる！勉強に役立つ！ありがとう！

We have this beta beta in turkish "yapış yapış" which comes from verb yapışmak(to stick) and "yapış yapış" means sticky. It has nearly the same meaning but we dont usually use it for other people who cling to us.

Thank you so much! These lessons are really helpful 🙌

I've been waiting for this video! Great as always!

この動画は本当に役に立っていますね。

awesome teaching!!!

このような面白くて心を引きつける話は最高だよね！また日本語練習させてくれてありがとう、ひときさん

I love your stories!! Please do more story time so fun to hear 🙈☺️ 本当に面白い😆

Onomappuさんの日本語は聞き取りやすく、理解しやすいです！とても勉強になります。動画を本当にありがとうございます。

ひときさん、ベタベタの使い方を教えて、ありがとうございます！ I've been studying Japanese for almost two years now, but learning onomatopoeia is still a great struggle. Your channel is just what I was looking for. Thank you for the videos!

you making it easier to understand by using gesture, really thanks for that keep it up!!

Thank you! I’m learning Japanese and your videos are really useful ♥︎

Your videos are so interesting to watch and the perfect difficulty for my current level, glad that i found your channel !

有り難う＞勉強になりました

That story was scary! Good thing she didn't do anything bad end the end, just blocked you. She must have been very embarassed. I just found your channel and like it a lot so far! Thanks for the interesting lessons :)

しかも 英語と日本語の字幕がついて とても便利です~☺ これからも応援しますから 色々頑張ってください~~🤗

Love your videos. Cheers from Brazil.

!! Great vid as usual Keep it up^^ I enjoyed it a lot!

I can't believe she did that! この動画はすごく面白い！私にとってオノマトペは覚えにくくて、意味が曖昧になるので、こういうような説明は本当に役に立ちます。話し方もわかりやすくて、話の内容は思ったより面白い！

「俺の彼女にベタベタ触るなよ」ひときさん、かっこいい！

Man I love your videos! So glad to have found your channel

Very interesting video! It’s so hard to find Chinese subs on these kind of videos, glad to have discovered your channel!

I really like how Hiroki teach vocabulary and continue with his story. the vocabularies in story somehow stick to my mind and when I re-watched the video for the 2nd or 3th time, I can follow the Japanese subtitle and speak it out ..Of course with many pause, but I didn't read Japanese subtitle before. Thank you Hitoki

Thank you so much for your wonderful video! I found your channel today and I subscribed! I've been learning Japanese for nearly two years but it is not very consistent as I have to manage it along with my university studies and sports, but after watching your videos I realized that my persistence in studying even a little everyday and making Japanese a part of my life, like when I have conversations in my head (is it weird? XD) has enabled me today to understand 95% of your video without subtitles. Thank you always, for making awesome content!

Great video! Japanese onomatopoeia are amazing, I mean they're so useful in so many situations :D Thanks Hitoki-san !!

Hi! Just subscribed to your channel, hoping to learn some more Japanese! Thanks for describing these onomatopoeias! And thanks for telling the story! I had fun listening to it!

Thanks to your videos i learnt lots of Japanese culture that I've always wondered about 😂 they're all interesting

I kinda know nothing bout Japanese but I’m interested and I’m still here step by step. Keep it up!

I love your videos about onomatopeias because you make those sounds over and over again and it's funny hahahaha

A-chan is watching here 👀 Hahahahahaha! 😂😂😂

Watched several of your videos I decided to subscribed. So informative never find channel like this, very interesting and educational and you speak so clearly and to the point so easy to understand. I also had similar experience about it 😅 Looking forward to next and future videos

Dude... I am so anxious to understand this xD

im really glad i found this channel. ive been getting frustrated because ive been trying to learn japanese for years, i take classes in school, i have had private tutors, and i practice on my own, but i am still not fluent. but then i see people online say they became fluent in 2 years, or that they could hold a conversation in 8 months. i can read hiragana and katakana pretty much perfectly, i learn kanji consistently, and in general japanese feels very natural to me and all my teachers have told me i am very skilled. but despite all this, i am not fluent. if i went to japan today, i would not be able to get around or buy things without someone helping me. i decided to do a little research and i found out that the scientifically best way to learn a language, if you cant move to a country that speaks it, is to watch and listen to media in that language without subtitles. and i have been listening to japanese music for years but ive never watched anime or anything without subtitles because it is boring and ruins the story. then i stumbled on your channel and it is really helpful. you speak simple japanese, but not so simple that it is unnatural. you use lots of little images and icons, and hand and facial expressions to help get the meaning of what youre saying across but not so much that you give it away without our brains figuring it out for themselves. ive already noticed that after watching some of your videos, my brain has started taking lots of little puzzle pieces of the language that ive learned and put them together into something i can actually use. for example (haha), in this video i heard you say "たとえば”, and, while i havent actually looked up the meaning yet and i might be making myself look stupid, i connected the dots of a line from a song i like (kataomoi by aimer) and how you used it, and i realized i knew what it means. other ways your videos are just perfect for people like me are that they are not too long, so despite the fact i cant really understand what youre saying and it can be hard to focus when that is the case, i am still able to pay attention to your videos. they are also fun because you focus on onomatopoeia and add fun things like personal stories like this one, or calling your friends. it really helps show how japanese is used in different contexts and keeps it interesting. its a surprise you dont have more subscribers!

