LESSON 1-2

LANGUAGE USE INSIDE THE CLASSROOM (教室内での言語使用)

You will notice that in the classroom teachers like to use certain specific phrases
more often, like 覚えてください (oboete kudasai - Please remember), もう一度
言ってください (mouichido itte kudasai - Please say it again), etc.

If you are taking some Japanese courses or if you are planning to study in Japan,
you will find the following list very useful.

Take a look and see how many of the phrases do you recognize. Take some
effort to remember them and I am sure you will find them useful.

You don't have to know these common Japanese phrases all at once. Just come
back to this page regularly to refresh your memory.

OK, let's explore the list.
