 Konnichiwa everybody. Welcome to the class. Are you all ready for more Japanese today? Well, we will do a lot of things today with the help of what we have done in our previous classes. Last time we did imasu and arimasu that is to show existence of living and non-living things. So, well with the help of that we will do something new in this class and also learn new kanjis and new expressions. So, well first of all let me tell you about this greeting that I keep using all the time. Konnichiwa this is a simple expression, a simple greeting which means hello in Japanese and you can use it anytime you want but not in the evening. It is a daytime greeting around 11, 10 in the morning till 5 or maybe till sunset you can say Konnichiwa to anybody you meet anywhere you meet. So, you have two people here each of them is saying Konnichiwa. Now, before we actually start doing as I had said earlier something new in Japanese. Well, we will go back to our assignments, do the assignments and see you can check your assignments and see what you have done is correct or not. Well, this is your assignment one and you can see a lot of people standing over here. It is a family picture, photograph and you have children, you have ladies, you have male members, gents standing at the back. So, well let us see what the exercise is Nan nin imasuka. So, we have to count people, we have to tell how many people are there in the picture. So, the first one the question is Nan nin imasuka, nin is the counter for people. So, let us see how many are there you can count I am sure and juu ni nin imasu. So, there are 12 people in the picture and then we have the second one otoko no ko wa nan nin imasuka and the answer to that is hitori imasu and we are only talking over here of otoko no ko which is a boy, onna no ko girls, onna no hito ladies and otoko no hito males. So, we are trying to be very specific and Nan nin imasuka how many people are there. So, please try to answer. Then you have onna no ko wa nan nin imasuka. So, you have 2 girls over here futari imasu. If you remember we have done hitori futari san nin, yo nin, go nin, roku nin, nana nin, hachi nin, kyu nin, juu nin, juu ichi nin and so on for counting people. So, you can practice that over here. Onna no hito wa nan nin desu ka? You have these ladies standing over here onna no hito wa nan nin desu ka? Let us see how many are there. Hai, yo nin imasu and please remember over here it is yo nin and not yo nin. As I told you earlier as well yo nin, yo and not yo. Please remember that that is very essential. And then we have in the end another question for you. Otoko no hito wa nan nin desu ka? And well the answer is go nin imasu. Hitori futari san nin, yo nin, go nin. I hope you got it alright. Now we go on to the next assignment. Practice saying sai which is age. So, you have this photograph here and you have a lot of people you can see here their age is given and you have to ask how old they are. Well, this is Tanaka san, Oku san, Musume san, Musuko san, Oyome san, Aka-chan. So, you have these people over here of Tanaka san's family. You can ask Tanaka san wa nan sai desu ka in the beginning and then you can go on to ask how old his wife is. Oku san wa nan sai desu ka? Musume san wa nan sai desu ka? Oyome san wa nan sai desu ka? Aka-chan wa nan sai desu ka? Musuko san wa nan sai desu ka? And so on. All the words are given over here for you. You can see and ask your partner. Practice like this, your age and all this vocabulary. Now we also did last time, locational nouns if you remember. How to tell where a certain thing is, where a certain place is, whether it is on something, next to something, under something, inside something, outside a certain place. So, well, practice your locational nouns here. The questions are like this. Ginkou wa doko ni arimasu ka? So, ginkou is over here. Ginkou wa doko ni arimasu ka? You can also say ginkou wa doko desu ka? Arimasu shows existence of non-living things. So, well, you can practice that and then your answer could be ginkou wa restaurant no mae ni arimasu. So, this is the restaurant or the cafeteria. Ginkou, where is the ginkou? Ginkou is in front of the cafeteria. So, well, ginkou wa restaurant no mae ni arimasu or you could also say ginkou wa yubinkyou no tonari ni arimasu. Instead of ginkou, you can also use some other noun over here, another place you can say and you can talk about that, you can ask about that. So, well, let us see. Restaurant wa supa no tonari ni arimasu. Restaurant wa doko ni arimasu ka? Question and then answer is restaurant wa supa no tonari ni arimasu. This is a supermarket. So, well, restaurant wa supa market no tonari ni arimasu. So, you can practice like this, practice your locational nouns and the vocabulary that we have done in our previous lessons. Now, we have match group A with group B. We have been doing this all through. So, well, let us see what it is. Kokuban, blackboard, kouen, futsuka, second futari, two people. Gochisousama, thanks for the food. Asobimasu, play, oyougimasu, swim, ginkou, bank, kyoshitsu, classroom, ushiro, back