I literally love these videos, I can't really understand it all, but I should be able to one day. こんな動画が大好きで、理解できなくても、いつか理解できるようになりたいと思っています。 あの。。。オノマップはかわいい人のようですね。

先生の動画を全部見ました。😊 動画は全部面白かったです。😅 動画からたくさん勉強できました。🥰とっても役に立ちます。✨☘️有難うございました。✨🌺

I just found your channel and I like it! I subscribed immediately! Keep up the good work :) Saludos desde España 🇪🇸

Hi! New subscriber here! Really love your videos~ Your storytime sent chills down my spine! Glad it turned out ok in the end!

やはりit's because of your handsomeness 😂.People are naturally attracted by beautiful things.

There are words I learn where it is immediately obvious how they are used. And then there are some where I wonder. So thank you for giving me a real example of 表す! The app I was using (wanikani) translates it as "express" and does give some example sentences, but this is so much more useful. (And while the English translation does fit, I do think the usage is slightly different) I also noticed you said ベタベタする. I really need to get used to the versatility of する, since you would never say something like that in English. (Also constructions like においがする. "To do odour" doesn't make any sense in English, does it? :D I kinda like it, though.

溶けたチーズも「ねばねば」と言いますか。ひときさんの動画、いつも見てます！本当に最高です！

Found good and clear speaking Japanese channel 👍 Eventho I had been working with Japanese for 2 years but it is hard to capture their sentences, especially when they use slangs and onomatopeia 😂

How creepy. Im waiting for the next vid. Btw Hitoki san, you look like 2PM Lee Junho 😂

Aちゃんは「ふーん、だから?」って言ったのは一番怖いことだった。 ひときさんの動画は面白くて、日本語の勉強に役に立ちますよ~ ありがとう!

Super keep rocking

こんにちは、ひときさん、 僕はドイツ人です。2年6ヶ月間ぐらい日本語を勉強して最近ひときさんの動画を見つけました。字幕なしでひときさんの動画をわかることができます。本当にはっきりくて説明はめちゃ簡単やすいです。マックすいての動画とかN1日本語の利欲試験の動画とかピザを注文の動画は楽しかった。でも全部の文法の説明の動画はとても役立ちます。この動画をしてくれて本当にありがとうございます。

I remember middle school being kind of ベタベタ the whole time! As someone who doesn't know a lot about Japanese education, can I ask what you study in cram school? Keep up the great videos onomaupu, I'm learning so much! 私は新しことそ学びたがつている。

Aちゃん怖い（笑）

hi there, i'm from Venezuela. Your videos help me a lot to learn this beautiful lenguage!

omg that's actually really creepy😭 i also have this beta beta experience. so i just broke up with my previous bf 8 months ago, but he can't accept it. so until this day he's still ask how am i doing, what are u gonna do today, even sending me some packages (he lives in different province now) many times i told him to stop but idk what's wrong with his mind😭 i also told him "ur bothering me" and his response was like "okay i'll chat u less". HE DOESNT GET IT😭😭 all i want him is for him to live his life without thinking of me anymore. please yall if you're already broke up from your ex, don't chat them unless it's important, you may think they're fine but please at least consider how they'll feel. thank u for reading!

Hmm... no, I've never had a べたべた experience. But your story was interesting (and creepy...)! 😆😅

when i was a freshman at uni there was a boy who would come by my side and talk to me even though i said to him that i'm not interested in getting to know him "closer". it was so annoying, fortunately my groupmate was his cousin so i asked her to talk with him. after that he didn't bother me anymore. but more filthy thing happened the same year to my groupmate. there was a boy who would write her on social media and even tried to talk to her in person, but she blocked that boy everywhere and showed them that she is not interested. after few weeks we found out that this boy was spreading a rumor about my groupmate that she was the one who was writing him, annoying with "i like you so much" stuff. his behavior in this situation is indeed disgusting.

