Here is the 29th video of Watch and React Japanese Basic series. It is a Picture Story video, and you will have lots of input!
Please see how much you can understand from the pictures, my gesture and the context. You can also make use of the Japanese subtitles. I will try to edit the subtitles for the Picture Story series, since it contains a lot of words compared to other types of videos. You can get the auto-translation to other languages if you need it (as the last resort.)
Please just bare in mind that Japanese language has no singular/plural distinction. And "- san" is genderless so you might see Mr or Ms [name] and the gender can be inconsistent in the translation. If you find the story too difficult , please let me know what was difficult in the comment, then I will think of how to make it understandable for you in future! You can adjust the video's speed suitable to your level as well.
**********
Note: I loosely follow the high frequency Japanese word list, especially the verbs in the order from the highest frequency. Nouns are not necessarily introduced in order since I prefer to speak and express things naturally and not too rigid. Anyway, I am aiming to cover the high frequency words that you are going to need in my first 100 lessons.
I record the lessons as if I am giving a live lesson without editing until I hit the first 100 videos. Please react as much as you can while you watch the video, or leave comments as the part of your reaction/output activity.
I have some level 0 beginner learners studying with me now, and I need to quickly pile up some videos for them to watch daily. I will simply record something and post straight without editing. When I find time, I will improve the subtitles!
It would be nice if you can watch the video as part of your daily Japanese input, or even you can interact to the questions that I ask in it, However, please do not feel you must answer to them. Take it as someone you know is just simply making a conversation. "Take it easy" is my best advice! I hope you enjoy it!
These beautiful images are from ダ鳥獣戯画 : chojugiga.com/
I adore them!
And that was inspired by Japan's pride, 鳥獣人物戯画（ちょうじゅうじんぶつぎが）en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C5%8...
I think they are facinating!
