Lesson Transcript
| Hi, everyone. |
| In this lesson, you'll practice giving your age. |
| You'll be challenged to ask and answer questions about age. |
| First, let's look at some examples. |
| To ask someone's age, say なんさいですか。 (Nan-sai desu ka.) |
| To answer, say the number followed by さい (sai). |
| Note that 20 years old is はたち (hatachi). |
| Not にじゅうさい (ni-jū sai). |
| Listen to a few more examples. |
| 凛さん、なんさいですか。 (Rin-san, nan-sai desu ka.) はたちです。 (Hatachi desu.) |
| You are talking to Rin. |
| Ask her, "How old are you?" |
| Now ask Hitoshi, "How old are you?" |
| How did you do? |
| You can consider this practice exercise successful if you were able to answer in the given time and use the sentence pattern featured in the examples. |
| Try this practice exercise again if you want to improve your fluency. |
