Thank you for coming to class today! ありがとうございました。 You told me that your daughter and son started school this Monday, so things have been busy for your family this week. I was sorry to hear that your son had a stomachache. I wonder if he might have been a little nervous because it was the first day of school. I hope he is feeling better now!
Thank you also for answering my questions about self-driving cars. I recently saw some news about self-driving cars, so I was curious about the situation in New York. I was surprised to hear from you that there have been many accidents involving self-driving cars and that they are not allowed there. I don’t really like driving, so I hope self-driving cars will become more widely available in Japan in the future!
Today, we also played a little “What is it?” guessing game using the potential form. We asked questions to guess the mystery place, such as:
そこで食べられますか。 Can you eat there?
そこで飲めますか。 Can you drink there?
My mystery place was a movie theater, and you guessed it correctly! Your mystery place was a bookstore, but I guessed “library,” so I got it wrong. You won! 😄
It was a fun way to practice using the potential form to ask questions and communicate in Japanese.
Thank you again for coming to class today. See you in our next lesson! またね！
