A Japanese lesson for the beginning-intermediate level (Genki 2, JLPT N4.) In this video, we'll cover how to change verbs into their "potential" form - as in, how to say you can read or can eat or can't read or can't eat. Model sentences and vocab are all shown on the screen in kanji, kana, and English.

Please don't learn 100% of your Japanese from me! I'm a highly-experienced J-E translator and teacher of dance and theater, but a beginning level teacher when it comes to Japanese. It's also best to learn from a variety of sources (preferably native Japanese) and to hear the concepts explained by multiple people (again, preferably native Japanese).
