This week’s lesson covered the various uses of the word 気 "KI".
For example:

気にしないで/ki ni shinai de / don’t worry

気に入った/ki ni itta / I like it.

気をつけてね/ ki wo tsukete ne / take care

We covered five examples in the podcast although there are many more uses that you can find here. The podcast was recorded outside by the river. Waka sensei and I thought we would escape the confines of the studio ( the kitchen ) to the wilderness of Chiba ( the park ). It was wonderful to sit outside and hear the beautiful bird song. 本当に気に入った/I really liked it.

Enjoy.
