Apologies for the last QA Sessions / Part2-5 Now Available

Updated: Jul 28, 2023

みなさん、こんにちは。


First of all, I apologize for the last Q&A session. The link I provided was wrong. It was for the next Q&A session. I sincerely apologize, especially to the members who waited for the live stream to begin. I'll be more careful next time.


I uploaded the 3rd and 4th Q&A session videos. I'm sorry that the 3rd one was not on the page. Now you can see both on the Q&A page.



I also have uploaded 'Part 2-5 The Rhythm of Long Vowels' as well for the subscription members.


In the video, you'll learn about not only the rhythm but also how long vowels look both in katakana and hiragana.

Long vowels are one of the features that English speakers tend to have difficulty with.

I suggest that you elongate long vowels longer than you might think is necessary.


You'll practice the rhythm with these pairs.

ここ (Here)

こうこう  (High school)

きて  (Te form: to come)

きいて  (Te form: to listen)


かれ   (He)

カレイ  (Flatfish)


ビル (Building, Bill)

ビール (Beer)


とって (Te form: to take)

とおって (Te form: to go through)


にゅうよく (taking a bath)

ニューヨーク (New York)


りょうこ (Ryouko, a girl's name)

りょこう (trip, travel)


しょうちゅう (shochu, Japanese liquor)

しょっちゅう (often, spoken language)



And 'Part 3-0, Introduction of Pitch Accent' will be uploaded next week!

(So this month, you'll have three new episodes!)


Questions are always welcome!😁


がんばりましょう!✨(Let's do our best!)
