 Is it an “R” sound? Or “L” sound? Neither? Or maybe both? There are some sounds unique to Japanese that are hard to translate but that goes both ways! This episode looks at how certain sounds are identified and pronounced between Japanese and English.
「R」の音?それとも「L」の音?どっちでもない?それとも両方?日本語には翻訳が難しい独特の音がいくつかありますが、それは両方の意味で当てはまります。このエピソードでは、日本語と英語の間で特定の音がどのように識別され、発音されるのかを話していきます。是非最後までお楽しみ下さい!!

 Listen extra closely as we messed up our audio for the “hard-to-pronounce-sounds” episode ! ごめんね!!
