					<description>Sylvie-san,
The pronunciation is a bit different.:wink:  "Free time" is "jiyuujikan" and "for 10 hours" is "juu-jikan."  Of course, the kanji is different.  自由時間（free time）, 十時間(10 hours)</description>

					<description>Hi, 

Does jiuujikan mean both "free time" and "for 10 hours" or did I miss the difference somewhere (except of course that the kanjis are different)? 
Thanks!

					<description>Hi Peter,

In answer to your question, I study both ways. I sometimes listen to the audio lesson first, and then study the lesson notes. However, other times I study the lesson notes completely (learn the grammar and vocabulary, etc.) and then listen to the audio.

Both work, but I'm coming to believe that studying the lesson notes first is the most effective for me.

Thanks for the great lessons!</description>

					<description>Hello! I'm practicing writing the kanji for this lesson with the Kanji Close-Up pdf. However, I don't feel like I'm doing the stroke order for 歩 correctly. Can you direct me to resource that will show me the correct stroke order? Thanx! :smile:

The lessons are fantastic!</description>

					<description>Ohayougozaimasu mina-san
akemashiteomedetougozaimasu:grin:
Yes, I read the lesson notes while I listen to the podcasts.  I remember more when I do that.  However, sometimes the notes don't download into iTunes. Sometimes I just get an explanation of what the lesson will be about without the notes:cry:
Any particular reason why that's the case?  So far none of the lesson notes for 2009 have downloaded for me:cry:
And thank goodness I haven't had to deal with this kind of annoying person so far, knock on wood :wink:</description>

					<description>Mina -san konnichiwa.

Fisrt of all, I would like to say that this is a wonderful site to learn japanese language for me. I have been learning many words and sentences in here. Even thought, I could not write it down but I still remember the way of pronoun that words to speak in the daily life and sometime it is very funny. ;D

I have a question that someone here might help me. I am wondering that where I can buy the whole CDs of Japanesepod101 lessons including the texts, audios, kanji-text and etc... from beginner to higher levels. And how much it cost?

I do appreciate your response and helps.
Thank you very much
Cheers,</description>
