Since they spoke in Japanese, you answer in the same, “Why, what’s so important to watch?” “The launch,” they reply in Japanese. “Don’t you know about the launch?” “What launch? Is it a boat? A ship? A new vacation cruise ship?” They all look at you as if you were a little off. Of course, your friends are all very savvy in technology, but you’re not, so you get those kinds of looks often. “The rocket launch,” they say, “Don’t you know the Japanese Space Agency is launching a rocket today?” You didn’t even know Japan had a space agency. “They’re televising the launch, and we all want to watch it. Come with us. It’ll be great.” Well, they are your friends, so you decide to go along. At least the picture on the television is a really good one.

Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! Your friends say they are going to introduce you to one of the great Japanese cultural events. But they won’t tell you where you’re going until you get there. You trust your Japanese friends, so you know it won’t be awful. But still, you’re getting a little nervous. What if they’ve arranged for a trip to a traditional Japanese bathhouse. You don’t think you could do that. However, as you get off the train, you see lots of people streaming into a building, so it looks to be okay. There couldn’t be that many people taking a bath all at once. Your friends hand you a ticket and announce you’re going to see a Japanese sumo wrestling match. “No way,” you exclaim in Japanese. At least you had the presence to say it in Japanese. “Yes,” they tell you in Japanese, “You’ll love it.” After you get to your seat, you see two enormous Japanese men staring at one another and you notice a small ring between them. You think the ring can’t be big enough to hold the two of them at once, much less allow them to wrestle. The gigantic Japanese men stretch and limber up. They each toss something—you know not what—over a shoulder and start to place themselves in the ring. The official checks each man. The two fighters tense and grimace. The official suddenly signals the start of the match. The giants catapult themselves at each other on thighs thicker than telephone poles. And it’s over in less than three seconds. “Wow, amazing!” you say in Japanese! But your friends stare in amazement at you because you have gotten the Japanese phrases correct all night!
