A huge thank you to all of you who came out last Sunday to Yoyogi park and helped to record lesson #74. This wasn’t our first outdoor recording but it did have the most people ever, you all know who you are. This week went back to basics with some easy and useful phrases: Ittekimasu, Itterasshai, Tadaima and Okaeri. Enjoy!

It’s been quite a while but Beb was back this week to record this week’s podcast together with Waka sensei and myself. We hung outside Osaka castle and I asked Waka sensei and Beb to teach me some useful phrases for giving presents in Japan. The idea to do this show came from a suggestion sent in by Kaya from Canada. So a bit shout out to you. Hope you enjoy this week’s episode.

In today’s lesson, Waka sensei teaches us a very useful phrase “Kamben shite”. This is used for excusing yourself from things you don’t want to do, something you might find yourself doing a lot in Japan. We recorded today’s podcast outside in the park so apologies for the noise in the background
