📅 DAY 6 – “FLUENCY UNDER FIRE”

Let’s keep you fully immersed, thinking and responding in Japanese, building true confidence and fluency from the ground up.

Main Objectives:

  • Finish & test yourself on Minna Lesson 2
  • Begin Lesson 3 — Action verbs, destinations, and time
  • Simulate daily life in Japan (stations, stores, convos)
  • Go full-speed shadowing & speaking
  • Activate auto-Japanese response in the brain

🕒 TOTAL STUDY TIME: 7–8 HOURS​

💥 Break it into focused blocks with a few recharge + movement breaks (pomodoro-style or 90-min blocks)

🧭 PLAN BREAKDOWN​

1. 🧠 Grammar + Verb Foundation: Start Lesson 3​

Time: 90 mins Main Concepts:

  • 行きます／来ます／帰ります
  • ～へ／に 行きます
  • Transport: 電車で／バスで／歩いて
  • Time expressions: 毎朝、来週、日曜日、9時に

✅ Tasks:​

  • Practice 15+ “I go to PLACE by X at TIME” sentences

  • Combine with places around you or fantasy:

    • “日曜日に秋葉原へ電車で行きます。”
    • “毎朝8時にコンビニへ行きます。”

✍️ Writing:​

  • Journal 5–8 lines: What will you do tomorrow, when, how?
  • Speak it aloud to simulate daily convo

2. 🎧 Shadowing: Fast + Furious Edition​

Time: 60–75 mins Use shadowing audio (Minna CD, YouTube channels, or app like JLPT Stories or JapanesePod101)

Shadow Routine:

  • Shadow L1 & L2 at normal speed
  • Slow speed → Normal speed → Fast imitation speed
  • Bonus: record & play back your own voice

Example Sources:​

3. 🎮 Live in Japan: Sim Mode​

Time: 60 mins Environment Simulation (Pick 2 or more):

  • Set PC/Phone language to Japanese
  • Watch a Japanese vlog, mukbang, or “A day in Tokyo” video → imitate speech
  • Listen to a train ride background with station stops
  • “Order” at home: roleplay コンビニ、カフェ、駅 interactions

Examples:​

  • “いらっしゃいませ〜”
  • “すみません、トイレはどこですか？”
  • “コーヒーを一つください。”

4. 💬 Speaking / Roleplay Practice​

Time: 60–90 mins

Challenge:​

  • Record a self-intro monologue (~30 seconds–1 min)

    • Meeting someone new: “はじめまして…”
    • Asking for directions
    • Inviting a friend to go somewhere using ～ましょう

Bonus 🔥: Try a convo with AI bot or HelloTalk partner​

(you’ll mess up → good. Fix it, improve, grow)

5. 📚 Review + Flashcards + Kanji​

Time: 60 mins

  • Anki: review L2 + L3 vocab (add cards w/ audio + image if possible)
  • Learn 5–10 new beginner Kanji + radicals

🌟 IMMERSION DAILY HABITS (Keep stacking)​

  • Watch 1 anime / YouTube vid with JP subs
  • 10 min “talk to yourself in Japanese”
  • Journal: write what you did today + what you’ll do tomorrow
  • Think in Japanese during small daily moments

💪 End-of-Day Challenge:​

Record 1-minute monologue:

“日曜日に何をしますか？どうやって行きますか？誰と行きますか？”

You're building a Japanese-speaking version of you. Every day you get sharper, stronger, more fluent. Keep going — your future self in Tokyo is cheering.
