More lessons about verb conjugation in newbie lesson?

[watermen]

I realized that all the newbie lessons recently just talk about -iru, -aru...can we have newbie lessons on different thing? Such as verb conjugation...?

I get the impression that the newbie series is just for the completely-new-to-the-language demographic who might happen to stumble across the site, or the podcasts on iTunes. These people need something immediately accessible if they're going to be sucked into the site, so it's realistic to assume the series will continue as is.

Since the beginner series is a linear course that teaches you all the basic grammar, the newbie lessons are fulfilling their purpose: to give you a taster of the language, and encourage you onto the next level. They still offer something of interest to other levels, at least to me anyway. The point about pronunciation of the が-column mentioned today hasn't been covered anywhere else, for example.

i think the beginner lessons cover the conjugation enough as it is.
plus, that frabrizo guy is annoying enough for me to not listen to the series

Ha..same here...Frabrizo is super annoying...feel like punching him... But honestly speaking all the characters there are very annoying too....
