A 30-day positive affirmation journey with Rose

Day 5

In the vocabulary of 'Minna no Nihongo' Chapter 1, there are the words ”きょうし”  and ”せんせい” . Do you understand the difference? Both translate to 'teacher,' but ”きょうし” generally refers to school teachers, with a few exceptions. For example, it does not refer to those who teach at cram schools . On the other hand, ”せんせい” has a broader meaning. At this point in Lesson 1, you might not need to worry too much about it, but I will explain.

Of course, school teachers are included, but also instructors at cram schools, doctors, politicians, and sports instructors can all be called '先生.' In Lesson 17 on page 145, there is a conversation between a doctor and Matsumoto-san, and if Matsumoto-san were to refer to this doctor, they would normally call them “せんせい” not ”いしゃ” , which means ”doctor.”

This might change the subject a bit, but regarding my 'Minna no Nihongo course,' I have created a substantial amount of homework with audio. Just taking lessons alone won't significantly improve your skills. I believe this homework will be quite effective. Of course, it is not mandatory; whether to do it or not depends on the students. 
For those who want to start Japanese lessons but aren’t sure where to begin, please give it a try.

Alright. So everyone, please do your best with Japanese. See you again!

みんなの日本語Chapter OneⅡきょうし vs　せんせい

Describe something you did to learn another language.
You should say: 
What language did you learn.
What you did.
How did it help you learn the language.
And explain how you felt about it.





“I’ve always had a great interest, and fascination with  anything related to Japan, especially Japanese manga comics and movies….so, about 2 years ago I decided that I’d try to learn the language, and also made a plan to visit Japan someday. 

Although I’d picked up some Japanese words, and phrases from watching movies and cartoons over the years, I still needed to start learning the language from scratch, and was at sixes and sevens on where to start.  One of my friends who actually studied Japanese in college, recommended a youtube channel to me, which is hosted by a native Japanese teacher, and I decided to give it a shot. 

 The video lessons were wonderful, and I found that I was able to start picking up the language very quickly, from the very first lesson, with the added bonus that it was all free!  The teacher was wonderful, and really helped make learning the language a lot of fun, as well as getting me off to a flying start, and after just a few weeks,  my Japanese started to improve by leaps and bounds.

The time flew by, and after just 6 months, I was actually able to have a basic conversation in Japanese which I felt extremely happy and proud of, and actually got to visit Japan about six months ago, which was absolutely amazing, especially as I was now able to communicate with the locals….all thanks to this amazing youtube channel. 


Thank you …”

《是妈妈是女儿》is a song performed on Spring Festival Gala, which is called the most moving performance.
--------------------------------------------------
《是妈妈是女儿》
【妈妈】我的孩子啊
我不知道自己做得够好吗
我是第一次做妈妈
尽管岁月已吹白我的头发
送你上学第一天
要你勇敢 我却哭了
后来你每回离家挥手说走啦
当告别已变得轻松
可我的心还会空
【女儿】亲爱的妈妈
我不知道自己做得够好吗
我是第一次做女儿
可也是第一次来做我
离开家的那天车开之后偷偷哭了
我不想让你担心 笑着挥手呢
人长大不轻松
我后来才知道
【妈妈】孩子会穿过大雨
去懂人间的道理
我只能唠叨因为我已帮不上你了
【女儿】妈妈会留在童年
给我打很多电话
说院子的花开了
我先挂了 地铁上
【妈妈】早上吃饭了吗
按时睡觉了吗
原谅我 只懂这样参与你生活
【女儿】可我都没做得到所以不说话
【妈妈】吃饭了吗
【女儿】不想对你撒谎啊 又怕你难过
【妈妈】累不累啊
【女儿】匆匆挂了电话后
【妈妈、女儿】发现我是那么地想念你啊
【妈妈】我的孩子啊
我不知道自己做得够好吗
放手如果是一门功课
妈妈一生没考过
【女儿】没有按时吃饭
忙碌不是我的错
如果让你知道 却会令我很愧疚
你的嘘寒问暖 我知道是为我好的
但又让我觉得 我不曾被信任着
【妈妈】不担心的人啊 一定不做妈妈
我知道全知道 可是我心疼啊
【女儿】请放心让我前往属于我的人生吧
你那么勇敢善良 我很像你就不怕
【妈妈】有一天你也会成为一个妈妈
【女儿】那一天我们会深深地拥抱吗
【妈妈、女儿】像溪水环游世界
拥抱回它出生的河流
我希望你被爱着
我希望你要快乐
我希望我的双手可以为你挡着风
我知道爱会争吵
我知道人会变老
所以那一句爱你一定要大声地说
列车会准点吗
路上有吃的吗
到家后不管几点饭都会热着
穿过妈妈的目光离家的小巷
快到了吗
穿过拥挤的车厢回忆的滚烫
门开着呢
穿过温柔的时光
有你的地方我就有路回家
回家吧
【妈妈】我的孩子啊
我不知道自己做得够好吗
但有件事我非常确定
你是最好的女儿
请相信自己
