Learning Real Japanese at JapanesePod101.com! Spring is around the corner and soon the cherry blossoms will be blooming and all of Japan will be covered in hanafubuki (flowers falling like snow). Since enjoying hanami (cherry blossom viewing) is in the hands of mother nature’s schedule, Japanese companies often decide at the last minute when to do a company outting. But getting a good, large space is nearly impossible. In today’s lesson, we’ll look at using de wa nai desu ka and no de wa nai desu ka to make suggestions and mild assertions. There’s a lot going on in this lesson, so after listening, stop by JapanesePod101.com and be sure to leave us a post!
