If you thought Sakura was useless, you were WRONG. She served as a brilliant example in our lessons.

More I watch, knowing you are long gone... More I become determined to learn from what you have left for us. RIP.

[omczmlh]

I just restarted over to learn Japanese after having used inefficient methods during several month, and I want to thank you for all of that you offered to us. RIP, Cure Dolly.

It feels strange watching so many videos from someone who I know is no longer with us, but at the same time it feels like by doing so I'm honoring her wishes and all of the work she's done for the Japanese language learning world. I hope her videos will continue to help people for a long time to come, and I know that it's what she would want.

I watched many of your videos back when I was first starting out. While I learned a lot, I didn't fully grasp the concepts, and a lot of the information went in from one ear and out the other.
Now, over a year later since I began learning, these videos make a ton of sense and have helped clarify A LOT. Thank you sensei

[israelosilva]

The idea of a target made my life so much easier now !!!
I cannot express how easy you make people's lives giving such easy concept to see something that otherwise doesn't make sense .
thank you a billion times.

[worldofconspiracy]

She is one of the best teachers I've ever met in my entire life.
Not even talking about teaching Japanese either

[retronickmusic]

I was sitting here, drinking my morning coffee, and thinking, I wonder if Cure Dolly will have a new lesson this morning...ding! There it is! ありがとうございます！

[xbounty]

Well that's nifty. Utilizing に for this long range of targets really avoids the ambiguity and inconsistency I'm accustomed to.

[cndnkyuti]

I started learning Japanese a long time ago and have been able to retain some of what I learned. However, years later, learning Japanese became less of a priority due to growing adult responsibilities. It also became more daunting and almost impossible to progress further with confidence.

I went to class once a week for 3 years at a high-school opendoor facility when I was a teenager. Shortly after graduating high-school, I enrolled to study opendoor Japanese classes at a local collage for 1.5 years (1 class every week.)

After watching (and rewatching) some of your videos, I am able to not only have comprehensible review for certain things I already know, but to have confidence to continue learning Japanese again.

どうもありがとうございました。 :)

3:48 this makes so so much more sense than what's I'm taught at my class

[federicaf]

I‘d like to triple-thumbs-up this video for every time I watched it and learned and understood more

[toomas]

Is this correct?
さくらが悪くなった
Sakura became bad
Love how helpful your channel is, it has helped me so much to understand how Japanese is logical.

[infiniteshay]

It's amazing what a change in perspective can do for learning. I never thought about thinking of verbs before に as nouns before even though it makes total sense in english.

[pazispeace]

As we say in my country... you are such a coco!!! It means smart hehe, thank you for your lessons

[redcloud]

Just found this channel while looking for some revision videos.... Needless to say I've subscribed and look forward to your future content. These are some of the easiest to understand and most helpful videos I've found so far.
ありがとうございます

[IchEsseKonsolen]

Maybe we could say that に marks targets of the engine? So for 行く it marks the target of "the going", whereas for いる it marks the location as to where the subject (the が carriage) is put into existence. Does that make sense?

[sitisarabintiamirulazhar]

First of all, I just wanted to say that your videos are superb and had helped me better understand Japanese sentence structure than ever before. Secondly I have a question: Does the sentence "Sakura ga natta" correct without adding the object of what Sakura turned into? And if it does what does the sentence mean in Japanese context?

[rtzcbgf]

Absolutely great channel! Superb explanations!
And you don't have similar video about で particle?
