Visitors to this great land of ours really need to know how to handle themselves in certain everyday, quintessentially American situations. The problem, of course, is that they may not know the correct vocabulary to employ in such situations.
I don't know about you, but I have often fretted on behalf of, for instance, young Japanese women who haven't enough time for both toning up their bods and their English before coming here on vacation.

ReplyDeleteDoesn't anyone speak the other language? I want more subtitles...this has mini-series written all over it...

ReplyDeleteok, maybe not
all I have to say is that these videos (yes there are more) have really added something special to my workout routine.
You know, it really makes me wish that I'd kept up on my Japanese. Then maybe I'd understand the parts that don't have subtitles.
