That song is 紙飛行機 by井上揚水. The words are not too difficult and may be a little stretch for a beginner. Some of the sentimental feelings expressed by the actors are also expressed in the song.... Makes the learning of Japanese all the more fun!! Here is a link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9mCWJIS0CMA By the way, there is one Japanese song that I believe fits this lesson very, very well.

I didn't expect there to be anything here, but there was. I am glad that I got it mostly right. I am having a hard time with a few things. 1) How is this prounounced? 酔っ払っ (ていました) Without the PDF, I would never have gotten these characters from the pronunciation. 2) Is this really "spirits"? その後さらに焼酎を二本飲んで My 日本語・英語dictionary says that 焼酎 is a clear liquor distilled from sweet potatoes, rice or buckwheat. My 日本語辞書 seems to indicate that it basically means "alcohol". Is this a generic term for all types of alcohol or a specific type? 3) 会計後始末, すべて大変でした == Settling the bill was totally awful. 4) I also had much difficulty with the beginning of this sentence: ああ、早く帰てよかった。 It sounds like はやえけ。 My translation for this is: It was good I left (went home) early. The 漢字 in the PDF has "early" and "return" in it but the pronunciation is all mashed together and 難しい。 宜しくお願いします。 Mikujiさんとkawasakiさん、

有難う御座います for the help with the informal track.
難しいですよ！

My experience with this track is that informal tracks like these are particularly difficult to use for self study because most times the topical expressions are not available on books or dictionary. I don't have Japanese friends to ask question on everyday speaking. I am still in to mind whether I benefit from tracks like these - I love the challenge to solve the puzzle - I hate not being able to compare what I deduce with a solution and thus learn from my mistakes- but then perhaps this is what this forum is for. I am also contrained by lack of time to study which is why I do not have the time to make my own material from news items, and the other plentiful stuff on the net. This is why I often sound frustrated. Sumimasen! mikuji kawasaki-san
