It doesn't make any sense how I could be normal in one language but abnormal in the other because of the octave needed to speak the language.

    • TheUmbrellaCorpX7[エヴ] I don't think bastardizing your language with loan words leads to good things, in regards to the language maintaining its identity/soul. Trust me, I experienced mine become more and more dull as time went on and some dubbed high profile tv shows often display something that is hardly grammatically correct or properly phrased dialogue as it was back in the day, and it's affecting everyday speech and news stations as well, with people genuinely believing that using loan words or figures of speech makes them look smart. I love Japanese, and it's be sad to see it devolve through this slippery slope.

  • What impresses me about Joey is how perfectly balanced his bilingual abilities are. As a person raised in a bilingual environment, the majority of us only speak one language perfectly and the other language just for everyday conversations

    @user-qh7rw5gy5i@user-qh7rw5gy5i3 жыл бұрын
    • I have found that 8 times out of 10 people who claim to be ''bilingual'' are sort of partly bilingual, as in they have native pronunciation in the other language but their knowledge of that language is surprisingly superficial. For example, there is a US boxer called Andy Ruiz who was raised to speak Spanish, but if you watch an interview of him in Spanish, his Spanish is surprisingly limited and he relies on using the same phrases over and over again, like ''hice todo lo posible por....'' This seems quite common with people in the UK who are raised in a Punjabi-speaking household. They say that they are bilingual in English and Punjabi, but in reality their Punjabi is conversational and they have somewhat limited vocabularies. With Joey, it seems like he actually has the balance right where he speaks both of them perfectly.

Many people wouldn’t be able to tell he is not native to Japan. But I can tell because of his intonations which slightly differs from typical Japanese people and he occasionally makes mistakes which natives never do. Chris: 日本語上手ですね

It was so bad that sometimes I could hear loan words like.......after EVERY OTHER JAPANESE WORD. (Not all the time...but it has happened...) Its the same in Korean too. Some Koreans don't even know what the original Korean word is for something like "bus", or "juice" because they use the english one so often.

I love hearing him speak because it’s encouraging to hear someone who started later do so well, and with his deep voice he sounds like the reincarnation of a 500 year old Samurai. :) I am very excited to find your channel (thank you, algorithm!) because I sound very American when I speak!

  • I loved this video! I've enjoyed your script-written ones and this free-script one. I just like your humor, which comes out in whatever you do. Thanks for doing this when it was maybe a bit intimidating. I really, really enjoyed it!

  • Definitely do more of this! It was super interesting and I loved watching the longer, more raw version of Dogen. :D

  • Hi Dogen! Your video hasn't a mistake, Its really nice to get to know something kinda personal about you, despite I see your videos and I admire your pronunciation I didn't know it was hard for you to speak out of the room we always see you in. The content was really nice to see aswell. Thanks!
