Hello, everyone. How are you doing? Today’s topic is “yasumi”.
Note: It can be time off (day off), a break, a holiday/vacation, depending on the context.
Repeat after me
[00:15]
1. I will be off tomorrow.
2. I will take a day off from work tomorrow.
3. I won’t come to the Japanese class next week.
4. I’m on vacation from tomorrow.
5. I’ll sit on a bench and rest.
6. I will go back to my room and rest (go to bed).
7. Let’s take a rest.
8. Let’s rest for about 15 minutes.
9. The break is 20 minutes.
10. Why don’t we have a break while drinking coffee?
[02:04]
Shall we rest for a while?
Well, let’s continue.
[02:14]
11. I had been off for a while.
12. The lunch break is one hour.
13. I don’t work on weekend.
14. I don’t work / we are closed every Tuesday.
15. I had no work last week.
16. I was absent from class yesterday.
17. I took a break from my part-time job for half a year.
18. During Corona, I took a break from Judo.
19. After resting for a night, I felt better.
