    This time we'll learn everything you need when eating out at a restaurant.
    We'll learn what to say to order food, pay the bill, ask for the smoking / non-smoking area, ask for a vegetarian menu (and more!!) while learning the grammar.
    Waiters use "business" speech (keigo - the polite language) so we'll also take a look at the grammar.

    Misa's English is typically very normal foreigner English with nothing else other than the mother tongue accent. Then once in a while she surprises you with a really really British one like "press the bu'un" and it really hits the point home...

    This is INCREDIBLY helpful. Honestly, I've been studying Japanese on my own for the last 5 years, and this is the most thorough explanation of the cultural context and grammatical structure for polite speech that I've encountered. Thank you for taking the time to put this together and subtitle it. I'm hoping to spend three months in Japan this fall, and this has removed a lot of my nervousness about polite ordering and what questions to expect from restaurant staff.

    This is incredibly handy. Often books or guides will teach you how to order things, but then the staff will reply something in Japanese and you have no idea what they said and then it gets awkward and confusing and you have to go back to English.
    Super helpful that you went through what they are likely to say. Thanks Misa!

      In restaurant, like サイス(size) 飲み物(drink) etc
      Then I could get what that mean, even I didn’t understand the rest of the sentence

    I absolutely love how in-depth you go! It makes so much more sense when you break it down and explain the exact meanings, and implications, and feelings that go along with these words rather than just giving a list of phrases. There is a lot to study and learn here -- it isn't the quick and easy way -- but understanding those things even helps understand the nature of Japanese culture that you'd never get by just looking at a list of direct translations. The amount of info you convey in the subtitles is amazing, too. Coloring the corresponding words / parts of speech is very helpful for an English speaker like me in order to make sense of word order. Thank you so much!
