Here are OTHER Japanese words Americans use! czcams.com/video/HCcBgLffzc8/video.html
Sorry everyone! Fujisan 富士山 is different from "san" I mention in video! "Fuji-san" san part is another way to say "mountain"! I was only focusing on sound "san", not kanji!! When my brain think in English, I suddenly forget Japanese!! すみません！
i think it's hilarious how you made a starwars reference in the joke about the history of kancho!🤣🤣🤣
@@tylerkovalskas9780 You are a true Star Wars fan!
Could you talk about different Japanese “accents” please? To me, your accent is the most common one I have heard but I am aware that there regional dialects. Like adding syllables at the end of sentences.
@@MrsEats Japanese lesson XD
I bet you only learned kendo as a way to further perfect your kancho technique.
I love how half of Japanese culture is grace and beauty with flowers and tea ceremonies and art, and the other half is stuff like monsters with eyeballs up their butt and people farting on each other.
The Tea Ceremony, grace, flowers, beautiful scents,
....just don't invite a Vicar to have more tea... LOL
(perhaps Americans do not have or use the same expression in Britain 'more tea vicar?' to denote politely, a muffled and not too strong fart being detected?)
@@razor1uk610 I had not heard of this expression before, but now I eagerly await a suitable opportunity in which to use it. I'm hearing it in my mind as Hyacinth Bucket would say it.
@@pauls7318 wow you haven't before...?! ..ok sorry, I think originally it was from the Ealing Comedy era of films with Alister Simms (..am purely guessing based on childhood memories in the 80s/ 90s..of reruns of Ealing films)
You could try The Vicar of Dibley or Father Ted (Mrs.Doyle nearly always has offers of more tea refused,) for more modern ecumenical tea jokes.
...as well it's such a polite term even the Queen's sometimes be said to wonder if one of guests awaiting her nervously before the due time, hasn't had to visit the porcelain by using a variation of it - allegedly.
本音 and 建前 at its finest 👌🏻😂
This is why I love Japan... Culture respect and values mixed with degeneracy.... *_Literally me_*
That Japanese history lesson nearly killed me. "Japan was a peaceful and happy place"; until one day everyone decided to start farting on each other. I haven't laughed so much in a long time. And you even threw in a Star Wars reference for good measure!
Kancho saved Japan and YOU!
I cracked up at the 'thermal exhast port'
I started choking on my laughter when this story started. So freaking over the top and I love it.
I love Mrs. Eats! Always entertaining! 💜
😊
"Then everything changed when the EXPLOSIVE WIND OF DEATH ARMY attacked"
Very dangerous gang. Beware.
I was looking for this comment 😂
Definitely not the day the earth stood still then hey? Start a gang called Rolling Thunder maybe? 😅😆
@@MrsEats how did you put your face in the comment
@@MrsEats Is this a real story or something you created? Its great either way.
“Oil Tycoon” shows picture of guy with giant olive oil 😂😂😂 this is why i love Mrs Eats!!
He has world #1 supply of oil!!
@@MrsEats maybe he owns the most successful 🫒 vineyard in the world and has a factory that produces the purest olive oils… 🙃💭
Omg I seriously didn‘t get it 🤣🤣🤣 boy she got me. Now I feel stupid 🥲😂
Jamie Olivers wet dream 😂😂
Right?! Nearly choked on my root beer 🤣 I have learned now to not drink or eat anything while watching. Or when my roommate is asleep! You can't help but laugh out loud!
Teaching English in rural Hokkaido as a JET ALT I was warned about kancho and I kept an eye on where my students were lest they try to get behind me. One elementary school boy managed to sneak up and get me though. I responded by giving him a wedgie that lifted him off the ground and told him that was the American "kancho" and none of the kids who witnessed this ever tired to "kancho" me again.
LOL!! The power of the wedgie: Hopefully his y-fronts were suspended a good couple of feet or more off the ground??!
lmfao
Skidmark city! I'm so bad, xD
In 710 A.D. Japan was a PEACEFUL COUNTRY
Minutes later: Release the FART BOMB
710 AD was terrible time for Japan...
We only use “sensei” for our martial arts teachers or karate teachers.
