Hello Garrett san, Thank you for taking a class with me. We learned how to make negative and past of i-adjectives. Let's practice it more in the next class! See you next week. Have a wonderful rest of the day. Ayako

Roman san! You were able to make a lot of sentences in English today! I really think your English ability has improved a lot recently. See you again in next week’s lesson!
Thank you for attending the lesson today. I was glad to see you! I understand that the computer update delayed you.
Last week we had a big typhoon, and there was also a major earthquake off the coast of the Philippines that caused a tsunami. But since the tsunami didn’t have a large impact, I felt relieved. Thank you for your concern!
Today we practiced the nai‑form (negative casual form). For example, いきます becomes いかない. Change the final vowel from い to a and add ない.
For the past negative form, いかない becomes いかなかった. Remove ない and add なかった.
Your use of the present tense, past tense, te‑form, and adjective negative forms was excellent. Speaking is truly the best way to improve quickly. Have a lovely week. See you next time!
Thank you for joining the lesson. I apologize for the inconvenience caused by my network issues during the lesson. I introduced the real-life inspirations behind Pokémon designs. Since you are learning new vocabulary, let's learn the kanji along with the words as well. This time, we studied the kanji “牙” (fang) and “斧” (axe).
We also practiced hiragana, including voiced sounds (dakuten like がぎぐげこ) and semi-voiced sounds (handakuten like ぱぴぷぺぽ), today. Thank you for asking so many questions during the lesson! It was great talking with you, and I’m looking forward to our next lesson(^o^).
