Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! You hear an insane amount of noise outside the bedroom of your Japanese apartment, and you bury your head further in your pillow. However, the noise doesn’t subside. Instead, it seems to grow stronger! You hear voices speaking Japanese and then what sounds like a crash. You decide you can’t stay in bed any longer: you have to investigate. It turns out that your roommates, who are incapable of cooking, were deliberately trying to wake you up so you would make breakfast. How considerate! In this lesson, you will learn about the usage of the Japanese words koso and -ba koso. Our Japanese conversation takes place at home between a father, mother, and their daughter. Since the speakers are family members, they will be speaking informal Japanese. Visit us at JapanesePod101.com where you will find many more fantastic Japanese lessons and learning resources!

Learn Japanese with JapanesePod101.com! It’s only been a week since you left your home in Japan for a business trip, but you’ve been missing your family ever since. In the airport, you decide to buy some souvenirs for your family members to show them that you’ve been thinking about them. After looking in several shops, however, you’ve only been able to find some tacky t-shirts. You can’t bring yourself to buy them. Maybe you’ll have better luck if you bring dinner home with you after you land in Japan. In this lesson, you will learn about the usage of dake, nomi, and kiri. Our Japanese conversation takes place at home between a father, mother, and their daughter. Since the speakers are family members, they will be speaking informal Japanese.