or behind and we have in the end soba which is nearby. Gochisousama as you can see we did last time this is an expression used after having had food. Thank you God for all the good food that you have given me. So, this is just an expression. Well, try to remember that. It is nice to know these expressions because if you are there in Japan or with Japanese people, it is always nice to use their expressions that somehow makes things very easy and convenient. Write the readings of the characters given below in Hiragana. Now, we have done quite a few things in the previous lessons and it is actually very important to learn Hiragana as well because this is a new script. We are doing it in Roman over here but it is essential for us to be able to write what we are doing in Hiragana and Kanji. So, these things are very important with what we are doing now with grammar, with conversation. Hiragana is also essential. So, please practice this at home and try to write it. So, well, we have the first one is okane, ooki, shita, junin, juuichi. Mizu, kayoubi, gogatsu, hon, ichinichi juu and please practice this. Write it again and again so that the words come out very nicely. Then we also did last time nan nin imasu ka? How many people are present? So, well, look at this picture and see how many people are present over here. How many do you see? Well, two people are present. So, what will the answer be? We just did hitori futari. So, well, nan nin imasu ka? Futari imasu. So, there are two people over here. But now when you look at this picture, what do you see? There is no one. So, what should the answer be? Nan nin imasu ka? It could be zero people. It could be zero nin imasu. But that is not used at all. There is a better way of saying it which is daremo imasen. Now this word, question word dare, we have done. Dare is a question word which means who and if you add more to it, daremo is equal to no one or nobody. Nobody is present. So, nan nin imasu ka? Daremo imasen. Nobody is present. Now, as I had promised, we are going to do something new today. We are going to learn new kanji and also how to ask politely someone to do something for you or to invite people over. So, well, invite them to do something with you. So, well, piknik e ikimashou, that is what we are going to do. Before that, listen to this radio conversation and let us see how much you have understood and then I will explain. Moshi moshi? Moshi moshi. Arun san, konnichiwa. Rao desu. Konnichiwa Rao san, o genki desu ka? O kage sama de genki desu. Arun san, ashta yasumi desu ne? Hai sou desu. Nanin o shimasu ka? Nanin mo shimasen. Ja, kurabu e ikimasen ka? Sore wa ii desu ne? Ja, ashta hachi ji wa dou desu ka? Hachi ji wa daijoubu desu. Kuruma de ikimasu ka? Iie, densha de ikimashou. So, well, did you understand something? I am sure quite a bit of it is understood by you by now. Well, I will read it once for you and explain as well. This is conversation between two people Futari no Kaiwa, Rao san and Arun san. So, well, I will just read it out to you. Moshi moshi? Moshi moshi. Arun san, konnichiwa Rao desu. Konnichiwa Rao san, o genki desu ka? O kage sama de genki desu. Arun san, ashta yasumi desu ne? Hai sou desu. Nanin o shimasu ka? Nanin mo shimasen. Ja, kurabu e ikimasen ka? Sore wa ii desu ne? Ja, ashta hachi ji wa dou desu ka? Hachi ji wa daijoubu desu. Kuruma de ikimasu ka? Iie, densha de ikimashou. So, a simple conversation between Rao san and Arun san. On the phone, moshi moshi. Arun san, konnichiwa. Of course, you understand. The new phrase is o genki desu ka? Well, are you in good health, in good shape? You are keeping well. O kage sama de genki desu. Thank you very much. I am alright. Arun san, ashta yasumi desu ne? Tomorrow is a holiday. Hai sou desu. Nanin o shimasu ka? What are you going to do tomorrow? Nanin mo shimasen. Nothing. Ja, kurabu e ikimasen ka? Well, let's go to the club. Sore wa ii desu ne? That is really, really nice. That is very good. Ja, ashta hachi ji wa dou desu ka? Dou desu ka is another phrase. How about tomorrow at 8 o'clock? Hachi ji wa daijoubu desu. Daijoubu is, well, it is alright at 8 o'clock. Kuruma de ikimasu ka? Are we going by car? No, let us take the train. So, now I will explain all of this to you in detail. This is in the script. You can see how it is written and go through it. Learn all the hiragana, how to write the hiragana and this is the translation of what is there in Roman for you. But, I would like to tell you one thing that this translation is not a literal translation of what is actually there because if you try to translate it then the meaning changes. So, this is what you would say in English. So, please keep that in mind when you are going through this translation. Well, now the first word over there was moshi moshi. When you talk to people on phone, you would say hello as moshi moshi. Please remember that is a telephone expression and not hello as in hi, how are you? Moshi moshi, how are you? No, that is not done. Moshi moshi is to be used only on phone for