Hakata Dontaku Festival 2009 ２００９年博多どんたく港まつり - Korean  

Posted by Unknown in






Had the pleasure of participating in the famous Dontaku Festival with my classmates at NILS. Dontaku comes from a Dutch word, "Zondag" which also means "Sunday", or in this case "Holiday". On this day, people from all over Japan gather to watch as residents fill the streets clapping rice paddles and playing shamisen. All in all, it's a good day. Music is by Kevin MacLeod, from the infamous incompetech.com. More information on NILS can be found at their website, www.nils.gr.jp Follow Me On Twitter www.twitter.com Have you seen our dance lately? www.youtube.com

『どんたく5/3・4』と『港祭り5/5』は別物です。
福岡市役所が勝手にくっ付けたものです。。
確かにここに映っているのは『博多どんたく港祭り』という摩訶不思議なパレードですね。
『どんたく』は見せモンヤなかとばい。あたきゃ好かんばい、こげなんと。

Do you recommend this school - NILS I mean. I was looking at their website the other day, and I saw you on the interviewed student list lol. The school looks like the best Ive seen so far, I just need some sort of outside opinion.

Does "Dontaku" sounds like "Don't talk" ?
It's from the Dutch word "Zontag" (Sunday)...

This festival originates from Holland?
I'm from Holland, but I don't have any clue on what kind of holiday they copied this from!? Nevertheless I love your vids!

Ciaela, looks like you're having a great time in Japan. How long have you been here? I'm been here 30 years (came here in 1980), and I still have a buzz.

Some people here have bad breath. Ignore them!

Ciaela   says January 21, 2012 at 11:19 AM

No, I know what a weeaboo is. I'm saying that what he's saying doesn't make sense.
