OKINAWA

(Stripes Okinawa)

A meal always is better and fills you up when enjoyed with friends.

When you finish your meal, be sure to say “I’m full” to your Japanese friends to show your satisfaction.

Today’s Japanese phrase:

“Onaka ippai desu!” お腹いっぱいです! = I’m full!

“onaka” お腹 = stomach, “ippai” いっぱい = full, “.. desu.” ・・です。= .. is ..

Have a nice meal with your dear friends!
