未來簡單式

Rachel: Today, we're gonna talk about Japanese mistakes that Japanese people make including Jun.

Just kidding, my Japanese isn't even good enough to tell those things are mistakes so today-

We're going to talk about today are the ones that I have made in the past so basically today

I'm gonna just tell the world how stupid I am as Japanese

Rachel: Jun just really likes correcting people's grammar because he's a grammar nazi.  Jun: I'm not

Anyways, today's video is sponsored by Squarespace the easiest way to get online with a website or domain.

So there are two kanji for eggs. One is this and the other one is this, do you know the difference?

Yeah exactly, and this one is for raw eggs

Oh, this kanji is only used for cooked eggs, any kind of cooked eggs, but not just hard-boiled

Oh yeah, I think so yeah. Yeah, I was able to use this kanji for cooked eggs

But I actually didn't think about the difference between these two so when I was asked by foreign students like hey

What's the difference between these two words?

and I wasn't able to answer right away, which is a shame so this is the first mistake I made

That's one of the biggest reasons, you know all these is because you've been asked by foreigners so many times.

Yeah, who are learning the language -and every time they ask and I wasn't able to answer so I was just ashamed

And then you look it- no it's good. Cuz then you look it up, and then you know yeah, good for everyone.

"Oji-san" and "Oji-san". Do you know the difference?

I do, because you told me this one before.

While we're recording this, but I know which one Jun's talking about.

This is the one for the uncle that is older, yeah.

So uncle- if your uncle is older than your mother or father, then you use this kanji.

So the ver- the opposite so that's the uncle that is younger younger than your mother or father

Then you have to use this kanji for uncle.

Are both of these as commonly used as each other in Japan?

Didn't know difference so sometimes people get confused so you just kind of use them interchangeably?

Yeah, do you think it's not as common knowledge anymore because it's not as important anymore, the age of birth?

I think it's still like a common sense that you should know if you Japanese.

Though the rest of these are all kanji mispronunciations.

A lot of kanji have multiple readings, yeah, and that's why if you don't know what the correct reading is sometimes

It's easy to make a mistake and read it one way when it's supposed to be read a different way

Yeah, so that's what all of these are. Right. If you have Japanese friends-

Then you can ask these questions and test how their Japanese- how good their Japanese is, but don't let them watch this video first.

There is a full kanji character idioms called "Kiki ipatsu" and the kanji "Kiki" means like a dangerous and the-

second half of kanji "ipatsu", so it's like one string of hair, like even slightest thinnest mistake as a string of hair

So you're like on the edge, on the very edge, yeah.

For some reasons, I always thought the last kanji was not the hair but the kanji "hatsu". "Kiki ipatsu"

and as a lot of people know that's the name of this toy

That's a dangerous game. That was so embarrassing.

I think you should just use it that way, I think that's way better.

It's not serious anymore, it's just that guy- *puff*

Did anyone else make that "pop-up pirate" mistake, like did you look that up online is anyone else doing that or is that just you?

Probably I'm the only one in this entire world who makes that kind of mistake.

Which is this. Do you know how to read this one?

But no, it's actually "ariuru". So that's how you read.

You have- see I've never heard "ariuru" because you always say "arieru". We can say "arieru", too

When you use this kanji, then it should be read "uru", although you can read this kanji as "e"

That's where- that's how when you use this kanji. So that's why it's really confusing

But technically, it's "ariuru" yes, I "ariuru".

Have you ever heard someone say "ariuru"?

Yeah? It's really common. It's just we didn't think about it when we didn't know or you use that-

You didn't think about it. Yes. I didn't think about it

alright, the next one is actually the name of a

So there is a prefecture called: "Ibaraki". You're right, but-

Which we just went to, I have a lot of videos about them. If you want to watch they're on our other channel.

Yes, it's supposed to be pronounced "Ibaraki" but a lot of people pronounce this prefecture "Ibaragi". Really? Yeah, "Ibaragi"

Your question- I don't know exactly why but I a lot of people read this kanji "Ibaragi".

In America, there's a state called "Arkansas" and when I was really really lil- yeah, Arkansas

And when I was really really little I used to pronounce it

Arkansas because I have the word Kansas in it and Kansas is another state. Uh-huh

So embarrassing, but I'm gonna have to tell you guys so the kanji for perfect-

I know this one. This is like this is first year Japanese again too.

Alright, if you know the kanji for perfect-

Please write it down now, like down now, and see if you're wrong or correct

"Kanpeki" so this is how you write "Kanpeki"

It's- a lot of people write "Suji", which means sand

It's the kanji for wall, and you can also read this kanji "Heki" or "Peki" too hmm, but it's actually not-

on your phone or your computer shouldn't it automatically select the correct kanji for you?-

A lot of people write this kanji instead.

You see the difference? The bottom is different. Yeah, that's what I'm talking about so when they're physically writing it down

Yeah, but you can't make that mistake when you're typing. Yeah, because your computer will tell you the correct kanji

Yeah, but a lot people didn't even realize because it's so similar- when you're writing it. Yeah, that's okay. No one writes anymore

Rachel: Yeah, you really write when you have to fill out forms everything else is typing.  Jun: That's when you get embarrassed like me, okay

I type so much now that when I actually have to fill out a form in Japanese it really takes me a long time to remember the

Kanji and sometimes. I have to go look it up again because I've just forgotten
