Learning Japanese better

Learn Japanese with Manga Volume Two: A Self-Study Language Guide

This is my second year learnign Japanese weekly. We have mostly learned what phrases we would need to use while renting a car, ordering at a restuarant and so on. I had joked in a class that we are now certified to become flight attnedants in a Japanese airline. I recalled learning kashikomarimashita (かしこまりました - I got it) in a restaurant scene in Netflix tarareba girls.

Then I thought why not watch videos of those scenes. I see great value in hearing the words and seeing the context.

Usually I dont have many questions in the class, but we are learning about nakucha. I am also reviewing lessons from last year to build the base. I saw beki with both meaning must and how are they different. By the way I didnt attend that first class so I had to self study. 

 I am using the learnw ith Manga book and going back to volume I as it brings references back to it. Through all this review, I find some of th things I learn in the class, for example の (of) used at the end of the sentence. Finally came to a page where all the manga is in Japanese.

I amw atching Memoirs of Geisha with Japanese subtitles on. I also introduced myself in Japanese. Celebrating all the milestones.

In tadoku reading club, learned about koibito, red theread tied to pinky fingers of a couple.
