Mission 10 · Completing a day of travel in a foreign language

This is a review and application lesson where you recall and use what you've learned. Look at the meaning first and say it, then check the answer and pronunciation. The は in 私は is pronounced 'wa' when it's a particle. Ending the sentence with です makes it polite. よろしくお願いします is often used to politely say 'Nice to meet you' when meeting someone for the first time. You can make a request by adding をください after a noun. The particle を is read as 'o'. お会計お願いします is an expression used to ask for the bill after a meal. In これは, これ points to something nearby. いくら is used when asking the price. 使えますか means can I use it? 切符 means 'ticket' and 一枚 means 'one sheet'. どこで asks about the location of an action. For 空港, pronounce くうこう with a long vowel. ここで止めてください is useful when getting off a taxi; for buses, get off at designated stops. 名前で予約しています means a reservation under that name. Distinguish between チェックイン (check-in) and チェックアウト (check-out). In パスポート, the ポー is pronounced long. Add お願いします to make a polite request. もう一度 means once more, ゆっくり means slowly. わかりません is used when you don't understand, わかりました is for when you understand. 書いていただけますか is a polite request to write something down.
