　In this video, we focus on the meanings and practical usage of Kanji through these 3 steps.

🎓Ako’s Mini Lesson

1. Let’s learn vocabulary in pairs! 　

　In this video, several Kanji with opposite meanings appear. Learning them in pairs makes them much easier to remember!　

• 古（ふる）い / furui = Old
  ↔️ 新（あたら）しい / atarashii ＝ New
• 少（すく）ない / sukunai ＝ Few
  ↔️ 多（おお）い / ooi = Many

　　

2. Be careful with the difference between “少ない” and “少し”!
　

少ない / sukunai (Adjective / い形容詞)

• Example: 日本（にほん）に 来（き）たばかりですから、まだ 友（とも）だちが 少ないです。
  ［　I just arrived in Japan, so I have few friends yet.　］

• 少し /sukoshi (Adverb / 副詞)
  • Example: 漢字（かんじ）を 少し 書（か）くことが できます。
    ［　I can write a little Kanji.　］
