Japanese Swotter - Speaking Drill + Shadowing
Are you learning Japanese and looking for more opportunities to speak? This Podcast drill is exactly for you. Simply repeat after me - while you are commuting, cooking or even in your bed. The drill also includes plain style dialogue, which is an informal style spoken in daily life among friends and family, and also in Anime. Now more shadowing practices are available, too. Have a go and get fluent soon! --- Learning Nihongo is fun, ne. More drills and full transcripts/translations (on your smartphone! + PDF) are available on Patreon.