hello. So, well, both of these people can say moshi moshi as was there in the conversation like this. Then, we have these two people if you are talking informally to someone. You just ring up your friend or you ring up someone at home, what would you do? Moshi moshi is of course, you have just done. Moshi moshi is what you would say first and then what would you say? Well, I am Arun, watashi wa Arun desu or just Arun desu as in this conversation over here and then Konnichiwa and the other person will also tell his name and Konnichiwa or Konnichiwa and name as is given over here. So, this is a very informal way of talking on phone, but there are situations, there are places where you have to be very formal. For example, if you call your friend at home and you want to know whether your friend is at home or not or maybe you call your friend in office and you want to inquire as to your friend is there in office or not. What would you say? How would you inquire? How would you talk on the phone then? Well, there is a different way that is a formal way of talking and you would say moshi moshi of course and then Arun to moshi masu. Watashi wa Arun desu is what we did last time. Over here Arun to moshi masu. I am Arun. Moshi masu is a polite way of saying I am Arun and why polite? Because you are talking to someone else and not to a friend on the phone in office and then maybe your friend is Mariko or Rao or Neha or Tanaka-san or anybody. Mariko san irashaimasu ka? Irashaimasu is polite for imasuka. So, whenever you are talking formally like this, inquiring about someone on phone you would generally say the name of the person and then irashaimasu ka instead of imasuka. So, imasuka would be very very informal and then the answer would be well if the person is Mariko san whom you want to talk to, Mariko san would say Konnichiwa Mariko desu. If it is not Mariko san and someone else, there is a different way of saying which we will do later. Now, you have met Mariko san, you have said I am Arun, Mariko san has said I am Mariko and then what should be the next question? What should you ask next or what should you say next? Well, Ogenki desu ka. Ogenki desu ka is a phrase as was there in the conversation also and it means how are you? Literal translation would be are you in good health? So, in English it would be how are you? And what is the answer to that? Another phrase over here, Okage sama de genki desu. Okage sama de genki desu means thank you, I am in good health, I am alright. Thank you very much. And you could also ask the same question Arun san wa genki desu ka? Arun san wa ogenki desu ka? And Arun san could say Hai, Okage sama de genki desu. Now, one thing you will notice over here which is when you are asking someone you say A san wa ogenki desu ka? And the answer is Hai, Okage sama de genki desu and not ogenki desu. Ogenki is to be used for someone and genki is to be used for oneself. O is onrophic. So, this O as we did earlier with Onamai is going to be used a number of times later. So, please for your family members, for yourself, for friends who are very informal with you generally O is not used and O is used in formal situations and never for oneself. As we did Namae. So, O namae wa nan desu ka? Atashi no namae wa whatever your name. So, please O is not to be used for oneself. Now, we just now did Ogenki desu ka as a phrase inquiring about someone. How are you? Well, there is another meaning to Ogenki desu ka actually you could ask someone if someone as is in the slide you can ask someone if they are actually sick or as is given over here this gentleman is with a plaster. So, Ogenki desu ka? Are you alright now? How are you feeling now? And the answer could be anything actually over here. Let us see what the answer is. Daijou budesu. Now, this is another phrase. Daijou budesu means I am alright. Just a simple informal I am alright now. So, these are some of the usages different ways of using these phrases, different situations where you can use these phrases. Now, in our previous lessons, we have done the masu form of verbs. We have done masu, masen, masuta and masen deshita. So, over here for example, if you say tabemasu. So, if you say watashi wa tabemasu, it means I eat or I will eat. If you say watashi wa tabemasen means I will not eat or I do not eat any of these. But now over here I want to use something different. Watashi wa tabemasen, I do not eat or I will not eat. But now I put a ka over here which is a question particle, makes this sentence into a question form, question statement. Watashi wa tabemasen, anata wa tabemasen ka? If I use this with a rising intonation, then it has a different meaning. It means won't you eat this place? Anata wa over here something, something could be any noun, ringo, keki. Anata wa ringo o tabemasen ka? Won't you eat this apple? Won't you eat an apple? Or anata wa keki o tabemasen ka? Won't you eat this cake please? Or as is given over here, issho ni gohano tabemasen ka? Won't you have food with us? issho ni deli e ikimasen ka? Won't you come with us to deli? So, please