Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! After an intense session on the dance floor at a Japanese nightclub, you rejoin your friends at the bar. You ask your Japanese friends how you looked while you were dancing, and they seem to not know what to say.

You’re surprised at the criticism, but that would explain why everyone else exited the dance floor!

In this lesson, you will learn how to talk about animate objects in Japanese using imasu. You’ll also learn how to form tag questions in Japanese.

Do you feel overworked? Think you might be working yourself to death? In Japan, people really do, quite literally, work themselves to death (karōshi). In this lesson, we talk about the contributing factors in Japanese society that cause karōshi. It may seem unimaginable, but it’s a serious reality of the Japanese lifestyle. If you’re studying for JLPT1 or JLPT2, you’ll need to know how to use naninani wo ii koto ni… suru, which is used to describe “taking advantage of a situation by underhanded means.” Also we’ll take a look at words useful for describing statistical relationships. These are must-know phrases if you plan to do business in Japanese (and subsequently work yourself to death, lol).
