Note: English translations might sound occasionally unnatural as English, as I try to preserve the structure and essence of the original Japanese. I hope it also helps you to capture the pattern of the sentence structure.

「Ittekimasu (I’m off).  」

[00:06]

Hello, everyone. “〜te kimasu” implies “I willl return” after finish doing errand or something.  

[00:14]

For example, “Super market de Shoyu wo katte kimasu” means; I go to a super market, buy a Shoyu, and then, I will come back.

Repeat after me

[00:27]

1.  I’ll check if the plane has already arrived (and come back).  

2.  I’m going to Okinawa for work next week (and return).  

3.  Karaage (deep fried chicken) of that convenience store is delicious.  I’m going to buy it (and return).  

4.  I see there is an area for parking bicycles there. I’m going to park (and come back).

5.  Uh? The train doesn’t start, does it?  I ‘ll go and ask when the departure time is (and come back). 

6.  It’s getting cloudy.  Before it rains, I’ll go for a walk (and return).  

7.  My cat hasn’t return since yesterday. I’ll look for It now  (and come back).  

8.  Let’s take a break.  I’m going to smoke a bit (and return).  

[02:35]

Now make a sentence as follows.

For example,

Convenience store, buy a magazine

I’m going to buy a magazine (and come back).  

Ready?