remember with masen, if you put this ka with a rising intonation, it has a meaning which is used as a polite invitation as is given over here. And also when you want someone to do something for you, it is a polite way of asking people to do something for you and not a negative please remember that. Though the negative is there, but with ka it changes meaning completely. So, now we will practice this over here. Practice the dialogue with masen ka and different time expressions as is given over here for you. There is a small dialogue, I will just read it out. Ashta yasumi desu. Golfo no renchi wo shimasen ka? Ii desu ne. Ashta gozen kuji wa dou desu ka? Daijoubu desu. So, well you can replace ashta over here with any of these time expressions. And golf no renchi wo is practice. So, golf practice. Oshimasen ka? Will you please do golf practice tomorrow? Ashta wa yasumi desu. Tomorrow is a holiday. So, won't you please do golf practice and with me is understood from the conversation. So, you have tennis, Yamanobori. Yamanobori is mountain climbing, Ryoko is actually tourism or a trip going on a vacation, Ega is films or movies, yachting is you go sailing somewhere and Bijitsukan is a museum. So, well won't you do these things with me? So, you can replace golf no renchi with any of these over here and ashta with any of these time expressions over here and practice with your partner and answer. Of course, time is also over here. You can put different times also and practice. This was how to invite people over, how to ask people to do certain things for you, request people in a polite way to do something for you. Now, as you can see over here and also in the conversation, there was this macho form which was given. So, well this macho form of verb is simple to make macho over here. Verb in macho form, verb plus macho. Now, how do you make it? First thing, we have ikimasu, yomi masu. All you need to do is just remove the masu form from here and put macho instead. Ikimasu means go or will go. Yomi masu means read or will read. Nomi masu means drink or will drink. But the moment you remove masu from here and put macho over here, it means ikimasu means let us go. Yomi masu means let us read and nomi masu means let us drink. Now, when you say let us do a certain activity, what exactly are you doing? Well, you are actually including yourself in the conversation. You are deciding for the person that let us do a certain thing. You are not asking the person, you are simply deciding let us do whatever the verb says. Over here, ikimashou, let us go. Ginko e ikimashou, let us go to the bank. So, when you say let us go to the bank, do you actually ask the person shall we go? No, you just decide for the person and you say just let us go to the go or do whatever the verb is asking us. So, with macho form, let us say you include yourself in the conversation and also decide for the listener whatever the verb is wanting you to do. Now, look at the pictures and say let us do whatever the verb is saying and use macho form. Look at this picture over here. Let us see what they are doing. They are in the cafeteria. So, before that, cafeteria e ikimashou. Place e ikimashou. Then, the second one is look at this picture. This gentleman is eating. So, before that, gohan o tabemashou. Gohan is food and gohan is also cooked rice. So, gohan o tabemashou. Then the third one is kuruma. Kuruma de ikimashou. So, let us go by kuruma. Now, over here you can see we are using three different particles. Place e ikimashou. So, we are using e something o tabemashou. So, we are using particle o something o tabemashou. So, let us use a certain means of transport and go somewhere. So, we are using three different particles over here and you can practice all these with your partner using different verbs different nouns with these particles. Over here you can ask your friend, doko e ikimasu ka or doko e ikimasu ka. Both can be used. In the first one, you are actually asking the person where should we go. And in the second one, you ask doko e ikimasu ka? Where should we go? Let us go somewhere. Doko e ikimasu ka? Let us go somewhere or where shall we go? The answer could be so desu ne or so ne as is given over here. The pato e ikimashou. So, any place e ikimashou. Over here the place names are given. Bijutsukan, art museum, ten rankai, exhibition, boring, the bowling stadiums that you have, bowling places you have, where you can go and practice bowling and then pool. Pool is swimming pool. Then you have yakiu no renshu. Yakiu is baseball. Practice baseball. Cafeteria, of course, you all know. So, you can go to any of these places. You have to use particle e and ikimashou with particle e. So, doko e ikimasu ka or doko e ikimasu ka? Bijutsukan e ikimasu ten rankai e ikimashou, boring e ikimashou and so on. So, you can practice this small conversation with your friends. Now, we did particle ne also in the conversation particle ne. Now, particle ne like particle ka always comes in the end. At the end of a sentence it is a sentence ending particle. With ka you are