Let’s do another Japanese Challenge! 🇯🇵🍳

In today’s episode, we’re talking about Omurice, a popular Japanese dish made with ketchup rice wrapped in an omelet!

First, I’ll tell you a short story about Omurice in simple Japanese. Try to understand as much as you can!

Then, we’ll look at a useful Japanese expression:

✨ 〜っぽい (-ppoi) — -ish / -like

For example:

• ようしょくっぽい — Western-style / Western-like
• こどもっぽい — childish
• にほんっぽい — Japanese-like

Finally, I’ll read the English translation so you can check your understanding.

Listen carefully, enjoy the challenge, and learn a little more Japanese with me!

Some Japanese expressions seem easy at first, but the little details can be surprisingly tricky! 🇯🇵

In this episode, we’ll look at everyday expressions that Japanese learners might not know how to use naturally.

📏 Why do we say 159センチ for height?
⚖️ Why do we often say キロ instead of キログラム?
🚗 What does 60キロ mean when we’re talking about speed?
🌡️ How do you say 36.7°C in Japanese?
📱 Do you know how to read zero in a Japanese phone number?

We’ll explore these small but useful details and compare Japanese expressions with English.

Sometimes, it’s the little things that make your Japanese sound more natural!
