Lesson focus

Jessi: In this lesson, we're going to learn another type of noun modification, which corresponds to "(the fact) that~."
Please note that modifying clauses always come before the noun, which is different from English.

Jessi: So ใจใ„ใ† after modifying clauses is basically optional, but in some cases it is obligatory or not allowed. When the nouns are related to thoughts or things people say, you need to put ใจใ„ใ† before the noun. On the other hand, nouns that are related to sensation or perception cannot have ใจใ„ใ† before them. So please take note of that.
OK. So now, let's recap this lesson with a quiz. How do you say "I heard the rumor that Naomi-sensei is going to Hawaii."
