Learn Japanese With JapanesePod101.com! One of the most common sentences we use talks about being “without.” Here are some examples: “I stayed up all night without going to bed,” and “She said she would marry him without even meeting him in person!” If you want to speak Japanese fluently, you must use sentences that include the word “without.”
