yeah. I honestly have no idea what that guy is talking about lol.
I listen to a lot of Japanese podcasts and stuff. And all the K's sound like K's to me.... you sure he didn't mean r's or something? cause R sounds are kinda a mix between R's and L's as you probably know. |

That's the same thing I said to her! I said are you sure he wasn't talking about r's because I know r's kind of are between an r sound and an l.
She said no. The example was Konnichiwa. Now! the only thing I can think of is where the "kon" part of the sentence originates in the mouth, which is kind of in the back of throat the same where a g would if you were to say gonnichiwa. |

I think that is spoken in Tohoku area.
But "Gonnichiwa" is not used even in Tohoku because this dialect is used when it is not initial letter. Also sometime たちつてと (ta-chi-tsu-te-to) change to だぢづでど(da-ji-dzu-de-do). 行く(iku) → 行ぐ(igu) 書く(kaku) → 書ぐ(kagu) おとこ(otoko) → おどご(odogo) note; Generally these usages are not used in writing. FYI;Life in the village of Inakadate |
