Do you struggle to express complex ideas in Japanese?
Do you find yourself stuck in conversation, unable to move beyond the basics and speak naturally and confidently, like the intelligent adult you are?
If this sounds like you, Japanese conditional forms are probably to blame.
Conditionals are really common in Japanese. They’re used all the time!
And they’re tricky because they don’t have direct comparisons in English. This can make them seem interchangeable to English students, but… they’re not!
If you struggle with Japanese conditional and hypothetical forms, then I’ve got news for you…
You’re not alone!
In fact, Japanese learners from Houston to Hokkaido have a hard time learning to use conditional forms and structures the right way in Japanese.
So many Japanese learners end up caught in this trip, unable to express conditional and hypothetical ideas in a way that sounds natural and makes sense to native speakers.
What’s more, there’s A LOT of conditional forms to learn:
- How to express constant results 春はるになると桜さくらが(咲さく / 咲さきます)
- How to express actual conditions 雨あめが降ふると涼すずしく(なる / なります)。
- How to express sequential actions in the past 新幹線しんかんせんに乗のると富士ふじ山さんが見みえ(た / ました)
- How to express hypothetical conditions
- With examples of verbs which replace the last u with eba
- With I adjectives (replace the last い with ければ)
- With na- adjectives and nouns (attach であれば)たら
- How to express one-time / particular results with actual and hypothetical conditions なら
- How to express contextual conditions ケンが行いくなら僕ぼくも(行いく / 行いきます)
No wonder memorising each one and choosing the right one to use in conversation is the stuff of Japanese nightmares!
But fear not…
Help is at hand!
I’ve created a unique 30-day challenge, "Conditionals Made Easy", that will help you learn and internalise the Japanese conditional forms, so you can use them confidently and correctly in conversation with native Japanese speakers.
No more boring grammar textbooks.
No more memorising rules.
And most importantly...
No more frustrating Japanese mistakes when you chat with your Japanese-speaking family and friends.
Introducing the July Challenge:
"Conditionals Made Easy"
With…
Here’s how the challenge works.
The challenge is based on an exciting original story in Japanese that develops over the 30 days of the challenge.
This is a brand new story, written exclusively for this 30-Day Challenge.
We’ve created the story to be jam-packed with examples of Japanese conditional forms.
Every day, you’ll receive one new chapter of the story, along with a short video lesson and simple exercises to help you understand how Japanese conditional forms work in the story.
It'll take you about 15 minutes each day.
All you have to do is show up every day…
Over the course of the month, the daily immersion will help you absorb the conditionals naturally, until you "just know" instinctively how they work.
The result is that you'll be able to speak and understand Japanese confidently and use the correct conditional forms every time.
You'll use Japanese conditional forms freely and fluently, because...
1) You'll instinctively know which conditionals to use...
2) The Japanese conditional forms you need will already be where you need them - on the tip of your tongue!Here's What's Included...
The concept is beautifully simple!
Every day, for 30 days, you’ll get:
- One 250-word chapter of our Japanese story (jam-packed with examples of essential Japanese conditional forms in context)
- The written story plus audio book (so you can read or listen...wherever you are!)
- An insightful daily video lesson with our instructor, Mandy. (She'll explain the different conditionals used in the story)
- A short daily practice exercise (to help you remember what you’ve learned)
- Discussion with dozens of fellow challengers in our interactive Facebook group (so you can discuss the story and get answers to questions).
We’ve carefully structured the entire 30 days, so all you have to do is turn up and get stuck in!
