Just as we are staying home in many places in the U.S., especially in
the big cities, people are also sheltering-in-place in Japan, especially in the
Tokyo area. Japanese people are making
contact on their cell phones, on their computers, and so forth. Something people are NOT doing is going out
to the public baths 銭湯（せんとう） or hot springs
baths 温泉（おんせん）, a favorite
relaxing activity in normal times. An
online source on Japanese culture has found out that there are now broadcasts
scenes from the public baths to comfort and encourage viewers, even though they
can’t go out to share them. Here’s a
link.
Take a look. Would this comfort
and reassure you?
Just in case you want to review the hand-washing songs from last week,
here they are.
Handwashing video by Pikotaro (not 日本語で ,
though---英語で）
Compare it to Arashi’s song.
Which one do you prefer? どちら の ほう が 好き です か。
(Sing Arashi’s hand-washing song.

We’re in Chapter 11 of Nakama now, and we’re going to be learning
about how to say/write that we have had the experience of doing something:
Plain-past-verb + koto ga aru
Have you ever (had the experience of ) bread-making? パン を 作った こと が あります か。
Yes, I have (had the experience
of ) break-baking. はい、パン を 作った こと が あります。
But first we should review how to make the plain past affirmative verb
tense.
It’s easy. It’s just the
te-form, with the te replaced by ta.
Examples:
食べて 食べた
書いて 書いた
宿題 しゅくだい
A. Let’s make the te form and then the plain past tense
for each of the following verbs. Be sure
to figure out what group each verb is in:
Group 1 (u verbs), Group 2 (ru verbs), or Group 3 (irregular verbs).
To get on/ride (a vehicle) のる のって のった
To climb のぼる
To laugh /smile わらう
To cry なく
To inhale すう
To exhale はく
To get up/wake up 起きる
To wear (above
waist) きる
To come 来る（くる）
To see/watch 見る
