The Japanese Word of the Fortnight
とても (pronounced ‘totemo’) which means ‘very’, is the Japanese Word for Week 5 & 6 of Term 1. You can use ‘とても’ (‘totemo’) before adjectives. For example, if you would like to say, ‘I’m very well’, you can say とてもげんきです (‘totemo genkides’).
Thank you / ありがとうございます(pronounced ‘aligatoh gozaimas’) for your continuing support for our Japanese program.
