I have been asked this question a lot lately and I'm hoping that an understanding of my teaching philosophy will help people take better examples of these episodes.

Using people's names is a huge part of Japanese culture. Which is why being able to address people by their names with the correct suffix or title is incredibly important. Doing so incorrectly will result in possibly offending them. Be careful.

One of the best things to know about Japanese is that sometimes, alot of the times, less is more. Vagueness and beating around the bush are not only part of Japanese language, but also Japanese culture. This 5 minute bite is a little tidbit of how to use that in your Nihongos
This is a fun and interesting conjunction that is very commonly used. I think this should be alot of help.
This episode is for those ladies studying Japanese. I figured you needed a couple episodes for you lovely vernacular.
