Mina-san,
Today’s location is ブラジリア・Burajiria - hello to all of our listeners in Brazil!
Yoroshiku onegai shimasu!

Michaelさん、
Are they sleeping late, or are you just in an earlier time zone?
As for me, too sleepy here in Japan to listen now. Plus, it would leave a gap in my morning routine to listen now.
See you all on the other side!
Wednesday at 10:15 pm
Thanks for another great lesson. Getting quite easy now!!! *ducks and runs into the corner*
Are you progressing into intermediate level ? Just wanted to ask out of curiousity and to see where I stand level-wise.
Take care Mina-san and have a great day
Wednesday at 10:42 pm
It depends on the lesson.
This lesson I understood, except for a word here or there. Some lessons I’m still working on: The dating game, The two fairy tales. When there is a long monologue I get lost either by being startled that I know a word or startled that I don’t know a word, and then I my mind freezes.
Wednesday at 11:13 pm
Michael-san,
I love the dating-game lesson! But I probably know this by heart by now. I think I´ll go back and do the intermediate again to brush-up!
O-yasuminasai
Off to bed now!

Not that it matters at the end of the day, but sorry you didn’t win that ‘Podcast Award’ thingy. I think it’s irrelevent, as the voting mechanism seems very ‘American Idol’ to me (vote with as many freemail accounts you can muster).
The important thing is that you were nominated, and I do believe this was highly, highly deserved. Congratulations.

Yeah, the winner must have had some really crazy fans. The jpod community is pretty hardcore.
Wednesday at 11:51 pm
Mina-san, we will go for next year!!! We will vote harder???
Michael-san, I was at Europe last night doing Skpye Video. So I slept very little….Zzzzz.
Peter-san, my friend from Korea, Lee-san wanted to say Hi and Thank to you. He got your email. I will help him abit!
Can’t think right now…still Zzzzzz.
Have a great day out there.

Nice ending to the informal lesson … “ばれたか” … indeed you’ve been caught, Chigusa-san! やっぱり!
Thursday at 1:07 am
Huh!? I forgot to comment this lesson. Yabai
. It was quite easy today. I am going to listen to a intermediate lesson today to get more challange
Thursday at 1:28 am
Oh, It hit me that 110 is the emergency number in Japan, right? aah, the Survival Phrases. Keisatsu to yonde kudasai!
Thursday at 1:37 am
Great Lesson.
In the PDF, for the informal section, there is a ください left in by accident.
By the way, What is ばれたか?
ジョン
Thursday at 1:58 am
ばれた is the past form of the verb, ばれる which means “to be found out, exposed”
Thursday at 2:00 am
皆さん,
I just recently discovered JapanesePod101.com and I’m currently catching up and listening to older lessons, and I have to say this is the best podcast I have ever come across. You guys do an absolutely amazing job and I enjoy listening to the podcast every day.
@ジョンさん
I believe ばれたか means something like “We’ve been found out?” or “You discovered our little secret (= that we don’t want to take you along)?”. I think ばれた is the informal past of the verb ばれる, which means “to leak out/expose a secret”.

Dear Jasonさん and Martinさん,

Thursday at 3:57 am
Peter-san,
How many videos do you have so far?
John
Thursday at 5:34 am
Ah poor grandma. Wouldn’t have happened in my family, Gran would have been in the lead
Come on ladies, get your videos in. I thought there was going to be a bare knuckle fight for Yoshi’s attentions
I suspect the scary video mentioned was mine
Thursday at 8:14 am
I thought Liz-san send out her video for Yoshi-san????
Thursday at 9:03 am
Liz-san did indeed send her video in! Thank you Liz-san!
Thursday at 10:08 am
Ha, ha, ha. I can’t be called a “girl”
I just sent a video for the fun of it.
Come on girls, send something in!!
Thursday at 12:31 pm
Haha, grandma got the short end of the stick
Has anyone seen 奈良山伏子? hahaa
Thursday at 1:36 pm
奈良山伏子は映画ですね。みません。面白くて楽しですか。
Thursday at 6:41 pm
John-san, we’re up to about 12!!! And we’re expecting a few more!
Thursday at 7:13 pm
John-san, thanks for your question.
Martin-san and Jason-san, thanks for your answers.
ばれる - bareru (intransitive) to be found out, be discovered, come out, out
ばらす - barasu (transitive) to expose, reveal
浮気がばれた。「uwaki ga bareta.』I was caught cheating.
あなたの浮気相手をばらすよ。『anata no uwaki aite o barasu yo.』I will expose/reveal your lover.

A question several days later:
夏休みの旅行に出発する
Is a literal translation: “departing on summer vacation trip” as oppose to “departing on summer vacation”? or is 夏休みの旅行 idiomatic for summer vacation?
Tuesday at 9:55 pm
Michael -san
I think 夏休みの旅行 means ’summer vacation trip’. 夏休み is for summer vacation (or ’summer holiday’ as we say in the UK).One could possibly spend 夏休み at home and not doing any 旅行.
I’m late with comments too..
Actually, it did happen in the UK a few years ago. A family forgot one of their children at a motorway station as they were going for their holiday.. did not realise it until much later - so fiction is not so far from reality after all!!

夏休みの旅行に出発する前に最後の確認です。よっしゃ。戸締まりはしましたか、オッケイです。お金とパスワートを持ちましたか。オッケイです。子供だち。いるよ。お祖母さん。お祖母さん。ちょっと待ってください。やっばり、私は嫌われ者です。態とでしょう。そんなことないです。行きましょう。
夏休みの旅行に出発する前に最後の確認。よっしゃ、戸締りまはした。オッケイ。お金とパスワートを持った。オッケイ。子供だち、行きたくない。五月蝿い。お婆ちゃん。ちょっと待って。やっばり、私は嫌われ者だ。わざとでしょう。バレだが。行こう。
