+That Japanese Man Yuta Loved your video, especially the Italian interview xD

+That Japanese Man Yuta Shibuya is FULL of tourists! I don't think this poll really showed much of anything. I'd be more interested in the results if you had a follow-up question of "Do you live in Japan?" because most of those people probably would have said no, so naturally they wouldn't speak any Japanese, or even need to. I like a lot of your videos, but after seeing this I could only think "残念！"

+That Japanese Man Yuta Wow cool someone from my Country :) officially it's Jōjia jin now, it changed name from Gurujia

+That Japanese Man Yuta I don't know if it's a mistake, but why are Pakistani and the other south Asian guy counted as "Western-looking" people? They don't look Western to me anyway, more South Asian. But that was an interesting video!

Typical Italian grammar Mussolini /s

@@ramdas363 Lmao.

No? If you have all the vocabulary then just consume content in the target language and grammar comes naturally.

@@comradecameron3726 Bingo. Your brain figures out grammar naturally. I teach English in a country where the ENTIRE FOCUS is on learning grammar rules. Their grammar sucks!!!! I constantly tell them to improve their grammar by not attending anymore grammar classes. Find books or TV shows you can almost completely understand and keep getting plenty of input. If you can understand it, you will improve quickly. They all ignore me. In Asian countries you are taught that THIS. IS. THE. WAY. I really wonder what they think in their minds... "Ok, my English sucks. I've spent years and years and lots of money and it still sucks. Well, maybe if I spend more money and learn from a native speaker I'll improve?" So they then come to me and I say "hi, if you'd like to improve, try A, B and C!" and their brain says "BUT THAT'S NOT WHAT HAS ALREADY FAILED ME FOR A DECADE!! WHO IS THIS FOREIGNER TO TELL ME HOW TO LEARN HIS LANGUAGE?!?!?" Years and years later? They haven't improved at all. It seems like the real thinking is "I have paid money and entered this room. Why should I have to do any work? I PAID MONEY NOW MAKE ME SPEAK ENGLISH!! By the way, I don't want to SPEAK English, I prefer to sit here silently."

And here l always assumed it was the lack of needlessly compicated grammar that made English so convenient as a global language...👁👄👁

@@DayumQuitPlayin bro?

Not a really good advice considering grammar is commonly subjected to context (especially in Japan). And particularly bad advice considering learning a new language usually means learning a new grammar system wich exists independently and completely disconected from other grammar systems you may be familiar with such as the one from your mother language and I own the authority to say this as it is since english is my second language and I barely know any grammatical rules about english yet I can read and write it almost flawlessly (speaking not so good but that's besides the point). And let me tell you, portuguese grammar (my mother language) is significantly harder than english and has much more bullshit going on with its grammar (example: each noun has a gender, wich roughly means that if it exists, it must be either male or female and because of this, there are different verb conjugations, particles and sometimes rules applied, this makes no sense at all yet it's a fundamental aspect of my mother language that gets completely dropped off once I became fluent in english, and this is not all: portuguese has a long list of rules and some usually come with a shit ton of exceptions, usually making the rules meaningless, the only thing I think is bullshit about english is spelling and too many words or expressions with multiple meanings, english is too short sometimes but generally speaking it's a much better language for me to express myself and the grammar is far superior than the grammar of my mother language ). Grammar can very easily become a waste of time on the scheme of language learning, I only reccomend learning grammar you'll hear it or see it being used more than once a lifetime or if it becomes too complicated, ignore it and just learn the rest through repetition and practical usage. That's just my opinion. Peace.

@@guscfer157 I admire that you’re learning English as a second language, but I have to tell you as a native that your writing isn’t as flawless as you think. You’re using one very long sentence for your entire paragraph, making it hard to follow what you’re saying. It’s best to use shorter sentences so that people can understand what you’re saying. I hope this doesn’t come across the wrong way, especially since you’re not fluent in the language.

So South Park

+sortitus It's unfortunately also the exact opposite of how language is usually taught. :(

+genjii931 He said grammar is the most important thing. Aren't languages taught with a focus on grammar?

+Jonét Harry Normally not. Most schools use draggy books that teach you random words, and without encouraging any thinking of your own. To make it worse, those same schools often advertise "we have only natives!" or so when they don't realize some very well-versed foreigners speak and know a given language better than most natives of it, particularly on grammar uses, and also in telling dialect from main language apart. There is just ONE important thing that Italian guy forgot to mention, though, which is just as important: while grammar basically IS essential and of utmost importance, since it's what allows you to know what you're doing with a language instead of having memorized concepts you don't really grasp, or memorized keywords and terms, it is CRITICAL that you *_do not underestimate vocabulary._* I remember I used to think JUST like him on that regard, but then I learned and paid the price once I mastered a language's grammar, but lacked the vocabulary (since it wasn't as interesting or important for me), resulting in me not being able to use the language in a natural, native-like manner. Today I speak 3 languages fluently, but those 3 could've been 5 if it wasn't for that mistake I didn't realize earlier. (Or 8, if I pushed further with French, Hungarian and Japanese, whose basics I handle, but require tons of training.) But in short: Grammar = Engine (like a game's) Vocabulary = Tools If you have the platform/engine, but no tool you can use it with, you consequently also cannot use the engine itself. Likewise, if you have the tools, but no platform/engine, you'll have no idea of what the hell you're actually doing, either. For the latter, though, you can always become a parrot, but that's not a long-term solution.

+Jonét Harry I am learning Japanese and can carry on a basic conversation. Grammar in Japanese is crucial! Same with words.

+Jonét Harry vocabulary and grammar should be a big focus. I have been studying Japanese for almost 4 years and love it. I watch dubbed Japanese movies now such as The Time Traveler's Wife.

jason blood I dated a German and all I know how to say is ich liebe dich You’re also not taking into account how long they’ve been dating, how long they’ve been in Japan, and if the girl even spoke Japanese around the guy before then.

Jordan Cooper If they’re in Japan with these girls then I would assume they knew they were going to Japan and thus could have attempted to learn some Japanese 😂 But if they didn’t bother to learn something before going then still they could have asked their girlfriends how to say a few phrases it doesn’t take long to learn how to say hello, how are you, my name is whatever in Japanese 😂 Finally considering it wasn’t just one guy it was multiple guys I would safely assume there has been a situation where she would have spoken Japanese in front of him, in a restaurant ordering food, talking to one of her friends or one of many other activities that would require the participation of a third party they are in Japan after all 😂 I’m not trying to be negative I just find it funny that out of the 4 or 5 white guy Japanese girl couples that none of them said any of the basics 😂

The chickens that lay eggs in Japan are treated and fed completely differently than other countries. Therefore the eggs have lots more nutrients which you notice in the yolk which is quite orange compared to yellow in the US for example. All of this also allows the eggs to be eaten raw for about two weeks after purchase. Japanese eggs taste way better and are a lot more filling as well. I've lived in Tokyo for over a year btw.
