SoSo: italki.app.link/teachersoso 2. Anri: italki.app.link/teacheranri 3. Show: italki.app.link/teachershow Hopefully you enjoyed the video! I was surprised at how much I was able to output, but it definitely also made me motivated to actually eventually start practicing outputting as well as I definitely feel that I have the baseline already built for it. I'll still go for 20k cards first, which should happen at the beginning of summer, and after that its going to be exiting to see what an impact outputting will have over time!

awesome stuff! when I first watched your "I Learned Japanese 1 Hour a Day for 600 Days Straight" video, I thought a number like that seemed near impossible. It seemed even more impossible when I started studying and everything felt so difficult and incomprehensible. However, now I'm on day 567 and just recently came in first place for the highest level of my state's Japanese Olympiad competition! I honestly owe it all to you for planting that initial seed that made me want to learn Japanese in the first place. Can't wait to see how the next 600 days of my learning goes!

I've seen ads for Italki plenty of time before but this is the most in depth video I've seen about italki before and how it can actually be used instead of just "practice your language with a native speaker cause you cant find someone to talk too". I think its really cool and I loved seeing the variety of teachers + their lessons and seeing a little bit of the lesson itself is really intresting. Next year is when ill be starting Japanese (this year I'm putting all my focus on Spanish) but I can actually see myself using Italki as a source in the future. Great video as always :)

iTalki really shines as a way to practice speaking with native speakers though. Those other videos aren't lying. Finding tutors that really do more is finding a gem in the rough. I could really benefit from a tutor who could really teach as well as a college class but I've yet to find anyone yet. The tutors are really about what you would expect if you went to your school's "free" tutor or extra help area.
I really recommend to start reading books (specially novels) after you reach 20000 cards. The amount of exposure is quite incredible. I believe Stephen Krashen did a lecture about the power of reading if you're interested. In my case, my english and french improved drastically after just a few months of reading daily and, curiously, had a huge effect on my oral expression without even talking that much. Have a nice day.

@SirProdigle I just use the Anki 2k/6k deck. The word in the front of the deck and the reading and an example sentence in the back. Also, some people focus on learning the kanji and every single reading but in my opinion you shouldn't do that. You should learn the readings through vocabulary rather than memorize them. The reason is because I notice that there are some "unspoken" rules of kanji readings. For example, if a kanji has a つ at the end of the reading then it most likely has a reading that ends with っ (small tsu), so if a kanji had the reading ふつ then it most likely has a reading ふっ as well. Anyways, other than that, it's just studying the reading of words and practice by reading the words. I mostly read manga so I have definitely gotten used to not needing furigana as much.

I love your Japanese update videos. I would happily listen to an uncut 3 hour video of your iTalki lessons (I don't need subtitles for Japanese either). I've used iTalki on and off for over 10 years and I've found it to be great for Japanese speaking practice once I was able to talk. Simply amazing really. My 75 year old dad is brushing up his German after countless years of neglect and he found an iTalki tutor he likes a lot too. But I'm not so happy with my experience using the tutors to learn grammar at a beginner to low intermediate level for Korean. I've heard good things from other people however so different strokes for different folks. I think for me when I can't express myself well the iTalki one on one format with no tests just doesn't work so well. And switching to English makes the whole thing useless. I keep trying however. Grammar is so hard. I noticed right away that you said you wanted to speak casual Japanese and then SoSo-san proceeded to use keigo (even just the simple textbook -mas form is considered keigo by Japanese speakers). Most Japanese people, even teachers when you sign up for a lesson to practice a certain style of speech, will end up speaking in whatever way feels more natural/comfortable to them. If your main goal is just to enjoy yourself speaking Japanese for an hour and maybe as a plus focus on a specific style of speech then this is not a big deal at all. It's way more important if the tutor is listening and responding to the content of what you're saying. But sometimes you do want to focus on that style of speech and then.. well I guess you can be rude about it and keep reminding them or just try several teachers until you find someone who doesn't need constant reminding. And I'm not going to lie. I sometimes pick teachers because they look look nice. Like your 2nd tutor - no way in real life am I going to get to talk to a pretty girl like that for a whole hour. Overall I really like iTalki so I'm glad you had a good experience. I look forward to your future videos on your Japanese journey.

