Recommended for beginner to intermediate learners of Japanese.
In this issue, we’ve packed a mix of content to delight and entertain you. You might even blurt out 「いとおかし！」 at points. Enjoy some laughs with our jokes, riddles, and puns, and expand your vocabulary with fun expressions. Our Prefecture Spotlight takes us to the scenic and historically rich Yamaguchi, while the Etymology section delves into the origins of マジ.
