educational rap

AZN terebi is the Asian television network in America. I think it is only on sometimes though and it flips between languages so the odds of catching it during a Japanese program are pretty slim. If you know someone who had DVR it is easier to record the shows and then just watch them later...

I found this website that has a few different songs posted with Japanese lessons in them. They are a little silly and mostly numbers etc vocabulary we already have learned but it's funny to watch.

AZN terebi

Food !

I have been trying to copy the hiragana from the book which is super helpful.
My roommate Liz who is also a waitress at the restaurant Sharaku, downtown, said I should listen to people on tv and in conversation to get the hang of ga and wa as examples because while I am learning vocabulary I feel like I am horrible at forming sentences... so I am scrolling the tv for a Japanese news show that comes on sunday nights...
I miss Japanese food and Sharaku is yasui desu and I am going there on thursday night! I am so happy. Now I love all the food my parents tried to make me eat all my life...

Kyoto

Nihon Chat Club ikimasuka!

Nihon "chat club," ni ikimashita. Genki! (I think this is how you say something is good, because there was a super genki festival when I was in Japan and my roommate said that meant really happy- but she could be wrong). I met onna no hito o ni
(2 women) there studying English, one was Kankoku-jin the other was Nihon-jin. There were many other people and everyone was very friendly. It is a great opportunity to learn quickly because the Nihon speakers were helping me formulate my sentences when I had trouble. I am going to the next one :)

My first attempt at writing in Japanese on this blog

Watashi wa kotoshi Nihon ni ikimashita. Kyoto di ski. Watashi no oishi inigiri & taco yakki tabemashita. Atsui natsu.
