There is also an embedded copy of the video towards the bottom of the page, but that may not be available on your device for technical reasons. See also the text translations and the Kanji memories memory card.

And this is our video for the Kanji 酉 'the Rooster' (zodiac sign). Many sources do not list it in JLPT, some put it in N1. Useful to know though. 🐥🐥🐥#japanese #kanji #jlpt #japan #langtwt pic.twitter.com/b4SQB48r7T

These are the translations (English, with Kanji, just Hiragana and Katakana, Romaji) used in the video.

"I am looking forward to the year of the Rooster."

酉年 を楽しみにしています

とりどしをたのしみにしています

Toridoshi o tanoshimi ni shite imasu.

"The Rooster zodiac sign does not look like a bird."

の干支は鳥のように見えません

とりのえとはとりのようにみえません

Tori no eto wa tori no you ni miemasen.
