みなさん、こんにちは。かのうかなです。(Mina-san, konnichiwa. Kanō Kana desu.) |
"Hi everyone! I'm Kana Kano." |
In this lesson, you’ll learn how to ask what a word is in Japanese. |
This is Ben Lee, and he's at a cafe doing a language exchange with his classmate, Hana Hashimoto. |
It’s the Japanese portion of the exchange, and he points at the textbook and asks, |
"How do you say "textbook" in Japanese?" |
Textbookは、にほんごで なんと いいますか。(Textbook wa, Nihon-go de nan to iimasu ka.) |
Listen to the conversation, and focus on the question. |
Ready? |
Textbookは、にほんごで なんと いいますか。(Textbook wa, Nihon-go de nan to iimasu ka.) |
きょうかしょです。(Kyōkasho desu.) |
Once more with the English translation. |
