「 Let’s talk with me! 」
[00:06]
Everyone, good morning, good day(hello), good evening!
[00:11]
It’s a bit different today. Now answer as follows.
[00:18]
How do you do. I’m Yoko.
→ How do you do. I’m (your name).
[00:25]
1. How do you do. I’m Yoko.
→ How do you do. I’m (your name).
2. Where are you from?
→ I’m from (your country or city).
3. Nice to meet you.
→ Nice to meet you.
[00:50]
Actually “yoroshiku“ is a very convenient phrase and you might hear a lot in different situations. It could mean; “Nice to meet you.”,”I’m looking forward to working with you.”, “Thank you in advance.”, “Please take care of this/someone.”, ”I’m counting on you.”
Meanwhile, “douzo” means “Please.”, “Here you are.” or “Go ahead.” You might hear it a lot, too.
[01:23]
We continue practicing.
Repeat after me
[01:28]
1. I understand a little Japanese.
2. I am studying Japanese.
3. I have studied Japanese.

[02:13]
1. I studied Japanese for 3 months.
2. I have been studying a year or so.
3. (only just) since yesterday. (kidding!)
[02:43]
Your answer please.

(example: It's been about 6 months.)