asking a question actually. You are asking a direct question but with ne there is a slight difference. It is confirmation of what you are saying. So, you want the listener to conform to what you are saying. You already know what you are saying is correct. You have knowledge of what you are saying. You just want your listener, your partner to conform to what you are saying. So, thus it is used in the end. Over here it means write. Don't you agree? Isn't it in English? It is quite similar to that. So, well anatawa gaaksei desu ne. So, I already know that you are a student. I am only conforming as is given over here. Anatawa gaaksei desu ne. Aren't you a student with a rising intonation. Tanaka san no kuruma desu ne. So, I have a faint idea that it is your car. I know that it is your car. I have some knowledge of it and thus I am putting ne over here. If I have no knowledge of it then I would say ka. Tanaka san no kuruma desu ka and it would be a direct question. So, with ne, you can with a rising intonation, you can ask and confirm from your partner about what you are saying. Now, listen to this radio conversation and then we will do something new. Ashita kara shutcho desu ka? Hai, sou desu. Doko e ikimasu ka? Monbe e ikimasu. Itsu modorimasu ka? Raiketsu no muika desu. Ah, watashi wa muika ni kuni e kaerimasu. Soshite gogatsu no futuka ni modorimasu. Ah, sou. Well, most of it is understood. I will just read it out. Rao san and Amit san. Ashita kara shutcho desu ka? Hai, sou desu. Doko e ikimasu ka? Monbe e ikimasu. Itsu modorimasu ka? Raiketsu no muika desu. Ah, watashi wa muika ni kuni e kaerimasu. Soshite gogatsu no futuka ni modorimasu. Ah, sou. So, just a simple conversation between two people and over here we have a new word which is kara. We have done kara in our previous chapters earlier. Hachi-ji kara kujima de shichi-ji kara juu-ji made for time. Over here it is for time expressions. Ashita kara from tomorrow. So with time expressions also you can use kara. And then hai, sou desu. Doko e ikimasu ka? Where are you going? Monbe e ikimasu. Itsu modorimasu ka? Itsu means when? We have done this itsu earlier. And modorimasu is a new word which means to return. So you go out somewhere, you are staying somewhere, you just go out somewhere for a short while and then come back is modorimasu ka? Raiketsu no muika desu. Sixth of next month. Ah, watashi wa muika ni kuni e kaerimasu. Well, I am returning to my country or to my home on the sixth of next month. Soushite gogatsu no futsuka ni modorimasu. And I will be returning on the second of May. Over here the new word is soushite which means and it is a conjunction but surprisingly it is a little different from the English and in English and joins two sentences without a full stop but in Japanese the conjunction begins a sentence as you can see over here. After a full stop a new sentence is using soushite as the first word even though it joins two sentences. So well, with soushite we have sentence one, full stop soushite sentence two unlike the English and you can see in the example over here, kyou ga ko e ikimashita soushite sensei ni aimashita. I went to school today and met the teacher and over here you can see soushite is starting a sentence. In a similar manner kino wa asa tennis no renchi wo shimashita soushite gogukriket wo shimashita. Yesterday I practiced tennis in the morning and then played cricket in the afternoon. So well, you can see the difference in soushite and and. And this is again in the script you can practice your kanji characters, some new kanji are there and this is the translation of what is there in Roman for you and now as we always do we will do kanji. I have been telling you a lot about kanji all these in these previous lessons and also I have talked once about the book that I was using. Well, there is another book that I am using over here for kanji which is a very good book and you can all refer to that book sometime. The book is called Kanji and Kana a hand book and dictionary of the Japanese writing systems by Wolfgang Hadamitski and Mark Spahn. And this is a very good book. It has about 1900 kanji characters with stroke order, with meaning, with new words and I am using this book. You could also use this. You know the name of the book now. You could look it up and actually refer to this book for any detail on kanji. It is a very detailed book and gives lot of information. Now, we have some new kanji words for you over here. These words you have just done in this class. One is ashta. If you remember we did this kanji character nichi and we also did this kanji character ski. So, nichi and ski together make one character and again nichi over here make it ashta. So, please ashta. Now, there is a reason for doing this. There are certain words which you should remember as words only and not just as simple kanji characters. They are written together, done together and easy to recognize. So, these are some words over here. You have also done ima means now and nichi again ima nichi now meaning today. This is hi de, ima means