But, it's a prerequisite（先决条件；前提） to have a command of（掌握；精通） the Japanese language before stepping into that country, since the whole society speaks Japanese and only a part of the population knows the English language.Anyway, because of the global pandemic that took the world by storm(席卷了整个世界), moving outdoors became limited. That's why, I made full use of technology at my disposal(在我手上) to learn the language.The first thing I did was to become familiar with the Japanese Language. I reckon(料想;估计;认为) it's an important step when learning any languages, right? Anyway, what I did was to listen to podcasts like JapanesePod 101 and News in Slow Japanese , which are audio files that I downloaded from the internet.Another step I did to have a good command of the Japanese language was to learn Hiragana with Mnemonics. Hiragana is the basic Japanese phonetic alphabet. Learning it may seem a difficult task at first, but it is a very important step for achieving Japanese proficiency(熟练；精通)Finally, I practiced my conversation skills by looking for an online tutor whom I was studying with at night and during the weekends, in the comfort of my home(在自己舒适的家里).currently, i'm on the ladder of becoming a proficient Japanese speaker and in due time(在合适的时候), I will go to Japan for further studies.

This is an advanced grammar point. Heads up.までもない (made mo nai) is an expression used to indicate that the speaker feels that it is not necessary to go as far as doing something, either because it is pointless or inappropriate to do so. It has a meaning that is similar to the English phrase “no need to”, “no need to go as far as” and “don’t bother to”. There is an idiomatic version of tis phrase いうまでもなく (iu mademo naku) that means basically “it goes without saying that…”

This phrase expresses the situation where something stops happening, or a state ceases to occur anymore. It is important to note that in order to use -なくなる something had to be taking place at some point. This phonetically is also the same phrase that is used to express someone passing away. However、 the Kanji used in this case is slightly different. The usage for that is 亡くなる.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themangasensei/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/themangasensei/Twitter: https://twitter.com/themangasenseiYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFyhPCVFsM_0D0YtoFFlkWwWebsite: manga-sensei.comMusic by Gizmo

にする (ni suru) is used to indicate that something has decided upon something. This can work with nouns and nominalized (words and phrases that have been converted into a noun) phrases. However, it is important to note that this grammar point can only be used when the thing that is being decided upon is under the subject or speaker’s control.

Twenty years ago, we all thought that starting a startup required a special and rare kind of talent. It was something you either had or you didn't. Today, founding and running a startup is considered more of a learnable skill. It has its own best practices,  industry standards, and common knowledge. And, in both startups and enterprises, I find it refreshing to talk to people who have succeeded by going against those industry standards. Peter Galante started what would become the wildly successful Japanese Pod 101 with no clear idea how to monetize and no clear business plan. He did, however, have a firm conviction that what he wanted to build had value and the people would flock to it. And he was right. Peter and I talk about how his unconventional business plan and his rejection of VC advice and standard best practices, actually resulted in a rapidly growing startup in a market protected from even his best-funded competitors. It's an interesting conversation, and I think you'll enjoy it.

I'm Tim Romero and thanks for joining me. Today, we're going to sit down and talk with startup founder and fellow podcaster Peter Galante, founder of Japanese Pod 101, and if you study Japanese, then you've probably already listened to more than a few of those episodes. When I went over to their studio for the conversation, Peter mentioned that he was actually a little bit nervous about coming on the show. That came as quite a surprise to me. I mean, I'm a friendly guy and I genuinely love learning about business models and taking them apart, you know, breaking them down into their individual movies parts, holding them up to the light to see how they work. I think that subject is endlessly fascinating and I learn something new every time I do it but that's my approach and not everyone thinks this way. Not everyone approaches startups as an exercise in business model design where you have a system of interacting components that need to be optimized in underserved markets that need to be served. Some people, in fact, probably more founders that are willing to admit it start out with a vision of what they want to be doing and then figure out how to backfit some kind of sustainable business model onto it. This is exactly what Peter has done and as we'll see during the interview, this is exactly what has not only led to the success of Japanese Pod 101 but it is also what is preventing even well-funded competition from entering this space. We also - and as a podcaster, this breaks my heart - we also talked about the ongoing and transformative shift from audio to video content. Oh, yeah, and Peter wanted to make sure I let you know that about the same time this podcast is released, Japanese Pod 101 will exceed 1 billion downloads. That's pretty impressive for something that started out as a hobby but you know, Peter tells that story a lot better than I can. So let's get right to the interview.

何しろ (nani shiro) is used when someone feels very strongly about some unusual or extreme situation. It is different from 本当に because 本当に simply means “really”, without any connotation of something extreme. 何しろ is close to the English expression “believe it or not”, “think what you may”, and “in fact”. Note that this expression is mainly spoken. Learn more at: Manga-sensei.com

Koto and Mono are two very popular nominalizers, but powerful opposites. Now that we know what mono is, we are ready to discuss the more common and maybe even more useful thing that is koto. Koto is an intangible "thing" like an idea, method, concept or something else of that nature.Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/themangasensei/?hl=enFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/themangasensei/Twitter: https://twitter.com/themangasenseiYoutube: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCFyhPCVFsM_0D0YtoFFlkWwWebsite: manga-sensei.comMusic by Gizmo

While this week we have been talking about greetings I have had alot of people requesting that I teach a little bit of colloquial slang, and though I am no native of Japanese, I am a grammarian and will grant your wish.
