Practice useful Japanese phrases for visiting a full-service gas station in Japan!

In Episode 101, we learned practical Japanese for ordering gas, choosing how much you want, paying, and answering questions about point cards.

This is the practice episode for Episode 101!

In Round 1, repeat the phrases after me and practice them several times.

In Round 2, you’ll practice using the phrases in different situations.

Try to imagine that you’re actually sitting in your car at a gas station in Japan. 🚗⛽

Regular, full tank, please.
Regular, mantan de onegaishimasu.

Regular, 5,000 yen worth, please.
Regular, gosen en bun onegaishimasu.

By card.
Kaado de.

By cash.
Genkin de.

Do you have a point card?
Pointo kaado wa omochi desu ka?

I don’t have one.
Motte nai desu.

🎧 Episode 101 explains these phrases and the difference between full-service and self-service gas stations, so I recommend listening to that episode first!

Episode 100! 🎉

Thank you so much for listening!

Today, I’m talking about language learning and why I believe there is no single perfect way to learn a language.

I’m also sharing a new language-learning challenge that I’m starting myself… 👀🇪🇸

Let’s find what works for us and enjoy the journey together!

じゃあね！

Practice talking about the future in Japanese! 🇯🇵

In this practice episode, we’ll review three common ways to talk about future plans:

～ます～つもりです～よていです

For example:

Raishuu, Kyouto ni ikimasu.
I’m going to Kyoto next week.

Ashita, hatarakimasu.
I’m working tomorrow.

Raigetsu, Toukyou ni iku tsumori desu.
I’m planning to go to Tokyo next month.

Ashita wa, haisha ni iku yotei desu.
I have a dentist appointment tomorrow.

We’ll practice natural Japanese sentences and think about which expression sounds most natural for each situation.

This is a practice episode based on EP98, so if you haven’t listened to that episode yet, I recommend listening to it first!

Let’s practice together! 🎧🇯🇵

Practice the nai form in natural, everyday Japanese!

In this episode, we first practice basic verb pairs:

taberu → tabenaiiku → ikanainomu → nomanaikau → kawanaimiru → minai

Then, we use the nai form in different situations and practice expressions like:

kyou wa dekakenai yokyou wa osake o nomanai tsumori desukyou wa nanimo kawanai tsumori desukyowai eiga wa minai yo

You’ll also hear different ways to make the nai form sound natural in conversation, such as yo, desu, tsumori, and more casual patterns.

If you haven’t listened to EP96, I recommend listening to that episode first!

Learn the Japanese nai form, one of the most useful ways to make verbs negative.

In this episode, we practice useful everyday verbs like:

taberu → tabenaiiku → ikanainomu → nomanaimiru → minai

You’ll also learn how the nai form is used in casual conversation, with yo, desu, and future expressions like 〜tsumori desu and 〜yotei desu.

The goal is not to memorize complicated grammar rules. Instead, get familiar with useful verb pairs and start using them naturally.

Yahho, Kimi desu! 👋

This is the practice episode for EP94, where we learned how to use node to give a reason.

If you haven’t listened to EP94 yet, I recommend listening to that episode first and then coming back to this practice episode.

In this episode, we’ll practice 10 natural everyday sentences using node.

Round 1: Repeat after me.
Round 2: I’ll give you the English sentence first. Try to say it in Japanese, then check your answer.

The sentences get a little longer, so take your time and keep practicing! 💪🇯🇵
