Learn Japanese at JapanesePod101.com! In today’s lesson, a young couple is planning a trip to the beach. But the girlfriend needs to buy a new swimsuit so they rush to the department store to find something good. Our grammar point is ~ no hō ga, which, in this case, is used to distinguish a preference.

Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! Today’s lesson takes place in a yūbinkyoku, post office and Masanori is deciding whether he will use Airmail or Surface mail.  Our grammar point is yō ni, which is used to express the purpose for which you’re going to do (or not do) something.  It’s a very useful bit of Japanese!  After listening, stop by JapanesePod101.com to leave us a post!

Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! Today’s lesson takes place in a yūbinkyoku, post office, but it could take place anywhere. Today’s grammar is priceless in that you can use it in so many situations. We’ll be reviewing -tai n desu ga, which is the indirect way to say you want to do something and get someone to help you. We’ll also look at ni nasaru which is the polite way to say ni suru (to choose something). After listening, stop by JapanesePod101.com to leave us a post!
