**①Improvement of Writing and Speaking**
こんにちは。I am Japanese. To study English, I am teaching Japanese in English. In this series, I will share my way of practicing N5 to Beginner and Intermediate level learners who want to review grammar by writing sentences.
This series also contains Speaking exercises for Beginner level. Usually, beginners have difficulty judging which topic is more important. From Japanese speaker’s viewpoint, I will choose the more important and skip the less important grammar topics. This way, you can save time. This could be considered a shortcut.
If you try to write your answer in accordance with the “②Instruction of Exercise” below and post them within “48 hours” from posting this thread, I will try to comment on and check your sentences. Although I cannot respond to all (Especially, off topic) because I have limited time, I will try to comment. Also, I welcome you to follow my SNS and Reddit account.
​
**②Instruction of Exercise**
If you are N5 Beginner level, start from “**Procedure 1”**. If you are intermediate level learner, see **“Procedure 2”**.
**“Procedure1 for Beginner Level”**
(Step1): Check “Vocabulary” meaning in the list from the below link.
(Step2): Check and understand “Grammar” from the below link.
(Step3):You can check “Speaking Practice Video” in the below link and get used to how to use appropriately this time grammar topic to make sentence. You can also check “Practice Sheet”. You can use it for your speaking practice.

​
(Step4): Writing Exercise:
(W1) Read “☆Basic Example Dialogue” between Person A&B below. The Dialogue contains Grammar Topic “Naiformない でください”.
(W2) Try to make your dialogue between Person A&B like “☆Basic Example Dialogue”. In your dialogue, please try to use this time grammar topic “Naiformない でください” appropriately. Millions of mistakes are necessary for improvement, so you do not have to hesitate.
N5 level learner, if you have difficulty to write Dialogue style sentence, it is OK to write single sentences with grammar topic and also OK to use only Hiragana. (It is easy-to-read to make space between word and word).
(W3) Post and share your dialogues in 48 hours from posting this thread.
​
**“Procedure 2 for Intermediate Level”**
(W4) Like below “☆Advanced Example Dialogue”, try to use this time Grammar topic **“**Naiformない でください**”** **at least once** and make your original Dialogue. In other words, if you just use the topic at least once, you do not have to use the topic anymore and you can make your dialogue freely. It is also OK to add more Person A&B part to make longer Dialogue.
(W5) Post your Dialogue in 48 hours from posting this thread.
​
**③Example Dialogues**
I cited below \[\*1\] sentence and translation from Page 110 in Minna No Nihongo Second Edition Elementary Japanese 1 Translation & Grammar Notes – English. To make dialogue structure, based on \[\*1\] sentence, I wrote \[\*2\] Response sentence as Person B’s line. I added “\[ \] My grammar interpretation”.
**“☆Basic Example Dialogue”**
A: ここで しゃしんを とら ない でください。 \[\*1\]
kokode shashinwo tora nai dekudasai
Please don’t take photographs here. \[\*1\]
\[Take a pictureとりiます: り has “i sound” in らrow らりるれろ. り becomes ら having “a” sound in same line. So, we can get とら(Naiform)ない でください。 \]
B: はい、わかりました。とりません。 \[\*2\]
hai、wakarimashita。torimasen
OK/Sure. I will not.
​
**“☆Advanced Example”**
A: すみませんが、この公園で、スケボーに乗らないでください。禁止されています。
B: そうですか。分かりました。
A: 渋谷駅のタワーレコードの裏に、スケボーに乗れる公園があるので、そちらを利用すると良いですよ。
B: 本当ですか。じゃあ、行ってみます。営業時間や、値段などは分かりますか。
A: ちょっとまってくださいね。電話で聞いてみます。
So, like this, if you add \[ \] explanation and English translation, it will be helpful to understand and check your sentences more accurately.

Hi. I recently learned how to read hiragana and katakana. Is that enough experience to start learning your lessons from L1-1?
A: すみません、この辺に野良猫に食べ物をあげないでください。
[excuse me, please don’t feed the stray cats in this area]
B: ああ、ごめんなさい。でもなんでですか?猫たちは可愛いのに。。。
[oh, sorry! But why? Even though they are so cute…]
A: 猫たちはここで食べられることがわかるようになると、友達を呼んで、しばらくしてから猫しか見えないことになっちゃいますよ。
[when the cats realize they can eat here, they’ll call their friends, and soon we’ll only be able to see cats (because there are so many)]
B: それは夢じゃない?絶対そんな景色を見たい。
[isn’t that the dream? I definitely want to see that]
A: じゃ、青島に行けばどう?
[well, how about going to aoshima?]
B: あの猫の島?行ったことある!めっちゃ気になっ
ていつかそんなところに住みたいなー
