Practice あります (arimasu) and います (imasu) with this beginner-friendly Japanese lesson!

In this practice episode, we’ll do:
✅ Round 1 – Repeat after me (English → Japanese)
✅ Round 2 – Situation practice (Translate before I answer!)

You’ll practice useful everyday phrases like:

• Nihon ni wa shiki ga arimasu.
• Shinjuku ni wa takusan no hito ga imasu.
• Watashi wa kyou ie ni imasu.
• Dareka imasu ka?
• Kono chikaku ni toire wa arimasu ka?
• Pen arimasu ka?
• Chiketto arimasu ka?

🎧 If you haven’t listened to Episode 75 yet, I recommend starting there first. It explains when to use arimasu and imasu, and this episode helps you practice them naturally.

I upload a new Japanese podcast almost every day to help beginners speak natural Japanese through short grammar lessons, culture tips, listening practice, and speaking practice.

In this episode, we’ll learn the difference between あります (arimasu) and います (imasu).

These words are often translated as “there is / there are,” but in real Japanese they can also mean have, exist, or simply describe a situation.

You’ll learn:

• arimasu vs imasu
• People vs things
• Useful travel phrases
• Why Japanese doesn’t change for singular and plural

After listening to this episode, go back and listen to the previous Japanese Only Challenge episode—you’ll understand much more!
