☆☆☆ GRAMMAR NOTES ☆☆☆
1. You may do (verb) [VERB-te mo ii desu]
2. You must not do (verb) [VERB-te wa ikemasen]
3. Continuing action from past to present [VERB-te imasu]
4. Habitual action [VERB-te imasu]
5. I don’t know. [shirimasen]
**DISCLAIMER**
These lessons are based from the Minna No Nihongo Textbook (1st edition), which I chose because I’m familiar with it. But even if you don’t have the textbook, you can still follow along the lessons by just watching the video.
I'm not a native Japanese speaker nor am I a Japanese language teacher. I'm currently living in Japan and I use Japanese at work and daily life. I’m sharing what I’ve learned from my language school and through self-study. I’ve passed the JLPT N3 exam and am planning to take the JLPT N2 test in the future. So if you find any mistakes, feel free to let know so that we can all learn together. Thank you!

**AMAZON LINKS**
I cannot find the links for first edition, but I found the links for the latest edition of the textbooks which are pretty much the same as the first edition:
LESSON 1-25
Minna no Nihongo Shokyu 1 Honsatsu (Everyone's Japanese Beginner 1 Textbook 1) 2nd Edition

LESSON 26-50

sensei, you're an angel for my Japanese self-study. If I didn't find your videos, I'd be at a lost during this crazy pandemic. Thank you so much. Please make videos for N4 too.

[@ViNoDKuMaR-sf8zr]

Thanks for your education and i have learning nihon go using your videos ,,,i request please provide Japanese verb list if possible.🙏

[@oldmanandthesea7039]

I love your videos. They are very helpful. Just one suggestion. If the order of lessons was from lesson 1 on top to lesson 25 at the bottom, it would be easier when I use the auto play feature. For example, when I finish listening lesson 15, I would expect next lesson to be lesson 16. But the auto play function would start playing lesson 14 which is the “next” lesson below( in youtube’mind) In general, people would start lesson 1 first and advance to lesson 2 and so on. So having lesson 1 on top of the list and lesson 25 at the bottom is a more natural order. Great work!

[@NihonGoal]

Arigatou! You're right. I arranged them now so it's easier to autoplay.

[@sauravpandey9188]

I'm leaving a comment here cause when I'll finish my JLPT N5 in upcoming months, I'll remember your videos 😁😁

[@HugoPerez1]

Im really having a hard time wrapping my mind around the difference among the uses of ています　when it means "-ing" lesson 14 and when it means "have been doing" this lesson for example ill take one sentence from this lesson. If I want to say "He is getting married" or "he is married" (and continues to do so) they both translate to the same (I think) かれはけこんしています Any tips on understanding this? ありがとうございます！

Thank you for your videos, they help a lot. I have a question about しっています、in the video it sounds like "shittemasu" , but not shitteimas (like it's written). Why is it so?

[@NihonGoal]

When speaking the い sound is often drop especially on casual conversation.This will be discussed in lesson 20. I sometimes forget to enunciate properly. But if pronounced properly it can be shittēmas (with a long e sound) or shiteymas. 😁
