Today, we first reviewed います (imasu) and あります (arimasu). I think you understood the difference very well. You were able to look at the pictures and say where the cat was and where different objects were located. After that, we practiced how to say dates in Japanese. There are many irregular dates, so it's difficult to memorize them all at once. Don't worry—we'll practice them together little by little. It was fun saying the birthdays of different people together. I was also very surprised to learn that Son Goku from Dragon Ball doesn't have an official birthday! I was also surprised that Tony Tony Chopper is only 17 years old.
Thank you for showing me your wonderful Tony Tony Chopper hat. It looked great on you! I was also amazed by your Halloween cosplay photos. The quality of your costumes was incredible. You have such a wonderful hobby!
Today we studied Japanese greetings. You're very good at Japanese, which is probably because you studied it in the past.
You studied numbers today. You learned that the way you read numbers changes depending on whether you're counting up or counting down. You can now tell us your age. You learned that the numbers 1, 8, and 10 are special when it comes to reading age.
You also learned that 20 years old is pronounced "hatachi". That's wonderful.
Hello Garrett san, Thank you for taking a class with me. We learned na-adjective today. Let's learn it more next time. See you next class! Have a wonderful rest of the day! Ayako
Thank you for coming to today's lesson. Following last week's lesson, we continued studying hiragana, the Japanese writing system. We also learned how to use kore, sore, and are by practicing sentences such as "This is a pen," "That is a pen," and "That over there is a pen." Our next lesson will be next week, July 29, at 8:30 p.m. It will start one hour earlier than usual. We will meet in ZM55.
にほんごのべんきょうおつかれさまでした。 Thank you for your hard studying Japanese.
