Japanese Pitch Accent┃Sound Like a Native and Avoid Embarrassment!

Support Misa on Patreon - www.patreon.com/japaneseammo Japanese has a lot of homonyms. For example, "ame" can mean "candy", "rain" or even "Knit it!". In writing, kanji helps you distinguish them. (E.g. ame - 雨 = rain, 飴 = candy, 編め = Knit it) When speaking though, you cannot rely on kanji. So this is where the pitch accent plays a role!
