Lesson 13 - Prepositions

P  R  E  P  O  S  I  T  I  O  N  S

Hello everyone,

Summer 🌞 is finally here.  No more tsuyu, rainy season 🚫☔... YAY!!

It's hot, but that's OK.  Turn on your air conditioner or fan, stay 🆒, and enjoy today's lesson.

Today's lesson is about prepositions (前置詞 zenchishi). And this is a very important lesson because prepositions take practice. For many students of all levels, prepositions are difficult 😓 But!... the good news is your friendly MKD tutors 😁 will help you understand prepositions better.

First a Warm Up! It's so hot today, Kokusai Course students, you don't need a warm up. But let's do one anyway!

Activity: 😽 The Cat & The Pots

Directions: Look at the cute cat pictures above. There are 9 of them. Make simple sentences for each of the the 9 Cat & Pot pictures. Tell your sentences to your MKD tutor.  The first one is done for you below.

Example: "The cat is between the (two) pots."

Advanced: Can you think of any synonyms (同義語 dōgigo) for the prepositions above? See the example below.

Example: "The cat is in the middle of* the (two) pots."

* in the middle of~ (A & B) is synonymous with between
