Mina-san, what’s the smallest place you’ve lived in?
Saturday at 10:01 pm
In Australia “Toilet” means the room as well and the toilet and bathroom are two separate rooms. So, in English “toilet” can also mean the room.

the link to the video vocab doesn’t appear to be working.:???:

カレッジのアパート. とてもちいさい. I could see in every room from the couch. でも、とてもべんりですよ。

So do Japanese use まる like we use “O” for things like course numbers? Thinking about the introduction to the show - いちまるいち (one - o- one). ぜろ or れい isn’t used. Or was the one-o-one Englitized for the show intro?

I really enjoy this Japanese lesson. Please write me a e-mail. I want to make a friend.

A friend of mine used to leave in a 7,5 square meter apartment on the 8th (and last) floor of a 19th century building in a very nice neighbourhood of Paris. トイレ, as it was, was not in the apartment, but at the end of the 8th floor corridor (however, she was the only one living there).
The apartment was right under the roof, and so had a slanted ceiling…. in her “bedroom”, at the highest point, the ceiling was 1,20 m above the floor… which means she couldn’t stand up in her own room !
There are a lot of rooms like that in old buildings, and it’s quite common for students to get a first apartment just like the one this friend used to live in…

Hi!!
It seems the PDF for Kanji is not available both in the site and the iTunes.
Has anyone got it?
Sunday at 10:26 am
Minna-san!
I am also experiencing problems with the Kanji close-up and the Video vocab. Hopefully, (as always! I have blind faith in the staff at Japanesepod101), it will be solved soon!
Arigatou gozaimasu!

Arigatou gozaimasu… the problem was fixed!
Thank you JPOD crew!!!

The URL to the video vocab file in the premium feed still has problems.
Tuesday at 10:59 am
Mina-sama,
The Kanji PDF has been fixed. But, please wait for a moment until the video vocab is ready. Thank you for your patience.
Sunday at 10:28 am
The URL to the video vocab file in the premium feed still has problems (German iTunes 7.6)

Thanks for letting us know. I sure someone on the tech team will see your comment shortly.

You guys have ‘grammar’ spelled wrong as ‘grammer’ again on this and some other lessons.

You need to correct tanoshii= peasant!
What was meant by the two versions of shoppai?
Thursday at 10:29 am
peterm-san,
I fixed it.
Thank you for pointing it out!
“Shiokarai “and “Shoppai” has the same meaning, but shoppai sounds casual.
Wednesday at 8:32 pm
The Cultural Insight page didn’t work for me…. Could you post a corrected version please?
Thursday at 4:35 pm
Kaxx-san,
Sorry that the cultural insight should have been in blank. I’ll fix it as soon as possible. Sorry for inconvenience caused by this.

We apologize for the trouble and inconvenience.
We fixed it.

Hello there,
I would like to suggest that the list of adjectives on the pdf for newbie lesson 7 series 4 be arranged in opposite pairs (where possible) rather than alphabetical order as they are easier to learn when they are paired.
