It had been a little while since our last lesson, so we started by reviewing several things we had studied before. We practiced different verb forms, including the past form, negative form, and past negative form. I think you did very well.
In today’s new lesson, we practiced making sentences. For example:
わたしはひるごはんをたべます。 Watashi wa hirugohan o tabemasu. I eat lunch.
We practiced the basic sentence pattern: Subject は Object を Verb
You were able to make many different sentences using this pattern. You also talked about your plans for tomorrow and things you did yesterday. Very good!
After that, we added a place to make longer sentences, such as:
わたしはえいがかんでえいがをみます。 Watashi wa eigakan de eiga o mimasu. I watch a movie at the movie theater.
You did a great job making longer sentences like this.
I also really enjoyed talking with you today. You told me that you are good at making different kinds of soup, and now I want to try them too! Please tell me more about your cooking again sometime.
Thank you again for coming to class today. See you in our next lesson!またね！
Thank you for joining the lesson today, even though you’re busy. I’m really glad I could see you. Today we practiced using “dictionary form + することです.” For example: * まいしゅう、ともだちとオンラインゲームすることです。 (Every weekend, I play online games with my friends.) * たべることが,すきです。(I like eating) * かくことが, すきじゃありません。(I don’t like writing) * はつねみくのおんがくをきくことが、すきですか？ (Do you like listening to Hatsune Miku’s music?) You were able to answer “もちろん” right away, which was great.
You also shared that you have an inventory check(ざいこかくにん) in November — it’s long, boring, and troublesome.(ながいし、つまらないし、めんどうくさいです。）
Thank you for talking about your daily life. This kind of conversation is excellent practice. You remembered the phrases well, and your effort was wonderful. おつかれさまでした！ See you again tomorrow.
It had been a while since our last class, but you did a great job. Well done! Next time, let's try creating a conversation using the grammar we studied in Lessons 1–7.
