Practice Making Plans in Japansk
Making plans is one of the most useful real-world Japansk skills: it requires future tenses, time expressions, suggestions, and the gentle back-and-forth of agreeing on a place. This scenario rehearses the entire planning conversation — proposing a day, suggesting an activity, picking a time and place, and confirming via text. You'll practise the Japansk verbs for 'to suggest', 'to agree', 'to prefer', and the polite phrasing that lets you decline a suggestion without offence. By the end you'll organise an outing in Japansk as easily as you would in English.
Sample Japansk conversation

Yes, I'm free! What did you have in mind?新しい美術展に行くか、あの新しいレストランを試すか、公園でのんびりするのはどう？
We could go to the new art exhibition, try that new restaurant, or just hang out in the park. What sounds good?美術展面白そう！どこでやってるの？
The art exhibition sounds interesting! Where is it?市立美術館でやってるよ。朝10時開館で、土曜は入場無料なんだ！午前中に行く？
It's at the city museum. It opens at 10 AM and it's free on Saturdays! Shall we go in the morning?午前中でいいよ。10時に会おう。
Morning works for me. Let's meet at 10.

Vanlige spørsmål
How do I suggest going somewhere in Japansk?
Use the conditional or 'shall we' construction — 'How about going to…?' — which is softer than the imperative.
How do I politely decline a Japansk invitation?
There's a face-saving formula — 'Thanks, but I can't on Friday — could we do another day?' — that doesn't slam the door. The scenario rehearses it.
What's the Japansk for 'let's meet at 8'?
A specific construction with the time prefix — included in the vocabulary list.
How do I confirm plans last-minute in Japansk?
Short texts in Japansk use a contracted style. The scenario shows the casual register: 'Still on for tonight?' style.
