Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! “Look, it’s over there. No wait, I see it over here. Oh my goodness, they’re EVERYWHERE!” Do you have this conversation with people whenever you see some creepy, crawly insects in the house? You can sure lose your appetite in a hurry when you see bugs and such scurrying about. They’re fast, too, and they can hide in the most remarkably small places. Well, you can’t escape the bugs by going to Japan. And if you want help wrangling that critter into a corner, or better – out the door – you had better know how to tell someone ELSE where that nasty little thing is in Japanese! Because standing there with your mouth open screaming and pointing frantically all over the room isn’t getting you anywhere!
Learning Japanese with JapanesePod101.com is the most fun and effective way to learn Japanese! This Japanese Newbie lesson is about this and that. Really, it’s about the words “this” and “that,” which in Japanese identify the location of an object relative to the speaker. Much as we say, “this here” and “that there.” Visit us at JapanesePod101.com where you will find many more fantastic Japanese lessons and learning resources! Leave us a message while you are there!
