Listen "Gift-giving in Japan(ese)"
Episode Synopsis
Giving gifts is a pivotal part of Japanese culture, not only during Christmas. Of course that is also reflected in the Japanese language. In this episode you learn all the grammar and vocabulary for giving and receiving (even if you don't know any Japanese yet), and when it is wise to not give gifts.
In the second part of this epsiode, I talk about how Christmas is celebrated in Japan, including useful vocabulary.
In the end, you will receive a small present from me :)
