Thank you for your feedback. I really love your teaching style as you offer me a lot of alternative phrases. Keyboards used in Japan are similar to those in Western countries. We type Japanese words using Romaji, specific combinations of alphabets, and then hit the space key, by which the words written in Romaji turn to Kanji, Hiragana, or Katakana. There are many Kanji that have the same pronunciation, so we hit the space key repeatedly until the right Kanji is shown.
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I understand that I should have written 'one of the most difficult countries.' Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
Dear Ellie_P, Thank you for correcting my writing as always! I agree with you that the noise is very irritating, so I only use it when I am out. I look forward to learning more from you! Best regards, Sae
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I understand that I should write 'I am on board with' as a cliché phrase and "practical." Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I understand that I shoukd have written 'to want to eat'. By the way, in general, it is said that focusuing on delicious meal is effective to reduce overeaitng. So, health workers don't recommend that people eat meals while watching TV. On the other hand, listening to relaxing music while having your food is effective in preventing overeating. Hence, I think that when ones want to avoid overweight, they should listen to relaxing music during meal times. I also listen to my favorite songs during meal time to enjoy delicious taste of dishes. Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I had tooth issues for the duration of my elementary and junior high school because I liked eating sweat treats. Consequently, almost everu year I visited dentists to treat dental caries. During this time, having good dental hygiene was not common yet, so it is common for people that they visit dentists after suffering from tooth decay. However, as population ages, healthy tooth was strongly emphacized to make the elderly healthy by the Japanese government. Little by little, the trend has expanded to middle-age, adults, and young adults. Now, an oral health promotion, which is that ones maintain 20 tooth until at the age of 80), is widely recognized to have a good health . Without healthy tooth, elderly people commonly have problems in biting food items. After I recognized the importance of healthy tooth at the age of 16, I regularly pay attention to keep my oral environment clean while brushing my tooth after every meal. Although the habit is somewhat nuisance, I can prevent dental caries. Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
It seems that Mrs. Chatterjee vs Norway hasn't been released yet in Japan. I'll wait for it.
I looked for Mrs. Chatterjee vs. Norway, but I couldn't find the Japanese title of this movie.
Thank you for your feedback and comments. I didn’t know about the info that Tokyo is the leafiest city in the world! Thank you for sharing this interest fact, too.
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as aleways. Tokyo is a city with a lot of skyscrapers, so I didn't know there was much greenery. As I go to Tokyo for work, I get the impression that there are a lot of buildings because I visit to the office. Looking at the Tokyo Metropolitan Government website, I found that they are developing the Tokyo Green Biz Project. They say they aim to create an environment where people can coexist with greenery, even in the metropolitan city. Next time I go to Tokyo, I'll pay attention to the greening of Tokyo. Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I meant "outlook" in appearance. I also try to look younger. There are now drugs available that stop balding, so I am taking them. Thanks to the medicine, my hair is still full and healthy even with mildly mixed gray hair. In addition, regular exercise gives me energetic and powerful atmosphere. So doing exercise is essential to make me active. As for cosmetics, I also apply skin care lotion to my face to slow down the aging of my skin. I don't think that I take plastic surgery, but I want to delay aging to maintain youthfulness. Thank you for corrections that are useful to me. Best regards, 5971mak
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. Yes, smartphones are very convenient because they make users access the intenet and download a variety of information at a glance. Once users understand the usefulness, it is difficult for them to have daily life without the gadgets. I also enjoy using my Android in daily life. Thank you for corrections that are helpful to me.

My husband doesn't use sunscreen. He says it's too much trouble.
Teacher Ellie_P Thank you for kind words as always. I understand that "ebook" is preferred. The ability to read is important, but teaching children how important it is is difficult. Smartphones are so convenient that children can easily find answers. I also repeatedly tried to encourage my children to read, but they don't like it. Currently, there are no critical thinking classes in school education in Japan. If we increase the number of lessons in which children engage in critical thinking while reading books, children may become more likely to read books. Thank you for corrections that are useful to me.
