Konbanwa! Thank you for joining the lesson as always. It was great to see you! In today's lesson, we practiced the affirmative and negative forms of the non‑past tense, as well as the affirmative and negative forms of the past tense.
We checked each word carefully and practiced asking and answering many questions using those words. Please continue getting used to them little by little. You worked very hard today! Let’s keep practicing with verbs and nouns next week as well. Have a great week then. Stay well!
Thank you very much for coming to class today.ありがとうございます。
Today, we reviewed the plain form. I think you understood the plain forms of adjectives and nouns very well.
We also practiced the expression “I think” (～と思います). Using the plain form with と思います, you were able to express your opinions and talk about your thoughts and plans on various topics. You did a good job sharing your ideas clearly and confidently.
（れい）ケンは 学校に いますか。（いいえ） e.g. Is Ken in the school? (No) → いいえ、いないと 思います。 (No, I don’t think he is.)
① 先生は もう 帰りましたか。（はい） Has the teacher gone home yet? (Yes) → はい、もう帰ったと 思います。
② あの コンビニで お酒は 売って いますか。（いいえ） Is there alcohol available at that convenience store? (No) → いいえ、売っていないと 思います。
③ かぎは どこですか。（あの 箱の中） Where is the key? (in that box) → あの箱の中に あると 思います。
④ 明日の 試合は 「巨人」と「阪神」どちらが 勝つと 思いますか。（巨人） Who will win between Kyojin and Hanshin in tomorrow's game? (Kyojin) → 巨人が 勝つと 思います。
Thank you again for your participation today. I’m looking forward to seeing you in the next class!
Thank you very much for coming to class today. I’m sorry that I had to delay the start of the lesson by 30 minutes due to my schedule. I really appreciate your flexibility and understanding. Thank you very much for your help. Please join at the same time for the next class as well.
Today, we practiced using すきですsukidesu (like). You were able to talk about your likes and dislikes, such as:
わたし は アニメ が すき です。 Watashi wa anime ga suki desu. I like anime.
わたし は なっとう が すき じゃ ありません。 Watashi wa nattou ga suki ja arimasen. I don’t like natto.
You also did a good job introducing yourself while including things you like and don’t like. After that, we practiced これkore・それsore・あれare. I think you understood the differences between them very well and used them correctly during the practice. You participated actively throughout the lesson. Great job today. I’m looking forward to our next class!
Konbanwa! Thank you for joining the lesson on Sunday. It was great to see you! In today's lesson, we learned and practicing how to ask questions with i-adjective and how to give positive & negative answers. The negative answer changes the i-adjective to its negative form,"not heavy". In Japanese, i-adjectives form the negative by replacing -i with -ku nai.
The question and answer can be expressed like this: *tamago wa takaidesuka?→ negative answer,iie taka ku nai desu. it's not expensive. And positive answer, yasui desu. it's cheap or affordable. *Slum dunk wa omoshiroidesuka?→negative answer,iie omoshiro ku nai desu, tsumaranai desu.
Your class performance was excellent today. Thank you for asking questions so actively — it really contributed to a great lesson. Please don't hesitate to ask questions at any time. If I am unable to answer them on the spot, I will provide the answer on the message board or in our next lesson. Thank you again. Have a great week then. See you again next time. Stay well!.
