Ever feel like you make progress only to find yourself back where you started? Or worse? Today we’re going to learn how to say that in Japanese! The word is isshin’ittai, but it requires a little more explanation than that. Next we’ll learn icchō ittan, which can be used describe all kinds of products and situations, but you’ll have to listen to find out how!

Whether you’re an advanced Japanese student or want to start learning Japanese, this series is the perfect place to begin learning kanji or refine your use of kanji. Perfect for Japanese learners of all levels!

Learn Japanese Kanji and improve your vocabulary!

Eric-san, ありがとうございます!Yes, these lessons are also really fun to record! The writer, Mayumi Kishimoto, also does a great job preparing the stuff.

I don’t want to build up next week too much, but….the expressions are really good!

Thanks for commenting. :dogeza:

今回の復習ツラクはすごく便利です!ありがとうございます!

紺種末、日本に引っ越した!woooha! JP101おかげで、じゅんびできます!
本当に私の日本はJP101からほとんど全部を教えていました。
そのうち事務賞へ訪ねたい。
今は東京の新宿にいて、明日福島県に引っ越します。
ジェトプログラムのために勤めています。

This weekend some 1000+ foreigners have just moved to Japan to teach Englishfor a year with the JET program. Of the some 50+ people i’ve talked to I havent met one yet who knows about you guys! Of course, I tell them about you, and have even written the site down for 3 people.

As im also part of this group, it is time for me to intensify my Japanese studies. ( I have no choice!)
Ive been with you guys since I started and will to the end!
I hope I can visit some day, I have some interesting ideals I’ve been working on. ( I studied educational/ New media in college.)

Anyway, the utmost appreciation for your help.
I will continue to post in Japanese to demonstrate my progress.
I salute you!
