So in Japanese we have imasu for living things and arimasu for non living things. Easy. People imasu. Chairs arimasu. But then the twenty first century shows up with one problem no textbook prepared for. Robots. They move. They talk. Some even apologize more than I do in Japanese class. If a robot walks across the room and answers your questions, is it imasu or arimasu?

I've just found an app for Android that gives you the text to type in japanese from the news articles and checks your input. It's called "News Typing Japanese" on the Play Store: https://zero2onemys.onelink.me/NlAZ/sqzscgxs You still have to setup the japanese keyboard on your phone in order to practice.
