So I wanted to change things up a little bit and do this fun little video As many of you know, I've lived in Japan for many years now And one thing I've grown to love is Japan's own unique sounds Some of these I didn't recognize until many years after living here And then didn't know the purpose until many years after this So we're gonna play a little quiz game I'm gonna play 10 uniquely Japanese sounds And we're gonna see if you can recognize where these sounds are played and their purpose I would say that all Japanese should know these sounds I'm gonna start with the easiest sounds and get progressively more difficult So let me know how you score in the comments Which one stumped you because I really want to see how everyone does All right, number one We're gonna start off easy So feel free to pause and replay as many times as you need Ready?

所以我想改變一下，做一個有趣的小視頻，你們很多人都知道，我在日本生活了很多年、我在日本生活了很多年，我越來越喜歡日本獨特的聲音 有些聲音我是在生活了很多年之後才聽出來的 直到很多年之後我才知道這些聲音的用途我想說，所有的日本人都應該知道這些音 我將從最簡單的音開始，然後逐漸增加難度 讓我知道你在評論中的得分 哪個音難住了你 因為我真的想看看大家的表現我們將從簡單的開始，所以請隨意暫停和重放，需要多少次都行 準備好了嗎？

反身代名詞

Okay, this sound came from a Japanese Family Mart convenience store Everyone in Japan goes to convenience store And I would say that even tourists go here when they come to Japan So this is probably one of the easier ones Interestingly, the door entrance chime was made by Panasonic And it was one of its default sounds Family Mart simply made this sound standard at all of their convenience stores nationwide The music itself was created by Yasushi Inada A conductor who used to work for Matsushita Denki Formerly Panasonic There we go Starting off easy, right?

好了，這個聲音來自日本的全家便利店，在日本，每個人都會去便利店，我想說的是，甚至遊客來日本時也會來這裡，所以這可能是比較簡單的聲音之一 有趣的是，門口的報時器是松下製作的，這是它的默認聲音之一，全家便利店乾脆將這個聲音作為其全國所有便利店的標準音 樂本身是由稻田康創作的，他曾是松下電工（原松下公司）的指揮家 我們開始吧，很簡單，對嗎？

Number two This one is slightly more challenging The answer to this one is that it's a Japanese store song Indicating that the store is closing Found all over Japan in places like department stores, supermarkets, etc Its name is Hotaru no Hikari Old long sign And it's a Christmas song known around the world But in Japan, it's heard in many larger size stores Used at the end of the day to let their customers kindly know that it's time to go home When I hear this song, I kind of get into panic mode Because especially when I just got to the store I'm like, oh my god, I gotta finish my shopping It's not done So it is a little bit stressful But what can you do?

這首歌的答案是，這是一首日本商店歌曲，表示商店要關門了 在日本各地的百貨商店、超市等地方都有這首歌 它的名字叫 "螢之光"（Hotaru no Hikari），是一首世界聞名的聖誕歌曲，但在日本當我聽到這首歌時，我就會進入恐慌模式 因為尤其是當我剛到店裡的時候 我就會想，天哪，我得把東西買完，還沒買完 所以有點緊張，但你能怎麼辦呢？

You gotta go home Number three This one might be a gimme But let's see Yakiimo Okay, did you get that?

你得回家了 三號 這個可能是個機會，但讓我們看看 Yakiimo 好的，你拍到了嗎？

Well, if you speak any Japanese at all Then maybe this one was rather easy But if you don't speak any at all This one might be kind of hard Well, the sound is actually coming from the Yakiimo roasted sweet potato song Usually played in the winter by a truck vendor Cruising the neighborhood, selling their warm sweet potatoes The Japanese version of the ice cream truck on cold days These Yakiimo trucks actually became popular Since they could move to high traffic areas in the winter Where people wanted warm snacks And this song itself was made in Tokyo Based on the vague idea of the original Yakiimo song There were many variations But before the 60s, when the cassette tape became popular The version became standard For some reason, when I hear this song I kind of feel a little bit cold and also hungry at the same time Number four Let's try this one I'll give you a clue This song is not the Don Quixote song Which everyone already knows I thought that one would be too easy This song is actually from Yodobashi Camera Which plays non-stop And the melody was adapted from the song Battle Hymn of the Republic The founder Terukazu Fujisawa himself wrote the lyrics And since the main store was at Shinjuku West Exit He incorporated the Yamanote train line and Chuo train line in the lyrics So people could know where the store was located For me, it's just as catchy as the Don Quixote song Where they both forever just get stuck in your head At least for the day Number five Let's see if you've heard this one before Three, two, one So this one varies from area to area But it's basically Japan's afternoon go-home song It's played on the loudspeakers throughout the neighborhood Including parks In my Tokyo neighborhood, it plays at 5 p.m. every day Signaling everyone that it's getting late And it's time to make your way home Interestingly, it serves another purpose It's a daily test to ensure the proper working order Of the neighborhood's emergency system Used for major earthquakes or any other major disaster events That need warning Even in the event of a power outage The system can continue to broadcast using its own battery So this is one of those sounds that I recognized early on But didn't know what it was for until much, much later I'm just glad that this sound is actually pretty calming You know what one of the sounds I love the most coming from Japan?

