Mon, 14 Nov 2022 - 14min - 136 - 136.【会話後半】Chat With Yuji Tanaka Part 2 | 25 Minutes Japanese Listening Comprehension 日本語学習者リスニング練習
このエピソードはまだ動画になっていません。今作っています。最近は毎週ポッドキャストを投稿しているんですが、今月(2022年10月)はポッドキャストを2回しか投稿しません。田中さんとの会話を前半と後半に分けて2回投稿します。字幕なしの自然なスピードの会話を聞いて日本語のリズムや音に浸ってみてください😊
Editor's note - Yuji-san speaks in a more casual manner which would not be appropriate for talking to everyone. Please be careful if emulating his style of speech as it is both casual and very masculine; women would sound strange speaking like this. Phrases ending in っす or abbreviating ありがとうございます to あざーす are more typical (but not exclusive to) college-age Japanese men.
Thank you for your love and support💗
