Thank you for joining the lesson today! I was surprised that you can already read hiragana and katakana, and that you know basic Japanese greetings. Thank you for sharing your experiences in Japan. Let’s keep learning Japanese so you can have conversations with local people on your next trip!
Thank you for coming to the lesson. You talked about your plans for next week. We also discussed Haitian cuisine, which was interesting as it has some similarities to Japanese food. I introduced 10 commonly used onomatopoeic expressions. I also introduced some Super Mario characters that are inspired by onomatopoeia.
Thanks for coming to the lesson during your work break. Prepositions are difficult, but I think you understood them really well! It sounds like it’s really hot where you live, Derian san!
See you next week at the usual day and time. I’ll send the lesson report by email later!
Konbanwa! Thank you for joining the lesson on Thursday night. It was great to see you again! In today’s lesson, we practiced the expression "go to (a place) in order to do, which corresponds to「しにいきます」in Japanese.
Question form: What do you go to (a place) to do? / What did you go to (a place) to do? （そのばしょへ、なにしにいきますか？ / そのばしょへ、なにしにいきましたか？）
Affirmative answer: I go to (a place) to do something.（そのばしょへ、〜しにいきます。） I went to (a place) to do something.（そのばしょへ、〜しにいきました。）
We created sentences such as:
せんしゅうまつ、サンバナーディノへダンスとおんがくをききにいきました. → I went to San Bernardino last weekend to listen to music and watch dancing.
せんしゅうまつ、こうえんへさくらのしゃしんをとりにいきました.→ I went to the park last weekend to take some pictures of the cherry blossoms.
Thank you for sharing so many stories with me. Your class performance is excellent, and I truly appreciate it. Talking more is the quickest way to get used to Japanese. おつかれさまでした。Great work today. See you tomorrow!
Thank you very much for attending today’s lesson. You seemed a bit tired after your math test today. We introduced one additional onomatopoeic expression related to Mario characters, continuing from yesterday. We also reviewed the usage of “agemasu / moraimasu / kuremasu.” Through role-play, you practiced how to use them in real situations.
