Makoto E-Zine series #82 Recommended for beginner to intermediate learners of Japanese. You can purchase the printed version on Amazon by clicking here.   Welcome to the December issue of Makoto! This month, we’ve packed in a delightful mix of learning and laughter to carry you through the winter season.  This issue also includes a beginner-friendly essay on the subtle differences between 気持(きも)ちがいい and 気分(きぶん)がいい, two expressions that often puzzle Japanese learners. These phrases may sound similar, but each captures a unique nuance. For example, 気持(きも)ち refers to physical or emotional sensations – that refreshed, cozy feeling when you settle into a hot bath. 気分(きぶん) , on the other hand, describes your overall mood or mental state, like when you say, “Today, I feel great!” to express a positive vibe. Simply put, 気持(きも)ち focuses on tangible feelings, while 気分(きぶん) reflects the broader mood. Understanding these subtle differences can make your Japanese sound more natural, and we’re sure you’ll find it easier than it seems. Dive in and enjoy this month’s exploration of Japanese language and culture, tailored to warm up your winter! ➡️ How to read the eBooks: You may need to follow the steps outlined in our eBook guide. ➡️ To purchase a digital or print version, kindly click the "Format" option below the product title.

Makoto E-Zine series #83 Recommended for beginner to intermediate learners of Japanese. You can purchase the printed version on Amazon by clicking here. Happy New Year from the Makoto Team! This month's cover features a stunning photo of 金閣寺(きんかくじ) (the Golden Pavilion) in Kyoto, captured just last month by our talented editor Neddy and her equally talented husband. Doesn’t it make you feel like taking a trip to Kyoto? Whether you've visited Kyoto many times or it’s still on your bucket list, this iconic sight is always awe-inspiring. Speaking of iconic, let’s talk about ラーメン. Did you know that while it’s considered one of Japan’s quintessential comfort foods, it actually has roots in Chinese cuisine? Our etymology feature dives into how those humble wheat noodles twisted and turned their way into Japanese hearts—and stomachs—over centuries. Here’s a teaser: Japan’s first ramen shop, 来々軒 （らいらいけん）, opened in 1910, and the rest is delicious history. But ramen isn’t just about slurping noodles—it’s about the culture that surrounds it. From regional variations to late-night ramen adventures (who hasn’t craved a steaming bowl after a long day?), it’s no wonder ramen is beloved worldwide. Have a favorite ramen topping? Egg, chashu, or maybe corn and butter? Whatever your preference, there's no wrong way to enjoy it. This issue is packed with goodies to start your year with a smile: jokes and puns, a deep dive into the prefecture of Okayama, the rhythmic charm of the onomatopoeia どきどき, and a fresh set of Japanese Readers for learners of all levels. Let’s ring in 2024 with laughter, learning, and maybe a steaming bowl of noodles by your side. ➡️ How to read the eBooks: You may need to follow the steps outlined in our eBook guide. ➡️ To purchase a digital or print version, kindly click the "Format" option below the product title.
