Ready go...
What is our opening line again? - It's MAIDO
MAIDO this is Cathy Cat!
I am Hayappe. - Hayappe is from Osaka
that's why he will give us a Japanese lesson today.
We recently started this series. Last time we did MAIDO...
If you haven't seen that video already, be sure to click the links.
And what's up this time? - This time it's up.
Get number one.
"Nandeyanen" (WHY)
Your pronunciation is already good.
I seriously love the sound of that word.
The sound?
I get very excited when I hear that word.
You got a point there girl.
"WHY GIRL" like that.
"WHY BOY"
Did you know girl? Depending on how you say it the degree of importance gets stronger.
You can express how much you don't get that thing by changing your voice.
You power up the word with your voice.
When do you use it then?
Well girl, we boys in Osaka we like saying funny things.
That's when nandeyannen is used mostly.
To kind of make the point of a joke? - Yes girl.
Well then go ahead, give us a joke.
A joke? Now?
Are you ready? - No.
Are you ready? - Yes.
Ready go: FOR EXAMPLE
Why?
Why?
I didn't get it.
For example
I bought a pet dragon yesterday. - WHY?
You go next.
I want to become a girl. - Why?
Let me think... wait wait... uuuh....
Why?!
The truth is, I am a girl.
Wh....
That's true.
This is a true story I heard here in Japan.
There was an old man who was sniffing high school girls bicycle seats
and licking them. He got arrested by the police recently.
That's like on a whole new scale and .... even to bad to say "WHY"...
That's right.
My name is Cathy! I am eternally 5 years old! - Why!?
That was a good one.
Hey I am Hayappe!
I am born in Tokyo. - Why? That's a lie.
Nice one.
- Nandeyanen feels good to say it. - It does, doesn't it!
You can just communicate with that.
That's the osaka dialect word I remember the most.
It's super fun guys.
Our next word is Akan...
WHAAAAYYY
Sorry, I just wanted to say it.
You weren't supposed to say that there...
It's just the word Akan.
Do you know what it means? - No!
That's it girl.
No, you can't. You musn't. It's not good.
Exactly that girl.
It means no.
But AKAN doesn't just mean no it's like...
You can also use it in the way of saying "ENOUGH!"
For example.
I can't eat more than that!
AKAN!
I've had enough.
Akan sounds somewhat cute.
If girls say Akan it's super cute.
You said that super cute right now.
So it's like NO and Don'T.
Or like "I've had enough."
We say that a lot.
Cathy, Akan suits you.
No.
Your pronunciation is good too. - Really?! Thanks.
Everyone let's practice this at home. AKAN!
For example!
I don't have a drivers license in Japan, but can I drive here anyways?
That's definitely a NO
That one? Okay let's go for that...
Cathy, can I borrow this apron?
No.
For example if someone is really moody.
Can I study? - No.
Can I play soccer? - No.
Can I watch the TV? - NO.
Can I use the microphone? - NO.
Can I breathe? - NO
Can I drink water? -NO
Can I eat food? - NO.
I'm gonna die...
Let's listen to his pronunciation one more time...
Nandeyanen Akan
Those are the two words that you can remember if you want
to show that you know some language from Okinawa...
No why did I say Okinawa again?! NOOOO
AKAN!
These are the words that you can use if you want to proof that you know a little bit
of Osakaben (dialect). Which comes in quite handy and popular if you
at the right time and the right place.
Don't use it in Tokyo, use it when you are over there.
In Osaka.
Those two words are very fun to use. We had a lot of fun using them.
Do you follow?
I have no clue what you're saying. - Ok,
We had a lot of fun using them anyways and you will have a lot of fun using them
If you have any cool ideas of what sentence to construct with
Nandeyanen and Akan, leave us a comment down below, we are looking
forward to your random comments and funny scenarios.
Also, if you wanna learn more about the Japanese language
we have a playlist with all that stuff, you should check out that playlist.
Right at the end of the video.
Yes, did you get that?
I don't get English at all.
That's NOT good.
Let's teach you some English. - Let's do an English class.
Let's do that.
See you guys! Okini!
