Happy Father’s Day in Japanese Posted by on May 30, 2017 in Culture, Grammar

It’ almost the end of May, believe it or not. Time is flying by these days. Before we know it, Father’s Day will be here soon. Since I discussed Mother’s Day in my last post, I thought I would talk about Father’s Day next. Father’s Day is always celebrated on the 3rd Sunday of June in Japan. It is not a public holiday, but many people celebrate by thanking their fathers on this special day just for fathers.

Why not send your father a special note of thanks on Father’s Day. If you are leaning Japanese, you can try one of these expressions below. 🙂  If you are just starting to learn Japanese, try one of the simple messages below.