About exactly 2 years ago, I came across your "I learned Japanese 1 hr/day for 600 days" video on the YT algorithm, and it was the sudden spark of inspiration that led me to believe that learning Japanese could actually be an achievable feat for me. I spammed duolingo for 2 weeks, then dropped it for a core Anki vocab deck, and then eventually transitioned into a more immersion-based / sentence-mining approach, and ever since studying Japanese has become a huge (mostly) daily passion for me. I still have a long road ahead of me (hard to say exactly but I'm maybe N2-ish level right now?), but I've only been enjoying the ride, and it has had an immensely positive effect on my day-to-day life. I just happened to search up your video & channel again on a random whim, and it's once again inspiring to see your continued efforts as well as the milestones you've achieved. I just want to say thank you so much for giving me that first spark of inspiration that's now developed into a core & indispensable part of my life! The idea of learning Japanese prior to then had always interested me, but the thought of it had previously always seemed too daunting and in my mind an impossible task. Somehow, that video of yours 2 years ago gave me the message I needed to just start and actually give it a proper try. So yeah, I can't say thanks enough for that, and all the best to both our journeys with the language going forward! 本当にありがとうございました!

I am a native Japanese and I think your Japanese is already perfectly fine for life in Japan. I think you encouraged Japanese learners to be able to have a conversation without having to practice speaking. Furthermore, I would like to note a mistake I noticed in your quest for perfection. 2:29 そうですね、友達の話し方がいいかもしれません。 6:46 魚もいますけど。I was very hesitant to make a correction. Fish are not people, but with this sentence it is more natural to say います. 7:16 エストニアでは日本のように魚を寿司にするような文化がないと思います。 7:35 一つ例を挙げると 7:51 全てが普通です。 ← めっちゃ is very casual, and since you are speaking in honorifics, Japanese are surprised when you suddenly become casual. 8:57 僕は4年間(よねんかん) 12:40 なるほど、そうなんですね。← なるほどですね is a phase that could have been said by a Japanese . Maybe it is said in a anime. 13:38 はい ← おう is It's a phase used by men, but not very polite. However, when it is extended like おおー, it becomes an exclamation, which changes it into a good-feeling affable malediction. 13:57 とても役に立ちそうです。 17:49 人も冷たい ←The expression "サムイ" is more likely to mean someone who is boring. 冷たいis more appropriate, but the expression 人も寒いis funny, so Show laughed. 20:32 とても役に立ちます。 All three teachers are great, especially the second, Anri sensei, who is charming and has great ideas about accents. She also speaks in a typical Tokyo woman's way, so if you can understand her, you can understand most Japanese women. あるといるの使い分け www.nihongo-c.jp/blog/blog-entry-42.html#:~:text=%E3%80%8C%E3%81%82%E3%82%8A%E3%81%BE%E3%81%99%E3%80%8D%E3%81%A8%E3%80%8C%E3%81%84%E3%81%BE%E3%81%99,%E3%81%AA%E3%81%84%E3%82%82%E3%81%AE%E3%80%8D%E3%81%AB%E4%BD%BF%E3%81%84%E3%81%BE%E3%81%99%E3%80%82

Question for you (or anyone else who self-studies): How did you get so good at output without practicing speaking? I'm at approx N4 level. I can understand and comprehend written Japanese reasonably well for my level, and can say a few phrases and short sentences. But my overall output is terrible given the 1000+ hours of study I have put in. So yeah, I'm curious about how other self-studiers improved their speaking and output skills to a level where they can have a reasonably fluid basic conversation like this without actually practicing speaking much.

I recommend watching my 4 part series on how to learn Japanese (where I talk a bit about outputting) as well as my yearly update videos where I mention my experience with output (both have playlists on my channel). In reality, 1000 hours is very little for fluent output - output requires not only a large vocabulary to freely express a wide variety of thoughts you might have, but also good understanding of said vocabulary, as well as a strong recall ability that will come from having spent thousands of hours on input, with a bit of output practice on top of that. You're pretty much guaranteed to succeed in output as well, but its just going to take a very long time, and that's just natural, especially with Japanese. Even to this day, despite outputting a vast amount literally every day, I sometimes stumble when trying to find the correct words or figure out if what I just said was grammatically sound, but if I had another few years of this practice, that would most likely become much more of a rarity, and I'd have unlocked truly fluent Japanese for the rest of my life.