In the US we know that sensei is used for professionals in Japan, but it isn't recognized in English so we wouldn't use it for professionals here.
I would never take fake lessons from a silly man in pajamas who insisted i call him sensei. I don't want to learn bullshito in the McDojo.
@@Arigator2 I'm not sure what you mean. There are real karate masters who aren't japanese. You don't have to be Asian to study the fighting arts, just like you don't have to be Italian to make pasta.
@@SalvableRuin - There are real karate masters? Maybe. It's not 100% fake like some others but a lot of it is fake. The average karate instructor makes people worse at fighting.
@@Arigator2 You sound like you watch more CZcams videos than you actually spend training.
Being called a maggot seems more like a compliment to me after watching a _variety_ of videos.
Don't watch bad video online!
@@MrsEats Yes ma'am
Right?😅
Ohohoho? Your also developing a fetish? I agree with you!
Same
The way languages grow and evolve like they are living things has always fascinated me. I did not know “tycoon” is Japanese in origin, but it does not surprise me. English, American English in particular, is well known to borrow words from many different languages.
English is a mutt language
English being 3 languages in a trench coat this should not surprise nor confuse anyone
The Kancho Hancho is back and teaching us some Japanese history they don't often cover in schools 🤣🤣🤣
The Explosive Wind Of Death Army, tour dates to be announced soon!
You can only get true KNOWLEDGE here!!
Sounds like the name of a metal band.
Yet there is soooo much to be covered
Japanese: “We respect tables and floors by not putting feet or shoes on them”
Also Japanese: “Let me show you bukkake and Kancho”
😅😅😅
The Kombucha thing is probably the same reason people here incorrectly call teppanyaki a hibachi. Someone ignorant screwed it up in the translation.
Teppanyaki and shichirin are both called "hibachi" while neither one is.
That's not translation, that's just using the wrong word altogether. Loan words can get weird when that kind of mistake happens.
This is kind of the rule when adopting a word or idea from one language or culture into another
The kombucha reminded me of how a lot of people confuse french macaron cookies with macaroons (the coconut cookies) in America so even people in other countries now mistakenly call them macaroons, just like Europeans call mushroom tea kombucha now following US example.
When I was learning Japanese, I was also surprised by some English words with different meanings in Japan--like "mansion." In the USA it's a massive house that rich people live in. In Japan, it's an apartment complex. Funny how borrow words in the USA and Japan somehow change.
Yes! I totally agree with you that there are lots of wasei eigo (words borrowed from English)in Japanese! sometimes it's very funny!
French has Maison for Small House and Manoir for Large House; the English some how conflated/blended these words together to Get Mansion. Chateau would be closer to what Americans call a Mansion (especially one on a large land holding).
Why do I always think that the Mrs Eat and Mrs Kancho is a complete different person🤧✨🙌‼️
Yes, she is a different person! I don't know who she is or what her name is, but somehow she appears in my videos!
@@MrsEats OMGG Should I call the police😳⛓ LMAOO but to be honest I love her tho🤧❤
@@MrsEats LOL
@@MrsEats or are you appearing in HER videos...? 🤷🏻♂️😁
@@aprincessrubonal2552
Bold of you to assume the cops will go anywhere near her.
I use to have a Dogi, he was a purebred Cocker Spaniel.
The kancho part made me laugh way too much, especially the hidden thermal vent that will detonate the core part... lol
also your heart necklace is super cute!
If I ever go to Japan I hope I don’t fart and cause diplomatic crisis.
Someone might think you are Neo Explosive Wind of Death Army member!
You could always do what bush senior did and vomit on the Japanese diplomats by accident.
@@CHITTUMSTEVEP Are you sure that it was an accident?
@@meisteremm yeah sushi didn't sit well with him
😂😂😂
Just want to say: you seem like a genuine and nice lady Mrs Eats. Never change! :)
Thank you Chris!
@@MrsEats you're welcome
I second this! ❤
I was under the impression that Mount Fuji isn't called Fujisan to show respect, but that it's just coincidental because the 音読み reading for mountain 山 is サン.
OH you are right!! I was only focusing on sound "san", not kanji!! When my brain think in English, I suddenly forget Japanese!! Thank you!!
