It’s almost summer here on the island. Now is a good time to hit the beach and enjoy water activities. But there are several things you need to pay attention to such as box jellyfish. So today’s phrase is…

“Habukurage ni chuui shimasho”, which means “Watch out for box jellyfish.”

(“Habukurage” – box jellyfish, “ni” – a proposition to put after a noun which functions as an object, “Chuui” – attention, shimasho – let’s do, “Chuui shimasho” – watch out for/be cautious of)

Ok, stay safe and see you all in the next episode of Speakin’ Japanese!
