We could be at a party and it says Japanese English exchange and I'll say that phrase. and without fail they always replay I'm Japanese! I get the same response from どこの出身ですか？ 日本のどちらの方ですか？ Might work better??? Peter mentioned in this lesson that when he asks where some one is from どちらの方ですか？

In the first meaning, it is read as じゅっぷん but in the second, it's read as じゅぶん. But maybe one of our helpful teachers will correct me... :mrgreen::mrgreen: Nice catch Michael!

This was a great lesson! I hope this series continues for a while... I've been studying this dialogue and I'm confused with the very end: in the pdf Junko seems to be saying something about 10 minutes (You've been speaking Japanese very well for 10 minutes?), it's in the audio and kanji and kana versions, but not in the romaji or english. Is there some reason for this that I don't know? どうもありがとう！ Hi!

I'm hanging out for Japanese Culture - IbaragiBen. Until then I'm doing my best to develop an Ibaragi accent. :mrgreen: Also, this seems like a very practical lesson for Japanese learners. (seriously!) I'm sure most of us have already tried a conversation like this and mucked it up. Hopefully we can do a better job from now on. Keep it up! That accent was awesome.
