I am trying to learn at least one new phrase in Japanese each day. One thing that helps me commit them to memory is to make up a song or dance to go with the phrases.
This is something my students and I do all the time in the classroom to learn a new word. We have so much fun and share a lot of laughs when we act out words.
Here is today's Japanese lesson:(the u after an s is not pronounced in Japanese)
ohayou gozaimasu means Good morning.
genki desu ka? means How are you?
genki desu means I am fine.
Sing the following song to the tune of London Bridge is falling Down:
Ohayou gozaimasu
genki desu ka
genki desu ka
genki desu ka
Ohayou gozaimasu
genki desu ka
gen-ki de-su
More Phrases
Here are a couple of Japanese videos. Educational and humorous! Mostly humorous.
