Script for Nihongo Dekimasu

StonerPenguin · (#1 (**permalink**))

Hello ladies and gents,
I'm working on a project for Japaneseclass.jp, they said they want videos with vocabulary lists and things and I would really like to subtitle the Nihongo Dekimasu series in Romaji and kana/kanji for those learning japanese (it's already subbed in English). However, my own Japanese listening comprehension ability is HORRIBLE considering how well I can read in Japanese, it makes no sense D: (I self-taught myself Japanese, so I'm only good 'on paper' so to speak) I'm doing this to help others and myself, so those who can understand spoken Japanese well, I greatly apreciate help on making a script for this YouTube - Nihongo Dekimasu Ep 1 part 1/3

It doesn't matter which system of writing it's in

Any takers? I know this is kinda cheesy, but it's a helpful little show~

Well, if you say your own listening comprehension is awful, perhaps this would be a good opportunity for you.

I think it would be good for you to write out a script of what you think they are saying and post it here, then other people can watch it and correct you.

I'm also saying this because it is your first post here and I'm not sure if you will find anyone who will want to write out the whole script for you.

I can understand subbing it in kana/kanji, but why are they subbed in English? It provides a great oppertunity for contextual, 100% immersed learning in Japanese - better result. The English totally kills it IMO.

Yeah, you're right, I actually planned on doing the whole thing by myself, but I wanted to see if some uber awesome fluent person would pop out a script and make it look easy lol, But I was just being lazy, sorry.

Here we go, I'm kinda busy ATM but I'll do it 10 seconds at a time (So it's easier to time the subs later on)

I thought 手伝い too, but wasn't sure if i was mishearing.

StonerPenguin · (#7 (**permalink**))

You guys are so awesome! Thank you so much Kyle! You too yuriyuri! Ah, so I wasn't the only one who heard 'otesai', although, logically it has to be 'no tetsudai' (の手伝い) I just don't hear that D: But atleast I have you guys to help

Before I was thinking "Crap! I'm barely 10 seconds in and there's already words I can't figure out!" eheh I can't tell you how much I appreciate your help.

And Kyle, yes, there's 25 episodes. I plan on doing the whole thing although I probably won't post it all here lest I be a-spammin' yur boards.

I just wanted help for the first bit to get me started.

Allow me to make a few corrections if it isn't too late.

You don't call your own action 優しい.　That would be too un-Japanese a thing to do.

You're right. I felt weird about that 優しく. Thanks! Also, I made those transcription errors as I basically was typing as I was listening, and I didn't go back and re-listen to most of it.

Hmm, 手伝い is a noun (Although there is the verb 手伝う) but I don't hear an う sound so it must be a noun right? In which case を wouldn't be used, right?
I dunno, I think it's エリンの勉強の手伝い, beacause they're saything the robot is Erin's study helper. Although listening to it again it sounds more like you're right lol. I guess they just left off the する in お手伝いする

And it might be 優しく because the narrator isn't talking about himself, but Honigon. But you're probably right.

Also at about a minute in Erin says something about her school, Kyle wrote この学校ね and I thought she said 佳な学校, what doth a third opinion think?

Also, I edited my 2nd post to include the dialouge of the rest of the video however, I cannot figure out the teacher's words (About 2 minutes in to about 2:40) He doesn't speak clearly enough D: So If you guys could help me with that I'd really appreciate it.
