[✐1. Adagio] Telling what you want to do. “I want to do this and that!” [00:06] Hello, everyone.  Let’s start. Repeat after me [00:11] 1.  study [masu form] > want to study → I want to study Japanese more. 2.  Play a game → I want to play a new game. 3.  eat → I want to eat Tempura. 4.  see/watch/look → I want to see a musical. 5.  go to bed → I want to go to bed soon/early. 6.  go → I want to go to Kamakura. 7.  listen/hear → I want to hear your story. 8.  buy → I want to buy a pair of headphones. 9.  drink → I want to drink Chu-hai*. (chu-hai= light alcohol drinks mixed with carbonated water etc. For details check out this link : https://www.tsunagujapan.com/10-japanese-chu-hai-you-can-buy-at-convenience-stores/ ) [02:28] Now, answer as follows. For example; Do you want to drink Japanese tea? No. → No I don’t want to drink. [02:39] Ready? [02:41  ] 1.  Do you want to practice Kanji? No. No, I don’t want to practice. 2.  Do you want to play baseball? No. No, I don’t want to play. 3.  Do you want to see a horror movie? No. No, I don’t want to see. [03:30] To be honest, those answers sound a bit harsh for Japanese people. When we want to politely say no, we probably say「Iie, chotto…」or｢iie, Iidesu. [03:45] For example, Do you want to play football/soccer? IIe, chotto…(well, I don’t’ know…). [03:52] Next is “I want to do nothing”. Repeat after me [03:57  ] 1.  Do you want to go somewhere? No, nowhere → No, I don’t want to go anywhere. 2.  Do you want to drink something? No, nothing → No, I don’t want to drink anything. 3.  Do you want to watch something on TV? No, nothing → No, I don’t want to watch anything. [04:55] By the way, when you want to suggest some kind of action, you’d better use ｢〜masenka｣, instead of ｢〜tai｣。 [05:05] For example, Do you want to come to my place?   :-( Why don’t you come to my place?     :-) ★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★★ 「あれもこれもしたい！」 [00:06] みなさん、こんにちは。では、はじめましょう。 Repeat after me [00:11] 1.  べんきょうします > べんきょうしたい → もっとにほんご  を べんきょうしたい です。 2.  ゲームをします > ゲームをしたい → あたらしいゲームをしたいです。 3.  たべます > たべたい → てんぷらを たべたい です。 4.  みます > みたい → ミュージカルを みたいです。 5.  ねます > ねたい → はやくねたいです。 6.  いきます > いきたい → かまくらにいきたいです。 7.  ききます > ききたい → あなたのはなしをききたいです。 8.  かいます > かいたい → ヘッドフォンを かいたいです。 9.  のむ > のみたい → チューハイをのみたいです。 (チューハイ= light alcohol drinks mixed with carbonated water etc. For details check out this link :  https://www.tsunagujapan.com/10-japanese-chu-hai-you-can-buy-at-convenience-stores/ ) [02:28] では、つぎのように、こたえましょう。 たとえば、 にほんちゃを のみたいですか。 いいえ → いいえ、のみたくないです。 [02:39] いいですか。 [02:41] 1.  かんじをれんしゅうしたいですか。 いいえ → いいえ、(れんしゅう)したくないです。 2.  やきゅうをしたいですか。 いいえ → いいえ、した Support the show=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*=*= Need more translation & transcript?