Also, Mount Rushmore is known as Mister Rushmore ( ラシュモアさん ) to show more respect to the four-headed presidential mountain of the United States
@@atomicdancer Again, in this case the さん doesn't mean Mr. It's the onyomi reading of mountain 山. ラシュモアさん literally means Mount Rushmore.
Sorry, DrNordo, I forgot to add this : 😜
@@atomicdancer oh lol gotcha. Sry lol. Probably would have recognized the joke if I'd had my coffee
Tycoon actually means the company head who monopolized an industry. Also known as a magnate. They are a bit screwy in the head but ok otherwise. The word is from the 1920s which changed into the word magnate over time as the times changed. Kombucha isn’t technically a mushroom as the thing is technically a fungus as it has no gills to release spores. It’s a plant thing that needed explanation.
"Tycoon, huh?"
Mushrooms and Fungi are the same thing. So, yes; Technically it's a fungi. Unless you're saying it's more akin to a single-cell-organism (proist... something like that- been a while since Biology) or a plant.
Quick Edit: Mrs. Eats also says they put Seawead in the Kombucha. I learned in that class Seaweed ain't a plant, nor is it a fungi. It's the Protist (the single-cell-organism). So, it wouldn't be totally out of the realm for it to actually not be a drink with fungi in it.
@@HolyDemonRune Mushrooms are the reproductive organs of the fungi (like flowers). So all mushrooms are a part of fungi, but not all fungi are mushrooms.
@@windmage0168 So is a flower not a plant? That argument makes no sense. Mushrooms are fungi. Go ask biology teacher, or biologist. Go look it up. I just did to double check... but I'll give you a clue.
The answer to "Is a Flower a plant" is the same same answer to "is a Mushroom a fungus?"
@@HolyDemonRune Yea.
Kancho is a lifestyle. Its how foreigner expats make Japanese friends. The Shibuya Cross Koncho Festa!
Yes, but if you do it in Shibuya Crossing, you will go to jail!
@@MrsEats Opportunity to make even more friends!
@@edamameme1789 hahaha comedy gold
@@edamameme1789 (to your second statement, not the original; I thumbs-up the original.) I... can't decide if this deserves a thumbs up or down. That's hard to make that dilemma with a simple statement.
Interesting. I've never heard umami be used to describe savory foods. I've always thought of it as a work to describe something incredibly flavorful. So flavorful no other words could describe the flavor.
Before Savory was thought to be a blend of Moderately Salty and Slightly Sour. It was a Japanese Chemist that discovered that Savory foods bonded to separate receptors than salty and sour. So people just started using the word used by the Japanese chemist.
Tycoon is used to mean they were the big kings of their respective industries. So it's use is appropriate.
These always make me question everything honestly. I don’t know if it is different elsewhere but I always thought umami referred to fish flavor. So you would say “It has a strong umami flavor” meaning it has a strong fish/seafood flavor.
Umami is very flexible word!
I never even heard of "kancho" before... It is now added to the things I can never un-know. お前たち、どこ中？
I never understood the "kombucha" thing either. I also thought it would have, you know, kombu in it.
We also use "sakura" (although we pronounce it something like "suh-KOO-ruh") and "tsunami" (we say "soo-NAH-mee", because we can't pronounce "ts" at the front of words easily).
And in Hawaii there's lots of extra Japanese words, like they just say "shoyu" instead of "soy sauce", for example.
カンチョーはゲームではありません!
That is easily the best animated fart joke in history.
I've lived in the states my whole life and nobody calls anybody "sensei".
I think if we did though it could possibly create a sense of respect for people we would address that to.
Also had NO idea that katana meant sword, I've always known as katana as a specific Japanese sword
This video has been so helpful!! I want to go out and research more on Japanese culture and how to respect it and appreciate more. Thank you so much for sharing this knowledge
Yep, the Kanji for sword is 刀, which is pronounced katana. Interestingly enough, other kanji that incorporate 刀 as a dominant radical (kanji component) often have meanings related to cutting, dividing, and separating. For example:
刃 ha, edge of a blade
分 bun, part or segment
切 setsu, cut
@@DrNordo thank you for sharing this!! This is so interesting that it's more of a flexible term
Thank you so much! I am learning as I make videos too! It's so interesting to find some similarities as well as differences in other cultures!!!
