Thank you very much for joining the lesson. Today, we studied the expression “~ ga suki desu” (I like ~). From now on, please try introducing the things you like in Japanese. I was surprised to hear that you like the shamisen. It has a very beautiful sound. I also looked up the flute-like instrument you mentioned online. Is it called a “yokobue”? It seems there are many different types of yokobue.
I’m looking forward to our lesson again next week.

Thank you for coming to the lesson. We learned how to introduce ourselves in Japanese. Please understand that Japanese and English have different grammar structures, so a perfectly matching translation can be difficult. If you have any questions or requests, please feel free to let me know.
