キク日本語

    As its name suggests, the YouTube channel キク日本語 is geared towards those who want to work on their listening skills. Azusa, the host, introduces topics related to Japanese language and culture in easy-to-understand Japanese. She explains that the reason her videos are entirely in Japanese is that as a language learner herself (studying French, German, and English), she believes that Japanese learners will progress much faster this way.

    Although her channel has only been around since the middle of May, she has produced videos covering a wide range of topics. For those who are interested in the cultural component, she has videos on aspects of Japanese culture like anime, hanami, zen principles, and more. There are also videos on Japanese language where she unpacks the usage of different phrases. She believes that everyone has time for five minutes of language study a day. If you can spare the time, give it a look!