@@MrsEats I love learning about new cultures / understanding how someone's background is different than mine. It really is a blessing to learn and talk with so many people around the world!!
@@amandamelville1619 I totally agree with you!! Let’s enjoy the differences!
Loving the Star Wars reference, all hail the Kancho Hancho
Hi David! Nice catch!
Considering 先生 I was actually curious before about the more literal meaning, since the kanji is also used in time related stuff like 先週 / 先月. I mean for
先輩 it seems more clear to understand where it is coming from :D
Did Mrs. Kancho teach Kakashi of the Sharingan the Hidden Leaf Secret Finger Technique: One Thousand Years of Death?
He was my former student. He failed my lessons. Reason: weak anal muscles.
You were Kakashi's teacher? No wonder he is so powerful in the art of One Thousand Years of Death
@@MrsEats eeek
Sensei is really only used when talking about martial arts instructors in America in a serious manor. People usually use it in a condescending way like "Ooh great Sensei show me your ways" the same condescending way we use "meister"
What would we do without Mrs. Eats teaching us how we misuse Japanese wrongs in English. But I am mildly traumatized by the farting attacks.
You can only over come the trauma by mastering Kancho tequnique.
Japanese misused alot of English word s in Japan for example the word Taxi they pronounce Taku-shii so you literally need to mispronounced English words to be understood by japanese.
@@elmalanmalan2175 That's not the same. Pronunciation difficulty is very different from using entirely the wrong word.
Pronunciation (basic example): Potato or potato? Similar but not same pronunciation (sometimes quite different, depending on your dialect).
Word (comparable example): Pizza or Lasagna? Totally wrong word.
English speakers mispronounce almost every Japanese word they come across and it is painful to hear. Seriously, the only frustrating thing of watching Mrs. Eats' earlier videos was hearing the terrible pronunciations in the videos about Japan she was reviewing!
@@JarieSuicune I don't think so is more common in japanese than foreigners
@@elmalanmalan2175 no pronunciation is a product of the phonetics of a language. In Japanese, the phonetics are mainly consonant + vowel (CvCvCv, etc), therefore certain sounds and words are difficult to say and have to be adjusted for the language. This happens in any languages that have different phonetic systems.
In Australia I only really heard 先生 to address a martial arts teacher when I was young, but it seemed known as a way of saying teacher...
Also, the info about Senpai was interesting. I actually have a Chinese colleague at work who is quite a few years older than me, but comes to me a bit for help who calls me Senpai sometimes although a little jokingly as we both watch anime and are trying to learn Japanese. So it's a word I'd kinda just thought of as your senior, but really hadn't looked into it.
On another note, Kancho story was hilarious :)
先妻 means ex-wife lol.
先 previous
妻 wife
@@DrNordo hilarious. You just can't trust writing comments at 11:00pm on a Friday night. 先生
ありがとうございます
Thanks :)
Thank you! I see! You call Martial Arts teacher "sensei"!
The only teacher we call Sensei in my high school is my english/japanese/russian teacher. It's kind of an "inside joke" among her and her students too, because we're the only ones who call her Sensei and then there's always that someone who just looks at us with the "tf is wrong with you guys" look when we do so 😅
The art reminds me of the Junji Ito’s “Gyo”
Oh! I don't know it! I will look for it now! Thank you!
@Dicky Welshman nothing to do with the style. It’s the content. Gyo, especially in the second half, features a “death stench.” One of the characters begins producing more of this death stench. From *every* orifice.
I only found your channel about a week ago but it is quite funny and entertaining. I visited Japan in March of 2017 for 2 weeks, loved every minute of it. My friend was there teaching English in Toyama, she showed me around Toyama and Kanazawa. People were very friendly and the food was great. I can also relate to a lot of the topics you cover as I got to experience them on my trip. Love your videos keep them coming!
Thank you for sharing your experience in Japan! Yes, Kanzawa is such a beautiful place!! I'm glad that you had a great time there! Once everything goes back to normal, we'd like to travel around japan again!
