Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! Do you feel uncomfortable when there’s nothing to talk about? Imagine the extra discomfort of having nothing to talk about in Japanese. You should follow that long-standing tradition of talking about the weather. You can imagine the situation. You see the weather change as you stand outside in Kyoto, Japan so you turn to your companion and say, in Japanese, “Do you think it’s going to rain?” He responds, “It looks cloudy and gloomy. I think I see rain falling over the mountains, up there.” You comfortably answer in Japanese, “Well, it’s probably coming this way. Where should we go? We don’t want to get soaked. It doesn’t look like a light rain coming.” The weather comes at you quickly in Japan, and in a moment, you and your companion are running for shelter from the downpour. You’re going to get soaked. Well, it doesn’t matter much; at least you learned all the words for rain and weather in your Japanese lessons. Without them, you might have been left standing there in the rain!
