The last lady was very real about the situation. I get it! I took French for 6 years and I'm more fluent in Korean now than French 😂

For the last girl, don't worry bestie, I have been trying to learn Portuguese for the last 6 years and I still sound like a toddler.

[SunnyDallasRealtor]

Don’t worry I have just as hard of a time trying to pronounce Japanese words 😊

The last second guy has such a pleasant voice

Edit: second to last

The Rs and Ls are hard for Japanese. My Japanese dad went to college in the U.S. and has lived in the U.S. for 30 years and still has trouble with the Rs and Ls. People still understand what’s he’s trying to say so it’s not much of an issue

the longer i read, write, and speak Japanese as a native English speaker, the more i realize it is much more difficult to go from Japanese to English, not as much the other way around. learning from either perspective is certainly not easy by any means, but i sympathize with anyone trying to learn English from any part of the world as not their first language

[Acuriouscase]

how come most Japanese people have such nice voices? it's so pleasing to the ears

[MJou]

That just depends on individual interest on language learning
We don’t need English at all in daily life in Japan so no one actually try learning English as a language, we rather use English as a subject for tests

[natethegamelord]

as someone learning Japanese currently, its nice to know that the struggle is shared when trying to learn the opposite language

The guy with the green tie should do voice acting/over... his voice is soothing.😍

As an American, I can say that most of us Americans can understand people perfectly when they mixup L’s and R’s. Also, I’m always impressed by people who know multiple languages.

"Japanese have 'L' sound, we don't have 'R'"
Every Japanese-Learning book: "are you sure about that?"

[jademonass]

i would say japanese have a 'midway' sound that is in between L and R
It isnt just that they dont have one or the other, they have to separate a sound they already are used to saying as one

That last guy voice was like some Japanese anime character's 😂❤️

[NekoNyan]

Guy in the black jacket pronouncing the words perfectly, but still thinks it's quite hard. I love his pronunciation tho

[Shy-xmkn]

The one guy who seemed to pronounce both words easily is so fine, god damn. He’s a gorgeous man and his speaking voice was so soft yet masculine.

[dancampana]

there's a Filipino joke that went: the japanese (world war era) said "Japan love's the Philippines" but pronounce it like "Japan robs the

[cachorro]

Don't worry, we know what you are saying.

[chixkgoddess]

I just love listening to Japanese language

I've been learning English as a foreign language for the last 36 years but I've never felt satisfied with the level of my current English proficiency. So I can relate to the hardship the Japanese went through in learning English which is not spoken in daily basis.
