Greetings is the 3rd skill (assuming read left to right) in the Japanese language course. It has 3 lessons and teaches some basic greetings.

Grammar Notes[]

さん[]

When addressing someone, we use the title さん [san] after their name to show respect. If you use this with someone's name, it won't translate into English.

Greetings such as hello and bye often come before a name in English, but they often come after a name in Japanese.
