					<description>causewaypondさん

The と here means "when" or "if". So the sentence literally means "If you buy vegetables at this supermarket, it's a bargain."

jack kimさん

The は　here is what's known as a contrastive は. The speaker is saying "I don't buy it at the STORE [emphasis here], (but I buy it elsewhere)".:smile:</description>

					<description>wow..rakuten is one of the ten largest internet shopping sites in the world? It's great reading practice. I should ask my japanese friends about it. I am sure they have shopped there.

and, I like the repition of the conversation at the end of the lesson. it reinforces what i just learned and tests my retention. ^___^ I would love to see that continue.</description>

					<description>I always think of "desu ne" as kind of like "eh". As in, "It's hot today, eh!" rather than "It's hot today, right?"

It doesn't really work in America though because it just makes people think of Canada. It doesn't really work in Canada either, because their "eh" is a bit different, just kind of tacked on the end. It matches the NZ and Australian "eh" quite nicely though, except for level of formality. You wouldn't say "eh" to the queen.</description>

					<description>lol forgot to check back for a couple of days but thanks mikuji and peter for your answers :-) Does anyone else think Oranda is an unusual japanisation of 'Holland' given that a 'd' final sound is usually pronounced 'do' not 'da'. Also why 'o' not 'ho'? 

btw i enjoyed this lesson and I own an electric guitar that cost me AU$1300 a few years back. And for a Fender telecaster, its quite a cheap model:razz:

thanks again, E</description>

					<description>JPod team, 本当に有り難うございます。
Sorry for making a comment so late, but I have some trouble due to the time zone. We've got a 12 hour difference!!

Anyway, I'm amazed. How can you guys get a beginner lesson and turn it so interesting and full of important information... even for intermediate and advanced students, I believe.

I just love the fact you put so much numbers in the lessons. I still have some problems to understand them in the middle of a conversation and you have helped me a lot overcome this.
