Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! It’s sokkā taimu (soccer time) and an argument breaks about game strategy. Will the coach step in to smooth things out or will the players start brawling? We’ll also make complex sentences using the connective te form, a natural way to free yourself from the simple sentence syndrome. After listening, be sure to stop by JapanesePod101.com and leave us a post!

Really challenging lesson indeed!!!

I’ll really hafta go thru the dialogue again ‘n’ again ‘n’ again.

I love the way Natsuko-san and Sachiko-san help us with the conversations. Great team!!!

It’s just a pity Peter-san wasn’t around. Is he still with the girl from yesterday’s lesson??? What happened to them???

審判 しんぱん shinpan
refree

補欠 ほけつ hoketsu
Substitute

あわてる awateru (⇔落ち着く)
Panick, be confused

みなさんはサッカーをしますか?
では・・・have a good night!

丸出忍者 says:

it’s a beginner’s lesson #163! :shock:

miho先生、「あわてる」is interesting, can you give us an example?
can we only use this for sports?

JockZon (JZ) says:

This lesson was amazing as usual but… It’s almost that I will stop listening to this if Peter isn’t with us. Furthermore I wonder why you stopped with “Ohayou [location]”… Is that so much to ask :wink:

Anyway, great lesson.

>丸出忍者さん

Good question! あわてるis not only for sports :eek:
It is actually common words for our daliy situation.

たとえば・・・(for example…)

1. サッカーの試合(しあい)で(In the soccor game…)

あわててボールをけると、ミスをします。
If you kick the ball in panick (without thinking much), you will make a mistake.

2. 生活(せいかつ)の中(なか)で…(In the daily life…)

In the morning…

みほ:あ~電車に遅れる~~!!!
おかあさん: あわてないで!気をつけて行(い)きなさい。

電車 でんしゃ densha : train
遅れる おくれる okureru : be late
気をつける kiwotsukeru : be careful

Miho: Oh no… Im gonna miss the bus!!!
Mum: Don’t be panick!(Don’t rush!). Be careful!

I hope this helps!
Have a nice day :smile:

Sorry… In the translation of the Miho’s line, I meant “train”… :p

I was just wondering whether JP101 does answer their e-mail. I have sent some emails there in the past few weeks. No answers yet! :neutral:

JZ, be patient! like all of us, sometimes peter needs a break too sometimes. but he’ll be back, don’t worry! :wink:

robert, hang in there! this time was a challenge! it’s good practice to listen to all levels of Japanese to become 上手!

Frank says:

I too found this extremely challenging … particularly the listening. Otherwise, I do enjoy your podcasts. Thanks

I’ve never heard of a soccer pitch either. Here in Australia we call it a soccer field.

Mayumi says:

Sorry to get you surprised! :mrgreen:
I think this lesson is just one of hardest lessons. :hachimaki:
So, please don’t get disappointed! :dogeza:

da5id says:

this is far harder than any of the previous lessons. by far it’s the hardest lesson yet. there are at least a dozen new words not included in the vocab list, and at least a few of those words require you to learn grammar points that show you how to employ them. :shock:
