Let’s start the new year with a new fervor to learn Japanese? Need a tool to help you learn Japanese? Try the Word of the Day! Every month I post a couple of words either in English or Japanese. Your job is to figure out the meanings. If post the word in Japanese, answer in English. If I post the word in English, answer in Japanese. The Word of the Day contains an audio mechanism which you can click to hear how the word is pronounced. On top of that, it provides a sentence containing the word, so you get a sense of the context in which it’s being used! I’ll post the answers (along with the links) in the next blog post.
