Speak Like a Pirate in JapaneseFor those of you who don’t know me I have been learning Japanese for a while now. I had a hard time finding a good Japanese tutor in Texas, so out to the net I went where I became muddled in the time waster known as youtube.com and found Koichi who has some hilarious English and Japanese vblogs about learning Japanese.

Here is my favorite that I would like to share with you all. This is for native Japanese speakers to understand ‘like a pirate day’ that we geeks enjoy and gives some handy phrases and ways of speaking English in pirate-like ways. Just watch it and you will see how universal humor truly is.
