So you don't need to add "o" to asa-gohan and ban-gohan because they already contain a "go". :wink: Sara-san

You basically have to memorize one by one.:wink: Sara-san

In the dialogue, you said o-hiru for lunch, but just asa-gohan and ban-gohan without the "o" for breakfast and dinner. Is there a hard and fast rule for this? Or is lunch just the most important meal of the day? Thanks! Hi, I had a question about when to use the honorific “o” for meals.

But, "tabemasen ka?" would sound more polite. :smile: iz-san,

I see that the kanji for 拉麺 is given there in several of the questions, however I don't find the characters in the Kanji Close-Up or the Kanji List. I do notice them in the Lesson Notes, defined as "noodles with soup," or ramen. I am very curious to know how often the Japanese write and use these characters for ramen. Just because someone felt it was important enough to ask test questions on them, I am wondering. In all of my trips to Japan, I have only seen the katakana for ラーメン. Thank you for your attention to this, and for your response. Regards, Tommy I have a question regarding the Vocabulary Expansion test.
