Still Studying....

I got a new book! So far I am only on Chapter 2. Since I am studying on my own, it is nice to have Penelope as a study buddy (sometimes) :



Penelope: OK, I will quiz you now!

Me: Hey, I just got that book and am only on Chapter 2...how did you already read to the middle of the book?

P: It's so easy....when I open the book, I just turn to page 100. See?

Me: Uh, yeah. That's not how this type of book works. You really need to read it from the beginning to the end..... in order.

P: Technicalities! I will quiz you now on Chapter 7!

Me: *rolling eyes*

So far I have learned how to say hi and introduce myself and other basic niceties. Also, the days of the week. I will have to work some more on the numbers.....there numbering centers around 4 digits instead of the 3 digits. So 10,000 is a key unit instead of the 1,000 that we use. I liked learning about asking for and buying things! ha ha!

Ikura desu ka? (How much is it?)

Jyu Buraisu o kudasai. (Please give me ten Blythes. )

So far I am only on Chapter 2...there are 10 chapters in this book. I hope I can make it to the end of the book!
