Mina-san, what’s the weather going to be like tomorrow in your town?

Thanks for this great lesson guys. Will test it out by listening to the weather on the radio and then check to see if I was right by looking at the TV.

A long time ago there was a beginner lesson about a guy obsessed about the tenki-oneesan ( sorry about the ugly romaji… No japanese keyboard on this computer…)

I completely agree that we need more lessons about news and newscast vocabulary. Onegai !!!

Isn’t that Sakura in the photo?

I remember that old Beginner’s Lesson about otenki onesan…classic…

Please give me a couple of links to Japan weather on the internet.

仁居流さん、

「ただし」 can be used in conversation as well.　It slightly sounds more strict than using でも.

Kid: 外に遊びに行っていい？(Can I go out play?)
Mother: いいわよ。ただし、お昼ご飯食べてからよ。 (OK. But it’s after lunch. )

Whenever I listen to the Japanese weather forecast I’m always startled by the references to “zenkoku de” which reminds me of the relatively small area of land they are talking about. And I get totally derailed when they refer to the parts of the country. I know Kanto, but I still have to learn the names of the other regions so I won’t get confused.

This has definitely been a helpful lesson.

I get such a kick out of the fun you guys have teasing each other….it makes learning much more natural. Video mo areba iiii neh?
