Akiさん You did an excellent job again. As we talked during the lesson, you can expand various expressions in Japanese. Today you made 「きのう わたしは スーパーで アイスクリームを かいました」(I bought icecream at the supermarket yesterday)。It was quite a long sentence! いいですね!
Nycole san Thank you for coming to the lesson today! You did a great job with the numbers. Thank you for working hard to learn and remember the greetings, too. Let's do our best together in the next lesson as well! Noa
ex) Self-introduction 1. Hajime mashite.(How do you do?) 2. Watashi wa Oscar desu.(I'm Oscar.) 3. America jin desu. (I'm American.) 4. Yoroshiku onegai shimasu.(Nice to meet you.)
The next lesson: Let's continue to learn "Noun + desu". September 6th, at 6:30pm, in Zoom91
Let's make your self-introduction have more information next week! See you next week!
Thank you for always joining the lessons. I really appreciate it, and it makes me very happy. Today, we continued practicing how to use “moshikashite” and “sasuga” in conversation.
For example: * moshimashite, ashita gakkou desuka? (Moshikashite, are you going to school tomorrow?) → iie, mada desu.(No, not yet.) And: * anatano eigo wa teineidesu, shoshite kirei desu. (Your English is very polite and beautiful)—sasuga-desu,(That's just like you.) “Sasuga” is a phrase used to compliment someone. Both expressions are used very often.
We also studied how some nouns are made from verb stem + mono. For example, kaimono means “a thing you buy.” So, verb stem + mono = noun.
Kaimono shimasu is a verb, but you cannot say tabemono shimasu to mean “I do food.” Even though tabemono is a noun, it doesn’t work with shimasu in that way.
We practiced the conversation from the textbook today. You did it very well — sasuga-desu! This part is almost finished. Next, we’ll move on to the phrase from Lesson 4: “go to the place in order to do.” You worked hard again today. It was wonderful. I hope you have a great week. See you next week!
