Welcome to Uki Uki NihonGO + Culture!



In our first lesson we introduce you to the word "sensei" which is used for people in many occupations, including our teachers, Akai-sensei and Kurahara-sensei!

You don't have to be a teacher to be a sensei. Lawyers, doctors and even manga artists are often called sensei too.

If you're curious about the name of our new series, the word "uki uki" is used to show excitement, so please use "uki uki shimasu" when you are excited about something!

We would like to hear from you! Please feel free to ask questions and comment on what you'd like to learn. We'll be creating Q+A lessons in the future!

Thanks for watching! See you next time! Dewa, mata kondo!
