Practice asking for help, booking appointments and checking details at shops or public service counters.
Practice polite replies, clarify instructions and prepare questions for work or school.
Explore local manners, everyday rules, community events, seasonal traditions and useful places nearby.
Discuss why expressions are used and how words and customs may be understood.
Online learners can also explore Japanese culture and prepare for situations they may encounter in Japan.
