Practice

David
▶︎ It’s time for today’s practice. Sometimes we want to add extra infromation.
It’s not essential, must-have information, but we want to add it anyways.
When you listen to these sentences, you can hear a short pause.

Roza
▶︎ This type of sentence is one of my favorites. So let’s practice together.
Repeat after us.
※ my sister, who ⬜︎ lives in Mie ×2
All together.
・My sister, who ⬜︎ lives in Mie, visites Ise Jingu often.

David
▶︎ Great work. Let’s continue.
※ Sakata, where I was born…
Do you feel that short pause? It’s not “Sakata where I was born.”
Let’s try that one more time.
※ Sakata, where I was born
And now the full sentence.
・Sakata, where I was born, is on the coast.

Roza
▶︎ All right. And one more.
※ last summer, when I moved here ×2
OK, the full sentence.
・Last summer, when I moved here, was very hot.

David
▶︎ Unlock your potential.

Roza
▶︎ Repetition is the key.

Roza & David
▶︎ Great work.
