①Improvement of Speaking and Writing
こんにちは。モトです。I am Japanese and I am teaching Japanese. In this series, I will share my practice way for N5 Beginner and Intermediate level learners who want to review.
If learners are studying Japanese only for JLPT as test preparation, it might be difficult to improve speaking and writing Japanese actually, because the test does not cover Speaking and Writing. Thus, we set a Goal to improve Speaking and Writing in this series while learning JLPT N5 Beginner topics.
Features and Advantages
・While using Practice Sheet, we try to remember Question and Response sentences as Dialogue to learn how to use word and grammar. (Using story or dialogues, it could be easier to remember them efficiently.)
・It is also good to partially hide some words in tables in Practice Sheet by hand to check your progress or you can also change part of words and make another sentence like improvisation music.
・After Speaking, through making your sentences, you can improve Writing. (Based on your sentences, it is good to make your Practice Sheet and play Dialogues with other learners.)
・I will apply Minna no Nihongo to speaking and writing practice that covers almost all topics introduced by Genki so Genki user can also use this series.
(I will cite English translation from the textbook as it is, or I try to translate some expressions by myself. Now I am also learning English so my translation and explanation could be not correct or not natural, sorry for that.)
②Instruction of Exercise
Before Speaking & Writing exercises, check vocabulary and grammar.
Step1 Vocabulary
To get rid of すてます sutemasu
thesis, essay ろんぶん ronbun
Step2 Grammar
So, Today’s grammar topic is “Noun1は + Noun２が with Relative Pronounを + Verb”.
I cited below [*1] sentence and translation from Page 140 in Minna No Nihongo Second Edition Elementary Japanese 1 Translation & Grammar Notes – English. To make dialogue structure, based on [*1] sentence, I wrote [*2] Question sentence as Person A’s line. I added “[ ] My grammar interpretation”.
“☆☆Basic Example Dialogue”
A Bさんは なにを かいましたか。 [*2]
bsan wa nanio kaimashitaka。
What did you buy, Bsan?
B ミラーさんが すんでいた うちを かいました。 [*1]
miraasanga sundeita uchi wo kaimashita。
I bought the house where Mr. Miller used to live. [*1]
[Full sentence is…
わたし(Noun1)は ミラーさん(Noun2)が すんでいた うちを かいました。
すんで（Teform）いました becomes すんで(Te) いた（Plain Style, Past Affirmative）as Relative Pronoun. We can use the pattern “Noun1 は + Noun2が with Relative Pronounを + Verb”. The subject of whole sentence is わたし that has particle は and わたしは corresponds to かいました that is verb of whole sentence.
In side of Relative Pronoun, the subject is “ミラーさん=Noun2” that has particle が. To distinguish these Subjects, I think we tend to use が particle for a subject inside of Relative Pronoun.]
Step3 Speaking Exercise
Watch the video. You can use Speaking Practice Sheet.

Step4 Writing Exercise
(W1) Read the above “☆☆Basic Example Dialogue” between Person A and B. The Dialogue contains Grammar topic in each time.
(W2) Try to make your dialogue between Person A&B like “☆☆Basic Example Dialogue”. In your dialogue, please try to use this time grammar topic “Noun1は + Noun２が with Relative Pronounを + Verb” appropriately. Millions of mistakes are necessary for improvement, so you do not have to hesitate.
N5 level learner, if you have difficulty to write Dialogue style sentence, it is OK to write single sentences with grammar topic and OK to use only Hiragana. (It is easy-to-read to make space between word and word).
(W3) It is good to ask your teacher or Japanese friends to correct your sentences.
“For Intermediate Level Learners”
(W4) See the below “☆Advanced Example Dialogue”. Like the example, try to use this time Grammar topic “Noun1は + Noun２が with Relative Pronounを + Verb” at least once and make your original Dialogue. In other words, if you just use the topic at least once, you do not have to use the topic anymore and you can make your dialogue freely. It is also OK to add more Person A&B part to make longer Dialogue.
“☆Advanced Example Dialogue”
A: チンさんは何を飲んでいるんですか。
B: チンさんは ベンさんが 入れた お茶を 飲んでいますよ。ベンさんは日本茶が好きで、お茶を入れるのも凄く上手いんですよ。よく、日本のお茶の名産地に出かけて、お茶をお土産に買ってきてくれますよ。以前、佐賀県の嬉野のお茶をいれてくれて、凄く美味しかったです。
A:へー、いいですね。今度私も、ベンさんに頼んでみます。
So, like this, while using Today’s grammar topic, write your dialogue and if you add [ ] explanation and English translation, it will be helpful to understand and correct your sentences.