Wow literally learning so much. Hope you make more of these videos in the future
I'm glad to hear that! We are gonna make more of sun and educational videos for you guys!
Weird, I never heard about the legendary fingers of love on NHK
this video took a twist i wasn't expecting, but i love it lol this was great mrs eats!! can't wait for the next one
Thank you! Japanese history is very important subject!
The kancho section was brilliant!
The way I know I'm getting old; there's nobody I can call sempai anymore.
I love the music you put in the background of your videos
I love these videos! I love words and had no idea we adapted so many Japanese words. I just discovered your channel a few days ago and I am loving it. Very informative and fun. :)
ms. kancho hancho makes me feel a certain special way
I am so glad that CZcams suggested this channel. So informative, entertaining, and funny! Now I am subscribed.
Thank you so much! I'm so happy to hear that you have fun with us! Let's enjoy together!
Love your channel.
Great humor, very entertaining
I love you. The kancho lesson was so funny, you made my day.
Your video's are an addiction for me now! Love your personality.
Wow! Thank you so much!
Love the humor in your videos, always catches me by surprise.
One of the best channels on CZcams ever I swear! My Japanese is getting better too, I am able to understand the Japanese, without reading the subtitles ^_^
Hey, that's so cool! Keep it up!がんばれ！
Quality content. Very much appreciated.
Thank you!!
This is seriously one of the funniest channels I’ve watched!
I had to take a break from the internet after the Kancho explanation 😂😂
My jaw was dropped from start to finish 😨
I wanna see Mrs. Eats do a whole livestream as Kancho Hancho somewhere.
You guys should be the top channel on here, I'm crying🤣🤣🤣🤣. My wrestler friend called kancho 'checking their oil' glad I never wrestled.
Explosive Wind of Death - the most deadly Wind technique known to man
Very informative 👍
Thank you!!
That switch up lol love your content
In North America, I've never heard of kombucha being mushroom tea. Here it is made with black or green tea. It's nice and fizzy, so people often refer to it as the original soda before all the health benefits were removed and tons of sugar were added. It makes so much more sense when you broke it down in the Japanese as konbu and cha. Love your videos. Thank you!
Wow! I had no idea that you guys can make mushrooms tea with green tea as well! I really would like to try it someday! Thank you so much for the information! I learned new thing!!!
Well for the Kombucha in the American language we use it to explain a drink produced by fermenting sweet tea with a culture of yeast and bacteria. A lot of countries share the same words and I guess it's something that we all share
some of these characters i recognize in Chinese (I'm a Jamaican Chinese Student) could you make a video talking about the similarities and differences in the two countries? Characters, Traditions, Art ... anything you want ... Kanji characters are very interesting to me because of this. LOVE YOUR VIDEOS! >.
Nice!!! Another entertaining video!!!
Mr. Eats is lucky to have you.
Thank you Sensei for this video :) I learned so much.
This channel is so fun! You’re doing a great job mrs.Eats, keep it up :)
Thank you, Tech Nerd!!
You have solved a mystery to me that I've had for a very long time... With the word umami! Thank you!! It makes so much more sense now!
1:00, fun fact, tycoon is used really heavily to describe games where you own a business and raise it to the 'top', its pretty much an economic simulation. For example, Zoo
Tycoon, Rollercoaster Tycoon, Restaurant Tycoon and etc.
300 likes and 0 dislikes is what we like to see.
Hearing real kombucha is full of Umami has me intrigued. MSG is my life. Umami is my favourite sense of taste. I can live without sour or bitter, but not Umami.
Thank you so much!! I’m very happy you like our video too! Japanese use a lot of MSG! So I think you will like Japanese konbucha too! It’s really good!
This is lovely! Thank you!
Another great video, these bring me joy
3:24 Uncle Rodger reference, I see u!!
Nice catch!!
These edits are underrated lmao
Omg.shes so naturally funny.i love watching your channel.
very interesting, thank you mr seats
Kombucha for me is "symbiotic culture of bacteria and yeast (SCOBY) " when i own this one, it have name Alfred and i was just feeding him with black tea :) similar with "tibetian moshroom" in milk, milk one was Marie :D I was growing them and keep long time in fridge :) they was my happy moshrooms, i think because we keep them and feed them we must have even special pronounce for name :D
OMG, I love your videos, so entertaining, fun and informative! so glad I somehow found these this week while watching some of my favorite Band-Maid, Scandal and Bridear music videos!
