Difficult pronouciation for Japanese
Since I started learning English with Coach Shane @Shane Peterson , I've realized that difficult pronunciation for Japanese learners isn't just the R and L sounds—it's also the O sound. This was quite a shock to me because I never thought the O sound was one of my weaknesses. But recognizing your weaknesses is the first step to improving your English!! Which word do you find the most difficult to pronounce?

That’s true, but it’s completely normal that if a certain sound doesn’t exist in your language, you won’t be able to pronounce it correctly until you get used to it and train your mouth muscles through repeated practice. I don’t remember specific words that were the hardest—there were many, for sure—but there are words I just don’t like to use because of their sound, for example, “unfortunately.” I don’t like the sound of it, so I try not to use it and replace it with “sadly.” Do you have words that you don’t like to use for some reason? @Mie Tsuzaki
Places I Could Stay Forever — #1: Imaicho ❤️
This isn’t a reconstructed “old town” polished for tourists. It’s real. Lived-in. Breathing. Over 500 wooden houses from the Edo period line a quiet 2-kilometer grid of narrow streets. Dark timber facades, latticed windows, and softly creaking doors tell stories of merchants, craftsmen, and centuries of everyday life that never quite left. There are no neon signs here. No rush. Just the warm glow of lanterns at dusk, the faint scent of wood and tatami, and the feeling that time has decided to slow down—just for this place. Imaicho isn’t just preserved. It endures. And that’s why I could stay here forever.

@Mie Tsuzaki Sure, it's a yukata. But as you know: “I'm an old woman, I'm confused! 🤣 Wow, beautiful! She looks really professional. 😍 I once tried dancing Bon Odori at matsuri—but I'm a terrible dancer. 😂

@Mie Tsuzaki That's true, but so far it looks more like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_NxIo6a6sHk
Relaxing Time😌
Have you ever tried aroma oils for your room or body? Today, I made a moisture-proof desiccant with essential oils at a workshop. There are so many kinds of aroma oils, and I chose three of them: orange, forest, and frankincense. It was such a relaxing time, which I really needed these days. My hands still smell really good. If you want to refresh yourself, please give it a try. You're going to LOVE it❣️

Orange, forest, and frankincense – sounds like a perfect combination. 👌 I use all kinds of oils (incl. aroma oils) for everything: as an ingredient in dishes, for supplementation (I choose oil-based supplements instead of tablets or capsules), for skin and hair care instead of lotions, as aromatherapy, I also often add a few drops of aroma oil to my vacuum cleaner filter. Oils are my good friends in everyday life. 🫠 By the way, what kind of workshops do you attend? @Mie Tsuzaki
Free talk May 31th
Thank you @Vio La for joining the live session❣️ It was great talking with you. Today, we talked about her travel experience in Japan, Coach Shane (our excellent English coach from another community on SKOOL), and ichigo daifuku 😆 Connecting with people from other countries sometimes helps us learn more about Japan ourselves! Learning English is so beneficial in many ways! I will have 2 live sessions every week, so please check the calender and join me when you can.
