VIDEO| Speakin' Japanese: Spring is just around the corner!
We're in the coldest time of the year. But early spring blossoms have already started blooming.
Lovely white Narcissus blossoms are at full bloom on Jogashima Island, a tiny island off the south end of Miura Peninsula, heralding the arrival of spring.
Today's Japanese phrase:
“Mosugu haru desune!” もうすぐ春ですね! = Spring is just around the corner!
“mosugu" もうすぐ = before long, "haru" 春 = spring, ".. desune" ですね =It is.., isnt'it?
You can also say:
"Mosugu tanjobi desune!" もうすぐ誕生日ですね! = Your birthday is around the corner!
"Mosugu shumatsu desune" もうすぐ週末ですね!= Weekend is around the corner!