如果你會說日語，這首歌可能會比較簡單 但如果你不會說日語，這首歌可能就有點難了 這首歌的聲音來自烤紅薯之歌，通常在冬天由在附近巡遊的卡車小販演奏在寒冷的日子裡，他們就像日本版的冰激凌車 這些烤紅薯車實際上很受歡迎 因為他們可以在冬天開到人流量大的地方 那裡的人們都想吃點熱乎乎的點心 這首歌本身就是在東京根據烤紅薯原唱的模糊想法制作的當我聽到這首歌時，我覺得有點冷，同時也有點餓 4號，我們來試試這首歌，我給你點提示 這首歌不是大家都知道的《堂吉訶德》，我覺得那首歌太簡單了因為總店在新宿西口 所以他把山手線和

It's the sound of my Sakurako box arriving at my front door As a sponsor of this video They allow anyone to experience Japan through the comfort of their own home And once I've got it in my hands I can't wait to open up this lovely Japanese artisan snack box It's always unique to the month itself The special theme this month is the seasons of sakura You know, to celebrate Japan's blooming cherry blossoms It's always a cool surprise to see what items I get Like the sakura daifuku, umesenbei, sakura manju, etc But my first taste this month Is gonna be these brown buttery strawberry waffle cookies Oh yeah, and I also got this sakura tea to pair with the snacks And even this sakura sake glass With all these delicious themed snacks It's like having a hanami picnic in my own house And apparently this time if you sign up for a multi-month plan You get a special sakura bonus item So get your own box today Or even gift a loved one and experience Japan from the comfort of your own home Check the links below and use my code PAOLO and get $5 off your first order Number six Okay, so these sounds should be getting a little bit harder to recognize But let's see So this one is Japan's standardized morning calisthenics song Known as Rajo Taiso If you've watched a lot of my day in life videos Which I'm hoping you have Then you've probably got this one correct Originally created to promote health awareness The Tokyo Broadcasting Station started broadcasting this one in 1928 Which quickly spread as a morning assembly routine in elementary and middle schools For many Japanese, the experience of doing these calisthenics Every morning as an elementary school student And getting their card stamped is a shared memory Personally, I don't think I would have minded too much If I had to do this when I was in the US growing up Number seven So pay close attention to this one Two Did you get that?

Well, this sound is the emergency earthquake warning sound That's played on every single Japanese mobile device throughout Japan To warn you that an earthquake is about to occur It's pretty crazy if you're in a large office or just with a lot of people Because everyone's phone is just going off It's pretty insane Even crazier is that it usually sounds several seconds before the earthquake hits Obviously, you'll only experience this one if you've been in an earthquake in Japan So if you've never been in one This one might have been a little bit harder to guess Fun little fact though You can actually turn it off on your phone But most Japanese just have their phones at the default So everyone pretty much hears it Personally, I just have it turned on Number eight Okay, so I don't know if this one is easy or hard So you guys just let me know in the comments So is this sound easy or hard?

如果你在一間大辦公室裡，或者和很多人在一起，這聲音就會非常瘋狂，因為每個人的手機都在響，非常瘋狂。 更瘋狂的是，這聲音通常會在地震發生前幾秒鐘響起、所以，如果你從來沒有經歷過地震，這個可能就比較難猜了。 有趣的小事實是，你其實可以把手機鈴聲關掉，但大多數日本人都把手機鈴聲設為默認，所以每個人都能聽到。

Anyway, this sound is the bell sound at all Japanese schools From elementary school all the way to high school And it's used to signal the beginning and the end of class It's known as the Kinkon Kankon bell sound And modeled after the sound of Big Ben Originally, a loud bell sound was used But after World War II, it became unpopular Because it reminded people of wartime alarms Hence, the more cheerful time signal was invented Strangely, although I didn't go to school here from K through 12 I actually thought this sound was the same sound that I had in the US But I don't know, I may be wrong Maybe I just lived here too long that I think it is But yeah, you guys tell me Number nine This one you might have heard before But do you know what it's for?

總之，這種聲音是日本所有學校的鈴聲 從小學一直到高中，用來表示上課和下課 它被稱為 "Kinkon Kankon "鈴聲，以大本鐘的聲音為原型是以，人們發明了更歡快的時間信號 奇怪的是，雖然我從幼兒園到十二年級都沒在這裡上過學 但我真的以為這個聲音和我在美國聽到的一樣

Well, I didn't know for a long time Got it?

Well, this sound is made by traditional nighttime fire prevention patrols Hinoyojin Yomawari Historically, these patrols were conducted by local community members Such as neighborhood associations, volunteer groups, and fire brigades Especially during winter months When the risk of fire incidents increased due to dry air Participants would walk through residential areas Chanting phrases like Hinoyojin, beware of fire And striking wooden clappers known as Hyoshigi To alert residents of potential fire hazards Back in the day, many Japanese homes were made of wood So houses catching fire was quite common Every time I hear this sound, I'm always like Man, it's gonna be another cold ass winter here in Japan And number 10 All right, this is the final sound How many have you gotten correct so far?

這種聲音是由傳統的夜間防火巡邏隊發出的 Hinoyojin Yomawari 歷史上，這些巡邏隊由當地社區成員組成，如鄰里協會、志願者團體和消防隊，尤其是在冬季，由於空氣乾燥，發生火災的機率會增加、並敲擊被稱為 "Hyoshigi "的木製拍子 提醒居民注意潛在的火災危險 當時，許多日本家庭都是木製房屋 所以房屋著火是很常見的事 每次聽到這個聲音，我都會想 夥計，日本的冬天又要冷死了 10號 好了，這是最後一個聲音 到目前為止，你答對了幾個？

So for this one, I'm gonna give you a clue But you also have to tell me what this sound is for The clue is that you hear this sound 108 times And for those of you who are 9 for 9, let's go!

所以這個問題，我會給你們一個提示，但你們也要告訴我這個聲音是什麼意思 提示就是你們要聽到這個聲音 108 次 對於那些 9 選 9 的人來說，開始吧！
