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.
Premium users can enjoy the Combo Track which combines all 4 dialogs into a single audio file designed to increase your listening comprehension. That’s over 6 minutes of straight JLPT1 Japanese!
If you want to sound articulate, you’ll need the useful Japanese phrases wake ni wa ikanai and ~te kara de wa osoi. These are useful grammatical constructions if you plan to do business in Japan (and subsequently work yourself to death, lol).
