  • Episode 3 - How to 日本語?

    Welcome back to another episode of trying to figure out how long we should let the intro song play! In today’s episode, we talk about our current experiences with Japanese and English, as well as mention some ways we practice learning languages. All while a bunch of planes circle our apartment! Hize tells the tale of his heroic story helping his friend with a fridge in Japanese. Saori also reminisces over memories of first learning English in school and her love for boy bands. Like always, this podcast is best enjoyed with a nice glass of Saori’s favorite beverage, 3.6% milk!

    エピソード3では最近のお互いの英語、日本語での出来事を話しました!ハイズが日本語で(!)友達を助けた話やさおりが学生のときハマっていたアイドルの話をしています。

    好きな飲み物とおやつとともに聴いてもらえたらうれしいです!(ちなみにさおりは毎日牛乳を飲んでいます笑)