I love your channel and would like to use it to improve my Japanese, so could you please make a transcript with furigana, thank you

ネバネバとベタベタはタイ語にも別々のオノマトペがあります。ネバネバよりベタベタの方が離す時の糸？の切れるスピードが速いって感じですね。ひときさんが教えてくれたストーリーが面白い。伝え方がすごく上手です。いろんなハプニングがよく起きるみたいなので、よく気をつけて、またいろんな経験をみんなに教えてください。次の動画も楽しみにしています😄👍👍

Hair is very intimate. Someone touched my hair and arm at work. He was married too. I told my boss, and he stopped it. Later the guy was fired for an unrelated unforgiveable mistake in his work.

オノマップ先生、いつも字幕をつけるのは凄いですよね！どのくらいの時間が掛かっていますか？ありがとうございます！

Hitoki, your english is really good! Did you learn english from school or were you self-taught?

Wow, amazeballs video! Hooked!

I´m Brazilian and I´ve been living in Japan for about 22 years and I can´t speak Japanese the way I should. I really don't have good experiences with Japanese people in my past. I believe that´s the reason I have this block to learn Japanes. I learned English on my own just watching movies and TV shows, I´m not saying my English is of a very high standard, but I can say everything I think and feel. Forgive me for writing so much but for the first time in 22 years I really wanted to learn Japanese because of your videos. This may seem silly to everyone else, but it´s very important to me. My daughter is going to Japanese school and I feel ashamed for not being able to help her with homework. My point is, you´re being very important to me, thank you so much for recording to take your free time and give to people like me who really need helping to start unterstand basic Japanes to live here. I hope you can read my comment some day and understand how important you´re to me. From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU VERY MUCH

Very interesting story. Once you become a doctor and actually start treating patients, you'll realize 1/4 of the patients are crazy like A-chan.

Yeah I had an experience like this, but he turned full stalker and wouldn't leave me alone. It was crazy, and I hated how everyone thought we were going out! Moved to a different college, that sorted it, since he luckily didn't know where I live! Though recently there's been this other guy stalking me online now, from that same school :0

Beta beta is ChipChipa in Hindi.

モテモテですねｗ

その言葉のニュアンスをよく伝えたりめっちゃ面白い話をしたりしてくれてありがとうございます。 僕は初心者なんだけど、くだけた言葉とか簡単な文法とかで話してるので、すぐにわからないところはあまりありませんよ。笑

数年前にバスの中で英語の塾を通っている時は知らないあるべたべたする女の子が僕の座っているところに迫ってくっついてきました。僕があれーっ？でもあの時初めてそういうことが経験していなかったのでどうすればいいのかわからなくなって、数秒の間で何も言うことができなくなくて、彼女が体で僕の体の左側に擦ってしはじめた後僕が早く立ち上がってバスの後ろに行ってまして、とにかくあいつの目線から隠し果たした。でも怖いというよりも自分にイライラした、なんで何も言わなかったよとか。

Oh, Hitoki...that IS a really creepy story. At first, I thought, well, that's not so bad and I know at that age it's easy to like someone and fool yourself into thinking there's more there than there is, but once she started making up fake dates you went on, that crossed the line from self-delusion to creepy Fatal Attraction mode. Ugh!

I see you give a like to almost every comment. So this is my to like. Cool video. I learn Japanese and subtitles are very helpful.

Very interesting as always! 👍 I was wondering about those cartoons that appear in you videos. I've noticed them also on other japanese learning sites/channels. They seem to be a very japanese thing and are so on the spot! Could you please tell me where one can find them?

How creepy, I wonder how she got you're information to start with

こんにちは。ありがとうございました👍❤👍👍

ため口モードも、ありがとうございます。

Thank you for the video! Could you tell, if ベトベト is used instead if ベタベタ? In what cases and how often? As far as I've checked the dictionary, meaning is the same(

私が ベタベタの男の人は大丈夫だと思います。it shows dedication. そう何かちょっとかわいい。

Woah u were at 120k yesterday when I subscribed and now ur at 121k??? Nice to see ur channel growing tho, ur content’s great :)

確かに怖いね！ たぶんAさんが「この人優しそう」と思って、she tried to take advantage of that.そういう人がけっこういますね。私はこういうことがたくさんありすぎて男性と話すことが怖くなっちゃった😅 日本に行ったとき日本人の男性がシャイだから大丈夫だと思ってたけど、けっこう怖い出会いがありました😰 ところで、チーズの場合はネバネバといいますか？納豆みたいに糸がでるから。

Story starts at 03:40

I am a weirdo... I like clingy people

Hitoki san 学校の時モテモテだった〜ww ま〜今そうですし nohomo😆

7:15 - there's a typo. It's "social", not "socail". yoroshiku.

😱 I met a girl just like A-chan last year.

Japanese boys make japanese women suffer. The poor girl already did not know what to do to make you pay attention to her. I'm more confident that most said to themselves "why not".

#real social distance てか、めっちゃ怖かっただろう！

Having a yandere gf seems so nice, what a shame...
