When I took Japanese in university, I was told watashi ("I") was used very rarely. Yet the first phrase we learn is this introduction.

I wasn't told onegai shimasu meant 'be kind to me' more so 'thank you'. So knowing this now, I interpret the phrase an apology almost for the speaker using watashi and talking about themselves. As a polite ending.

Its a fascinating language full of culture.

My son went to a Japanese immersion school. You did great. Ich mag solche Videos. Vielen Dank

[TheRealGanonKirby]

よくやった。最初は悪くない。そんなわけで始めました。

Or: Good job for your first try. I started with their channel at first, too, until I took up real lessons.

I love languages and these Videos you are doing are wonderful!!! ❤ thank you!! I am trying Russian as well as German!! I would love to recommend trying Russian!

[zeroforce]

Hehe Dave, you might want to try Serbian just for a challenge :D I could help you out if you want, you're a really cool guy ;)

I'm Japanese and I wanted to inform you about す (su) and し (shi) is pronounced like how you said in the video. The "u" in すis dropped, but you'd pronounce it if you were reading that letter individually. Similarly, the "i" in しis pronounced very subtly, but you'd very much hear it as "sh" in a sentence. In my image, you'd pronounce that "i" subtly like how native Germans quickly pronounce the "-ten" at the end of many words.

Unrelated, but could you do a video on Lindemann Ich hasse kinder?

I don’t know Japanese but it sounds like you’re doing pretty well! I would love to see you try some Polish if you ever want that 😂
