Hiatus Post      2020.04.03     Friday        休けい時間 きゅうけい じかん 

令和243   金曜日

おはよう、大切な(大切な) 学生    Good morning,  treasured students  
今日(きょう)は 金曜日 です ね.    
今日も いい お天気(てんき)です。      Today, too, the (honorable) weather is good.
今日 の ほう が きのう より 温度(おんど)は あたたかい です。The temperature will be warmer today than ( it was) yesterday.

There was an article in the Japan Times yesterday (I think) saying that the government is planning to give 2 face masks to each family (50,000,000 families) in Japan.  There’s also a funny cartoon as a sidebar of this article, criticizing the policy.  Can you figure out what it says?  Below is the link to the article.  What do you think of this idea?





Japanese 3-4

Let’s take it easy over the weekend.  We’ve been very  まじめ   all this week.  So, what I want you to do is go to YouTube and find a Japanese TV commercial with English subtitles.  Watch it several times.  What is it about?  Does it seem like American TV commercials to you?  Why, or why not? 
Have a good weekend.  いい 週末(しゅうまつ)を おすごし 下さい。

宿題 しゅくだい   Homework 

A.   Send me the link to the commercial you chose, answer the questions, and also send me at least 5 Japanese words that you recognize, with their English translations.

B.   Practice the漢字 kanji from the Chapter 8 漢字のシート kanji sheet. 

C. Extra credit:  Read the article from the Japan Times above and send me your opinion about it.  Is it a good idea?  What does the cartoon mean?




Japanese 5-6


I want you to take it easy this weekend.  Do you have Netflix or Hulu or something else at home?  Do you have DVDs of any Japanese movies with  subtitles?  If so, watch your favorite movie again.  You probably are able to understand more of the Japanese than you used to.  Do you think the subtitles are accurate?
 
Have a good weekend.  いい 週末(しゅうまつ)を おすごし 下さい。
