Lesson 1: Japanese made easy! What schools never teach. The core Japanese sentence -organic Japanese

Every Japanese sentence has the same core. When you understand it you have Japanese made easy, but the textbooks never teach it. Cure Dolly introduces Japanese as it should have been taught. This is organic Japanese from scratch, not the mongrel Japanese the schools and textbooks teach.

Sincere thanks to all Cure Dolly's patrons, supporters, students and fans.

This video has hand-made subtitles (English, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese) - so if you find my slightly non-human voice difficult, please turn them on from the settings at the bottom of the video window.
(Well all right completely non-human. But not a bad imitation, I thought). Thanks to Yanna-san for adding the Portuguese subtitles.

Some years ago I came across this channel and never really tried that much.

Today I decided to finally do it and learned she passed away.
I'll make her proud.

[drunkenarsonist]

Man, this is the first video I'm watching and I scroll down to the comment sections, just to find that the creator has passed. I hope the people close to her are well and I feel sad I never discovered this channel earlier. Thank you.

[alexrowley]

My God, someone who actually explains the structure. THANK YOU SO MUCH

Edited: Oct 9, 2021. After the devastating news of Cure Dolly's demise.

I would like to thank you from the bottom of my heart, for discovering you and for this wonderful knowledge that you have brought. Thank you so much, I really can't thank you enough! You have taught me more than just Japanese. I will cherish it for the rest of my life. How regretful that I wish I had said these words a little earlier. I am truly sorry.

Goodbye, Cure Dolly. You will be missed.

I only found this channel today (06/01/2022) and thought, "Oh, this will be good for my Japanese school club! The explanations are pretty simple to follow!" and so subscribed.

Then I noticed her last posted video mentioned being unable to post videos for a time and I thought, "Ah, at this time that's understandable. That's okay. I'll greet and thank her properly when she returns."

Then I learned I'll never have that chance.

From one teacher to another, rest in peace, Dolly. I promise you your lessons will continue to help students, and you'll live on that way.

Rest in Peace wonderful アンドロイド先生. We will never forget you. I discovered this video by YouTube recommendations long time ago and since then I was hooked. I have watched many of your videos up to 5 times for sure and I am pretty sure without you, I would have given up on Japanese. But now I actually speak usable Japanese and have so much fun doing it. To everyone new here: if you have an analytic mind, stay here and watch her videos. It’s unlike anything you will find anywhere else. It will change EVERYthing and you will be speaking Japanese AND having the confidence to make your own sentences because you will finally UNDERSTAND what you are doing. No other source will get you there like this channel. You left us way too early. I can just say a million thanks and love to you - and we shall meet again one day, in the Japanese studying section of the next world. <3

"I expect this channel to grow rather large" Damn she knew

[closotezuka]

Without these lessons I would have given up learning Japanese years ago. To dedicate yourself so studiously to teaching outside the box is truly noble. Rest in peace, sensei.

[darius]

For you, Cure Dolly Sensei, I'll learn Japanese. I'll learn it through and through, and I'll never put it down. Even when it seems like I've mastered the language and have nothing left to learn, I won't stop. This one goes it to you, you beautiful soul.

[autorb]

Ga be sounding like an urban legend here. "In some sentences we're not able to see ga, but it's always there, and It's always doing the same job"

[osuosuosaka]

Dear Cure Dolly Sensei,
Quite recently I took the JLPT N4 on a whim and passed it rather well, and I just want to say it wouldn't have been possible without your channel. Your posts and replies have done so much for my understanding of Japanese. I still think it's the clearest channel out there.
本当にありがとうございます

[ElectricDragonfly]

Many thanks for teaching Japanese so very clearly! Here are my practice sentences:

The bird flies.
とりがとぶ

The girl sings.
おんなのこがうたう

The woman is Japanese.
おんなのひとがにほんじんだ

Sakura is a girl.
さくらがおんなのこだ

Ice cream is tasty!
あいすくりむがおいしいね

The pen is blue.
ぺんがあおい

PS: I'm really enjoying "Alice in Kanjiland". It's a brilliant teaching method!

[technic]

Thank you for everything, Cure Dolly.

[ishaquilleoneal]

I'm sad to hear of your passing, upon just finding your Channel. It really is promising and I think I will learn a lot from these courses you made. You seemed like a wonderful teacher and probably have helped a lot of people and soon I might also find this very helpful. The work and all of your efforts to teach everyone Japanese, are deeply appreaciated. Thank you! R.I.P. Cure Doly.

[jackloninzeta]

I'm glad she doesn't explain what it is but explains what it does, makes things easier to understand. like が only explained what it does.

[Kickflips]

This just blew my mind. I've been studying off and on for about a year. Sentence structure has been the most frustrating part. THANK YOU!!

[notreal]

I was trying to learn Japanese but it seemed complicated af. This video literally explained a whole book worth of knowledge in 8:40 minutes and it's really easy to understand. Thank you.

[robertwhitaker]
