✨ Why Learn Partner Expressions in Japanese?
Mastering expressions like “who,” “with,” and “together” helps you describe relationships and interactions smoothly. These simple words allow you to talk about who you are with, who you’re doing something with, and how you’re spending time together. Using these expressions correctly will improve your ability to share plans, experiences, and conversations, making your Japanese sound more natural and fluent.

✅Practice using the vocabulary: Make simple sentences using the words you’ve learned. For example, try saying “I go with my friend” using the words for “friend” (ともだち) and “go” (いきます).
✅Use “いっしょに”: Remember that “いっしょに” (together) adds a friendly tone, so use it when you want to express doing something together, not just “with.”
✅Ask and answer questions: Try asking someone “だれと いきますか?” and answer with “きむさんと いきます” to practice your question and answer skills.
✅Take your time with kanji: While learning kanji, start with basic characters like “父” (father) and “母” (mother) to get familiar with their readings and meanings.
