Lesson Eighteen: Greetings
When trying to learn a foreign language it’s always good to know a few basic phrases. They’re always helpful! Recently I’ve been teaching things that require a lot of thought, but phrases just require memorization. I figured it’s time to give you a break.
So, here are some phrases!
how are you? | genki desu ka? | げんきですか？ |
I am fine | genki desu | げんきです |
and you? | anata wa? | あなたは？ |
thank you very much | doumo arigatou | どうもありがとう |
you’re welcome | douitashimashite | どういたしまして |
You can add “gozaimasu” to the end of “ohayou” to make it more polite. Don’t forget to check your pronunciation!
good morning | ohayou | おはよう |
good evening | konban wa | こんばんは |
hey | oi | おい |
excuse me | sumimasen | すみません |
sorry | gomen | ごめん |
Alright, let’s play a little game to help you get used to them.
GAME: Multiple choice
You know, I think you deserve a new game. You’ve been doing so well!
GAME: Flash cards
I hope you enjoyed the easy lesson. I’ll be teaching verb types and conjugation in the next lesson.
