Upgrade to notes on your ipod. For the past three lessons, key vocab is included in the lesson description section of your ipod. To access this feature - once the podcast has started click the center, white button twice.
! The word in all three forms and the meaning! Example below:
Today we introduced a new format. The number of the vocab, time in the lesson that it can be found!
1. (1:07) Kakkou ii・かっこういい・格好いい - Literally translated – nice appearance. Meaning – cool (used for clothes, cars, motor cycles, etc.) good-looking, (You’ll hear a chorus of them when Brad Pitt comes to town.)
Should be interpreted as follows: first key vocab, said at 1:07 of the podcast, all three forms and the meaning! Enjoy.
To access this feature - once the podcast has started click the center, white button twice.
Thank you again Alex!

I found this podcast by browsing the top 100 podcasts on iTunes. I subscribed to it, not expecting very much from it, but boy, was i wrong. I think this is the best find i have ever found on the NET.
I have been trying to learn Japanese as my 3rd language, and this is just what i needed. Thanks a lot for doing this guys.

This is very neat now!
I liked a lot this new visual and it’s much more easier to find the classes now. And thank you for the PDFs! Before you did it I was copying the text and transforming them in PDF and now I don’t need to do that anymore! Thank you.
Hey, how about a class about candies? The only candy name that I know in Japanese is chocolate.
And please keep the wonderful work that you are doing!

Peter-san,
Thanx so much for mentioning my email in your show, although my name is actually pronounced like “Shannon” with a ‘ch’ sound
Also, to people out there who are trying to learn Japanese, please please don’t think it’s a devil tongue or it’s the hardest language because that’s only going to be a big mental block. Learning any languages takes time and if you want to learn Japanese, here is the best place to start!
Anyway, have a nice day minasan

Thank you very much for your time to teach me Japanese. This would be my third language
. I need to learn it because I am studying English interpretation and my mother tongue is Spanish (I´m from Buenos Aires). This, for sure, will help me strengthen my knowledge. Thank you again. I met you by chance on the newspapers and have just joined you. Good luck!