I love the konchi general skit 😍😍💖💖🙏🏽🙏🏽 arigatou zaimas senpai
Explaining kancho with Star Wars trench run dialogue makes Mrs. Eats my favorite person ever.
You are the real kancho jedi.
this was both hilarious and educational. thank you
Thank you!
Mrs. Eats always puts me in a good mood ,she so funny😊😂
cool video Mr. seats!
着 can be used "alone" as a counter for a set of clothes; well not quite alone because of course there is a number before in that case.
In that usage, it doesn't have any martial art connotations - more often than not, it's rather fashion - and is pronounced chaku.
oh lord you crack me up... glad I found your channel
Thanks for the new tea suggestion. I know it’s for older people, but I like trying new things. Anyway, we call kinoko cha Kabucha because of the history behind it. It was “discovered” by a German in Japanese as he was examining seaweed to which the Japanese at that time called Kabu. I don’t know how it traveled but that’s the story.
Second, we in the US don’t call teachers or people of other profession sensei. The only thing close is calling one a professional and that’s more of a complement than a word used to be polite.
Hello there! I wasn't sure how else to get you a message so I thought I would leave a comment here on your latest video. I just wanted you to know how much we thoroughly enjoy watching your channel! Your content is always very refreshing and entertaining and we really love watching you. Please keep up the wonderful videos and we look forward to seeing more of them in the future!
Love your videos mrs eats!
Thank you
No one in the West would call wakizashi a katana
I think kombucha misnomer came from the thick layer of gel which is the mushroom, it resembles seaweed as it’s kinda filmy and slippery
This is very enjoyable
I feel like when you got to the Kancho History lesson, you were trolling. 😂 I’ll have to do some research. Thanks as always Mrs. Eats. I hope you and Mr. Eats have a great weekend!
Petri!! Thank you for checking in!
Kancho hancho comes and goes suddenly. It’s out of my control! I hope your health condition is great!
You too have a wonderful weekend! Thank you always!!
@@MrsEats, you’re welcome and I’m doing soooo much better! I’m still being somewhat cautious but u think I’m ready to start back to my little walks before or after work^^
I hope you’re doing well and feeling better as well!
@@Petri- Wow!! I'm so happy to hear you are getting much better!! Yaaay!!!! Yes, it's time to enjoy a little walk! Let's stay healthy and safe!!
@@MrsEats, absolutely!!! Thank you so much for your encouragement! It really means a lot! You and Mr. Eats stay safe as well!
Correct me if i am wrong but there are actually two different kanji for swords in Japan. Katana, tsurugi, and they have different connotations. tsurugi or ken usually denote a double edged sword where as katana usually denote a single edged sword. I mean one of the most famous swords from japanese mythology, kusanagi no tsurugi, is not a katana. yes there are many types of katana but katana is not a catch-all word for all swords.
9:19
Didn't see that one coming lol
(They're great btw)
The explosive death wind army of 710 ad. omg my sides hurt lol. thats the funniest thing ive heard all year
What a surprise to know that Mrs. Eats practices kendō! I will move to Japan in April and live there for a couple years, so I would love to have keiko with you someday.
Mrs eats channel teaching japanese history!? That was so funny
Maybe I should start REAL Japanese history channel!
@@MrsEats I'd love that! There is a lot to learn and we westerners know basically nothing about Japan's unification, the sentou jidai and all the stuff you had to learn in school that we think are interesting lol
you have a great, sly sense of humor
I was really confused with what umami flavor was/tasted like. Thank you for explaining. ☺ And by the end of your explanation about Kancho, I got an add that said "We must preserve our legacy" (trailer "Foundation" series) I can't! 😂
Oh god i laughed so hard at the koncho story, "exhaust port"🤣🤣
I love how お前達 is translated as "maggots." Gets the point across better I think.
I like that too.
I love your videos !!!
Thank you! Hope you enjoyed the video!
