					<description>:mrgreen:glad I'm not alone.. that's why I find the premium content so useful as can read and listen...except for the intro stuff. 

Do I get a commission for plugging Premium content?:cool:

As I've mentioned before; beginner level here is like Intermediate at Japan Society... still it's all fun. I get to use one or two words at my local NYC Izakaya so I sound clever... or when I mangle my ke/ka's or such I sound utterly 馬鹿。:roll: 私は日本語で何時も呆けている。</description>

					<description>There's a lot of guesswork in this, but here is my transcript of the intro:

ね、ね、ね、聞いて聞いて、マーキがDJを勤めるエベント
八月十日、金曜日の十時から。シブヤやるの知ってる(知ってない- maxiewawa)
絶対楽しめるエベントだから、みんあ来てるね　え　え　え　え

I know there are some mistakes, but the important stuff is that there is a DJ event run by DJ marky星. It's on Friday the tenth of August, in Shibuya Yaru (?) in Tokyo.</description>

					<description>私はこのレッソンがちょうどいいと思います。
一回聞くと全部分からないのに、二三回後分かるぐらい。

このレベルは学生たちが全部分からないはず!
I think that at this level, students shouldn't be able to understand the whole thing. (At least the first time you hear it anyway.)

I liked the intro too. Always like them! It seemed like a promo for an event. I have a suggestion though: although this is a japanese language site, if you really want people to know about the event, I think you should somehow put it in English.  That would of course make it kinda boring though...　Maybe we should get transcripts/lessons based on the intros. Especially in the event of an event like this. (In the event of an event?)

Introはいつも頑張ってください!
I actually started a thread on this:
http://www.japanesepod101.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=1872&#38;highlight=intro
返事がないけど。:cry:</description>

					<description>Marky-san,
Thanks for your amazing intros!  They are so much fun!:mrgreen:  I can't understand them all the time, but I always enjoy them!  Keep it up!! What will be next???

sindy-san,
I feel your pain.:wink:  As for myself, I think I am still a Beginner.  But, when I listen to Intermediate lessons, I always pick up some little thing, such a a new vocabulary word, for example.  Learning a language seems to be a gradual process -- you just keep picking up one thing after another.  Think about how a child learns his or her native language.  

Many people have decided to go back to some Beginner Lessons in order to recoup missing bits!  So, don't feel bad!:wink:

JPOD Team:  As for this lesson, I loved it.  I was even able to understand a lot of what Natsuko-san said when she spoke Japanese!  Nice job, Natsuko-san!  And the explanations of vocabulary were all clear and to-the point.  Naomi-sensei, thank you so much for your clear explanations, too. Of course,iIt doesn't hurt that I am a huge baseball fan.  Peter-san, I will cheer Chiba Lotte with you (tobemasu?).  Too bad they slipped to third place.  Do you think they can come back?  They were leading the Pacific League for a long time.:grin:</description>

					<description>&lt;p&gt;No interest in baseball either here but nice to have Sensei joining in. Wish the grammar was not treated so superficially, though.   I definitely need to supplement with a ton of other stuff. Anyone else feel the same way?  Gambatte! :smile:&lt;/p&gt;</description>