now, now, de, today. So, this means kyou. Today is kyou, kyou, today. Then we have kino. There is another word given over here again nichi over here together and nichi again means hino yesterday. So, these are three characters which you must know ashta, kyou, kino or kino, kyou, ashta. These are given over here tomorrow, today and yesterday. Now, we have some simple kanji for you. This is interesting. When you look at this character, what does it remind you of? Can you guess what it is? All of you, you think what it would be? Well, this character is this over here. This means kuchi. Kuchi means mouth and I will show you the slide also. Mouth is like this. Well, my drawing is not good. So, well, you have to show it in lines like this in lines and it will come like this, 1, 2 and 3. So, it is a three stroke character kuchi as is given over here. Mouth and then we have simple kanji me. Me is eyes as you can see and if you look at eyes, it is like this. So, well, just turn it and try to show it in lines and this is how it is going to come me. So, when you look at this character, it will always remind you of eyes like this. So, please remember that these are some of the simpler kanji which you can actually visualize and see. But they do become very difficult also and difficult to understand sometimes. Well, now if you look at this slide over here kuchi, you can see and this is the stroke order of the character. So, you have 1, you have 2 and then you join it like this and all your kanji characters should end in the lower right corner of the block always. It is easy to go to the next character after that and then we have me as I told you just now. Just turn it and you will get me. Now, the stroke order is 1, 2, 3, 4 and then you have the last language is 5 going in the end of the lower end of the block. So, this is how me is to be done. Now, from today, we will also do hiragana as that is also very important and integral part of the language. So, I will try to first draw the hiragana characters for you, make them over here for you and then we will do it on the slide. So, please try to make them at home. The stroke order is given over here. You can look at the stroke order and draw it in exactly this manner. There will be times when maybe my stroke order is not as it should be. So, I do not want you to learn it the wrong way. Please look at the stroke order and learn it as it is given over here. So, the stroke order is very clearly given. Please practice in this manner at home a, e, u, a and o. All of it is here for you. You can see it at one glance and practice. There are some words with kanji characters. You can use them in your conversation. You can use to make sentences. You can learn these words. They are important. They are interesting kanji over here. Easy to memorize. So, try to learn them. Jinko, iriguchi. The meanings are given over here. You can please go through the meanings. Deguchi, hitome, akarui, imagoro, kotoshi, kongetsu, suitachi. So, these are some new kanji characters. Words, you have already done most of them, but the kanji is a new. So, you can remember those. This is vocabulary that we are using in the lesson. Yamanobori and the meanings are given here. Yamanobori, ryokou, eiga, natsu yasumi, yachting, shumatsu, bijutsukan, boringu, puuru, modorimasu, renshuu. And now of course, your work begins. You have to do all this at home. Whatever you have done today, you need to practice with your partner or practice loudly at home, so that you can remember and not forget what we have done. These are some dates given from a calendar. You can look up any calendar for that matter and practice with your partner by inviting them to do various things during summer vacations or during holidays or anytime during the week. Over here, lot of things are given. You can practice that with your partner. Then, we have a small radio conversation. Listen to the radio conversation. Arun san, mai-nichi nan-jikan benkyou shimasu ka? Sou desu ne, asa roku-ji kara ku-ji made desu. Ban wa benkyou shimasu ka? Ie, goji kara hachi-ji made shimasu. Sou desu ka? Ja mai-nichi roku-ji kara benkyou shimasu ne? Sou desu. Listen to the conversation and answer the questions given here. Now, there is another assignment which is basically Kanji characters are given over here and you have to choose the correct reading for the Kanji characters. Match the Kanji characters in column A with readings in column B, which I am sure you are used to by now. Do it properly and whatever you are unable to do, we will try to do it in our next lesson. Next time, till then, mata-aimashou. I keep using this all the time in class. You can use this phrase after you finish class to anyone, to the students. You can also use this phrase when you are partying in office, mata-aimashou if you are going to meet the person tomorrow or you can also say that to a friend. Anywhere you are going to meet the person after a while, mata-aimashou. Let us meet later sometime. That is what it means. So, well, minasan mata-aimashou, kore de owarimasu. Arigatou. Thank you very much.
