Today, I’m going to share “goodbye” in Japanese with you.  It would be expressed in many ways depending on situations, so I’ll pick several.

The last time I introduced you the greeting, “Good morning” in Japanese.  Do you still remember the word?  Yes, that’s “O-ha-yoh.” Today you are going to learn greetings at night time. 

Hello! Kon-ni-chi-wa.   I’ve been talking about greetings.  Today, I’m going to teach you “Good morning” in Japanese.

Today, I want to talk about one of the differences between English and Japanese.  Of course, there are many things such as letters, grammar, pronunciation, and so on.   But what confused me is that “thank you” is used in English when Japanese say “I’m sorry.”

Today, I am talking about Japanese history.  But, I am neither a historian nor professor, so I share what I have learned from my history classes with you.  According to them, Japanese people already had a culture 16,500 years ago.  They used stone knives and created decorated vases.

Today, you will learn “ こんにちは: Kon – ni -chi – wa.”  The meaning is “Hello.”   I believe many people know this word if they are interested in Japan.
