Thank you for joining the lesson on Sunday. It was great to see you! Today, we continued practicing using desu and sometimes the masu-form, as well as practicing questions and answers. For example: • Don na ongaku ga suki desu ka? (What kind of music do you like?) → Rock ongaku ga suki desu. • Don na band ga suki desu ka? (What kind of band do you like?) → Linkin Park desu. Linkin Park no uta ga suki desu. • Kono hito wa dare desu ka? (Who is this person?) → Hatsune Miku desu. Bācharu shingā desu.
**• Kono jo no uta o kikimasu ka? (Do you listen to her songs?) → Tokidoki kikimasu.
Let’s review these points again in our next lesson. “What is this?” “Who is this person?” We will practice asking and answering questions using various verbs. You worked very hard today. Have a wonderful week!
Today, we studied verb conjugations, including the past form, negative form, and past negative form. You did a great job using all of these forms correctly, such as tabemasu, tabemashita, tabemasen, and tabemasen deshita.
たべます/tabemasu/eat / will eat たべました/tabemashita/ate たべません/tabemasen/do not eat / will not eat たべませんでした/tabemasen deshita/did not eat
あなたは なにを のみますか。 anata wa nani o nomimasu ka What do you drink? わたしは ジュースを のみます。 watashi wa juusu o nomimasu I drink juice
★vocabulary みず (mizu) / water おちゃ (ocha) / tea こうちゃ (koucha) / black tea コーヒー (koohii) / coffee ジュース (juusu) / juice オレンジジュース (orenji juusu) / orange juice りんごジュース (ringo juusu) / apple juice ぎゅうにゅう (gyuunyuu) / milk コーラ (koora) / cola おさけ (osake) / alcohol / sake ビール (biiru) / beer ワイン (wain) / wine
After that, you practiced making various sentences using verbs. You were able to talk well about your plans for tomorrow and what you did yesterday.
We also studied how to express actions with places using patterns like “I do something at/in a place.” You did a great job explaining where and what you do.
@わたし(watashi)、いざかや(izakaya/Japanese-style bar)、おさけ(osake) わたしは いざかやで おさけを のみます watashi wa izakaya de osake o nomimasu I drink alcohol at an izakaya
Aわたし(watashi)、えいがかん(eigakan/movie theater)、えいが(eiga/movie) 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 a movie theater
Bわたし(watashi)、デパート(depaato/department)、ふく(fuku/clothes) わたしは デパートで ふくを かいます watashi wa depaato de fuku o kaimasu I buy clothes at a department store
It was also very nice that you were able to greet your partner today. I really enjoyed our conversation, and I’m glad I could learn more about you, especially when you told me about sewing and studying.
Keep up the good work, and I look forward to seeing you in the next class!
Thank you for joining the lesson on Friday even though you're busy. It was great to see you! In today's lesson, we continued practicing to create sentences using "te-form", and we have learned so far.
The prases such as: *ウエディングパーティーがありますので、あなたをしょうたいします。( We will be having a wedding party, and it would be my pleasure to invite you.) *ここに、クレジットカードをおいてください。(Please place your credit card here.) *クレジットカードをそうにゅうしてください。(Please insert your credit card into the machine.) *クレジットカードをタッチしてください。(Please tap your card.) *あんしょうばんごうをにゅうりょくしてください(Please enter your PIN number.)
I was happy to hear that you've been friends with the person who invited you to the wedding party since you were four. Thank you for sharing that. Next week, let’s continue practicing te‑form expressions.
おつかれさまでした、Thank you for your hard work! Have a wonderful weekend! またらいしゅう!
