    About this ebook

    Makoto E-Zine Series #78: The Fun Japanese Not Found in Textbooks

    For Beginners to Lower Intermediates: Boost Your Japanese Journey Today!

     

    Ever wonder about the origin of the fun-to-say word ピーマン? Look no further than the pages of this issue. In our jokes section, a grandfather has a brilliant idea for every aspiring parent out there. The beginner story examines the difference between きてない and きたない, which can sometimes sound the same to an English speaker's ear. We also continue our exploration of ancient Japanese history with a look at the 飛鳥時代 (Asuka Period).

    We're thrilled to have you as part of our ever-growing Makoto family. So, grab an ice-cold 麦茶 (むぎちゃ barley tea), stay curious, and let's embark on another month of linguistic adventures together!

    こんにちは、みなさん！

    Welcome to the August 2024 issue of Makoto! As summer reaches its peak, we hope you're staying cool and enjoying your Japanese language learning journey. This month in this issue and on www.MakotoPlus.com, we have an exciting array of content to keep you entertained and help you deepen your understanding of Japanese language and culture.

    Ever wonder about the origin of the fun-to-say word ピーマン? Look no further than the pages of this issue. In our jokes section, a grandfather has a brilliant idea for every aspiring parent out there. The beginner story examines the difference between きてない and きたない, which can sometimes sound the same to an English speaker’s ear. We also continue our exploration of ancient Japanese history with a look at the 飛鳥時代 (Asuka Period).

    We're thrilled to have you as part of our ever-growing Makoto family. So grab an ice-cold 麦茶 むぎちゃ (barley tea), stay curious, and let's embark on another month of linguistic adventures together!

    Thank you!

    Clay & Yumi

    P.S. The cover says, 暑あつくなってきましたね。, which means, It’s gotten hot, hasn’t it!
