Hey guys! Val is back with me again today. Yeah!
I've been trying to think of like really cool videos,
so I can do like while I'm here in Canada with Belle.
I was looking some of my friends videos, and I got really cool idea from my friend, Hannah,
who has a sweet channel that you should check out, I will put it here,
she mainly does like rap, song covers, and she's so awesome,
and so yes check out her channel.
But she has a really cool video, was doing the same with her brother,
and she asks same what he thinks these Japanese words mean,
and the words sound like English, but to English speakers,
they don't normally make much sense.
So I'm gonna test on Val today. Yeah.
This should be interesting. I got a list on my iPhone, that I gonna look at.
OK, are you ready?
Alright. Ready.

You can't say hocchikisu to English speaking people,
they'll have no idea what you're talking about.

It comes from winker, yeah, but it's not winker.
Aww, sorry, I really don't know about this one.

So good work.
