Lesson Two ^^

     Hi…How was the first lesson? I hope you liked it. Here’s another one, useful daily expressions you may use to greet people in Japanese.

     BTW, I’m watching closely about what is happening in Japan now. The nuclear crisis seems worsens. That was what I read about it in Yahoo this morning. They say the France nuclear authority classified it as a Level Six on a one-to-seven scale used to rank nuclear accidents.

I really hope that the government will be able to put an end to the crisis very soon.

Cheers,

Sensei in the House.
