Purikura

Hello everyone how have u been? I went back to Japan for 2weeks, that's why I couldn't put new post and response. ofcourse I didn't forget to take pics for uuuu! yeaaaaaaaah!!



 My hometown is Tokyo, u know Tokyo has many big city Shinjyuku, Shibuya, Harajyuku, Ikebukuro and Ginza.  When I lived in Japan I usually go to Ikebukuro. I think someone know this city cuz it became set of anime "デュラララ!! (DURARARA!!) " and Japanese drama "池袋ウエストゲートパーク(I.W.G.P)".I recommend watch this anime>< It's fun and really close with real city!→http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Rt5U3Do86SM&feature=related








 So on this time also I went there with my friends^^ And I found Japanese culture in there!! It's...Purikura(プリクラ)!!! This isrefers to a photo sticker booth or the product of such a photo booth. I can't explain well~then..I took pics about it


Most game center has section of Purikura, 池袋GiGO is the biggest in Ikebukuro. If u want u can rent some costume on free! I did manytimesXD Actually each machine has different effect.


This pic is in the box. All machine has so many lights and camera. First chose how take photo and flame.



After taking photos chose ur favorite pic and drawing on the pics. then finally the pics is  printed!


This is my favorite idol's purikuraXD so cuuuute<3  Prikura is sticker , so u can put on anywhere. If u have chance try to play with Purikura! It will be fun!!

Bean-Throwing Festival

hi! Do u know what is it today!?...yes! Febrary3rd :).......NO WAY!! What a simple answer u said!

Today is Setsubun. This is Japanese traditional event (Bean-Throwing Festival). So let's talk about it!


 Roasted soybeans (called 福豆fuku mame) are thrown either out the door or at a member of the family wearing an demon(鬼oni) mask, while the people say "Demons out! Luck in!" "鬼は~外っ! 福は~~内っっ!! Oni wa soto! Fuku wa uchi!" and slam the door. I tryed to find pics, but I can find only this !looool  May be it's in a kindegarten and some teachers immitate for demonXP






And a lots people will attend a shrine or temple's spring festival where this is done. Actually I heve never tryed to go shirines or temples on this festivalXD




 Then, as part of bringing luck in, it is customary to eat roasted soybeans, one for each year of one's life, and in some areas, one for each year of one's life plus one more for bringing good luck for the year to come...Wikipedia said←um?  Every year my father tried to eat soybeans same as his age, he couldn't every year!!!






 In Setsubun we have other custom! It is customary now to eat uncut makizushi called Eho-Maki (恵方巻)  in silence on Setsubun while facing the yearly lucky compass direction, determined by the zodiac symbol of that year...This also Wikipedia said←um!?  By the way..who is this boyXD I can't find but this pic!


hi, boy!! How is it taste! good!??..oh~~that's good! enjoy ur meal on my blog!






So that's all about Setsubun, how is it? It sounds like fun and interesting isn't it??lol
If u wanna know more, look here→http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Setsubun

--after u saw this one ,plz push reaction button or writing comment! It's good for my motivationXD--

Question section

I got a few question from my student!
---
Teacherrrr help meeee(´;ω;`)
For adjectives like "すき" or "きらい"; they are sometimes used to say "I like/dislike *something/someone*", right??

Any way, I have a question about which should I use  in this case がor は…for exampleIf I wanna say 「I like Utada Hikaru」 which is natural 宇多田ヒカルがすき or 宇多田ヒカルはすき?(´・ω・`)
Also, if I want to include a pronoun I must say わたしは宇多田ヒカルがすき but not わたしが宇多田ヒカルが好き, right?? But I don't know why is that and it's confusing me a bit…(ㆀ˘・з・˘)------

(*宇多田ヒカル is a popular singer in Japan.)





Ok..let me think.....by the way..What a cute emotions u useeeeeeeed!!!!
oops!..sorry sorry let's talk about this questions.



I like someone/somethig.=わたしは someone/somethingが すきです。

I dislike someone/something.=わたしは someone/somethingが きらいです。


If u learn by heart this u can use easily. But I think u wanna know the reason. So I'll explain why we use like that. It's a little bit difficult ...try to follow me.





(わたしは)宇多田ヒカルがすき。=I like Utada hikaru

If u say 宇多田ヒカルはすき。=Utada hikaru likes.../ (I like only Utada hikaru.) 





Can u get what is different between them? Subject is different. First one's subject is わたし. However how about next one? 宇多田ヒカル became as subject. 





And in Japanese we never repeat は or が in a same sentence. u can use both in a sentence bit don't use more than twice.

That's why "わたしが宇多田ヒカルがすき" this is impossible.







-------from here I'll write for advance, cuz this is very difficult.--------


Subject  は Objectが Adjective です。

This is new grammar. I'll definitely teach this after, but now I'll teach u.
This grammar's form is same as わたしは someone/somethingが すきです。



今日は 夕日が きれいです。=Today's sunset is beautiful.

昨日は 天気が 良かったです。=Yesterday was good weather.

彼は 脚(ashi)が 長い です。=He has long legs.

もみじは 秋が 見頃(migoro)です。=Momiji's good season is in autumn.




....Is it enough?loool I can't find when can I finishXD
Maybe I can response to ur question and extra. I hope good for ur skill up.






If u have some questions u can ask me. I'll teach on here^^

Basic verbs 2 -for advanced-

Today's lesson is about Basic verbs 2! it's too hard to make this~; So after this post I'll have a restXD


First I planned to teach only present form ,but after we'll learn "+て" form. today plz watch only present form and meaning!lol





〈present or future sentence〉 Subject + Verb(u→i) + ます


〈past sentence〉 Subject + Verb(u→i) + ました






This rule is different from last one and a little bit more difficult. I'll give a few example for this one.




I run.=私は はしり ました。 ←look underline(verb)





What is the original form of "はしり"? Can u find it or remember? "はしる" is correct.
Then let's write both of them by roman letter!! I think it's the easiest way to get this rule> <


"hashiru" and "hashiri" attention last vowel(red letter)!! ui ...yes!!! those verbs have same rules!
u wanna see more right?




My brother will buy a car.=私の兄は車を 買 ます。(kau→kai)


I put on the pic.=私は絵 を 貼 ました。(haru→hari)


The baby stood up.=赤ちゃん は 立ました。(tatsu→tachi)







Next!today also I teach very useful grammar.




Subject + something に + Verb

something に = on something/ to somewhere /to someone



I got on the bus.=私は バスに 乗りました。


I entered to staff room.=私は 職員室に 入りました。


I said to my friend.=私は 友達に 言いました。







eh? It' s easy? That's great!! ur clever~what a good student~<3
May be U can guess what am I sayingXD yes! H.W!!!!


1. I thought.
